"do you like the stars?"

MCU Rewatch || Iron Man (2008)

You stood by my side all these years while I reaped the benefits of destruction. And now that I'm trying to protect the people that I put in harm's way, you're going to walk out?

You're going to kill yourself, Tony. I'm not going to be a part of it.

I shouldn't be alive, unless it was for a reason. I'm not crazy, Pepper. I just finally know what I have to do. And I know in my heart that it's right.

Tony: Do you like me?

Pepper: I MARRIED YOU.

MCU Rewatch || Iron Man 3 (2013)

You start with something pure, something exciting. Then, come the mistakes. The compromises. We create our own demons. [...] Of course, there are people who say progress is dangerous. But I’ll bet none of those idiots ever had to live with a chest full of shrapnel. And now, neither will I. Let me tell you, that was the best sleep I’d had in years. 

So...if I were to wrap this up, tie it with a bow, whatever...I guess I’d say, my armor? It was never a distraction, or a hobby. It was a cocoon. And now? I’m a changed man. 

You can take away my house, all my tricks and toys. One thing you can’t take away?
