[This entry might seem a little uncharacteristically chipper coming from Murdoc of all people. Why? Because it's all pretty much fake. He's engaged to Sybille simply to prevent her from being deported and this entry has been made in the interest of seeming genuine.]

Good evening, Hogwarts. It is my great pleasure to announce that after nearly twenty years of being madly in love, both myself and the lovely Miss Matteris have gotten ourselves engaged to be married.

As of yet we haven't set a date for the wedding but we were simply too excited to hold off on announcing this to our dear friends. I'm certain you will all be invited.

We need to talk.

It looks desperate. The Titanic is sinking so Rose wants to be with Jack forever after knowing him for three days.

You and your uncle need to ease up on the metaphors.

This seems like a perfectly reasonable metaphor.
Unless you haven't seen Titanic if that's the case I'll come up with another.

I haven't, but I wouldn't bother if I were you.

The inquisitor does not dictate the events in my life, Strider. My engagement is of little relevance to him.

Well. Okay then. I suppose I can't argue that. Especially when it isn't my life in question.
Congrats and whatnot.

Have I done something wrong by you, Strider?

No. It just looks fishy from an outsider's perspective, is all.

Sometimes the threat of deportation endears the idea of marriage.

This makes sense now. That's rather philanthropic of you.

The pleasures all mine, I assure you.

What happens after that's not necessary anymore?

I wish I knew.

I hope everything turns out as planned.
