Bruce always thought his life was on a elevator of extreme proportions of rage and extreme anxiety and melancholy related to sharing a body with a gigantic green sentient being with rage issues.
He had never been more wrong.

summary: Thor has looked forward to the Avengersâ Halloween party, especially because of a certain doctor. (post-canon fluff)
(my late halloween fic for my favorite holiday and my late addition to @thorbruceweek2021 ! hope you all enjoy just some domestic avengers and fluffy love confessions and fat thor my love. yeah. not beta read and all mistakes are my own. enjoy?!)
Thor has always found humans incredibly peculiar, but also grew incredibly fond of them instantly, that much is certain, after fighting with the Avengers as long as he has.
And since his wonderful friend Sam Wilson prompted for a reformation of the superheroes, he thought himself honored to be considered a part of the team, still. Itâs been so long since heâs seen his mortal friends, heâd missed them dearly.
Heâd also missed Valkyrie dearly, very much so, despite staying in contact with her. Sheâs doing an excellent job ruling New Asgard; better than heâd ever do, by a mile. The warrior seems humbled, but smirks into his chest as they hug, because he always knew she was a softie. Heâs got a feeling Loki would agree.
Arriving at the brand new, rebuilt Avengers tower was strange and amusing and nostalgic, but so was just seeing Earth in heavens knows how long! Traveling space with his Guardian friends made him lose track of time.
Thor also asked the Captain if they could join, after he put in a good word for them. Sam had eyed the sweet rabbit with a bit of hesitation, but he convinced him heâd keep him in check.
Of course, today is a few months after their very first return to Earth and not anywhere near a professional meeting. Rather, he and Valkyrie and the Guardians have been invited for this thing called Halloween!
He loves these human festivities, theyâre so odd sometimes.
Bruce wears a dinosaur costume to the Avengersâ Halloween party. Thor is a little too into it.

Damn Tony and his stupid bet.
Bruce prowls around the edge of the party, trying not to step on anyoneâs toes. This is rather difficult, since heâs currently dressed as a velociraptor. It was fun for a while; Bruce told everyone he wasnât coming and so far no one has guessed who he is (apart from Pepper, but she promised not to tell). For a few hours heâs stomped around the guests, pretended to steal food off the table and generally been a playful nuisance.
Now though, heâs hot and thirsty and so sweaty that even his socks are damp. Itâs starting to get claustrophobic, and all he can smell is plastic. He sags against the wall, trying to take deep breaths. This isnât one of those cheap inflatable things you can find on eBay, oh no. Tony designed the damn thing to his measurements and made it as realistic as possible. Itâs a masterpiece of foam and latex, complete with a long tail, tiny arms (that he canât reach far with) and a removable head with beady eyes and yellow teeth. And yes, itâs awesome. But the joke is wearing a little thin.
Out of one eyehole, he catches sight of Thor striding towards him, a grin on his face. âAh, here is a foe worthy of my might!â
All evening, heâs had to admire Thor from afar. Which is utterly criminal, because Thor is wearing nothing but a leopard-print loincloth. âWho are you supposed to be?â
âIs it not obvious?â He looks down innocently. âI am Tarzan. Natasha told me he is a popular character from Midgardian folklore.â Even the loincloth leaves little to the imagination.
âYou lookâŠâ He licks his dry lips. âReally good. Iâm actually going to kill Tony when I get out of this.â
Thor chuckles and pats his dinosaur head. âWorry not, I can always give you a private showing later. How are you faring? Are you hot?â
âYou have no idea.â His own laboured breathing echoes loudly in his ears. âActually, um, I could really use the bathroom but Iâm not sure I can get out of this on my own. Would you mindâŠ?â
@thorbruceweek2021 Day 6: Asgardian Courting Rituals
âI have a suggestion,â Bruce says gently. âI show you how to date a Midgardian, and you show me how Asgardian courtship works. Call it a cultural exchange.â
âYou make it sound so scientific.â Thor chuckles. âHave you no social plans this week?â
He shrugs. âWell, Iâve got a couple raves pencilled in, but I can always cancel.â He chews on his lower lip. âAnything for you.â
It takes Thor a moment to find a suitable response. He settles on, âThat would be wonderful.â Hesitantly, he holds out his drink. âTo courtship?â
It was only a matter of time before their rights were taken away.

