May 2003, London, Office of the Head of the Department for Magical Creatures and Magical Beings

"Those complete prats," Hermione said as she read the report that had just come across her desk.  She got weekly updates on news concerning friends and enemies.  It was often innocuous, but this she could not allow to pass unremarked.

She Flooed Ginny immediately, and found to her delight that Luna was visiting.  "Oh, perfect, just the witches I need.  Look at this!"  She passed a copy of her report through the fire. 

The reaction was everything she wanted.  "How could they?"  "They won't get away with it!" Hermione smiled a tiny, evil smile she had perfected for Ministry work. 

"Ladies, I am sure you understand what this means."  She reached out and tapped the parchment Luna held in her hands.  Ministry marriage certificates were plain, bureaucratic things with no sense of artistry or romance.  This one was unremarkable save for the names printed neatly as spouses: Remus Lupin and Severus Snape. 

Ginny nodded, her eyes narrowing in a way that could only mean plotting.  "We have no choice, really." 

Luna twined a lock of hair around her fingers as she contemplated the two names.  "Yes.  They've brought it on themselves." 

"Right then," Hermione said.  "Let's meet for dinner to decide how to proceed. Those two are going to sit through a reception if I have to tie them to their chairs!"
