After seven years as a couple (a few of them long-distance) and one near-breakup caused by a certain penguin's less-than-perfect performance as postmaster, Sir Tristan and Lady Faraday are officially engaged!
Unfortunately, I missed the proposal, because I was off playing a socially-challenged bishonen sorcerer in a game of Exalted. But I'm told that it was incredibly romantic, and that Lady Faraday got down on three knees and everything. Apparently they'd been talking about marriage for a while, but the proposal itself was a surprise for Sir Tristan.
There may or may not be pictures of this. It's less than clear, because the engagement party was quite an event. I got home while it was still going on; Magick was making cocktails and pretty much everyone was totally wasted except for him and, ironically, the happy couple (who do look really, really happy). Lady Artemisia might have taken pictures, but she's looking like she might be out for a while.
Lady Faraday says that they haven't set a wedding date yet, but they're not intending to have a very long engagement, so probably it will be within the year. They haven't decided whether to be married here or to go back home briefly so that their families can attend.
