[A Belated Birthday] [Video]

[Gellert is standing outside and there is darkness all around him, apart from the candle he is holding which illuminates his face.]


So it seems that I have missed my birthday.... At least according to the community in general. Peculiar how time is different all over.

Well, this may call for a belated display of colour then.


[He grins and points his wand toward the sky. Soon there are magical bursts of fireworks lighting it up.]

Oh, I always see the positive. When she was ranting, I'd just sneak out.

[He grins.]

[She laughs]

Well that's certainly one solution to the problem. Didn't she notice?

[darklycharming]

Yes, then I would get a lecture when I came home.

But she gave up trying, in time.

[ms_potts]

That sounds very familiar, actually

[darklycharming]

Oh? Did you have a humorless guardian as well?

[ms_potts]

Actually I typically end up on the other side of that equation.

[darklycharming]

People think that you are uptight?

[ms_potts]

Mostly Tony, but yes. I've had to be. I've had to help run one of the largest companies in the world. If I wasn't everyone would think it would be easy to walk all over me and I wouldn't get anywhere.

[pause]

Besides: if I wasn't, Tony would never make it to meetings or appointments at all. He'd lock himself in his workshop and not come out for days at a time. That's fine when he doesn't have any other engagements, but when he has work to attend to it makes things rather difficult.

[darklycharming]

It sounds like you are very responsible... But you do have fun too, don't you?

[ms_potts]

When I can, yes. It's been easier lately.

[darklycharming]

Has it? Why?

[ms_potts]

I ran the company myself for a week. Since then he's taken up more responsibilities and made my job easier.
