“Keep talking to the therapist, I'm sure he's been helping Tony.” Pepper said softly but earnestly. She felt so bad that he was still having so much trouble, but it wasn't like things had changed much from the sounds of it. Her being there only meant he sometimes attacked her rather than the walls. “you don't have to get me those flowers. And you don't have to be sorry either Tony. The truth is... I just... I just can't right now. I can't try to help you, and help you run the company and deal with the Avengers... The media a few days ago... The store told them Stephanie was buying all this wedding stuff with your card and it was a mess. I was getting phone calls and all the press wanted was answers about what was going on... The whole Extremis thing too. I think it would be better if I just, focused on Stark Industries and myself for a while Tony. I know Steph will be there to keep you company and the rest of the Avenger's will support you. I'll have Jarvis keep an eye on you too. But I can't be the one to do it right now.” Pepper said her voice tight with emotion.
