Pepper was probably blushing too, but since he wasn't looking at her it couldn't make a difference, really, could it? She just had to keep playing it up, and figure this whole conversation out later. Clapping a hand over her heart dramatically (normally this gesture was reserved for dying, but then, she'd never played a girl before) she swooned a little and said, "Well, bless my tiny skirt, Adam Young thinks I'm pretty! I may never recover! Though, you could speak it a little louder next time, as I'm liable to go deaf tryin' to pick the words out..."
The overacting collapsed all at once and she absolutely did not giggle. "Anyway, one would hope I was prettier, seeing as your the gentleman and I'm the lady." And to be perfectly ladylike Pepper stuck out her tongue for good measure. She tried to sit up, then realized that doing that the normal way would have her opening her legs, and decided to stay where she was.
