Hey Charles!

I know you already know my name but here's a more formal introduction. My name is Olivia, Liv for short, and I'm a first-year Thunderbird at Ilvermorny. I'm also on the broom racing team here! Anyways, I'm glad that you don't care about blood statuses and all because I'm muggle-born. I honestly don't get why other purebloods think they're the best just because they only have magic blood in them and not a single drop of muggle blood. Oh wait...actually, now that I think of it, I get why. Still, they don't have to be snotty to other people just because they're 'the best'.

My family is really nice and chill. They're...kind of the opposite of your family, to be honest. What's it like having a sibling? I'm an only child so it get's really boring for me. Well, only on rainy days, which is pretty rare where I lived before coming to Ilvermorny. If it's a good day, I always go out and explore the world. You would think that by now, I would've explored every inch of where I lived right? Well, the answer's actually no. New things are always appearing out of nowhere so there's just so much to explore! I should really get going now so see you Charles! Hope I'll hear from you again~

Bests,

Dear Olivia,

Your all the broom racing team to! That is so cool, I personally love flying and racing, I feel so free when I'm up there. Like I could be myself for a change, maybe we could fly together if we ever meet each other that is.

Ilvermorny has houses like Hogwarts right? And Thunderbird is one of them? What's the other house and what do they mean? Sorry for all the questions about the houses, I just wish I could be at a different school like Ilvermorny or Hogwarts instead of Dumstrang. Dumstrang doesn't have houses, were separated by genders then but achievements. The students who perform better in classes are in the higher up rooms and the ones that don't are in the lower rooms. I'm in the middle since I'm on the broom racing team and the others don't like me mentioning it but I'm one of the fastest on the team probably because I spend so much time on a broom.

What's your family like Olivia.. uh Liv? What's life like as a only child? That sounds amazing compared to me, during holiday's mostly just summer holiday's,
I live with my grandfather and grandmother on my father's side, my father, mother, aunt, two younger cousins, and older brother. I have another uncle and cousins but I'm not allowed to mention them and my professor is eyeing this behind my shoulder so I shouldn't and I'm not.

My older brother is one of the top students here and at home he's the perfect son, everyone dots on him and tells him how he will be the next head of the family. Basically they ignore me over my git of a brother, not that I care since their all annoying typical pureblood's. I am close with my mother through which is nice I guess but besides from her uh my family isn't big on celebrating achievements or physical contact so.... my cousins that live with us; Colin is the older one and even through he doesn't like it, I'm jealous that he's at Hogwarts. My other cousin; Leo is 9 and he's the only one in my family that I like since I sort of feel bad for him since he never met his father and doesn't really act like a kid.

I love to be with friends and explore the outdoors especially on a broom, what's the grounds of Ilvermorny and your home like? Most of my friends are in different schools which bums me out kind of but hey it's not that bad. I better go now, out physical training is about to start, bye for now Liv and I hope to see your letter soon.

Sincerely,
Charles Alluring
