ooc question meme
Sep. 6th, 2012 07:22 amAsk me questions about my character(s) and I will answer. The meme is entirely OOC, questions and answers both. Use it as a fun time to find about about character's choices, motivations, feelings, actions, or anything else you've been wondering.
i am sick, super tired, and whiney. so i will try to get to these, or i may never finish this meme at all, but.
applies to both pepper and clint.

I imagine that her job is very long hours, weekends, holidays, and that in itself doesn't lend well to having a regular social life with girl friends and dating and all the other things that would be classified as one. Plans are hard to make and keep, unless Tony happens to be out of town, and even when they are, she's likely very tired at the end of the day and would rather curl up on a couch with some popcorn and watch something stupid than deal with more people.
A social life to her would definitely feel like another job, forcing herself to get out there and mingle. Not that she doesn't have one at all. She has lunch dates and shopping with Janet, coffee with Natasha. She went to the museum with Steve. I just don't think it's a very active one.
I think on a subconscious, too, she is also self-sabotaging about the biggest part of any attempt at a social life: dating. Because, let's face it, there's some small (big) part of her that would like Tony to be in a place where they can move into a relationship.
So basically, yes, but not a very active one.
