[Pepper rubs a hand over her face, sighing]

You know, when I said that I would need three of me to manage my and Tony's increased schedules I didn't mean that to be taken literally.

[She drops her hand, looking very unamused as another Pepper walks by behind her talking on the phone.]

No, no, no. I told you the meeting was scheduled for Friday, not today. [pause] No he's not available now. If he were available at a moment's notice there wouldn't be a point to making appointments in the first place, now, would there?[pause] He'll be there tomorrow by three.

[Other Pepper hangs up the phone and glances over at the screen before it rings again. She rolls her eyes, answering it and walking out of the room. The Pepper sitting in front of the computer makes a face]

As useful as this is does anyone know how long this virus is going to last?

((ooc: Pepper's got the power of Replication. Obvs blue is Other Pepper)

It should be four days, Miss Potts.

[ms_potts]

Four days of me myself and I... give or take a few. Lovely.

Were you affected by this?

[wormhole]

You'll get quite a bit of work done, at least?

Not that I know. I think another virus skipped me.

[ms_potts]

[She chuckles] Yes, well, at least I'm getting some benefit out of this mess.

Wait... they can skip you?

[p_a_r_a_d_o_x]

Usually virus last 2 or fours days. This is a...unusual one.

[video forever]

[ms_potts]

To say the least. [She sighs] Well here's hoping this one leans more towards the former. As useful as it is I'm not too keen on watching myself run around the house for four days.

[p_a_r_a_d_o_x]

Hope is all we have when ti comes to this community. Think about her as an useful twin.

[ms_potts]

That's reassuring, thank you. [she smirks] And triplet, actually. There are three of me at the moment. At least it's meant I get my first real day off in months.

[howbadcanibe]

[Because this happened to him during the evil twin virus..] That other you is not trying to kill you, is she?

[ms_potts]

[Way to make Pepper PARANOID, Once. Her eyes get wide]

No. Why? Could she do that? Do you think she's going to? Is that really something that could happen?

[howbadcanibe]

[He wants to make sure nothing happens to you! :/ he's giving advice.] I don't know for sure.

Mine was dressed differently and behaved in a weird way. Yours looks exactly like you.

[ms_potts]

They both look just like me and seem to be doing the same work I'd be doing today.

[she frowns] As far as I've seen they're me just... Well... Duplicated

[rockstark]

[pre-coffee Tony is not the most aware Tony in the world... and thanks to being up half the night reading up on wormholes, Einstein-Rosen bridges, and anything else related to quantum physics he could find to help him understand how this community thing worked, he was waking up well past his usual crack-of-dawn time. he's staggering out of the bathroom to see Pepper hanging one of his freshly dry-cleaned suits up in his closet]

Mornin', Pep.

[he pulls a tank top out of his bureau and throws it on to go with his sweatpants, blundering out into the hallway. as he shoves his arms through the holes, he notices her walking toward him on the phone]

Mornin', Pep.

[and then, finally, blessedly, he makes it out to the kitchen -- and as he's waiting for the Keurig machine to percolate, he realizes what he's seeing. the third Pepper Potts in less than a minute. it's a good thing those brewers have an automated pour function, or his mug would be overflowing right now]



..... Mornin'. ... Pep.

[ms_potts]

[Luckily for Tony, Pepper had anticipated something like this and it was the original Pepper leaning against the counter and sipping her own coffee. She sighs, giving him an exasperated look.]

Good morning, Tony.

[rockstark]

[snagging his mug from the brewer, Tony fished out the sugar]

Lemme guess. Virus?

[ms_potts]

[Deadpan] What was your first clue?

[voice]

[likethetragedy]

Want to trade?

[voice]

[ms_potts]

[The concern is evident in her voice.]

Why? What's happened to you?

[voice]

[likethetragedy]

I'm having issues controlling mine. To be honest I'm not even sure what it is aside from really dangerous.

[twotailmechanic]

[He feels your pain.] Try your best to keep track of all your other yous. I remember having to deal with an evil twin once. That was really annoying and had to keep him tied up so he didn't run off and cause trouble.

[ms_potts]

An evil twin? You think they could be evil?

[twotailmechanic]

Possibly, though if they don't look any different, then chances are they aren't. But I would still be careful.

[makewayforroze]

Then it's your first virus already. Are you alright?

[ms_potts]

Second, actually. [Can't you see how excited she is about this?] I had wings last week...

[makewayforroze]

What were they like?
