Letters to Fred [CURRENTLY OPEN TO REQUESTS]

Ron

Hi.

Long time, no see, so to speak.

I'm sorry.

I was there. I could have done something - anything - yet I stood there like the mooron I am. All those times you told me I'm an idiot... It was to wind me up, and I know that. But it's true.

I could have shoved you out of the way. Levitated the wall as it was falling. I could've hexed that goddam fucking twat that ruined our lives, and ended yours.

Stop with that annoying smile you'll be wearing, if you can - or if you are - reading this.

Look, I'm sorry Fred. For everything. I knew we'd lose people in the war - everyone always does. But it could never have ever been you. The happy-go-lucky guy. The prankster. The one who was half of two.

I'm sure - certain even - that the others will have mentioned George. But don't get me wrong here, I'm not accusing you. You can't help it. *You can't do anything.*

I guess this is all for now.

-Ron
