A Heart None the Less

Brucey Dearest

  Tony waltzed into Bruce's room earning him an annoyed look from Banner, it was like he could sense when Tony was around doing whatever it is Tony dose these days. Bruce let out a long sigh as he pinched the bridge of his nose "What'd you did you do?" he asked clearly annoyed, Tony flashed his signature 'I'm up to no good but I'm trying to act all innocent' smile at Bruce 

"I didn't do anything...per-say" Bruce rolled his eyes 

"Tony the power just doesn't go out, not in a neighborhood like this and certainly not a place that is heavily watched by S.H.I.E.L.D. So what are you hiding? what did you break? Or more importantly, what blew up?" Bruce wasn't like the other SHIELD members, unlike most (with the exception of Natasha) agents Bruce knew well of Tony's antics and personality and it didn't take him long to metaphorically pin Tony into a corner and make him talk.

Tony nursed his drink before once again smiling a guilty smile "Okay this time, I didn't blow anything up promise. When have I every broke anything?" Tony stated as Bruce looked at him and deadpanned 

"Don't change the subject Stark" he stated in a tone that made a slight shiver run down Tony's back as he swallowed nervously 

"Okay, okay I'll tell you only if you promise not to get mad" Bruce pushed up his glasses and gave Tony a look 

"It take's allot to make me angry now-a-days Stark so just tell me" he said crossing his arms, man Banner always seemed to have a solid argument and reasoning when it came to Tony.

Tony let out a breath "Okay this is allot to take in so I'm going to start out simple..for the last few days I've been thinking about what happened in New York specifically what a certain Norse god said to me," Tony paused expecting Bruce to interject but he just looked at Tony so Tony continued "well as I was trying to think and unravel what he said to me JARVIS interrupted my thoughts to tell me that he..sensed Asgardain magic and not Goldilocks no, he specifically sensed Loki's magic." Bruce's eyebrow went up and he seemed interested in what Tony was saying so far. Bruce looked at Tony he was silent for a moment for he figured out Tony wanted him to at least say something now,

"And what this have to do with the whole power going out thing?" Bruce asked lamely. Tony sucked in air 

"Ya see here's the thing with that, he kind of showed up in front of the tower here-" Bruce cut tony off with a quick 

"What?!" as he rose as  if to dare Tony to repeat what he had just said, Tony could feel every muscle in his body tighten up at once as he nervously licked his lips and slowly repeated himself, he could see the rage begin to pent up inside of Bruce.

"Hey buddy, calm down."

"Calm down, calm down? How can I calm down Tony, when a wanted criminal, the person responsible for millions of death has returned and you're acting like he isn't an enemy of S.H.E.I.L.D! Tony this is preposterous, you should be out looking for him, so we can get him contained-" 

Tony put his hand up "I'm gonna stop ya there big guy, I've already found him, actually scratch that he found me..he came to the tower Bruce" Bruce looked mildly annoyed, he ran his hands through his short, slightly curly hair and he paced back and forth for a second, when he spoke next his voice was reduced to that of a whisper.   

"Tony.." Bruce sighed "is that why the power went out?" Tony nodded numbly and swallowed the lump in his throat before saying

"Bruce you should see him, he's not here to hurt, he needs help, I couldn't let S.H.E.I.L.D know anything about this, so I shut everything down so all the bugs they have laced in my tower will be offline for a bit" Bruce sighed
