Holy shit, attempting to shut down the hyperventilating fangirl squealing long enough to reply coherently to this.

She doesn't have any more use for rules than Tony does.

I'm glad that came through for you. It's one of the major reasons why I'm so fond of her -- she really, really doesn't follow the rules at all. Not the professional ones, not the social ones, not the unspoken ones, and not the spoken ones, either. None of 'em. And I really appreciate that the movie doesn't punish her for it except for the bit where she snarks at Pepper.

The deleted scne in your icon = something I want to see SO, SO BADLY.
