We're sure the naked guy running around hugging people isn't Tony Stark, right? That's happened on occasion.

With Martha gone, I'm taking over the running of the Med Centre. I hope that's alright with everyone.
But, I could really do with some help. So, is there anyone else Medically trained, who hasn't already approached me that needs a job? Or anyone who's pre-med at college who'd like an internship?

Okay so who was the genius who decided to put Law & Order: SVU on Netflix? Because I have literally done nothing but watch it constantly for the last week. I need more. I am an addict. I also think I have a crush on the entire SVU Unit. All of them. I want to hang out in a NYC apartment with them, like the cast of Friends. Which I have also been constantly watching.
Oh God.
When Nietzsche was talking about 'the abyss' I'm pretty sure he just meant Netflix. It's all starting to come together.

We should talk.

Hey, what's up?
I feel like all of you -- and me -- I feel like we need to have a little talk to get a few things straight. Seems like a lot of you, well, you might be familiar with a world like mine. Maybe you've watched some movies with Edward Norton or Eric Bana -- and if you have, I'm sorry. Maybe you think I should look a lot more like the affable love interest in 13 Going on 30 or maybe you just think I'm always angry.
But, dig this, all of those things are wrong.
What I am -- and what the Hulk is is dangerous. Indestructible, incredible, irrational, irradiated -- whatever you want to call it, the Hulk, if left unchecked, could rip this city apart faster than you could say "Smash". And if you're wondering if I'm writing this to tell you that there is some trick, some way to stop him, some charm like the way music works on the Three-Headed Dog in Harry Potter? You're wrong. You can't stop him. They've tried everything from shooting me into space to greasing me up with bacon and maple syrup and leaving me in a room with Wolverine. It doesn't work. It never will.
Magic doesn't work either. We've tried that.
Why I'm telling you this is -- well, it's simple. If you see the Hulk, you run. You don't be a hero, you don't try to stop him, you don't try to reason with him, or talk him down. I can sometimes do that, and God knows, I'll be trying -- these days, I even have control most of the time. But it's not a risk anyone ought to take.
Just run.
Why am I bringing all this up?
Because there's been a lot of talk about second chances aren't something anyone deserves. I certainly didn't -- or the third, forth, or fiftieth. Second chances aren't something that are earned, either: I've saved the world a hundred times over, I'll probably save it a hundred times more because that's what I do, but it doesn't make up for any of the lives I've ruined or the worlds I've destroyed. The planets that have been shattered to ashes because I failed to intervene in time. What second chances are are a gift, they're a sign of mercy, of compassion, of civilization and of hope.
They shouldn't be taken for granted, they shouldn't be revoked without reason, they -- basically -- shouldn't be fucked with. If someone fails at their second change, maybe they should be granted a third -- maybe not. But that's decided after, not before.
Because you can fuck with a lot of things, right -- but don't fuck with people's hope.
Especially not until you can stand up, look me in the eye and tell me you know what it's like not to have any.

Can someone explain why there are now two of Stark now?
If a second Quill turns up I'm out.

Tony, Bruce, we've got some room in the renovated warehouse a bunch of us stay at if you need a place to stay. We also have some amulets for you two that will keep you safe from possession. Which is a thing here.
At least this isn't the cold, silent vacuum of space. I can work with this.
So I'm Bruce Banner.
I just woke up naked in a graveyard which -- funny story -- not the strangest place I've woken up naked this week. I have this fun phone! But no pants.
This must be what it feels like to be Tony Stark.
