Mr. Dayspring,

First, let me offer my congratulations on your upcoming (very quickly upcoming) wedding to Dr...Moira. She threatened to hit me the next time I called her Dr. MacTaggart. You certainly are marrying a handful, aren't you?

(And now my wife is hitting me, lovely.)

The main reason I'm contacting you is because of our missing in action colleague. There still has been no word from Dr. Campbell and, honestly, I prefer it that way. I'm not writing this to Moira simply because she already knows and I figured I would put your mind to ease as well.

Staff have been alerted that he is not invited to the upcoming wedding. If he arrives, he will be escorted from the premises rather quickly. I might be missing an arm but I can certainly move much faster than he can. We are currently holding all of his belongings until he _does_ resurface, God only knows when THAT'S going to be.

So. No worries about the globe wandering Campbell showing up on your big day. I don't think he'd stand a chance.

Sincerely,

Dr. Connors

Firstly, thank you - and yes, she is quite a handful. Thankfully she's also not reading this over my shoulder so I'm escaping my due beating.

Actually, secondly, thank you, too. Rory has notoriously bad timing and I have to admit I'd entertained that as one of the possible things that might go wrong. That doesn't mean I wouldn't prefer to have the man resurface - I know Moira's still almost as worried as she is angry - but preferably not next Saturday.

I'll look forward to seeing you again. I know we didn't get time to exchange more than the minimum pleasantries the last time I was there, but hopefully we can rectify that this time.

Your soon-to-be wife and my currently very beloved wife (who is still reading over _my_ shoulder) were exchanging notes the last time Moira was here. We, my good man, are doomed.

So I've heard. I've never actually met the man myself, though I've gotten an earful since I've been here. Both staff and locals alike, good impressions and dire threats. But I rather enjoy working here and am not in the least inclined to give it back to someone who leaves experiments half finished. I'm still cleaning up his mess.

Hrm. When are you and Moira expected over? A few days before? I think her uncle was making noises of having a bit of a "guy's night out" or something before the date itself.

But it's probably a very good way to go.

Moira and I should be there sometime on Wednesday, I think. I would dearly love to be able to flee temporarily before things really start getting hectic, so I think we should definitely take Billie up on his offer.
