Well, the game we played was as characteristic as it always is, I think, especially when we have some of our dirtiest competitors on the Pitch. Captain, I must say, that was awfully nasty, even for Goyle. Gryffindor's Royal Monarch, of course, didn't do so bad on his saves, and Potter swooped in, as per usual. What's the team to do without you lads

The breadbox just seemed like a natural home for it.

I suppose the real question is whether your Natter actually likes it, isn't it? After all, if what the Captain says about all of those Natter rights is correct and whatnot, then your Natter should be able to choose where it sleeps. I think. This Natter thing is rather odd, anyway. I mean, mine prefers to go by Carl. Carl, Neville. Don't you think it's a rather odd name in of itself? So I suppose if yours likes it alright in a breadbox, it should be allowed to stay!

(Clearly, I am entirely weirded o-- new to this.)

Oh don't worry! Ginny converted me. It sleeps on my pillow now. But if it starts eating the sheets, that might change. I don't think it really liked the breadbox in any case.

Carl isn't that bad of a name. For a person. But Natters should be named...well I don't know what they should be named. I never named mine.

Carl (I can't believe I agreed to calling this thing CARL) seems unusally calm for one of these things. I mean, I've heard some of the racket in your guys' dorm, and only now do I realize that it might've been the various mishaps of these books! That is, it is the books, right, or are there just interesting animal noises from there all the time? What what?

I think I'm going to write to the Weasley Twins and seriously discuss this. It's weird, it's like they charmed the silly thing to come when it's called! What's next, is it going to start licking me and smearing ink all over its face? Because then, I might have to consider getting the thing a breadbox, after all.

Are we supposed to name them? How do you know what it's gender is?

[fancyaquaffle]

I don't really think so, but Angelina had this cheeky little note on the package that said, "Fred and George said it comes to Carl, and I hear it's rather vicious if you don't call it otherwise!" or something silly like that. I mean, the three of them are impossible. If Alicia had been there, it would've been worse. Might've been called something really silly and not very respectable at all.

Also, I have no idea what gender it is. I mean, all I know is that it comes to Carl. Fortunately, it has no gonads, or else we would have this mass procreation, which isn't respectable at all. Books mating with books! It makes me fortunate that the farm doesn't have any actual animals.

Books mating with books to create more books would make some people happy, *cough*ravenclaws*cough*, but I can see how a bunch of baby natters running around would be a problem.

I wonder how small they would be. Would they be Natter date books and nip at you when you do your homework? That may be good for some people and bad for others who like their limbs.

Carl is a magnificent, majestic, beautiful name.

That's easy for you to say, mate! What if Carl was a she? You might've made her confused!
