The two women stood with remarkably similar expressions on their faces as they watched their respective bosses tinker with a projector pack.
"I did have you sign release forms, didn't I?" Pepper asked out of the corner of her mouth.
"Oh yes," Janice said nodding her head. "It was the first thing you mentioned after you said 'hello'."
"Good," Pepper said. Then quickly added, "I mean, not that there's any reason in the universe why this shouldn't succeed."
Janice chuckled. "You've got a machine made by Tony Stark himself in the hands of Captain James T. Kirk. That's all the reason the universe needs."
She waved feebly when Kirk flashed her a grin, while Pepper awkwardly returned Tony's thumbs up.
"It'll be fine," Pepper said.
"Oh, I'm sure it will be," Janice said.
Silence descended while they watched Stark placed the pack on Kirk's back and little lights started to come on.
"I really don't think I can watch this," Janice said.
"I've got an amazing expresso machine in my office," Pepper said. "I've also got a really good scheduling app that Jarvis created that I'd be happy to let you have."
"You're a lifesaver," Janice said. "Yes to all of the above."
They headed up the stairs happily chatting and ignoring the sounds of chaos that had just begun behind them.
