[ While the situation is not really ideal, Pepper supposes it could be worse. She isn't exactly the camping sort, but given that there was never going to be much choice in the matter, she has adjusted fairly well, albeit she just misses being warm and not bathed in an unsettling shade of red light all the time. Having Tony here with her, however, is a pretty nice bonus. It's nice to have him around in a time of minor crisis, as opposed to watching him run around and engage in crazy activities. Of course, Pepper had and indeed still has no idea that this is about to come to an end, but it was pretty lovely while it lasted.
As Tony tries to rouse her she resists, only very vaguely aware of the kiss, entirely more aware of the daftness of what he just uttered. Instead of opening her eyes she scrunches them shut just that little bit tighter, burrowing against him for a moment, the arm draped around his waist trying to hold him that little bit closer, her voice a sleepy mumble that isn't entirely pleased to have been roused and reminded of how utterly cold it is right now. ]
Tell me I was dreaming and you didn't just actually say that.
