    Mrs. Irina Skeeter,

    I'll be honest, I really don't know much about you afar from what my brother and family told me - some things a bit more negative coming from my father - however, I thought it would be best that I get to know my sister-in-law. I've heard you work for the Daily Prophet, just like my brother. Do you enjoy writing?

    I don't know if my brother has told you but I am still in school. A sixth year Ravenclaw, no doubt. So, I am rather interest to hear everything that you have to say.

    Also, congratulations and welcome to the family.

    Mr. Thompson Skeeter

    Dearest Mr. Thompson Skeeter,

    I am very pleased to have received this letter! I was really excited to meet all of Archie's siblings.


    I really do enjoy writing, though I admit that I only discovered that in my final year at Hogwarts. Hadn't that happened I probably would never work for the Daily Prophet, and probably never meet your brother as well!


    I have a sister currently at Hogwarts. Her name is Miss Charity Baddock and she is a Hufflepuff second year. I think the two of you should meet, since we are a family now!


    As for me, I was a Gryffindor during my school years. Not the best student, I must admit, but I suppose I still managed to finish Hogwarts. Do you have any plans for your future once you finish school?

    Mrs. Irina Skeeter

    Mrs. Irina Skeeter,

    Sometimes, the one thing you love, you don't realize until later on. I guess that is the whole joy of it.

    As for your sister, I don't know if I know her or not - chances are, I do not - however, I will see if I can write to her. It might be best if I get to know her, especially with us being rather close in age.

    My plans for after school - I was planning on working in the Ministry. Maybe as an Auror or Unspeakable, preferably the latter. I don't know why, but I do find that the Ministry is my calling. Then again, perhaps it is my father who installed that into me.

    Dearest Mr. Thompson Skeeter,

    You should definitely write to her. I am sure the two of you will get along perfectly!


    I am sure you would surely succeed in the Ministry. Both professions are a bit dangerous, but I am sure that this wouldn't stop you. Besides, I always wanted to meet an Unspeakable. I was always curious about what they seem like. Who knows, perhaps you could even encourage my little brother, Benjamin to become one as well. He is still so little, though. Not even a year old, actually. He might as well grow with my and Archie's children.

    Mrs. Irina Skeeter

    Mrs. Irina Skeeter,

    I will make sure that I do such a thing. Might be nice to have some company at times.

    I am hoping so. I do think an Unspeakable will be quite interesting, especially with what they might do. It is something which I look forwards to, especially because I think it will be enjoyable.

    You plan on having children with my brother?

    Dearest Mr. Thompson Skeeter,

    I am sure you would be an incredible Unspeakable. Who knows, perhaps you could even become the Head of the Department if you do your job well, which I have no doubt that will happen. But first, I suppose, you should focus on your OWLs. I am sure that they will not be too much of a trouble for a smart boy like you, but hard work is still important. I am sure that you will get lots of Os and Es!


    As for children, aren't they the reason people get married? Children are important so they can keep the family name, after all. But you should not worry about such things yet, as there are still quite some many years before you have children on your own.

    Mrs. Irina Skeeter

    Mrs. Irina Skeeter,

    You flatter me. I can see why my brother wished to marry you - you seem like a very generous figure. Ah yes, OWLS. I have been studying hard and trying to keep my head away from some of the nonsense that the other students are involved in. To be honest, I really don't know how the other students could be just chatting away. Then again, I have a good head on my shoulders and know better than to do that.

    Not all the time. Some people marry for love, though it is a pretty rare custom nowadays. I think for the most part, everyone seems to be betrothed and so forth. However, I will not worry about finding a potential wife yet - I am still so young, as you have stated. I wish to worry about my education and only my education. And when I get a job, I wish to worry about that.
