This is a very cool twist on the whole Iron Man universe - Kudos for your creativity! I particularly like how your Pepper keeps his Toni in line. ...and furthermore I will eat all your chocolates>" *smirk* That's so great!

I will say, though, that I've never met a man who can multi-task well enough to be a kick-butt PA. And I say this as someone who's been a PA: The sheer quantity of stuff that you have to keep track of for an absent-minded boss...*eyeroll* Sometimes you really do wonder if they'd lose their heads if they weren't already attached!

Good job on a cool idea, though!

Hee, thankyou!

Heh, probably true. But THAT SAID; you know that even a male Pepper would be so full of awesome that he'd be able to do it. ;)
(And you have my sympathy for a job that sounds quite exhausting. D: Right, another job off the list my lazy arse isn't going to consider after uni...)

You're right, a male Pepper would be full of awesome! Thankfully, I'm not a PA at the moment. Well, at least not a paid one, exactly...What's the new title for an at-home mom? CHO for "Chief Household Officer"? *grin* Dealing with a a 5 year old who's homeschooling, a 2 year old who's toilet training and running the records side of my husband's business uses pretty much all the same skills, I just can't leave the "office" at 5 pm! *grin*

You have a wonderful gift for writing, by the way. Please keep it up!

!! You have more respect from me that you can imagine. (I do not believe that stay at home mothers hear that enough!)
I'm signed up as a volunteer at our local Sunday School, and the kids are darlings, they really are, but after two hours with them, I'm completely exhausted. And you have to do this ALL THE TIME. WITH OTHER STUFF.
I'm faint from the mere thought.

I for one do not agree with the male Pepper idea. The very thought makes me shudder, and I have to muster all my strength not to forget the good-looking Paltrow..
But another excellent fanfic. Your style of writing changes from each fic, so you keep it interesting. Well done.

[alaceron]

Hahahaha.
Yeah, a couple of my friends said the same thing; they just couldn't picture Pepper as male. Oh well!

Thankyou! =)I'm glad you kept going even with ManPepper giving you the heebie-jeebies.

I'm a writing chameleon! Style changes with the content, and the unfortunate thing about that is that I therefore have no writing style of my own! (I'm also a horrible mimic. I made the mistake of reading Jane Austen while I took my one and only creative writing class and had to consciously stop myself from writing in Regency English for weeks. D: It did mean, however, that my language was finally as pompous as myself 8D)
