Pepper gives a small, breathless laugh as Tony slides the ring on her finger. It really is beautiful, but she's determined not to be that cliche bride-to-be who grabs her own hand to ooh and aah over it. At least she won't do that in front of an audience. She rolls her eyes in good-natured amusement at Tony's lines, shaking her head fondly. Thank god for Steve; Pepper knows how Tony can go on and on with this little show, especially since he has some drinks in him -- she is, as always, less inclined for the attention than he is and would rather continue off the stage.
But she doesn't give any outward signs of being bothered, instead playing along and pointing a thumb in Steve's direction, nodding with an expression that clearly says he has a point.
"Considering just earlier today you were complaining about feeling your age..." she chimes in at Steve's second remark, making sure to lean in for the mic to catch her words and eliciting more laughs from the crowds. Before Tony can retort, she cups his cheek and kisses his lips, keeping it light and PG appropriate. There's instant, riotous applause and whooping catcalls, and she can't help but giggle a little against his mouth.
"Okay, wrap it up, honey," she suggests pointedly for Tony's ears only when she pulls back, though her eyes shine with happiness and the smile on her lips is genuine.
