Stolen from _medley_.

Name a character or pairing from a fandom I'm familiar with, and I'll give you a song lyric that I think fits. If you felt inspired to write something using the quote as a prompt, I would not be unhappy.

All usual fandoms apply, not just the ones I write for. At the very least, you can ask and I'll let you know if I know it or not. As always, feel free to ask for more than one.

Tony and Pepper!

TONY:
All About Me, Matt Dusk
What a fine mess I got myself into this time
Who'd of thought a guy like me could crumble
I'm sure that not a soul would ever guess that I'm
Finding it hard to even stumble

I used to think that I was strong
I used to think the world revolved around me
Never thought that I was wrong
And this big world almost drowned me

But I'm breaking out of my routine
And about time that I come clean
And it's all good and it's all new
Let's reintroduce myself to you
No trouble that I'm in
No way that I can't win
And a good man I will be
Once I learn it's not all about me

{Hear it here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pKt7qkVdOA)}

I must run off to watch Wuthering Heights (Burn Gorman! Andrew Lincoln!), but there will be more forthcoming.

PEPPER:
She's the One,Robbie Williams

Though the sea will be strong
I know we'll carry on
'Cos if there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one

{Here the song here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDOjb3C39Lk).}

The rest of the song doesn't quite fit, but that particular lyric makes me think of the way Tony probably sees her.

TONY/PEPPER:
Learn to Fly Carbon Leaf

I awoke
This mornin', with pourin' rain in my heart
As I fall apart today
But you make your way
And I'll rise
I will rise if in my mind

But I can see you fly away
I can see the sun upon your face
I can feel your heart and I can hear you cry
And as I fall apart I learn to fly
A dirty bird like me will learn to fly

{Hear it here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIzrOFbVsgA)}

Makes me think of the torture scene, when Tony's head is underwater and you can hear Pepper calling his name.

Ooh, these are lovely. I especially like the Tony/Pepper song.
