Hey, boss. I have a question. Just one.

What are we doing?

First you make this journal, then you pick a crap chute of a point to pull me from. But you said we were moving forward, so good for us. Then you tell me you're not ready for a game, that I'm not ready for a game, and we're not even moving forward. No negotiations, nothing. D'you know how ready I am for a drink right now?

That was rhetorical. Still at one question.

Anyway, I thought this was going to be a short term thing? A fling. You know, get all that energy out and let me catch a break for once. Now we've got new accessories and you're spending real time on this, which is distinctly not the same as a fling.

So, back to my question. What are we doing?

Yeah, muns don't seem to know the whole thing behind short term. Sorry Tony.

[Hey he might not be her Tony Stark, but there's no way not to pick one out in a crowd.]

Hey, Pep. [It's good. He's actually kind of relieved to see any Pepper.]

It's fine. I guess I just had more faith in her... We were supposed to have an agreement.

[She gets that a lot.]

Sometimes things get in the way with them. I know that's the case with mine, who has yet to finish her research for my canon point. [Pepper would swear that her mun is stalling for the sake of stalling, not like she doesn't have the stack of comics already.]

[Bet she does. Good girl. Take charge.]

The only thing getting in the way with this one is attitude. And before you say anything? I know. Pot, kettle, the whole color analogy which is wrong, by the way, and totally outdated. But, anyway, the point is, I should know, right? So. Attitude.

Getting kind of sick of it.

Then I won't say anything. [fighting a giggle? maybe] At least she's letting you out though.

Mine still feels a little worried that my voice is off.

You're a hero. [Yes, that was meant to be slightly ironic.] Letting me out or keeping me on the roster? Because this feels a lot like drafting.

Well, for what it's worth, you sound fine from here.

No, I'm just the assistant to one. [She'll stick to that story too] Nothing wrong with being on a roster. Means they still remember you're there. I would think you'd like the attention.

Thank you sir.

Right. That's how I would have it.

[Ideally, he'd rather she not be involved. Not directly, anyway. In fact, if he had his druthers... Well. Anyway.]

You're right. I love the attention. [No, not really.] I wish I could get more of the attention that actually meant they were planning something good.

Don't call me sir, Potts.

Good, because I know I wouldn't be able to do what you do.

Well I know mun has me at a muse box, it's at least a place to get out now and then if she remembers I'm there [Yes might be shooting her mun a look] But plotting is a little slow over there.

[She gives a small grin]

Now you're just sucking up.

Keep going, though. I might as well soak it all up while I can.

At least you can say yours is plotting.

Am not. [Have a pouty look, which doesn't match the smile in her eyes]

Oh... [She gives him a mock angered look]

Trying to at least. I think she might be tempted to throw me into a game with all the kid groups. Only because the Tony there is in way over his head. Won't lie not looking forward to it. The kids are okay, just it would mean updating the canon point she has for me. [And Pepper knows about what happens and would rather not have some of it her canon thanks]

[Not even batting an eye. Flattery will get only smug comments, Potts.]

That's a start. She's got a goal, and that's more than I can say for this crazy driver. I can't really argue against updating, either. The best direction to head is always forward, no matter what happens.
