Pepper is very, very good at compartmentalizing.
Before Afghanistan, before Iron Man, before it became too dangerous to love Tony for a host of new reasons instead of the ones she'd known about before she accepted the position of his PA, she brought herself off to thoughts him. Once. Only once.
She'd been working for him about eight months and had by that time realized that a.) she loved her job a lot b.) any kind of actual sexual experience with him would be terrible - not the experience, the experience itself would be quite.. memorable, but the immediate aftermath which would be humiliating and embarrassing and lead to her losing her job (see a.) and c.) Tony Stark had depth of sexy that readers of Rolling Stone and GQ would never understand, because they'd never had an over-caffeinated, sleep-deprived genius trying to explain phD level mechanical engineering to them at 8:23 a.m. while trying to herd said genius into a shower because machine oil is not an acceptable styling choice for a meeting with Stark Industries board of

Question - I had an idea for a story for you, but it could go a couple of ways and some of them aren't quite on your list so I wanted to ask. If our lovely lady Pepper accidentally got sex pollened and Tony was taking very good care of her, but hey, he's only human and Pepper is needing quite a lot right now, any objections/interest to him bringing Steve in to help? Or would you rather Tony solve the problem himself (with science!)?

Me too! I saw this meme show up when I was on break at work and had this flash of temptation to pretend that I was sick so I could go home and write.
(Also, if I'm reading the time stamps right -and feel free to correct me- you got a fic twenty minutes after posting your entry. ♥)
