Julia is alive!!!! She's fine. And she saved my life. I am so proud because she used magic!
I was in the forest looking for her and.....
A drop bear jumped down from the trees and landed on my head. It was so scary. I really thought that was the end of me, because drop bears are known to eat humans. Then Julia suddenly appeared, pulled out her wand, and said Immobulus. The drop bear froze, and I was able to get myself free.
I am so happy and relieved.
We're all alive and fine. Well, Julia's not so fine actually. She's really depressed. I don't know why. She isn't even proud that she saved my life. She said it was just a fluke. She can say what she wants. I'm still proud of her, and I'm still happy that we're all alive.

You're so stupid, Alex!! You could have gotten yourself killed. It really was just a fluke!!!
Julia,
You can believe what you want. I don't believe it was a fluke, and I'm so grateful to you for saving my life.
This is what the note from the owl said:
STOP SENDING ME OWLS! I DON'T LOVE YOU. I NEVER LOVED YOU. HOW COULD I? YOU'RE FILTH. WHY WOULD I EVER LOVE A MUDBLOOD WHO STEALS MAGIC? EACH TIME YOU SEND ME AN OWL I HAVE TO WASH MY HANDS AND DO CLEANSING SPELLS JUST TO MAKE MYSELF FEEL LESS DIRTY.
I AM DISGUSTED AND ASHAMED FOR EVER TOUCHING YOU. I HOPE YOU FIND YOURSELF FACE TO FACE WITH THE DARK LORD. I SHALL REJOICE WHEN I HEAR NEWS OF YOUR DEATH.
IF YOU SEND ME ANOTHER OWL, I WILL COME OVER AND KILL YOU MYSELF.
Julia!! That's terrible!!! Who sent that to you??? Is that why you're so upset? I am so so so sorry : (
Rhyden Marwick.
Who is Rhyden Marwick???
My boyfriend.
Well, my ex-boyfriend, obviously.
You had a boyfriend???!!! Why in the world didn't you tell me?????
Anyway, I'm so sorry he wrote that horrible note. It's incredibly cruel. I feel very sad for you.
I don't need your pity.
It's not pity!
Julia I am so sorry that he treated you like that I can pay him a visit if you want me to ;). You know you deserve better than him. Just don't let it get you down. He is blinded by Voldimort and his lies. Remember who you are, you are a Muggle Born and we are a proud people. How lucky are we that we get to be blessed with magic. I tell you I don't think that I could be a regular Muggle. When he insultes you he insults me and every other Muggle Born. A famus Wizard once said: happiness can be found in the darkest of times if one only remembers to turn on the light. Just hang in there every thing will be fine.
And really I don't mind paying your ex a visit ;)
I'm so glad you're safe, Julia!!!
You may call it a fluke, but you were great, I'm sure!!!
I am disgusted about ever being associated with people like that. (I'm a pure-blood) I don't think you are filth. I think you have just as much right to work magic as any pure-blood out there.
Some people just want to be jerks about who they are related too. (their just copying what the muggles did in the seventeen hundreds)
Proud Mudblood and Lynette,
Thank you so much for your very kind words. I hope Julia will eventually see them...and listen. I tried to tell her you guys left messages. She just buried her face in the pillow and cried : (
I feel so bad for her, but not in a pitying way! I would be so sad if that happened to me. And Lynette, you're wonderful. There's nothing wrong with being pureblood. There's only wrongness in being cruel and prejudice.
Good that she is safe.
Alex,
I'm glad you found Julia and that you are both safe.
Julia,
I'm sorry. Please don't think of it as pity, but perhaps a friend trying to help. Rhyden is beng a jerk. One thing must say though. These letters... They don't sound very...real. Maybe someone is intercepting your owls and sending these relplies, or maybe Rhyden is nder the Imperious Curse. Just a thought.
P.S. Might be wrong, and I don't mean to get your hopes up if I am. It's just a thought.
Athena,
Thank you!
Mia,
Thank you! How are you doing? I guess you and Sophie are with Athena now?
That would be good if the owl really didn't come from Julia's boyfriend. I didn't even think of that. But I don't know. I'm afraid of getting her hopes up. Then again, maybe hope is better than feeling totally depressed.
Hey, Alex! Sorry about my extended absence. Between organising holiday visits by and distribution of supplies to "undesirables" in hiding, attending planning meetings for security patrols to protect The Wandless (sadly, attacks on them have been increasing as we get closer to Christmas), and participating in Luna Lovegood search and rescue groups, I've been very busy.
I was very relieved to learn that Julia turned up safe and unharmed and that you survived your encounter with that drop bear, thanks to Julia's quick reflexes.
Julia, I'm so sorry Rhyden owled you such a horrible message. I know you're grieving and in pain, but, if his beliefs can be so easily influenced by others, you cannot depend upon him and are better off without him. Be proud of your heritage. Muggles are brilliant, creative, fascinating beings who've accomplished amazing things, all without magic. They've even landed on the moon, for heaven's sake! Believe me, you're worth a dozen Rhydens. DFTBA!
In case I can't communicate before Christmas, Alex, I wanted to wish you, your family and everyone here a wonderful holiday.
Oh, Julia, I just learned the Order will have an agent patrolling near Rhyden's family's home over the next few days, so I've arranged to have a ton-tongue toffee that's been disguised as a jelly baby placed in his Christmas stocking. My little gift to you :).
Julia, Alex or whoever sees this. Please send me a sign all is well. We are all worried about you. If you need us we'll be there in a moment. Again, please confirm you are well.
Aoife: Hi! I missed seeing you around, but I know you're very busy. I'm grateful for all your visits.
I have no idea what a ton-tongue toffee is, but it sounds like something Rhyden would deserve. Well, unless Mia is right and he's under some kind of curse.
Then again, maybe this toffee could somehow break through the curse.
SC Mather: Thank you for your concern. We're doing okay. Julia's depressed though, and it's a bit of a mess. I'm going to write a post about that.
Alex, I'd like to believe that Rhyden and other formerly muggleborn-friendly witches and wizards who have turned against them have been Imperiused ... but we know from the the last time YKW was around that many used that as an excuse. But I will try to give Rhyden and others the benefit of the doubt.
And thanks for checking it. It appeared that the Ministry may have been interfering with your communications yesterday so please, PLEASE be extra vigilant and very careful!
P.S. I think I've taken on too much. I'm exhausted and, therefore, wonder how much use I am. One good thing about being too busy to sleep: You don't have nightmares.
Aoife,
My dad says if you don't sleep your nightmares will start creeping into your mind during the day. Then again life itself is sort of a nightmare lately.
It's easier to believe people are under some kind of imperius spell, but it could also just be wishful thinking. I understand why Julia would want to believe Rhyden didn't write that note. It would be nice if he didn't. But...well, I really don't know.

Please be nice to each other, even if you disagree with what the other person is saying.
If you suddenly feel possessed by a futuristic Muggle, PLEASE go to the OOC section to the right.
