Hello, fellow fandom nerds!

I bring you yet another ridiculous yet strangely sophisticated exchange between the Black brothers. Because, let’s be honest, if Regulus and Sirius ever had formal apologies, they would 100% turn into passive-aggressive competitions.

This is the sibling energy we all deserve—petty hexes, dramatic insults, and absolutely zero real remorse. Feel free to imagine this taking place via enchanted letters, dramatically delivered by an unfortunate Hogwarts owl caught in the crossfire.

"Even McGonagall can't resist a well-placed prank!"

I had way too much fun writing this exchange between Lily and McGonagall using the Formal Apology format! Lily’s sass, McGonagall’s dry wit, and James being... well, James—it all just fits perfectly.

I can totally imagine McGonagall secretly amused but still trying to keep order in her class. And let’s be honest, Lily Evans charming James’s hair to spell "Prat" is exactly the kind of thing she’d do.

Well, you didn’t think Hermione would let Harry have the last word, did you?

This is her very Hermione-ish response—half apology, half lecture, and 100% proof that she is, in fact, always right. I had a blast writing this because their dynamic is just so them: Harry, frustrated but resigned, and Hermione, logically explaining why he should be grateful for her constant corrections.

I had so much fun writing this Bureau of Communication notice from Harry to Hermione! We all know how much Hermione values precision, and we all know how much Harry does not.

This little message captures that dynamic—Harry, the exasperated but secretly grateful best friend, and Hermione, the well-meaning but slightly overwhelming perfectionist.

Fred and George Weasley apologizing? Shocking, I know. But even the best pranksters have to face the consequences sometimes—especially when Molly Weasley and Professor McGonagall are involved!

Here are two formal (and completely sincere, of course) apologies from the twins for their thoughtful gift to Ginny. Let me know what you think—would you accept their apologies, or would they still be in trouble?

Note to Professor McGonagall From Harry & Ron

Dear Professor McGonagall,

Before you read the formal apology (which we put a lot of serious thought into, by the way), we’d just like to clarify a few things:

1. The suits of armor technically agreed to sing. We didn’t force them; we simply… encouraged their hidden musical talents.

2. We genuinely believed Hogwarts could use a bit more school spirit. And what better way than a spontaneous, slightly off-key concert?

3. In hindsight, we understand that enchanted armor belting out tunes at breakfast might not be the ideal way to start the day. Especially for those who value quiet mornings. Like, say, everyone.

We hope you’ll appreciate the effort we’ve put into both the apology and, if we’re honest, the performance.

Yours in mild regret and lingering amusement,

Note to My Dear Readers:

I present to you: Harry and Ron’s (probably 100th) formal apology to Professor McGonagall. At this point, I’m pretty sure she has a special drawer in her office labeled “Potter & Weasley Disaster Reports.”

This time, our favorite duo has—accidentally, of course—turned the Gryffindor common room into a swamp. Just another day at Hogwarts! I imagine Hermione is somewhere in the background, muttering about “why do I even bother ” while handing them a pre-written apology template.

Look, we all love Piper—she’s brave, kind, and can charmspeak her way out of almost anything. Almost. Because apparently, even charmspeak can’t convince Annabeth Piper’s singing isn’t a crime against humanity.

So, in the spirit of friendship (and possibly self-preservation), Annabeth has taken it upon herself to deliver some constructive feedback. Which, let’s be honest, is just a fancy way of saying, "Piper, please stop before Leo starts sobbing into Festus again."
