For all that she prefers a more monochromatic wardrobe for the office, Pepper's event wear has more color to it. For tonight she's picked a knee-length dress in pale yellow that complements Tony's own outfit, her hair piled on top of her head in a loose chignon.
"Not every dress I own was a gift from you," she quips lightly without pausing in her task, adjusting the straps as Tony steps over to zip her up. She leans back against his chest as he wraps his arms around her, lifting a hand up to his face and turning her head so their cheeks are touching. Sighing, she enjoys their closeness for a moment, thankful that he's here; that he's better, that they're finally moving onto the next chapter in their lives.
Her happiness colors the small laugh she breathes out at his comment about sending everyone home. "What, on your birthday? I'd never hear the end of it. All your adoring fans would be so very disappointed."
