There is a house. One enters it blind and comes out seeing. What is it?

[This riddle is so damn historical. Whoever gives the right answer will interest him greatly. A fellow lover of history, literature and philosophy! Or you've just heard this one before.]

[Action: Everglade]

[Everglade is where he lingers, the tip of his wand lit. He is in the process of searching, pausing now and then to cut leaves from surrounding foliage. Should anyone come upon him, they will find themselves briefly frozen by a spell.

Did he even move his wand? The real question should be: does he need to? No, Gellert is too fine of a Wizard to rely on such a rudimentary implement - though you will have to pry the Elder wand from his cold, dead fist. ~~Unless you are Albus Dumbledore.]~~

You should wear a bell.

[There aren't any books; despite a bookcase in the office.

The first statement someone is going to act(and very well one might add) - surprised. At least not repulsed.]

Really?! You and him? Nooooo. Really?

[Ten will step into the office fully but otherwise stand his ground. He can answer the question but - scratches the back of his neck instead]

Why not ask him yourself?

[At least now; Ten has something of a timeline point for you]

[He might need a summoning spell, then, to bring the books - if there are any - into one room. But he won't act rashly yet. This place and the Doctor set him on edge.]

We started communicating before he graduated from Hogwarts.

[Gellert's lips twist bitterly.]

He and I cannot speak as we once did. I find that...sad.

[Ten gives Gellert a hard but also sympathetic look - so - this did hurt you. Despite what happened to Albus's sister and trying to tempt Albus to the dark side. Gellert still is capable of love now. Which means - there's hope for him and goes over to sit in his spinny chair and leans back a bit and does that both fingertips touching thing with his own hands and states with a neutral face but sympathetic voice (basically a therapist tone)]

Yes. That is.

[But really Gellert - the obvious thing is that you should be telling Albus this - but there's also the forgiveness that needs to be done on Albus's end]

Albus is rather keen on helping his fellow wizards. Whether that means - help discover the twelve uses of Dragon's blood or being Professor at Hogwarts.

[However, it's the anti-Muggle prejudice is what Albus lost and saw that Albus was wrong about but it's not in Ten's place to talk about what happened to Albus's sister and father because of Muggles]

[He doesn't believe in love - or so he has convinced himself. His mission is more important - he can't let anyone interfere. Even Albus - who shines brighter than the rest - cannot...distract him. Gellert can live without him. He must.]

That sounds like him. [The affection is hard to hide and he lifts his chin, swallowing it. The years will make this easier for him, but he is young still and missing his first real friend.]

He is a fool for wasting his time with kids. Geniuses like him should be running things; not playing along with the rules of others.

[There's something sad in those brown eyes with a neutral face; something along the lines of 'you're taking what you have for granted'. Which is something The Doctor knows all too well and gives a small head nod at 'sounds like him']

Professor at Hogwarts or head of the Ministry of Magic - either way. You will never make everyone like you. You can only help those who will take it.

There are ways to give them no choice. [Here is where he and Albus differ.] Stupidity cannot be tolerated if the worlds have a chance of being fixed. The natural order needs to be restored and Dumbledore chooses to teach at a school.

[Schools are useless to him.]

If the outcome is positive, I don't care if everyone likes me.

[His hearts twitch because he knows there are ways]

Yes, thar are ways to do that but is that, right?

[He sounds a bit disappointed]

Why does the natural order need to be restored, Gellert?

How can it not be right? Those with power should lead. [Or else everything is topsy-turvy.]

So Wizards and Witches can stop living in the dark; so that we can stop hiding.

[Gosh how you sound like Rasslion!]

Power isn't the only influence thar is.

[He knows what Gellert is going to say - but wants Gellert to say it. Otherwise; questions that The Doctor does not want to answer and calmly remarks]

Where - you are right that it's not right for Wizards and Witches to live in the dark. You need to also understand that Muggles are fickle with things they don't understand.

[A short pause]

Magic scares them, Gellert. They don't understand it and they can't see that wizards and witches are also people who just have this extraordinary abilities.

I'm not saying it's right that Muggles can't understand magic. And they can't understand it because they want to logic the world and control it.

I'm sorry to say - even if it's been centuries - humans - Muggles- haven't gotten too far pass the mindset of Salem Witch Trials.

But - they are capable of learning. And that's what is wonderful about them.

[A short pause]

What about you, Gellert are you capable of learning?

Obviously. [But power is the influence that matters the most when building a hierarchy.] Then they need to learn. Wizards and Witches learn of them and it is high time the effort was repaid with interest.

[He shrugs and crosses his arms behind his back, posture impeccable.]

Fear isn't a bad thing. Fear can be their first teacher until they understand the Magical World better.

[Salem. Gellert smiles sharply, angrily.]

What's wonderful about them, Doctor? Teach me.

