Tony/Pepper (Iron Man) #3: Because it's always been Pepper

Welcome to the Third Tony Stark/Pepper Potts appreciation thread



In the movie, Tony and Pepper are beautifully played by Robert Downey Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow.
Since their first scene in the movie, it was clear that these two are a lot more than boss/assistant. In a world where everyone sees him as "genius, playboy, billionaire", Tony Stark knows he can always count on Pepper Potts to see him as himself. She is the only person he trusts; he has no one but her and he's all she has.

QUOTES
from the movie
Pepper: I need you to sign this before you get on the plane...
Tony: What are you trying to get rid of me for? You got plans?
Pepper: As a matter of fact I do.
Tony: I don't like it when you have plans.
Pepper: I'm allowed to have plans on my birthday.
Tony: It's your birthday?
Pepper: Yes.
Tony: I knew that. Already?
Pepper: Yeah, isn't that strange, same day as last year.
Tony: Well, get yourself something nice from me.
Pepper: I already did.
Tony: And?
Pepper: Oh, it was very nice.
Tony: Yeah?
Pepper: Very tasteful. Thank you, Mr Stark.
Tony: You're welcome, Miss Potts.

Tony: Your eyes are red. Tears for your long lost boss?
Pepper: Tears of joy. I hate job hunting.

Pepper: Don't ever, ever, ever, ever ask me to do anything like that ever again.
Tony: But I don't have anyone but you.

Tony: I have to admit, this is pretty good. Even I don't think I'm Iron Man.
Pepper: You're not Iron Man.
Tony: You know, if I was Iron Man... I'd have this girlfriend, who knew my real identity. She'd be a wreck, she'd always be worried I was gonna die, but she'd be so proud of the man I've become.

from the second movie

Tony: Excellent idea, I just figured this out: you run the company.
Pepper: Yeah, I’m trying to run the company -
Tony: Pepper I need you to run the company – well stop trying to do it and do it.
Pepper: -you will not give me the information that I need in order to do it.
Tony: I need you to do it.
Pepper: I am TRYING to do it but -
Tony: You’re not listening to me -
Pepper: No, you’re not listening to me -
Tony: Pepper, I’m trying to make you CEO. Why won’t you let me?
Pepper: Have you been drinking?
Tony: Uh, clorophyl. I hereby, irrevocably, appoint you chairman and CEO of Stark Industries, effective immediately. Yeah. Done deal. Okay? I’ve actually given this a fair amount of thought, believe it or not. Been doing a bit of head hunting, so to speak, trying to figure out who a worthy successor would be. And then I realized: it’s you. It’s always been you. I thought there’d be a legal issue, but actually as it turns out I’m capable of appointing my successor. My successor being you. (hands her champagne) Take it, just take it.
Pepper: I don’t know what to think.
Tony: Don’t think, drink.

Tony: Mute. He should be giving me a medal, that’s the truth.
Pepper: What is that?
Tony: This is your in-flight meal.
Pepper: Did you just make that?
Tony: Yeah, where do you think I’ve been for three hours?
Pepper: Tony… what are you not telling me?
Tony: I don’t wanna go home. At all. Let’s cancel my birthday party, and uh… we’re in Europe, let’s go to Venice, Chiprianni’s. You remember?
Pepper: Oh, yes.
Tony: It’s a great place to, to… be healthy -
Pepper: I don’t think that this is the right time. We’re in kind of a mess.
Tony: Yeah, but maybe that’s why this is the best time. Cuz we can -
Pepper: Well, I think as the CEO I need to show up.
Tony: As CEO you are entitled to a… leave -
Pepper: A leave?
Tony: A company retreat -
Pepper: A retreat, at a time like this?
Tony: Well I’m just saying, to recharge your batteries and figure it all out.
Pepper: Not everybody runs on batteries, Tony.

Pepper: Does this guy know how to throw a party or what?
Tony: (Into the microphone) I love you.
Pepper: Oh, unbelievable. Well thank you so much, Tony, we all thank you so much for such a wonderful night, and we’re gonna say goodnight now and thank you all for coming.
Tony: No no no no no, we haven’t cut the cake yet…
Pepper: You’re out of control, okay?
Tony: I’m out of control?
Pepper: Trust me on this, okay? It’s time to go to bed.
Tony: You’re out of control gorgeous. C’mon, gimme a smooch.
Pepper: You just peed the suit. That’s not sexy.
Tony: It has a filtration system, you can drink that water.

Tony: Do you know how short life is? And if I’ve never gotten to express – and by the way, this is somewhat revelatory to me – and I don’t care –I mean I care, it would be nice if –look I’m not expecting you to-to – Look here’s what I’m trying to say, I’m just gonna and say it --
Pepper: Let me just stop you right there, because if you say the word ‘I’ one more time I’m going to actually hurl something at your head, I think. I am trying to run a company, do you have any idea what that entails?
Tony: Yes.
Pepper: People are relying on you to be iron Man and you’ve disappeared! And all I’m doing is putting out your fires and taking the heat for it. I am trying to do the job that you are meant to do. Did you bring me strawberries? Did you know there’s only one thing on earth that I’m allergic to?
Tony: Allergic to, strawberries. This is progress pepper, I knew there was a correlation between you and this.
Pepper: I need you -
Tony: I need you too, that’s what I’ve been trying to -
Pepper: - to leave. Now.

