OPEN MARVEL RP

"Aftereffects"

Tony had promised her that she was cured. She had to be... but sometimes Pepper worried Extremis never did fully leave her system.

It was in the headaches, the occasional fevers, the pain she swore radiated from the injection points. Maybe it was all in her head, but today she couldn't stand whatever it was that plagued her.

Pepper politely excuses herself from a meeting she definitely needs to be in, rushing down the hall the moment the doors close. She slips into an empty meeting room, sliding to the ground with her back firmly against the wall. Focusing solely on slowing her breathing, Pepper doesn't notice someone come in behind her.

Mom!! Do you know where the forms are for, uh, intern-related accidents?

@smarterthantonystark

Pepper doesn't even look up from her computer.

"Property damage, bodily injury, or 'will show up in the papers tomorrow' sort of accident?"

I was never high and the couch is fine

"Peter Anthony Stark, what the hell did you do?"

[therealstarkceo]

"Hey mom! What are you up to?" Katie smiles as she walks into the room.

@katiestark

"The usual... Endless paperwork, yelling at investors, and trying to keep your father or brother out of the news. Did you need something from me?"

Wanna play army? You can be the enemy and I'll blow the hell out of- you know what this is too dirty, I'm terrible at these, gah!

[chuckles] You were doing great, Pep. Really.

Now what was that about blowing something?