[There is still the matter of the Statute of Secretary. Ten promptly stands up in spot. His words have a harness to them and some parts with a hint of sarcasm some spots and ending on a really hard note]

Alright. Go ahead. Go ahead and blast your way into thar world. Go ahead and show them that the high society of Wizards are everything that Muggles write thar fairy tales about them.

To be feared

[A pause and Ten's vocal tone isn't as rough but more gentle and there's something of a twinkle in his brown eyes when he speaks of the Muggles]

Thar always changing. Always evolving. Always learning. Always creating.

[The Statute of Secrecy needs to be broken. Gellert would shatter it if he infiltrated the Ministry.

He is unimpressed, Doctor.]

They will see Magic; they will know it is real. Then I will enforce laws to protect both sides, but never again will they be split in two.

Eventually, the wonder will fade. It will become natural - as it should be.

[His nose wrinkles.]

Into what? More ignorance?

Edited 2018-08-20 06:28 (UTC)

The problem is Muggles seeing and remembering the magic.

[There's a hint in Ten's voice that he doesn't like the mindwiping either. It's against The Doctor's own personal morals]

Muggles need to see magic do good things. Using Wingardium LeviO-sa to save them. Reverse a collapsing building. Muggles need to see magic do good because of what they've read for centuries and passed down is that magic is evil and can't do good.

We both know the problem is the Ministry of Magic not wanting to understand that thar can be peace if they give the chance to show that magic can be good and used for good.

Believe me when I say this Gellert - humans can and will believe in oddities and accept them and merge with them. They are capable of it in the end.

[Even if Ten is more talking about how humans eventually accept the existence of aliens and end up mingling a lot of them and what a person is a very huge grey area. Gellert may also notice how Ten talks about humans being accepting like this (and something in those eyes) that someone seems to maybe - just maybe - The Doctor's magic is - time.]

Their minds wouldn't be wiped. [Those Magic users would be out of a job. No more hiding. No more protecting.]

If that's to happen, the gates need to be opened. With the connection comes good and bad. The Muggles will see that the bad is punished and the good rewarded.

[Is the Doctor speaking from experience? Gellert is curious, gaze assessing the other man's features.]

What do you know?

[Ten isn't exactly sure on what Gellert's definition of 'bad' is]

Nothing. I just have faith in them.

[Even if humans do have their moments where The Doctor wonders about them but they learn and in the end - that's what matters]

Edited 2018-08-21 19:23 (UTC)

[Ignorance, mostly. Maybe stupidity too.]

A faith placed with no logical reason.

[He can't accept faith in general because it doesn't need logical roots.]

Isn't that how it always is?

Happiness can be found in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.

[A pause]

Do you need a light, Gellert?

I've never had a light. [Except for one summer. But he had ruined that, hadn't he?]

Well - if you find yourself in need one of.

You know where to find me.

That's quite an offer and we've only just met. [He walks around the room.] Do you have copies of his work?

[Because this face believes in crazy people like you and Harold Saxon - oops; sorry]

I know.

In this universe. No. Lucky I have my wand.

[The room is fairly interesting but no books]

But you remember what you read. [No, he will not be deterred by the Doctor or a room.]

[What to do? What to do? He could very cleverly and discreetly ask Albus to make a copy. That's good. It's just getting Gellet temporarily off his back]

Tell you what - why don't I double check my apartment and I'll get back to you tomorrow morning.

[He's just a touch tired right now]

[Good luck with that. Gellert can be a dangerous parasite if he so chooses.]

...I will be waiting for your call. [And if he doesn't receive it, guess who is going to go Doctor hunting?]

[That's alright, Gellert won't be the first or the last dangerous parasite that latches itself to The Doctor.

Ten gives Gellert a head nod and goes to lock up his chemistry table and only when he can't see Gellert in the room. Steps into the Tardis and dematerializes.

Gellert might be around close enough to at least hear that odd sound.

Tomorrow; as Ten gets into his jim jams he needes to seek out Albus. To be honest he's giddy because some alien would love to read a book one doesn't have access too in their universe.

Shame that The Doctor can't foresee his own future even if he doesn't have his time sight here because then he would have foreseen Rose coming to Ten in the morning asking why the sex? And that she's just happy looking at him. Which will divulge into a serious discussion and screw Rose for having put together what makes someone's button go on - psychicness. More specifically on the spine and then saying she wants him psychically.

Which will lead to epic love shagging and Gellert won't hear from The Doctor the next day as promised - nor will anyone else see him or Rose that entire day.

Gellert can try to look for The Doctor on this day The Doctor was suppose to call Gellert; but Gellert will come to realize that someone has a good hidey hole- namely The Tardis.

Ten will venture out the next day; however looking for Albus to get that book made for Gellert and himself.
