((OOC: This letter arrives through the normal post office, with the exact appropriate postage, not by owl. Amazingly, it still arrives the day after it was sent.))
Lav,
I'm safe at my Gran's place. She had me weeding the garden and taking some of the plants to our small greenhouse almost as soon as I stepped over the threshold. Only the things she can't do anymore, which honestly isn't much. She's questioned me exhaustively about you, so much that I feel like I'm being interrogated. Still, all in all, it's good to be home, and to have a room to myself again, for a little while.
I'm supposed to go see my parents tomorrow, and apparently my dad has something special planned. I'm really looking forward to spending some quality time with them, and finally getting to know them, other than, you know, in pictures and stories from Gran.
Gran wanted to know if you and your parents would be available for dinner on the 23rd? If not, we'll see if we can't schedule that for after Christmas.
I can't wait to see you again. I miss you terribly. I had no idea how much that would hit, since I got used to seeing you everyday.
[hexed to Lavender only]
The Mandrakes are teenagers now, and they've been giving Gran no end of trouble. I'm pretty much sentenced to corralling them as long as I'm here. I'm hoping they settle down soon.

Love,
Neville
