Bruce Banner headcanons Babey
Bruce Banner x reader, slight Tony Stark x reader (platonic)
A/n: hi! These aren't any specific category of headcanons, it's just stuff that dating Bruce would include. There's stuff about how you both would spend christmas, quarantine, etc. Just some cute fluff. Love ya'll - Aphro-frickin-dite
• Bruce is obsessed with tea.
• You will NEVER catch him without a mug in his hand. Whether it's earl grey, chamomile, matcha or English breakfast, he'll always be drinking tea.
• He also knows the different properties of tea and when you should drink them because he just loves tea so much.
• "Babe, look at this! I just found out that berry herbal tea can help with migraines."
• He also loves to cook, it's one of his biggest passions.
• He'll cook you dinner all the time, constantly buying new books to spot any new recipes.
• When he's stressed, the first place he goes is the lab. Being around the technology and whiteboards packed with equations brings him peace, for some reason.
• You both kiss in the lab so often that Tony often doesn't let you inside.
• "Open the fucking door, Antony."
"Fine, but if you start making out with Brucey then you'll have to give me a kiss too!"
• You and Tony having this weird frenemy kind of relationship. He didn't like you two being at such close proximity first because he thought it would distract Bruce, but he sees how you make him so much happier so he can't help but like you.
• Okay so we all know Bruce doesn't sleep much, the poor dude's an insomniac.
• But he always sleeps so much better when he has you in his arms, just knowing that you're there and he can keep you safe.
• But on those nights where he just cannot drift off, he likes to do something fun.
• He'll wake you up just after midnight and will (quietly) play some old fashioned music, and you'll both sleepily slow dance in the middle of your room.
• In fact, it was more Steve's music taste who influenced Bruce than Tony's, Bruce was never a fan of the whole 90s rock thing.
• He mainly listens to music from the late 30s, classical music like Tchaikovsky, or 70s dance music. He has three moods.
• Sometimes you'll walk into the kitchen to find Bruce, dancing to Gimme Gimme Gimme by Abba, while cooking dinner.
• He's such a cuddler omg.
• Although he isn't a big fan of PDA, he is a monster for affection when it's only the both of you.
• Cold winter mornings, cuddling in bed under 50 million blankets. Your legs intertwined, just a messy tangle of limbs.
• Bruce is always warm. No matter what the weather, he's practically a human radiator.
• He loves it when you play with his hair.
• Just loosely running your fingers through it will drive him insane.
• He's always so scared to kiss you! Even ages after you both spent your first intimate night together, he always gets really nervous to come and kiss you, so usually you have to initiate it.
• Despite this, he loves giving you tiny pecks on the lips and nose. Never really one for making out, but he just loves planting tiny kisses across your face.
• Coming back from a mission is when he needs affection most. He'll hug you so tight against your chest, desperate to get you closer to him every second.
• He loves your singing voice, and whenever he gets really anxious you'll sing to calm him down.
• Even if you don't think you can sing very well, he could spend his entire life having you sat next to him, quietly singing some of his favourite songs.
• Although the man has two left feet, he LOVES to dance. But only around you. He'd never let any of the avengers catch him dancing, but with you, he feels truly comfortable and will dance forever.
• He loves watching and analysing movies, so expect lots of movie nights together.
• You always force him to watch musicals and disney movies and he pretends to hate it, but secretly he absolutely loves it.
• Pulling all nighters together in the lab can be a mixed bag.
• One time you pulled an all nighter, you were both super serious and put all of your attention on your work, not wasting any time to fuss about each other.
• Another time you pulled an all nighter, Tony left the lab to grab some coffee and returned to find you and Bruce re-enacting the scene from titanic on top of one of the tables, both of you screaming "My Heart Will Go On" at the top of your lungs.
• Whenever the holidays come around you both go all out. Even if neither of you actually celebrate them religiously, you love to put loads of decorations up and play Christmas music all the damn time.
• It kinda drives the rest of the avengers crazy.
• But on Christmas day, you and Bruce plan all the festivities for the group. He'll cook christmas lunch, you'll be in charge of movies and presents, and you'll both definitely be wearing matching ugly Christmas sweaters.
• He's your biggest supporter, and you're his. He just adores you and worships every fibre of your being, and he often wonders how he managed to get someone as beautiful as you. And when he's had a rough day and is full of insecurities, your the first person to remind him of how intelligent and kind he is.
• Y'all are a power couple I'll tell you that.
• When quarantine started, it wasn't easy for either of you. It made you both super stressed and paranoid, but you were self isolating together and that was all that mattered.
• Bruce kinda getting a cult following on Tumblr and Twitter, having over 12k followers. Because his fans (well, technically the Hulk's fans) love you so much, you both like to release little videos to let them know you're doing well while in lockdown.
• "Hey guys, it's Bruce and y/n here, we just wanted to let you all know that we're healthy and happy at home."
"Yeah, although it's been driving us up the wall, staying at home is the most important thing for us and the world. So stay home and stay safe! And don't forget to wash your hands. Unlike Bruce, who doesn't wash his hands after he pees..."
"Hey! I wash my hands after I pee!"
• You both learn from each other so much and inspire the other to be a better person.
