I had a ton of fun writing Movieverse Pepper. She's just a blast, and I adore the inside of her head. I liked the Movie 1 interaction between her and Tony, but movie 2... Just didn't work. She spent the whole movie Being The Responsible One, and that's a death sentence for a relationship.

:D Glad to provide some diversity! For the most part, it's just easier plot-wise to make various slashable characters bisexual. Like you, I was thrilled when they didn't give Natasha a het relationship in the movie. I totally expected her to at least get a Tony-kiss. Instead, she was awesome all on her own! \o/

The surprise attack I wasn't sure about. Classically there should have been a build up. I'd decided to write this as if it were one of the Iron Man movies, but with Pepper's PoV instead of Tony's. The attack was part of Tony's story, not Pepper's, and I'd already created a running theme of Tony Not Telling Pepper This Stuff, so... There's little clues dropped (Nick's comments, the crossed line Jarvis finds, suspicious remodeling, and the missing scene has Notable Tattoos), but I really needed Pepper to remain clueless.

I blame Valtyr for all appearances of the word "ninja". It wasn't even on my radar until we had a squee-fest about Red-haired Super-spy Ninja Babes.

♥ Thank you for reading! I'm glad you liked it!
