Nov. 9th, 2022 08:22 am[ The video opens on a shot of Tony and Peter Parker (the younger version) sitting at the baby grand in Tony's front room. Tony is playing an arrangement of Happy Birthday To You as they talk. Tony appears calm and collected; Peter is grinning, delighted. ]
TONY: Good morning, citizens of Duplicity. Duplicitizens. Today is a very special day. Why is that, Peter?
PETER: Well Mr. Stark, it's someone's birthday.
TONY: Yes, it is. JOCASTA, let's put up a picture of the birthday boy here.
[ Through the magic of video software, a very subtly and artistically edited image appears and remains on the screen for the next bit: ]
( excellent gif art )
TONY: Is it there? Hopefully that worked. Great, look at that. Beautiful. Okay, I guess now it's time to wish him a happy birthday, right Pete?
PETER: What? Oh, yeah! Let's go!
[ The video cuts back to the pair of them and they launch into a rendition of Happy Birthday To You. The singing is surprisingly good, though there are some slightly over ambitious harmonies going on from a certain friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man.
When they reach the name verse, Peter sings "Doctor Strange" and Tony opts for "Stephen Vincent Strange", so it falls apart a little at the end, but they nevertheless finish on a flourish of the piano. ]
TONY: There we go. Now, I want all of you out there to leave your messages of, uh, goodwill and fellowship, or whatever else you wanna say, in the comments below. I've arranged a way for our dear friend Doctor Strange to receive every single one straight to his phone, so don't worry, he will see them all and he's going to love them, isn't that right?
PETER: Well --
TONY: Thank you for watching! Over and out! [ Tony blows a kiss at the camera, then turns to Peter as they "cut". ] You were flat, by the way, those last notes --
PETER: No, I was singing like, happy birthday to yooouuuuu, and then you needed to go under and I would go over like, happy birthday to yoooooouuu, you know, like Mariah Carey --
TONY: Terrible, no. [ He starts playing the piano again. ] Follow along with this, come on --
[ The video ends there, thankfully. ]
