Bruce had been having a really good dream about space. He'd seen the pictures of the astronauts in the newspaper and that sounded like something fun he might want to do. And he probably could! All of his teachers said he was very smart and good at math and Mom said those were things you needed to be an astronaut. She also said it was dangerous but he didn't care about that.

When he woke up from the dream, though, he wasn't in space but he wasn't in his bedroom, either. There were no dinosaur sheets on the bed. They were plain green. Boring. It wasn't Mommy and Daddy's bed, either, which was good since that would make Daddy mad. But that left the question of...where was he?

Well, he wasn't going to become an astronaut by being a scaredy-cat. Dad always told him he needed to buck up and not cry, so he wouldn't. He bit his lip, took a deep breath, and climbed out of the much bigger than his bed. Padding over to the door, he peeked out. There was a hallway with a few doors and all of them were closed. Mommy usually left theirs open a crack in case he needed them, even if it did make Daddy mad if he went in. Interesting. He walked further out and peeked around the corner to find a living room with...was that a TV? That was way bigger than theirs. And a kitchen. Kitchens were nice and normal, he could live with that.

Now that he was thinking about it, he was a little hungry. If Mommy wasn't there to make him waffles, maybe he could find something here? Dragging a chair over, he climbed up so he could look in the cabinets and see what they had. It was rude to steal, but it was rude to kidnap little kids, too, so he thought he should at least get breakfast out of it.

Thor had heard someone banging around in the kitchen, and given the time, he could only assume that it was Bruce, it seemed like too early to be Dee, though he supposed he didn't really know about the habits of the suddenly adult red head.

"Banner, What are you making us for breakfast?" Came Thor's booming voice as he opened the door. He yawned and stretched as he rounded the corner, stopping in his tracks when he saw a very tiny dude standing on a chair. He tilted his head, was this another mistake of magic? He could... vaguely see Bruce's features in the very tiny boy, but he couldn't entirely be sure.

"Bruce?" He asked, "Um... that doesn't seem safe."

He came over and easily lifted the kid from the chair and settling him on the floor. "I am Thor, I am a friend."

The very loud voice almost startled Bruce off of his chair and he stumbled a bit. Fortunately, he was very practiced in chair climbing and he managed to right himself before he fell. If he did something he was always being told not to do and got hurt doing it, Daddy would absolutely give him a 'told you so'. After yelling a lot. That wouldn't be fun.

It took a few seconds for him to process that the voice had been speaking to him. No one called him by his last name, they did call Daddy that but not always. And then a very large blond man came around the corner and into the kitchen and said his name. Before he could protest that it was very safe, thank you, he found himself being placed carefully on to the floor.

"It's safe if you know what you're doing," he grumbled, but looked up at the man with interest. "There is a man named Thor in my coloring book. He is the god of thunder. Did you come out of my coloring book?" This was another dream, maybe? That would explain a lot. Except why he couldn't find the sugar hoops. Even in his dreams he could always find the good cereal.

Thor beamed with pride when Bruce mentioned that he had owned a coloring book with himself in it. He would have to remind Bruce of this when he was back to normal size. Thor kneeled in front of the miniature Bruce, and for a moment considered if the small Banner still possessed his radioactive powers.

"That is I. Thor, God of Thunder, son of Odin." Thor put his hand out to shake it, though he wasn't sure if young Bruce was fond of those. "I did not come out of your coloring book. But we are friends, in my time."

"Are you hungry, my friend? I can... I believe I have some waffles in the freezer. Or we could venture to the donut shop." Bruce did not seem stressed, but Thor knew what a confusing situation this could be, and wanted the child to take the lead on where the conversation went.

Oh! He was a real live god! That was so cool. Even if Dad said the gods weren't real, Bruce always kinda knew they were. And a real live god was giving him a handshake like a proper grown up and Bruce put his tiny hand in Thor's very large one to shake it.

"What do you mean in your time? Is your time not this time? How?" Of course, it was right about that time that he realized maybe he should be a little bit scared. "You're not a dream, are you?" This didn't feel like he was still dreaming. But sometimes dreams felt very real so...

He scrunched his face up thoughtfully. "I like donuts. Daddy says they're garbage and I'm not supposed to eat them, though."

"well, In my time, you are very much... an adult. And not a tiny little adult but like... a big adult. But this has been happening. I believe it is called.... de-aging. Well... thats what you called it when Dee aged... maybe this would be Bruce-aging." Thor had gone off on his own little tangent. "There is a sometimes-woman, sometimes-teenager who lives here too. Her name is Dee." He explained. "She has a squirrel."

"Sometimes garbage is okay. Not every day. Thats why we cant have pizza every day." Thor said with a nod, "But today is a good day for donuts."
