Dear Mr. Scamander and Ginger,

Hello! It's Billie. I hope you are doing real well and that you haven't been eaten by anything. And I hope that the Ministry hasn't been bossing you too much because that's boring and dumb. Anyways I am writing you because I wanted to make sure you were still alive and doing okay. Are you okay? And I had a question.

Do you know a lot about puffskeins? I found one at school and it has been living under my bed and I have been feeding it leftovers! Sometimes it sleeps with me and sounds all happy. I've named it Mr. Fuzz since he looks like if you took all the fuzz off of a sweater and squished it all up. I love him and Soot likes him. Gideon doesn't know about him yet.

Anyways I hope you are alive and happy and that Ginger is good, too. Please give her a hug for me and this weird shiny thing I found on the stairs.

Your friend,
Billie

Billie,

I am quite well thank you, no near-eatings for me lately. It was kind of you to ask. Ginger is perfectly fine and is up to her usual hijinks. Your gift was greatly appreciated and added to her collection after she checked it all over.

I do know a little bit about Puffskeins. They are quite easy to care for, can generally take care of themselves, but do have a bad habit of drinking out of places they are not supposed to, so keep an eye on that. They'll eat just about anything, scraps of food from dinner, spiders and other insects, though do watch out because their favorite food is human snot. Good luck with that! Unless you have a roommate you don't care for, then it's delightful revenge.

If I were you I would just make it a little nest below your bed and keep an eye on it, otherwise enjoy Mr. Fuzz!

Best Wishes,
Mr. E. Scamander
