Words that embody the people or things that you interact with are "Alchemy, Challenge, Clown, Guru, Killer, Lyric, Silence, Soul, Touch, Water, Work".
I think if you squint enough, Tony or his house cover every single word in that list >.>
Tony: Clowns are actualy forbidden on the premises.
Pepper: Afraid of competition? Or do you mean that you drop that when you come in - except when there's a party to entertain?
Tony: I am not a clown. *frowns slightly* Maybe if my ties and shirts were a little more obnoxious...
Pepper: Oh. You could fool a dreadful lot of people, you know. Those who don't look closely.
Tony: Well, I lighten conversations up but I think I'm a little too witty to be called a clown. Maybe an entertainer, or just colorful.
Pepper: Yes, Mr. Stark.
Tony: Hey. Watch that tone. *makes a lazy effort at sounding assertive not really giving a shit one way or another*
Pepper: *rolls her eyes, then after a beat* What's wrong with clowns anyway?
Tony: Nothing, they're great. Gotta love people who get paid to scare kids and pretend to be happy for a few hours.
Pepper: I was never scared by clowns. Some of them were actually funny.
... okay, I wasn't scared of clowns until I got into reading Stephen King, but that's a different story.
Tony: It doesn't count. I'm pretty sure that would be disturbing to anyone. So Pepper Potts is fearless.
Pepper: Hardly fearless. Just not afraid of clowns. You've seen my reaction to, ah... pus... No, not fearless, that's overestimating me.
Tony: *repeats nonchalantly* Inorganic plasmic discharge. I just complaints about the smell. You hung in there like a trooper, though!
Pepper: Yes, well, I thought it was pus before you told me that! *shakes her head* Sorry for the parts I botched even though you did tell me about them.
Tony: Unlikely. While I'm sure there was some pus involved in the mixture, if the cavity was that populated by it the bacterial infection...I might not be standing here right now. *shrugs* Only a reminder you need to play more Operation. *smirks*
Pepper: *...*
*subdued* I do wish somebody professional would look at that. Just in case. An infection would be... bad.
*sighs* I guess I'm more comfortable with the part of the nurse than the surgeon?
Tony: *lightly prods at the arc reactor under his shirt* Absolutely not. Pepper, if I needed a nurse I'd order one in a skimpy costume. *a pause* I don't need you to be a surgeon... just to be, you know, available.
Pepper: I'm... I'll be here, Tony. I'm just not sure somebody more expert shouldn't help too.
*bites her lower lip and tries to lighten up a bit* Oh so it's criticism on what I wear, now. I will have you know it's perfectly suitable for my job.
Tony: *sincerely* That's...it's good to know. *smiles lightly, stroking his chin briefly at the mental imagery before returning to normal* I'm not going to instate a dress code. I can't really say I have any big complaints with your clothes.
Pepper: *nods, then echoes in an entirely different tone* Well, that's good to know. *a beat* It would probably be distracting for JARVIS if I were to dress more, how was it? Skimpily.
Tony: *brows furrow lightly at the thought* He's been a bit mouthy lately. Apparently more ambitious as well, and who could blame him? *drums fingers on the metalic surface of the reactor innocently*
Pepper: *opens mouth, closes it* I'd... I should probably ask him, but - ambitious for what? *eyes him drumming on the glow-surface, no, the arc reactor; but it's kind of reassuring, the self-confident kind of tap, 'all functional here, heart's online'*
Tony: That one set of results, I mean.No secrets from mun to muse *laughs* Which ones did he show up on?
Pepper: Oh. Oh... Yes. I think my mun mentioned I am not 30? And obviously my favorite season isn't the Fall.
Tony: Then what's the truth?
Pepper: *looks away* You have access to my CV, Mr. Stark. But I did start working for Stark Industries while your father was in charge. Not that an intern had any opportunity to work anywhere near him, of course, but still.
Tony: That was a long time ago. *seems reflective, then snaps back to attention* I mean it just felt that way. Not in the old way. *pauses to collect self* ...I'd rather hear it from you is what I meant. *scruffs his hair*
Pepper: *yeah. Straight question. Should be easy enough. right?* *after a small pause* Two years younger than you. *no, she's not taking offense at him talking to her about her age. It's thinking about her age and that she may be getting too old for doing a good job is what's worrying her... Probably.*
Tony: See? Not so hard. *grins, satisfied with the answer* And where do you see yourself in two years when you're standing in my shoes?
Pepper: *level stare* I will never stand in your shoes, Mr. Stark. *oops. It's something that was occasionally suggested while he was missing... touchy phrasing, there* *a breath, then* I thought you didn't want me to have plans.

Date: 2008-07-02 09:43 am (UTC)Maybe not plans...we'll call it a general direction.
ooc: By the way, I was watching the movie again and in the scene where Pepper's birthday is brought up Tony mentions that it's June. :) Doesn't necessarily mean it has to be so. I do like how her meme came out anyway!
no subject
Date: 2008-07-02 06:47 pm (UTC)... yes, and almost anything I say will lead to you changing it somehow. Maybe I'd rather... just play along.
ooc: Hmmm June. Gemini or Cancer. *sighs* still not as good as virgo. But June it shall be. ;)
