The less I say about finals, the better. Um. Distract me, please? I want to write Pepper/Tony, but I don't know what to write, exactly. So, uh... prompts, I guess? Give me a

"Miss Potts," Tony says, "please remember to knock before coming into my room."
"Oh," she says, flattening the folder against her chest. "Yes. I'm sorry, Mr Stark. I didn't realize you were--" Don't say it, don't say it. "--busy."
Tony makes a noise that might be a laugh, might be a grunt, might be both. The woman he has pinned against his bedroom wall says, "To-ny," in a plaintive hiss. "Who is she?"
Pepper stares at the wall above his head. It is, she thinks, a very attractive wall as walls go. Evenly painted. Sturdy. Oh, my God, sturdy? She curls her toes and tries not to panic. She thinks: Can he see my face? Why didn't he lock the door? Does he even know her name?
"Miss Potts," Tony says. "Do you need something?"
"Um," she says. Pepper thinks he probably picked her up at one of the casinos. Pepper thinks he probably made her feel beautiful and special and different from all the other girls he's brought home for the night, and Pepper thinks he won't even ask her to escort the girl out in the morning, but she'll do it anyway.
Tony shifts his weight. From the corner of her eye Pepper sees him slide his hand down the woman's thigh. She sees him draw the woman's long, smooth leg up against his hip, sees him stabilize his weight with her own.
Pepper thinks, Oh, fuck it. Pepper says, "Yes, as a matter of fact, I do. Your lawyer needs to speak with you about the statements published in the Washington Post on Friday--"
"--grossly overstated," Tony is saying. "He's blowing it way, way out of proportion--"
"--Vanity Fair wants to know if you're still interested in doing the spread for the May issue--"
"As soon as I'm done here, I'll look at my schedule."
"You said that yesterday," Pepper says, rapping her fingernails against the folder, "and you still haven't--"
"--and I'm saying it now - make a note - so please, don't rush me."
"I need a yes or no on the invite to the Secret Policeman's Ball--"
"Yes," Tony says. "Yes? Yes. Is that everything?"
"Not everything," says Pepper.
"Well, it'll have to wait," he says. "I'm a little busy at the moment."
The woman laughs and Pepper looks without really meaning to, just long enough to see Tony press his lips to her throat, mouth open, teeth scraping her skin. Pepper turns away.
Tony leans up, kissing the woman's chin, her jaw. "Did you need something else, Miss Potts?"
"No, Mr Stark," Pepper says. "That was all."
"Good night, Miss Potts."
"Good night, Mr Stark."
Pepper makes sure the door is locked when she pulls it shut behind her, and if she walks a little faster on the way to her car than she did the night before, she tells herself it's because of the cold.

"--Vanity Fair wants to know if you're still interested in doing the spread for the May issue--"
yeah, smut-filled thought there. does the may issue have triplets? :D j/k. even though i'm pretty sure that's not what VF meant, it sure was funny. the thought of vanity fair as an escort service for very special clientele ^__^
Hahaha, argh! I didn't even think of that. I don't know whether I should feel relieved or ashamed of myself for not taking advantage of that accidental innuendo. *g*
I love how this is the closest thing to porn I've written in, like, three years. Two years? When did Kingdom Hearts 2 come out? Anyway, A WHILE. Thank you, RDJ!

ok so i came over here randomly via del.icio.us, and holy moly, dude. i was totally jonesing for something exactly like this--it's so exquisitely hot and in-character and sharp and funny. just perfect. i could absolutely 100% see it in my head, and it was a really happy place for my head to be. this goes for all three of these ficlets, but this one is possibly my favorite because, well, nnnaughh.
so in sum, wonderful job--i will definitely be creepily checking this post for updates!
So that is basically the most amazing thing anyone has ever said to me. Thank you so much! I am super-glad you enjoyed it and I am still kind of flaily over your comment, and by 'kind of,' I mean 'kind of totally.' ♥ ♥ ♥
ahahah well it was totally true! in fact, it might even have been an understatement, since i didn't mention how i can completely HEAR them in my head also. plus it continues to be true, cause you just keep hitting them out of the park. i'm just so delighted i get to read these.

Oh man, as a former assistant, this is an excellent distillation of the multitude of sins covered by "worse things you've caught me doing."