Iâm not sure if anyone here has read Song of Achilles, but I constantly think of this verse and thorbruce.
âName one hero who was happy."
I considered. Heracles went mad and killed his family; Theseus lost his bride and father; Jason's children and new wife were murdered by his old; Bellerophon killed the Chimera but was crippled by the fall from Pegasus' back.
"You can't." He was sitting up now, leaning forward.
"I can't."
"I know. They never let you be famous AND happy." He lifted an eyebrow. "I'll tell you a secret."
"Tell me." I loved it when he was like this.
"I'm going to be the first." He took my palm and held it to his. "Swear it."
"Why me?"
"Because you're the reason. Swear it."
"I swear it," I said, lost in the high color of his cheeks, the flame in his eyes.
"I swear it," he echoed.
We sat like that a moment, hands touching. He grinned.
"I feel like I could eat the world raw.â
I love to think about this dynamic between Thor and Bruce on the ship at the end of Ragnarok. Heading to earth, ready for a new beginning, blind to the dangers that are just around the corner. Thor being a hero, who wants to be happy and unknowingly is about to lose his happiness. And Bruce swearing to be with Thor, not knowing they are about to be separated.
Was it two weeks since the snap they said at the start of endgame? Because I'm kinda curious abt brice's reaction when thor either tells him about how he survived or doesn't. Bruce just kind of figures it out himself
hello anon sorry for the incredibly delayed response, but i decided to write a small fic of my take on this! check it out under the cut:
âI knew youâd come back to meâÂ
check it out on ao3 here
When they returned to the compound, everything was exactly how they left it.
It was as if this world altering event hadnât happened. Inside the compound, it was as though the entire team would walk back in after the battle. But they wouldnât. Half of them were gone.
Nobody had really accepted what had happened yet and it seemed like everyone was moving in slow motion. They retreated to corners of the compound where their breakdowns couldnât be publicised. Steve and Nat attempted contact with missing team members. They tried to find Tony, and turned to Bruce for help.
âIâm really not the person to ask,â Bruce grimaced, taking a seat at the table.
âBruce, you were the last person to see him on Earth.â Steve reasoned, âPlease. Just try and think back. Do you have any idea where he went? What he was doing?â
âHe was following the wizard,â Bruce answered, squeezing the bridge of his nose. âHulk wouldnât come out and so they banished meâ it was a whole thing. I wasnât there.â
âA wizard?â Nat asked, sharing a look with Steve that she clearly thought Bruce wouldnât see.
âThey took him on their ship, and Tony followed him. Thatâs all I know. I donât know where they were going,â Bruce answered, anger flaring up inside him. Not at them, but at himself for being useless. âIâm sorry, you guys. Iâm sorry.â
âWell what about Thor?â Steve asked. âWhat went on with you guys before you came back to Earth? Maybe he knows where Tony is, maybe he saw him.â
âHe didnât,â Bruce snapped, both Steve and Nat flinching at his response. âDonâtâ I gotta go.â
He stood up, not bothering to tuck his chair away on exit, leaving Steve and Nat staring at him dumbfounded.
âBruceââ Nat called after him.
âLet him go.â Steveâs voice became quieter the further he walked.
Bruce stalked the hallways of the compound with one destination in mind. He didnât stop until he appeared at Thorâs room, trying to ignore the empty rooms along the way of his fallen team mates.
Except when he arrived at Thorâs room, the door that was usually left wide open, was shut.
He hesitated. Knocked.
Bruce heard shuffling from behind the door and before he could walk away, Thor opened the door.
âBanner,â His face softened as he saw Bruce.
He only walked past Thor and into his room, shutting the door behind him. Thor hesitated by the door before he turned around to face Bruce.
