Hulk want Christmas
Hulk watched as Tiny Iron Man landed next to him even as he continued to look around for Danger. Puny Bruce whispered in the back of his head all the time about danger. Puny Bruce was too soft, too scared all the time. Hulk would protect Puny Bruce and their friends. Of all friends, Hulk liked Angry Lady and Iron Man most, but Iron Man was bestest. Iron Man was not afraid. He played with Hulk, and even when Hulk got mad at Iron Man it was alright. Because the man in metal understood. That made Hulk angry and Puny Bruce sad, because Puny Bruce said Iron Man had been hurt by always Angry Dad. Like Bruce. Hulk would smash dads if he could.
The large green man let out a snort, punching a tree at the thought so hard it splintered. While the others in the team jumped slightly, Iron Man patted Hulk’s shoulder. “Hey now, Green Bean. If you needed a toothpick that bad you could have just asked,” he joked, unphased by the anger. Hulk let out a huff, not quite smiling, but soothed all the same. “Anything you want, big guy,” Iron Man promised.
“Hulk want….” He began, feeling Puny Bruce mentally nudge him, encouraging him in a way that had only started when they’d joined this better-family-they-made.
“What is it buddy? More things to smash?”
“Hulk want sing on Team Music CD.” Hulk answered.
“Um. Big guy, Bruce already….” Spangly man said.
“NO! NOT BRUCE!” Hulk roared. “HULK WANT SING, TOO!”
Iron Man held up his hands, getting Hulk’s attention. “Love the enthusiasm. Really. And you know what I think? I think it’s a fine idea. People should get to know the fun-loving you. Not just the… crushing-things you.”
“Crush things fun.” Hulk pointed out.
“Well, yes. It is. I can’t argue that. But you can do other things, right? Like sing. For the Album. That’s what you want to do, right?”
“Yes. Hulk SING!”
“Alright. Then let’s go do this!”
“Tony, are you sure this is a good idea right now?” Spangly Man asked. “I think it’s a great idea and all, but… Hulk, do you even have a song picked out? We don’t want to rush into--”
“Hulk has song. Puny Bruce gave Hulk Song. It best song.” Hulk smiled, proud of himself as he felt Puny Bruce’s warm not-fear directed at him. It wasn’t long after that the green powerhouse was crouched low as he could go in a glass booth. His Made-Family watching him as he belted out the lyrics he remembered from Puny Bruce’s childhood.
