eep. voice testing.

[tearsofjoy]

I already take orders from one drama queen. I know you mean well, but honestly, Tony is more than I can handle at the moment.

....That came out wrong, didn't it?

[agtcarter]

Having troubles with your mundane?

[tearsofjoy]

She's being a little bossy, that's all.

[agtcarter]

The majority of them are. Which is rather unfortunate, admittedly.

[tearsofjoy]

It really is. But I guess it makes them feel special. [She smiles.]

[agtcarter]

[That draws a laugh from Peggy.] Yes, even mundanes need the occasional ego stroke.

[tearsofjoy]

Oh, I know all about ego stroking. More than I care to admit actually. It's the most important job requirement when working for Mr. Stark.

[agtcarter]

That's odd. Howard never mentioned that he had an assistant working for him. Although I suppose he likes to keep a few things secret.

[Yep, she doesn't know anything about Tony >_<]

[tearsofjoy]

Oh no, not Howard Stark. I work for his son, Tony. Howard died years ago.

[agtcarter]

A son? [Blinks.] Sorry, it's just the Howard I know wouldn't be the type to settle down.

That means you're from the future.

[tearsofjoy]

Well, he did and now that son is CEO of Stark Industries. Sorry to disappoint.

From the future? What are you talking about?

[agtcarter]

No, I'm not disappointed. Just surprised.

Well, I knew Howard back in the 1940s. And if you know his son...I'm assuming you're from ahead of me.

[tearsofjoy]

Wow, that's...weird. Who are you exactly?

[agtcarter]

Agent Margaret Carter. Who might you be?

[tearsofjoy]

Pepper Potts. Nice to meet you.

[agtcarter]

Lovely to meet you as well, Miss Potts. How long have you worked for Mr. Stark?

[tearsofjoy]

Longer than I'd care to admit. [She laughs.] How did you meet Tony's father? If you don't mind me asking...

[agtcarter]

Howard and I worked together for quite some time. [There's a tiny smile.] He is certainly an interesting man to work with.

[tearsofjoy]

I imagine so. His son is interesting to work with as well. Never a dull moment.

[agtcarter]

Does he often cause explosions?

[humdrumvee]

He has that effect, doesn't he.

[tearsofjoy]

[She smiles.] Unfortunately, yes. But that's Tony for you.

[textbooknarcissist]

Honestly Pep? I'm hurt. Although, you can totally handle me any time. Just, you know, throwing that out there.

[tearsofjoy]

[She raises at eyebrow at 'Pep'] I'm sorry, Mr. Stark. I'll be more gentle next time.

No, thank you. It would be too physically exhausting. Gotta save my strength so I can do all your errands.[She grins.]
