So it's way more crowded here than normal, right? It's like somebody squeezed the City together and all the spread out parts condensed themselves up. Does it stay like this? Because this is dumb.

{ She knows what he meant, just trying to make conversation. ]

Well you've certainly got me beat. I've only been here a few days.

[captainfuckingmagic]

Oh yeah? Fun time to be new still, with all these other people. And the ticking we just had. Still I'm getting the impression it's pretty much constantly like this. Not, super crowded, just... with the weird shit.

[threeolives]

That's the impression I'm getting too. Something new every day, it seems. Never a dull moment.

So tell me, Harry, what is it you do back home?

[captainfuckingmagic]

Me? I'm a private detective.

[threeolives]

Wow, that's... quite the profession. How'd you get into that, exactly?

[captainfuckingmagic]

Christmas last year. There was a big murder, newspaper conspiracy thing, scandal, that sort of thing. Actually I was an actor for a really... Like, a super short period of time. By accident. Probably mostly by accident. How did you get into... [Secretary doesn't seem right.] ...being so professional? Assistant-wise. There's a whole range of assistants. I had one when I was a magician. Sort of.

man, I really need to rewatch KKBB. *SO GOOD*

Private detective, actor, and magician. That's quite the resume you've got there.

As for me, I was working lower down in Stark Industries, just some midlevel pencil pusher job, you know, when I noticed an accounting error. I brought it to Mr. Stark's attention, and as it turns out, ended up saving the company a whole lot of money in the process. He decided then to make me his Head Administrative Aid. [ ooc: incorporating a bit of her comics history here. ]

He also made me CEO for a few weeks not long ago, when he [ was dying ] had to temporarily step down for health reasons.

IT IS THE BEST EVER.

[captainfuckingmagic]

Yeah. LA's a weird place.

That's a pretty fun promotion. He said something about not being CEO when we had doughnuts a few days ago, I think. Are you doing that again? It seems like a lot of math.

[threeolives]

LA can be a real circus.

[ Well this is a revelation to her. ] Mr. Stark and I haven't discussed how I'll be joining the company. My time as CEO was... complicated. Not sure if I could handle tackling it again.
