"Do you think your birth parents know anything about Apophis?" Draco ponders that afternoon, in our private living room.
"I doubt it, but there are a few people we could ask..." He pops off the couch and grabs a quill, ink, and three sheets of parchment.

Dearest Marlene,
I am writing to you to ask about a being named Apophis. Have my parents, or any of their colleagues ever mentioned that name?
Much love,
Isla Delphine Beckett

Dear Sirius,
Tell me all you know about Apophis ASAP.
Will explain over Floo tomorrow at 8:00 am.
Truly,
Isla Delphine Beckett

Remus,
What have you heard of Apophis? Write back soon, I'll explain over Floo at 8:45 am tomorrow.
Kindly,
Isla Delphine Beckett

"What? You have a funny look on your face!"
"The moonlight makes your eyes look gorgeous..." he blushes.
"Thank you..."
