"Are you always this forward?" He asked teasingly since it would be a very short thread if he just ignored her entirely. — Tobin Cartwright in Take A Peek
Did you know? Churchgoers and worshippers had to endure a foul stench during prayers due to the amount of bodies often stored within the vaults of churches and chapels.
She sent this right after going to bed with her own owl so it'll arrive in the super early morning of the 8th and right into his room probably.

Dearest Cash,
We have a new sibling! Who would have thought? Don't you worry, you'll never be replaced in my heart. What is the baby like? Does it look like Papa or Belphoebe more?
And how are you? I really miss you. Papa offered to sign me out on my November Hogsmeade weekend so I can meet our new sibling. Please promise me not to have any plans then so I can see you, too!
The baby doesn't really look like anyone yet; dark hair, though, so he could look like either parent.
I'm well. How are you? I'll try to be there for your Hogsmeade Weekend.
I'll admit that it's a bit of an adjustment to have a baby in the house; how are you adjusting to our new brother? I imagine it's strange to hear of him from school.
Dark hair? I see. I might no longer be the youngest, but at least I didn't lose my position as the one that looks adopted!
I'm well. Our brother's birth wasn't much to adjust to, seeing that I am at school and he hasn't yet done anything significant other than be born. I take it that it he is a noisy baby?
He's not going to dislodge you from my affections, and you're a much better Lestrange than I am.
He's... a baby. I'll be honest, I don't really know what to do with babies. I've been in to see him and he seemed quiet then, but maybe we just have a good nanny?
Good. I'd judge your taste in company if you suddenly preferred babies before me!
You're not such a terrible Lestrange, by the way. You're just going through a phase. I'm sure that when you quit Quidditch you'll make quite a name for yourself in the Ministry because you are smart. You could become a dueling intrsuctor for the law enforcement department. Or teach DADA here once Professor Sleptov resigns.
You're lovely, you know. I promise I'll settle into a real career when I stop being good at Quidditch - only an excellent career here, thank you, no plans to be one of the weird old men who sticks around too long.
Have you noticed that the baby has my middle name? I'm honestly not sure what I think about that.
I did notice that you have the same names. I suppose that our stepmother wanted to keep with the C names for Papa's sons and the other alternative she could think of was Calligula. Its His middle name is Lucius, so I suppose the entirety of it is an attempt to really hammer down the baby's position in our family. He's so much younger than the rest of us that it'll be hard to think of him as a brother, rather than a nephew. Valeria's children are older than him.
