Pepper rolled out of bed, stretching her sleepy limbs. After a quick shower, she got dressed into a neat pencil skirt and a teal blouse.
"What's on the agenda today, JARVIS?" she asked as she picked out a pair of pumps.
JARVIS began to recite.

Pepper sighed, already exhausted from the thought of doing it all in one day. She had JARVIS add one thing:
