Let Hedwig in.

"Hey there girl. Sorry if you've been waiting long." Harry said, giving the snowy owl a loving pet before freeing her of the letters and putting her in her cage to rest. She in turn gave him a gentle nip on the finger, telling Harry he - err, well... she - was either forgiven or hadn't kept the owl locked out in the muggy summer night air for long enough to earn her ire.

Taking up the letters, Harry was surprised to find them all from Luna Lovegood. Opening them up to find the oldest to read first, said surprise turned to confusion when at a glance, he found all but one to be exact copies.

That done, Harry tried to leave the letter on his desk, thinking it better to let Hedwig have a rest before making another delivery so soon. But before he had a chance to stop her, said owl was out the window with letter in claw.

Shaking her head, Harry turned away from the window and...
