"Do you?" The blond slipped into a plush chair, cupping the coffee in her hands and leaned back. It was her small attempt to relax and after sipping her drink, she felt a bit more calm and in control. Offering Pepper a small smile as she left in gratitude for the coffee, she turned her attention back to her fellow genius, allowing her blue eyes to linger on his own, displaying more courage than she felt at the present time.
At his other comment involving stumbling in, she managed to hid the small flush behind locks of her blond hair, sweeping it away only when she was sure her cheeks didn't hold any evidence that the comment had actually affected her somewhat. Not like it mattered, she had blushed enough that he was sure to know anyway. She cleared her throat, setting her coffee down and leaned forward, hands folded in her lap, one leg over the other and a confident expression on her face...she hoped.
His question could have been taken two ways and possibly more, but the genius didn't want to ponder it. Her cheeks would really be on fire then. " It is more of a offer really. I' am currently part of the Fantastic Four as you are aware. However..." she bit her lip in thought for a moment. "I was wondering if it would be possible for me to work with you and your team on some things. Nothing crazy, not all the time...but I want to be, um...needed."