Tony: Yes, for the moment I’m not dying. Thank you.
Pepper: What do you mean you’re not dying? Did you just say you’re dying?
Tony: Is that you? Uh, no. I’m not. Not anymore.
Pepper: What’s going on?
Tony: I was going to tell you, I didn’t want to –
Pepper: You were going to tell me? You really were dying?
Tony: You didn’t let me –
Pepper: Why didn’t you tell me that?!
Tony: I was gonna make you an omlette and tell you!
Natasha: Hey, hey – save it for the honeymoon, you’ve got incoming, Tony. Looks like the fight’s coming to you.
Tony: Okay, Pepper -
Pepper: Are you okay now?
Tony: I am fine. Don’t be mad, I will formally apologize later –
Pepper: I am mad!
Tony: - when I’m not fending off a Hammeroid attack.
Pepper: Fine.
Tony: We could’ve been in Venice.
Pepper: Oh, please!

Pepper: Oh my God, I can’t take this anymore!
Tony: You can’t?
Pepper: I can’t take this.
Tony: What do you – look at me!
Pepper: My body literally cannot handle the stress. I never know if you’re gonna kill yourself or wreck the whole company -
Tony: See, I think I did okay!
Pepper: I – I quit, I’m resigning. That’s it.
Tony: What did you just say? You’re done? Well, that’s surprising – no it’s not surprising. I get it. You don’t have to make any excuses.
Pepper: I’m not making excuses, I’m just saying -
Tony: Well actually you were just making excuses, but I’m saying, you don’t have to -
Pepper: No I wasn’t making excuses, cuz I’m actually very justified in –
Tony: No, you deserve better.
Pepper: Well…
Tony: You’ve taken such good care of me. I’ve been in a tough spot and you got me through it. So. Right?
Pepper: Thank you. Thank you for understanding.
Tony: No it’s okay. Uh, let’s talk clean-up.
Pepper: Well I’ll handle the transition -
Tony: Okay, well what about the press? Cuz I mean you were only CEO for like a week -
Pepper: Well with you it’s like dog years.
Tony: I know.
Pepper: It’s like the President - *SMOOCH*
Tony: Weird…
Pepper: No, it’s not weird.
Tony: It’s okay, right? Yeah, run that by me again. *SMOOCH*
Rhodey: I think it was weird. You guys look like two seals fighting over a grape.
Pepper: I - had just quit, so -
Rhodey: You dno’t have to do that. I heard the whole thing.
Tony: You should get lost.
Rhodey: I was here first. Get a roof.
Tony: I thought you were out of one liners.
Rhodey: That was my last one.
Tony: You kicked ass back there, by the way.
Rhodey: Yeah, you too. Listen, my car got taken out in the explosion, I’m gonna have to hold onto your suit for a minute, okay?
Tony: Not okay. Not okay with that.
Rhodey: Wasn’t a question.
Tony: How’re you gonna resign? I don’t accept.
Pepper: **giggles**

from the novel
A word floats around his consciousness. Not a word: a name.
Pepper.
He has no idea why in the world that name would creep into his mind during what might well be the very last moment of his life [...]

He [...] wondered, not for the first time, if Tony Stark was aware of just how completely, totally, and madly in love with him Pepper Potts was. For the matter, he wondered if Pepper herself knew.

"Wait a minute. I got to ask you something. I'm dead serious about this," said Tony, and his voice dropped to an entrez-nous level. "I'm not kidding. Am I losing my mind, or is Pepper really cute? Do you think she's attractive and interesting, or is it just that her hair is down? I've been out of the game for a while."

In a low, angry voice, while never taking her eyes from the road, Pepper said, "If anything happens to Tony because you were busy playing twenty questions with me, so help me God, I'll kill you."
"Threatening a federal agent is a crime."
She looked away from the road long enough to lance him with a glare. "Do I look like I give damn?"
"No. No, you don't," admitted Coulson, who was suddenly glad he had a gun to provide self-defense, just in case Pepper lived up to her threat... which, he suspected, she might well do.

from the comics
Pepper: The Starkdynamics Gala starks in two hours whether you're here or not-- but considering how much has gone into the project, and the entire paycheck that I spent on the McQueen gown I'm wearing--
Tony: I'm on my way.

Tony: The dress looks good.
Pepper: Thank you.
Tony: Know where it'd look better?
Pepper: On your floor?
Tony: On my floor.
Pepper: That line actually work?
Tony: Sometimes.
Pepper: You date morons.
Tony: You know any smart, hot girl on the market?
Pepper: I'll keep my eyes peeled. You'd think at a big gala like this there'd be somebody, right?

Hi everyone, I'm jo Since we only have this thread, I thought i would introduce myself. How is everyone?

I have a couple reasons, don't know if they're any good

Because Pepper was the first person Tony thought about when the droids were going to explode

Because Pepper was willing to risk her life to get Tony the suit
