Settling in

Things I like about my new room at the Browns:

The little rag rug that Mrs Weasley gave me fits perfectly beside my bed. Mrs Brown said it's all right for me to have it, because no one will see it.

It's on the uppermost floor--not an attic, really. I think Mrs Brown said it used to be a governess' room. Since it's so high, I can see out my window for miles and miles. There is a little seat by the window, which makes it perfect for curling up there. Perhaps I can make some pillows for the window seat.

Mr Brown said it would be all right if I borrowed books from his library and kept them in my room until I'm finished reading them. He said they wouldn't be missed because no one reads them anyway (I think the library originally came from Mr Brown's father).

Nobody can hear me up here.

I'd be happy to send you some fabric to make the pillows, dear. What colours would you like?

What colour is your room, dear?

I'm afraid I don't know either, Luna. Perhaps...perhaps it's all being held in storage for you, until you're of age? You might ask the Browns to inquire for you.

Order Only

Oh, Arthur, I keep thinking of the day I went over there, right after Xeno was declared dead, and those vultures were already going through his things. Chucking them out the window, even! I'm so afraid that they destroyed it, or auctioned it all off.

Poor girl, to have none of her keepsakes from growing up...

And for her to say that having nobody able to hear her is a nice thing about her room!

Oh, how I wish things had worked out differently!

You may be very sure that we won't forget her, Molly, dear. We'll keep an eye on her, and make sure that she knows she's not alone in the world.

That sounds very lovely.
Especially the part about the view, and the seat by the window.

How do you know how to make pillows?
Isn't it easier to buy them?

But what do you make them with, do you use a charm?
Or do you really use needles and threads and things?

My friend Sally Anne makes bracelets and also folds animals out of parchment, and Draco can draw, and I don't think Harry makes anything and neither do I.
It sounds fun to try to make something but it would be disappointing to try and realise I wasn't much good at.

I don't know.
Only, do you remember the little animals that would run around the collar of your robes, and a lot of girls had them at the beginning of school?
They were called robe pets, and they were nice but the spells would wear off eventually?
Maybe I would like to make something like that, only bigger and it wouldn't live on your robes, but follow you around, and the spell wouldn't ever wear off, or at least not for a long time.

Hydra

Oh Luna,

I am so glad to hear that things are going well, even though we are so far away from each other. I can't wait till we can see each other again. Hopefully the Browns will let you come over sometime.

If not, at least we have the YPL trip to look forward too. Maybe we can share a tent together.

I miss you bunches.

That was nice. Do you think they will let you come over just because you want to and not just because they have something else going on?
