[Bruce's morning had come with a jarring transition from sleep to wakefulness when his sleepy morning chest scratching had come minus the usual scritch of chest hair under his fingers and plus the uncomfortable obstruction of a metal object in his chest that turned out to be an arc reactor.

After a period of freaking out and self-examination, the varying particulars of which he will forever keep to himself, he's grabbed his communicator in an attempt to track down his own body.]

Hello, City, this is Bruce Banner currently occupying Tony Stark's body.

If you see this man, he is not Bruce Banner today.

Do not give him caffeine. Do try to help him stay calm.

Tony, wherever you are, I'll be responsible with your body. I assume you have mine, come see me so I can give you care and feeding instructions.

[ Oh great, someone else who knows the human him. At least some things never change. ]

But that's the great thing about sarcasm, nobody ever is.

[hulkbusted]

No, usually I can take it, but right now I'm not enjoying the arc reactor in my chest and not knowing for sure that Tony's not going to take the green guy for a spin.

[studmuffin]

It could be worse, you could be Deadpool.

[hulkbusted]

Do I want to know who that is?

[studmuffin]

You guys don't have Deadpool? This place sucks.

[hulkbusted]

You lost me. Is Deadpool a person or a state of being?

[studmuffin]

He's a superhero.

[hulkbusted]

Never heard of him. What's so bad about him if he's a superhero?

[studmuffin]

He's the superhero your mom warned you about.

[hulkbusted]

That doesn't sound very superheroic.

[Let it be noted for the record that Bruce does not consider himself or the Hulk to be superheroes. He's just a guy with a condition and one helluva brain.]

[studmuffin]

Every superhero has to have a flaw. Even madness.

[hulkbusted]

I don't see how being crazy fits the whole superhero gig.

[studmuffin]

Dude, that's like a staple of the superhero gig.

[hulkbusted]

You base your expertise on what?

[studmuffin]

Extensive research.

[hulkbusted]

Let me know when you start interviewing superheroes.

[studmuffin]

Hey, is that a thing I can do? 'Cause I totally would.

[hulkbusted]

Go find a superhero and go to town. It's not going to be my problem.

[studmuffin]

You could totally be number one on my list.

[hulkbusted]

I don't meet the qualifications. Try again.

[studmuffin]

Of course you do.

[hulkbusted]

You must be thinking of Bruce Banner from one of those other universes.

[studmuffin]

You're kidding, right? You don't know how cool you are.

[hulkbusted]

You're mixing me up with Tony Stark now. Right body, wrong mind, but thanks.

sorry this was lost in the recesses of my inbox

[studmuffin]

Wow. Superheros with low self-esteem. I'm going to have to get other-me to run a class.
