The morning post arrived as Hermione sat down at the table. Witch Weekly declared Hermione and Marcus a handsome couple, and posted a two page spread of photos: Marcus escorting her through the lobby, posing for the photographers, both of them warmly greeting Viktor, then waltzing, and Hermione's favorite, the two gazing at one another, love radiating on their faces. The Quibbler mentioned they attended and mentioned a lack of nargles affecting the couple. Hermione assumed that was a good sign. The Daily Prophet, or rather Rita Skeeter, took a different stance.
