alt_fredWriting for George:
First: Fred finally broke down and told me about Hitty this afternoon. They're letting me up out of bed now, so the first thing I did was to go see her resting place. Colin had set up a headstone for her, and he magicked the letters to say just what you asked for:
Here Lies Hitty
Faithful Friend
I hope you don't think it's silly, but I had Fred apparate to the shop and bring back the WWW charter parchment. The two of us added her name to the bottom, listing her as a Founding Partner. We reckon she put in enough sweat equity to have a stake in the business, same as the three of us, and we didn't think you'd mind, yeah?
Secondly:
Pansy, it stinks that I have to tell you this way, but I reckon it won't come as much of a surprise. That note with the charmed writing I sent you today by owl, with the transfigured roses: the spells were done by Fred. They finally let me have my wand back today, and I can't raise a single spark with it.
Of course, we're hoping my magic will come back eventually, just like Frank's did. Still, it isn't going to be easy hiding the fact that I'm a squib, especially if it's for as long as a year, like it was for Frank. It's going to be hard to keep the business running. It helps that Fred and I are identical twins, at least. We've managed to fool just about everyone at one time or another over which of us is which. So it'll be easy to make people think they're seeing both Fred and George using their wands. Fred can use my wand in a pinch, to help convince customers, although it tends to get kind of jumpy in his hand.
Sorry, I know I'm babbling. The thing is, I know we'll have to keep this a dead secret, if I want to live out in the open. We've a lot experience at fooling people, but it's gonna be hard.
I love you. And I want to suck your toes. (This is Fred. Geoge is trying to wwrestle the quill AWAY fm me. I have no idea why)

We'd hoped that being identical twins would help fool the journal magic. After all, we've freely written in each other's journals before. But the key element seems to be magic. Without it, the journal won't accept his writing.
George gave me a bit of a shiner last night. He made me promise that if I add anything myself, I have to make it clear it's from me. So: that last sentence was from me alone, all right?
(Although I'm sure he wants to suck your toes anyway).
