Recap

She relaxes knowing he'll be awake before he leaves she gives him a small teasing smile, "how will I know you're gonna get this message if you two are in the middle of this lovers quarrel"

He gives her a look "you my dear are the one thing we agree on." With that he closes the door leaving Toni to herself.

Rolling over in bed Toni smiles, "Good job Jarvis"

"Thank you miss, it's good to have you back"

-------

Stephans arms are crossed his face holding a disappointed frown.

"Toni"

"Stephan"

"TONI"

"Stephannn"

Pepper laughs, "We have heard this happen a thousand times."

Rhodes sits up with a smirk, "At one point Toni started answering after the same number of name calls consistently, and we told her about it, which made her think too hard about it and mess it all up UNTIL she forgot she knew and started doing it all over again!"

"Can anyone else make that make sense?" Shuri tries.

He laughs but gives them a look when they just stare at him.

Dionysus slams his hand on the table, "Well isn't that just fascinating!" His lips twitch up when he noticed Zeus snickering at the comment.

Rhodes looks offended, "Hey that was funny, Toni probably thou-"

"Psst Pooh Bear."

"Not right now Toni" He waves her off.

" psst psst Honey Bunches" Rhodes finally turns wondering why she was interrupting him, "What"

She tries to whisper, "well it's not funny" His face scrunches and before he can protest she shakes her head.

"Toni!"

She finally looks away from her work, "what Stephan?!"

He narrows his eyes at her, "When was the last time you slept?"

She rolls her eyes going back to her work, "why does it matter"

Bucky laughs knowing what that look means.

His eyes widen reading in-between the lines, "you don't remember!?"

Toni sighs attempting to appease him, "If I needed sleep my bod—"

Bruce gives Toni a playful look, "for all the times you've tried to use that argument, has it ever worked?"

She flips him off, "No"

"Wrong!" He throws his hands up when she tries again, "But then wh-"

"No! just no." He gives her an incredulous face, "who's the doctor here?"

She starts, "well technically--"

Apollo nods taking in the information understanding what he was signing up for, "you really are the worst patient"
