"'Sokay," Pepper mumbles into his robe, already feeling half-asleep as she cuddles closer still, curling tighter around his back and tangling their legs, slipping her hand inside his robe and laying her palm against warm skin, right over his heart, kissing his neck before settling back against his shoulder, rubbing her cheek into the soft terrycloth like a contented cat, giving a little hum of pleasure.
"Hm?" she hums again, inquisitively this time when he speaks again, a beat later than she should have. She's all ready to nod off, moments away from doing just that in fact -- the request registers belatedly. And though it causes a prick of shame, she's not sure she's up for anything particularly sensible right now when she just wants to nap. But even half-asleep, she picks up on the anxiety in his voice. Trying to shake off the drowsiness, she struggles to come up with something, her thumb stroking back and forth against his chest.
"Did you know that movie theater popcorn costs more per ounce than filet mignon?" she finally digs a random fact somewhere from the back of her head, slurring slightly with sleepiness. "The price is over 1200% more than its production costs."
