Oh my god, you were SERIOUS about the tag. Ahaha! *glee*

I really do love this story.

[mclittlebitch]

Of course I was! It is, after all, your fault.

I'm glad you love it.

This is possibly the best thing I have ever read, oh my lord. I will never, ever stop laughing over:

And without the camera’s evidence, it is Mr. Stark’s word against his when he suggests that this was in fact a “tender life-changing moment” between Mr. Stark and his creation and Ms. Potts and Lt. Col. Rhodes could “never understand their love.”

And

I work with geeks, I dig geeks, he’s not just a geek, he’s, like, King of the Geeks. Which would not in any way discourage me from hitting that like the fist of an angry god. Quite the opposite really.

FIST OF AN ANGRY GOD. Thank you, thank you so, so much for that.

Oh, wow, thank you! That means a lot coming from someone whose fic I've really enjoyed.

Sara is, I must admit, something of a Mary Sue. Because Pepper needs an old college buddy who tells it like it is, and who wouldn't hit that like the fist of an angry god?

[mclittlebitch]

I should probably mention that "fist of an angry god" is regrettably not original. I'm not sure where I picked it up. In the first draft Sara used "bang that like a screen door", but that's slightly less funny.

This is so genius, I can't even describe how genius it is!

I can't pick a favorite! *astonished* I can always pick a favorite, but this time... nope.

It might be Emma. It might be Bruce. But it could so easily be the other three.

Just... awesome!

[mclittlebitch]

Emma was something of a wildcard, I wasn't sure anyone would like that bit. So thank you!

The Tony and Bruce section was originally longer, but I realized I could never reach the perfection that is the Iron Man-Batman interaction in this episode of I'm a Marvel... And I'm a DC.

[ficwize]

omg! I can't stop laughing!

I love you just a little bit for reccing that to me. *cries from the laughing*

"I don't have childhood trauma."

"And I don't have herpes."

*dies*

[mclittlebitch]

I figured anyone who appreciates Emma Frost would dig that.

I've watched it at least a dozen times, and I still crack up at the end. And at "I give people the impression I'm a jerk." "I give people panic attacks."

Tony Stark: Might give you syphigonnaherpmydia. Probably worth it.

Hahaha OMG the Tony/Emma is hot (okay the image of him going down on one knee for a lady is quite delicious), Tony/Bruce Wayne makes me laugh, Tony/Rhodey is sooooo Tony/Rhodey (if you get what I mean), Tony/Robot and Jarvis is a great fun read, and Tony and Pepper flirting over email is the best end to the 5 stories. Great work, it was an awesome read :D

[mclittlebitch]

The idea of that section was the one that inspired the whole thing. That image played a big part in it actually getting written.

Tony/Rhodey is sooooo Tony/Rhodey (if you get what I mean)
I do, and it was a total suprise to me. I meant that bit to be gen, but apparently Rhodey had other ideas.

[juniper200]

I enjoyed this immensely, particularly Nos. 2 and 5. Thanks for posting!

[mclittlebitch]

Thanks! I suspected people would like 5 best, I'm so glad 2 worked for you. It was originally longer, but really those 10 words summed things up.
