Happy Halloween!

Well, a little early. A Halloween challenge was posted at [livejournal.com profile] tonypepper, and the bunny that jumped me had serious fangs. Parthian Shot is PG, slightly Tony/Pepper, and as creepy as I could make it. And it owes title, tagline, and banner to [livejournal.com profile] cincoflex! Thanks also to [livejournal.com profile] amonitrate for issuing the challenge.

Seriously creepy. Great concept. I don't want to go anywhere near my shower now. Yeah for Tony's kill switch obsession!

Thanks! Yeah, I figured if one's going to build a robot, one should be able to turn it OFF if necessary...

Oh, VR, this was deliciously creepy. As someone who occasionally feels technology is out to get me, that totally worked for me! *g*

I quite like the fire & ice scenarios devised for them - very appropriate. And the lingering uncertainty that the virus had been purged. I'm thinking Tony is going to be a little less enamoured of his toys for awhile.

Nicely done - and kudos to Cinco on the banner!

Thank you for the Halloween treat. *hugs*

Hah, glad someone caught the fire and ice bit! Thank you. Not being able to trust Jarvis has to be unnerving!

Er, I realize that I might be a little late (not a MONTH late, at least!), but I found Palmer's Kiss today and spent about three hours reading it. Then I found your LJ page and read this story!

Both are wonderful, and in their own ways. Your writing style is one that reflects Tony and Pepper flawlessly, and one that represents the very best of the fandom. Thanks for the great reads! My day was certainly improved by them. :D

*blush!* Thank you! That means a lot. This fandom has a lot of aspects, and if I'm nailing just one of them, I'm doing well!

As for late, well, I was latER with your marvelous "Counterpart"--I let reviewing go far too long.

Thanks again!
