Harry,

What was it like to grow up without magic? I know I teased you about it before, so I'll understand if you don't want to answer. But the more I think about things, the more I want to know. Yes, even about Muggles. I never took Muggle Studies at Hogwarts, so all I really know is what my father told me, and … well … I suspect he may have been less than truthful when it comes to the subject.

Was it terrible? How did you feel once you found out you could do magic?

Interested to know,
Draco

Draco,

To tell the truth, I didn't know any better, so it wasn't that bad living without magic. Muggles have a lot of things that help them get things done, like electricity and such. It isn't all that much more difficult to manage, though I'd imagine it was awful before they discovered it.

Living with Muggles isn't bad, but living with the Dursleys was a nightmare. I had chores to do - lots of Muggle children do. But I reckon I had a lot more than most. It was a little bit like being a house elf, I suppose.

Harry.

Skalawee!

No effing idea where that one came from, but I take full responsibility for being a spaz and actually typing it.
