Peggy flinched at the shouting, reaching up to gingerly touch where the blast had it. She seemed to visibly shut down, any and all emotion gone from her face, and didn't say anything else. Truth be told, the blast had scared her.

Stark began chucking orders at Adam while Klaus stood up and limped his way over to her side.
"Are you alright?" he asked softly.
Peggy looked up at Klaus, forcing a smile. "Oh, yeah, I'm good. Fucking up is what I do best, y'know."
He offered her a hand, forcing a smile back. "C'mon. You still haven't bought me lunch."
She took the offered hand, letting him help her up, and bit back a wince. "Ah, yes. We should get out of his way." She flickered a glance in the direction of her father. "You got somewhere in mind, or am I choosing?"
"Your choice." He scooped up the crutch as he walked by, grunting when he leaned down.
"There's a cafe just across the street." Peggy gave the Infinity Stone an incredibly wide berth as she walked past it, grabbing her jacket from the chair Klaus had been on.
"Seems fine to me." He called up the elevator, waiting beside the doors patiently.
(it's official. I'm reluctantly leaving this RP)
She slipped her jacket on, crossing her arms over her chest as she waited next to him. She reached up to clutch her dogtags, holding them a bit too tightly.
(I am so sorry, Gwen. I wish you didn't have to ;-;)
He limped into the elevator, his walk hitched because of how heavy he leaned against the crutch.
Once in the elevator, Peggy relaxed, leaning against the elevator wall. She poked the button for the ground floor and avoided looking into the lab as the doors closed. "Sorry about…all of that."
"Are you alright?" he asked. There was no pity in his voice. It seemed more of a curtsy than anything else.
"Fine. Just a little startled." She shrugged, looking up at him. "Are you alright?"
"Hurting," he admitted. "The symbiote doesn't quite understand pain, or how much it fucked me up when it did the shit it did."
She winced. "I should get you some ice or something."
He shook his head. "I'll be fine. It's just a few bruises."
"Well, just…let me know if you do need anything." She shrugged, fiddling with her dog tags.
Klaus smiled. "Thanks. I appreciate it."
Peggy gave him a two fingered salute, just as the elevator dinged ad opened to the lobby.
He gestured with the crutch. "After you, Ms. Stark."
"Peggy works just fine, y'know." She said with a laugh, stepping out into the lobby and holding a hand in front of the doors to keep them open.
"Ms. Stark has more flair," he explained, limping out of the elevator with a grin.
(Time to bond with pizza once again)
((Like I said, it's a great bonding food lmao))
"You've got a point there, pretty boy." She tossed her hair over her shoulder jokingly, letting the doors close.
He poked her side with the crutch. "I'd rather you call me Amity than that shit."
"Or, I could work a bit harder to come up with a decent nickname." She countered, swatting at the crutch.
"Then do it," he said, sticking his tongue out at her.
"Using my brain is so much effort though." She complained, flipping him off as she started towards the door.
He followed after her. "Need a straw so you can suck it up?"
