Okay, take me to the slash.
(I do not mean to denigrate Pepper Potts or her ficworthiness. I definitely also want there to be fic about Pepper Potts being awesome. The right author could even sell me on Pepper/Tony, I'm sure.
But COME ON. EVEN THE COMPUTER WAS GAY.)

Date: 2008-05-12 06:48 am (UTC)I totally went and saw Iron Man again last night for basically three scenes:
1) Tony Stark getting sweaty and being all blacksmith-y in a cave (they were TRAPPED in a CAVE! it's like they made a movie just for me!)
2) Rhodes hugging Stark when they find him in the desert
3) Okay, pretty much every scene where you can see the mini arc reactor glowing through Stark's shirt (cyborg kink, you say?)
Also: Pepper Potts/Elizabeth Weir. (Don't ask me, it's the first thing that popped into my head. But seriously, it wouldn't even have to be AU!)

Date: 2008-05-12 06:47 pm (UTC)1) Yup *
2) Pretty much
3) Well, now I'll be watching for that
*The only problem with 1) was that I also spent twenty minutes being annoyed every time What's-His-Name the Brave Wisecracking Magical Arab said or did anything cool, because I kept thinking about how nice it would be if this were the kind of world where his character got to leave the cave alive for a change.
...that would be so hot! Would Pepper be teamed up with Weir in this scenario for some kind of Earth-imperiling plot-related reason? Because that's straight where I went, where she would be employing her usual awesome Gal Friday powers in a situation of more than usual PERIL, almost like Billy to Weir's Roslin. And everyone underestimates how badass they are and they quietly go about saving the world. (Tony can help. If he promises not to make any threesome jokes.)
