Remus,
I found the note on the kitchen table this morning. Would you like to explain it, you git?
Tonks.

Nymphadora,
I believe the note was quite self explanatory, actually.
R.J. Lupin.
Auror Headquarters, 10:59 a.m., March 11.
You let it on the kitchen table where all and sundry could see it!
Must you address owls that way?

Nymphadora,
The note was charmed for your eyes only. I don't believe I am so cruel and oblivious to women that I would leave a message of that nature for 'all and sundry' to see.
And I shall continue to address your owls to you. You weren't complaining when I called you by your name last night, so I took that as permission to continue using it – prematurely, it would seem.
You have yet to respond to the original message.
R.J.Lupin.
Auror Headquarters, 11:45 a.m., March 11.
Tonks,
Lupin's going bloody mad. Whatever's going on, could you just agree with him? He's scaring the owls.

Charlie,
No, I won't bloody agree with him until he does it properly.
Tonks.
Grimmauld Place, 12:33 p.m., March 11.
Nymphadora,
Charlie Weasley tells me you are unhappy with my preferred methods of communication, and for that I do apologise. I have never previously been in this situation, and am quite concerned that if I stuff it up for you, you will never forgive me, and that if I allowed you time to contemplate my proposal, you could come to a balanced and clearly thought out response, no matter what it is. Whatever your response is, I am honoured to have known you.
R.J. Lupin.
Auror Headquarters, 12:50 p.m., March 11.
Tonks,
He just started on the Fire whiskey. Is that allowed so soon after a full moon?
C.W.
Auror Headquarters, 1:00 p.m., March 11.
Charlie,
He's a bloody lightweight, take away the bottle, and tell the man to be patient. Honestly.
Tonks.
Auror Headquarters, 1:27 p.m., March 11.
Remus Lupin,
You are a great daft git. I have taken your proposal under consideration and despite the fact you left it in a note on the kitchen table of Headquarters, Charmed or not, I have decided that it would be a terribly interesting story to tell our grandchildren.
In short, yes, you prat.
