WHO: Gellert and Albus
WHEN: Now
WHERE: Wherever the wind takes us!
WHAT: Clearly I did not think this through.



Gellert was frustrated beyond all reason. The search for the Hallows had stalled, thanks to being catapulted into the future. All the trails had gone cold, he didn't even know where to begin to look for new information, and he was beginning to fear that it might be hopeless.

Obviously, it was vital that they return to their own time.

"Obviously," he said, pacing on the sidewalk in Hogsmeade, where they had come to enjoy the quaint village atmosphere because it was so crowded in the Ministry housing, "it is vital that we return to our own time."

Gellert paused and tapped a finger against his lips. He was wearing his jeans again, mostly because he could, and a rather fuzzy sweater that he feared made him look silly but which was quite warm. "But," he mused. "How to manage this. Perhaps! You should get a job in the Department of Mysteries."

Ha! Clearly Gellert had won the point of the flobberworms, and he could feel that he was on the brink of proving English a crude language as well. In his own mind, at least. Which left the problem of the book. Albus was not going to make it easy on him...so why should Gellert make it easy on Albus?

He continued speaking in German because he felt like it. "Naturally language must be fluid and adaptable," he said. "But in no other language have I encountered such a lax attitude toward proper grammar. As you say, language can be a beautiful thing, but only when properly used; these people use it in such a crude way."

Then he gave Albus a dangerous, devastating smile and said, "But whoever said we needed to use language to communicate?" He twisted his body to get closer, leaned up, and kissed Albus lightly on the corner of his mouth - not a truly romantic kiss, but hardly platonic, either.
