Well, I did say that I would update soon, didn't I? Here you go!

You must be mistaken. I am Albus Dumbledore. You must seem to think that I am Mr. Ronald Weasley instead. The fact that some of you think I am a time traveling Ronald is absolutely Huh? Someone say my name? preposterous! What does preposterous mean? He is a very gallant young man, but how can you possibly see any similarities between us? Can I have a lemon drop? I like lemon drops. Except for the fact that we both like lemon drops. And have holes in our socks. How did you know I have holes in my socks? Mr. Weasley, this is a magical school. I have my ways.
Sincerely,
Professor Dumbledore and Ron Weasley

People of Earth,
Do I really eat that much? Well, Seaweed Brain… I'm not asking you, Wise Girl. But seriously. Do I? I like to think that I consume a turkey leg in a couple minutes, not a couple seconds…
Wondering (as always),
Percy and Annabeth

I have recently been informed of a great problem. Which is? At Hogwarts, people sing. And? And, Di Angelo, it isn't real singing! How is singing not real singing? They sing a song, but everyone is singing differently. Shouldn't everyone have their own voice or something? I don't get where you're coming from.
NICO, ONE PERSON CAN BE SINGING TO THE TUNE OF THE HAPPY BIRTHDAY SONG, WHILE SOMEONE ELSE CAN BE SINGING LIKE THEY'RE AT A FUNERAL! IT'S NOT REAL SINGING! Okay! Jeez! That is all.
Will Solace and Nico di Angelo

I do not at all understand the house stereotypes. Being a Gryffindor myself I understand the ones about Slytherin, but I have come to realize that those too are biased.
Gryffindors are considered brave and loyal, but when have they ever been considered boastful or cunning? The Marauders (James Potter, Sirius Black, and Remus Lupin) were boastful, and Peter Pettigrew was cunning.
Hufflepuffs on the other hand aren't all pride and joy. When they're needed or want something, they can be as cunning as Slytherins (which is yet another stereotype). Cedric Diggory, for that matter, was very brave. Shouldn't he have been in Gryffindor? No. Because he was witty, cunning, and nice (he was a little more nice than everything else, but still).
Slytherins are a big stereotype. Probably the biggest, actually. Slytherins such as Tom Riddle and Bellatrix Lestrange (the famous, evil ones) cloud people's judgement, while people such as Draco Malfoy are forgotten. Hopefully after the war, people will realize this.
Then, there's Ravenclaws. Not all of them are smart and witty and only smart and witty. There are the thoughtful ones, and their thoughtfulness is what got them into Ravenclaw (Luna Lovegood is a fine example for this).
I know that this letter/complaint is excessively long, but it is a problem that I hope we can all overcome as one.
Thank you and best wishes,
Minerva McGonagall
That last letter was pretty long. It felt like I was writing an essay, but an essay for a good cause. It was fun none the less, so I wrote it!
I love writing these, and I'm so bummed knowing that there is only one chapter left… I'll try to update as soon as possible, if I get enough ideas *wink wink*. I know that this is a HUGE goal, but I want to get the chapter between 3,000 and 5,000 words. So you think we can do it? We can, only if I get enough reviews and ideas!
I have a mini poll for you. Please answer truthfully! Here it is:
When I finish the story, I should…
a) go over and edit it
b) go over and edit it, taking out the A/Ns
c) go over and edit it, making each letter its own chapter so there are over 100 chapters and you can see where the letters start and end easily
d) go over and edit it, making each letter its own chapter and taking out the A/Ns
e) do nothing to it and leave it without editing or anything
I personally am leaning more towards 'd' since there's a bunch of grammatical mistakes near the beginning, but you can choose whatever you want to! Thanks for being part of my mini poll, and I'll write you soon!
I almost forgot! I have a new story up called Dudley's Dream. It's currently a one shot, but I might add more chapters and make it a series of I get enough favorites, follows, and reviews! NOW I'll write you soon.
1 More Chapter (oh no!),
