The royal wedding party ended with a champagne toast. Fortunately Potter had somehow acquired decent taste in wine, so it was a pleasure to drink the happy couple's health instead of a chore to be endured.

"Oh, yes. The champagne knocked him right out." Remus yawned extravagantly. "He's not the only one."
Severus smiled into the dark. "Good night, Remus."
