Re: Quicklog: Bruce/Sam
[Bruce's smiles are rare, and his laughs are nearly non-existent. Usually the only way to get him to laugh is to surprise him into it. There's a heavy weariness on him, not the kind that's from just this incident, but from decades of it. His body languages shows it, from the slouched shoulders to the eyes that rarely maintain eye contact for long.] You're both younger and prettier than me, so I never had a shot.
[He notes the smile fading for what it is, but it's not exactly a surprise. What he said isn't exactly helpful or reassuring.] The best in New York. Especially here at the Tower. They know what they're talking about. [Bruce rarely puts himself on that list. He's a scientist more than a doctor.] Be sure to tell your doctors any changes, because it's important to stay on top of it. You'd be surprised at how often people keep things from doctors. [Or maybe not surprised at all.]
