I just... generally have problems with Fraction's Pepper. She talks about her husband with Tony, knowing his mind's going, sleeps with him, then gets upset that he can come back when Happy can't, apparently having forgotten that she was the one who asked Tony to turn off the life support in the first place, and then this. She's going through a lot. I understand that. Hell, I don't know I'd be able to put up with half the shit she's gone through. But the other half of it is, half the shit she's going through is also by her own decision. She could have held out hope that Happy might one day be fixed. She could have chosen not to sleep with Tony while his memories were being deleted (yes, long held passions, whatever, we'd been lead for decades to believe she was over that, and happy with, well, Happy, and that Tony was content with a playful, yet platonic working relationship). She didn't do either. And blaming him for the fact that both have more or less come back to bite her is, on one hand, semi-understandable, but still a cheap angst shot by the writer.
