love this for so many reasons #thor probably just found out that bruce turns into the hulk #and he literally met bruce hours ago #and everyone else who has known bruce just sees him as the hulk #but thor sees him as bruce banner #not the monster #he knows bruce somewhere in there#that the hulk isn’t just a mindless beast #and to make this even more feelsy#this is just like how he treats loki #everyone else sees loki as a psychotic menace #and thor is the only one who tries to reason with him instead of just attacking #this is why i hate it when people say thor is just all muscle and looks #he is so much more #he’s the only one who’s given the ‘monsters’ a chance to redeem themselves #and to me #thats one of the most heroic things someone can ever do
#can we talk about how everyone else just gets pissed off or annoyed at Tony’s sass #but Bruce is smiling #he thinks it’s funny #he’s just so happy that someone is engaging with him #teasing him even #how long has it been since someone has been comfortable enough around Bruce to tease him about something? #he probably can’t even remember #and now here’s Tony who isn’t afraid of him #who thinks he’s awesome #who wants to be his friend #ugh okay that got away from me but THESE TWO OKAY
I shall overthink this moment and ponder about how starved for attention Bruce has been for the last few years and how eager he looks at Tony, a man he has only just met but who instantly gets him and treats him like a human being.
#not to mention that TONY is actually more excited over BRUCE since he’s ‘the man the big one the hulk’ #he’s just as fascinated in bruce as bruce is in him
