WHO: Bruce Banner & Betty Ross
WHAT: Science!
WHERE: UC Irvine
WHEN: Wednesday Night
WARNINGS: PG
Betty was still in her lab coat and goggles, looking every bit the research scientist. She'd always found it ridiculous that people thought scientists somehow couldn't work on a project they were too closely attached to emotionally. Thousands of cancer researchers got into their field to help loved ones.
This might be more specialized, but it didn't make it less difficult.
The good news was certainly that Bruce's cells did not seem to be damaged to the point of destruction, like you'd usually expect from radiation. The bad news was that their very resilience was terrifying.
Betty could tell that the proteins weren't showing any sign of decay, and even in the limited lab testing done she should have seen some atrophy. But in this, nothing.
And once the stress hormones were induced...
It was the science of the Hulk, and honestly she wasn't sure what could be done. All she knew was that the Bruce Banner she knew and loved was a man of science. If anyone could find a way to live with it, he could.
