[pepperedsmile]

You've reached Pepper Potts. I'm sorry I missed your call, but please leave a message with your name, your contact information and details as to why you're calling after the tone and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you.

[There's a pause and it's almost added as an after thought:]

If this is a message regarding Tony Stark, I will make sure to address the matter or concern as soon as possible. Thank you for you patience.

[While being around her while she didn't remember hurt, it hurt more to imagine her not being around. Which is why he's making this call.]

Captain America wants us to move in with him. [He doesn't sound exactly happy about it, but Steve lives in a nice place.

Wait.]

...are you ignoring my calls? Why am I getting your voicemail?

IC Voice;

[pepperedsmile]

[After listening to the message she can't help but shake her head. Good to see he's alive. She doesn't know how his liver does it. Pepper quickly calls him back.]

Captain America? You mean Steve Rogers? Really?

[And then a sigh.]

I busy getting groceries and trying to find a job. Mooching off people isn't going to get us anywhere.

What is that face?

voice; all I do is spam in here :(

[technetronic]

[Tony sounds maybe a tiny bit drunk.]

Pep? Banner's here, I want you to help get him settled in the tower. He's a great guy, just make sure he doesn't get mad because he kind of turns into an enormous green rage monster, but it'll be fine because he's totally got it under control.

[The sounds of liquid sloshing and drinking.]

I'm also going to be busy for a little bit so don't worry if you don't see me.

[Tony is going to hide and hopefully stay drunk the entire time. He won't be picking up if she tries to call back.]

voice; /gathers all the spam

[pepperedsmile]

[She knows that sound all too well and it doesn't take a genius to figure out the reason why he sounds the way he does. Pepper's already made all the arrangements to have Bruce stay with them so she'll tell him that much - but she figures she'll leave out the whole 'I've met your dad' conversation for later because obviously he's met him too.

Pepper calls him back despite knowing that he probably won't be picking up.]

I'll take care of him, don't worry. But...can you please take care of yourself too? Be back at the Tower by night fall otherwise I'm coming to get you.

I'm sure you know by now that Howard is here.

Kind of freaking out a little because you know..what if someone tells him he was here before?

voice;

[pepperedsmile]

I'm already working on damage control for Tony as we speak. [A sad sigh.] He's already off at a bar drowning his problems.

It'll be fine, Bela. Are you worried about him finding out about the two of you from before?

text; yep me again although yay there is a combo breaker!

[technetronic]

[This has started to bug him ever since he mentioned Stark Industries to someone.]

Pepper, what's my job title?

[He knows he works, but he's only just realised he has no idea what he is ever since he gave CEO to Pepper.]

text;

[pepperedsmile]

Why the sudden curiosity?

[Although Pepper had been toying with the idea too for some time now. He had never really asked before and even though she was CEO everyone assumed that because it was Tony that he had power title or not.]

not here;

[showmanship]

[It's the day after they reach Ob Holm that Howard strikes.

Certainly enough things are still on edge concerning what happened with Steve and perhaps that's why he needs to do something to take it off his mind since he... alas, cannot do much of anything since he's not a frontlines man. It kind of reminds him of the evacuation of Somarium when he suddenly realized he hadn't had the time to speak with most of the lovely ladies he had associated himself with.

So that's probably why each and every single one of them is finding a bouquet of flowers in their respective living spaces along with a simple box of chocolates.

Except Howard's not rude enough to give all of them the same exact thing.

Pepper's bouquet is tied up with an overlap of a red ribbon and a gold one. Her chocolates are in a square box with an assortment, the kinds with coconut and dark chocolate and fillings.

There's a small card that reads:

Take care of him, Miss Potts. And naturally, yourself as well. Let me know if I can do anything to help either of you.

John's up for it. Sorry I took so long to confirm it with you.

[He had a few... misadventures...]

IC text;

[pepperedsmile]

Not a problem. Donna and I wouldn't have planned anything without hearing back from the both of you.

text;

[amygdalae]

Code Puppy, I believe.

Apparently he's moved on to asking me now.

text;

[pepperedsmile]

Uh, oh.

Have you texted the others?

Dated to sometime when I'm off hiatus to make this official

[technetronic]

[I just really like making these.]

IC | voice; backdated to before Tony gets the dream gate

[powerofthegods]

Miss Potts. [There's no introduction, though his tone is actually fairly conversational. He wonders for a moment if she will know him without checking her call display. The only time he's ever seen her or interacted with her was when he was in Steve's body and she and Bucky so rudely interrupted his intimate time with Peggy.

And he wouldn't have even considered her worth his time, except that Tony Stark cared about her.] I understand you woke up recently, Stark must have been very hurt by your absence. But you are better now, yes?

IC | voice;

[pepperedsmile]

[She wouldn't forget that face and for a moment, Pepper wonders if she should hang up on him and just get JARVIS to block the call. Her lips are tugged into a firm line, and instead she had JARVIS record the call for later use just in case.]

I was a little disappointed to see that certain people hadn't left yet, but yes I'm better. Thank you for asking.

voice; after mistletoe, but before the poisoning

[technetronic]

I did not cheat on you, but events conspired to make me kiss certain people.

voice;

[pepperedsmile]

Normally something like this would make me a little suspicious but considering what's been happening around the city today I understand.

[onsilksheets]

Cocktail night at mine?

[pepperedsmile]

It's like you read my mind.

voice;

[agtcarter]

I could use some shopping advice.

For Valentine's Day.

voice;

[pepperedsmile]

That would make two of us.

[But seriously though - it's good to hear from her gal pal.]

Any ideas yet?

NOT HERE AND I KNOW IT'S NOT THE 14TH YET

[technetronic]

oh my god

[amygdalae]

[It's been a day since that dream from Tony - and his subsequent reaction - and to say that Bruce is worried is a massive understatement. It gnaws at him endlessly, having kept him awake through the night because he can't just not worry after seeing - after hearing something like that.

Considering how he still can't go to the tower, this is the next best way to be sure about things. Its not what he hope he would have to do, but... now is not the time to be held back by his own discomforts. Tony was far more important.]

I'm sorry to interrupt you, Pepper. Tony - is he alright?

text;

[pepperedsmile]

[The reply comes an hour or so later after he sends it, not because she doesn't want to reply, but because she had put a ban on any kind of electronic device for both she and Tony while he had (tried) to sleep. As a result, both Dreamberries had been left outside in the living room while she sat in bed with Tony trying to coax him into getting so rest...or at the very least to close his eyes.]

You're never interrupting. He's...getting some shut eye. Or trying to.

[calculating]

[Well this is the only "Pepper Potts" on the Dreamberry's network, so. This is obviously the person he's looking for here.]

This is Byakuya Togami. Before you ask, we haven't spoken before, however following a conversation with Mr. Stark, I'm interested in hearing more about Stark Industries. To be more specific, I'm interested in your stock.

The sooner you can get back to me, the better.

video; JORDAN WILL YOU STILL LOVE ME IF THIS IS LATE

[pepperedsmile]

[She's a little curious because this hasn't ever happened before. Well, at least not like this but it's not necessarily a bad thing.]

I'd be more than happy to. Are you interested in investing?
