Daddy,

How are you? I hope you are well. I've been quite worried about you and mum, but I know you are probably doing a lot better than I imagine. I miss you terribly. And when I say that, I mean it twenty times more than you realise! School isn't the same. Everyone is too quiet and too reserved and it's just no fun. This marriage law has everyone quite upset, as I'm sure you know. You know how upset I am.

That's actually the reason I'm writing this time. I wanted to know what you truly think about this situation. Mum says that she feels bad for me, but I'm not sure if she really means it. Do you have any insight?

Love you,
Lavvy

Lavender,

It's good to hear from you and you have no need to worry about your mother and I; we are doing quite well. We are a tad worried about you, but that's to be expected. And we miss you just as much as you miss us, love.

Now, I have no idea what you're talking about with this. Has your mother said something to you to make you think she doesn't feel bad for your situation? If I remember correctly, she's only said that she hates the mess you're in. I'm curious to know where you get this feeling from.

Love,
Dad

Daddy,

No, she hasn't said anything to me directly. I have no idea. Maybe it's just a feeling? I mean, I know with her family background that she might be a little less inclined to be sympathetic for me and my situation. I was just wondering if she's said anything to you? I don't want to upset you or her with this, though, so if I'm being ridiculous I will drop it.

Love you,
Lavvy

Lavender,

You aren't totally off, sweetheart, but your mother always has your best at heart. You know that, right? She loves you and she just wants you to be safe and happy. In this situation, no one can be really happy, but you can be safe. Your mother fears that you may rebel against the Ministry and try to do something silly and end up getting hurt. We don't want that, Lav.

Now, as far as the actual marriage law goes, I think that your mother thinks things could be far worse. We've been trying to find some information about the boy you're arranged with, but we haven't come up with much more than the fact that his mother has had many husbands. Please don't worry too much about all of this, though.

We love you, Lavender. We want you to be happy and try not to worry through the next year too much. There's a lot more happening than this marriage law and as it is, you have quite awhile before anything has to happen. Who knows what could happen between now and then, yes?

I'm glad you wrote and I wish you would write more often.

Love,
Dad

	Daddy, I don't feel very good about you digging up dirt on Blaise or his mother. Frankly, I would like it if you just left him alone. We will approach each other in time, I think. I've noticed him looking at me and I think he's bound to make the first move. We don't know each other, so, it will have to happen. Love you, Lavvy (Reply to this) (Parent)