âWhy did you do that?â Bruce asked, feeling his nerves get the better of him.
âExcuse me?â Thor asked, âDo what?â
âWhy did you get Heimdall to send me back to Earth?â Bruce felt his lip quiver as he spoke and he balled his fists angrily.
Thor sighed, âBruceââ
âNo, Thor, why? Why didnât you let me stay and help fight?â Bruce was shouting now. âBecause I couldâve helped. I wasnât done. You had no right to just send me away.â
âThanos had already wounded you enough,â Thor murmured, âWe needed someone to warn the others of his plan, that he was coming.â
âBullshit,â Bruce snapped, âWhy did you really do it?â
âYou wouldnât have survived the decimation of the ship. He wiped everyone out minutes after you were gone. He killedââ Thor stopped and took a breath. âI didnât want your death to be on my hands, too.â
Bruceâs frown fell. âBut everyoneââ
âYouâre strong, Banner, I know that more than anyone, but youâre not Asgardian strong,â Thor took a seat on the edge of his bed. âWe had more of a chance of surviving the decimation than you did.â
âYou shouldnât have made that decision for me, Thor.â
âWell I did. Okay?â Thor snapped now, and Bruce flinched. âEarth needed you and will continue to need you now more than ever. Heimdall knew that. I knew that.â
Bruce took a seat next to Thor in the silence. His room was bare and cold. It was never really his home. He was never there. But now he had nowhere else to go, so it became a home to him with such severity that it made Bruce ache. There was nothing here to remind him of his family and his people.
âIâm sorry,â Bruce spoke quietly, trying to diffuse the awkwardness that had suddenly risen. âWhat happened after I left?â
Thor continued to stare at the floor. âHe killed Heimdall. However many Asgardians he didnât kill probably died when he decimated the ship.â
âAnd you?â Bruce asked. âHow did you survive?â
Thor paused, and Bruce could hear him take a shaky breath. âI donât know. I shouldnât have.â
Bruce shook his head. âThorââ
âI gave up,â He said. âI wanted to be with Loki. In my final moments.â
Bruce took a sharp intake of breathâ Loki. Thor didnât enter Wakanda with Loki. He was nowhere to be seen.
âThanos,â Bruce tried. âHeââ
âKilled Loki,â Thor nodded his head emphatically. âYeah.â
Bruce felt bile in his throat as he watched Thor try to hold it together. The gap between them was stupid, and Bruce shuffled closer to Thor instantly. He needed to be there in case Thor collapsed.
âIâm so sorry, Thor,â Bruce answered, hesitantly placing a hand on Thorâs arm. He didnât flinch, and his arm was warm, so Bruce squeezed it slightly in recognition.
Thor looked at him for the first time since he entered the room. âOne minute I was resigned and ready to die with Loki, and the next I was inside the Rabbitâs ship. I donât know how I got there or what kept me alive. But here I am.â
Bruce nodded. âIâm glad youâre here. Iâm glad his Snap didnât take you. Even if you might wish it did.â
Thor nodded too before finally letting his tears get the better of him. He collapsed, much to Bruceâs expectation, and Bruce had never been more thankful for intuition. He held onto Thor as he cried, feeling his arms wrap around his body in response.
Bruce didnât know how long they stayed there, but he found himself crying, too.
Phew! Just managed to finish this one in time. I chose sex pollen because I haven't written that trope before. This is corny, silly and sexy all rolled into one.
---
Bruce was sweating, his hands practically slipping as he tried to hold them together as a means to calm himself. It wasnât right. He shouldnât feel like he would fade away into the ether just because he wasnât complying with his bodyâs wants. He had spent a long time in his life defying what his primal instincts wanted to do and instead listening to rationality and reason.
Bruce was good at not getting what he wanted.
He felt the hand of another man carefully wrap around the back of his neck, calloused fingers massaging gently where his neck met his shoulder blade, wanting him to relax enough to let go.
âPlease,â Thor said softly. âYouâre all Iâve ever wanted.â
With Thanos defeated, Bruce and Thor return to New Asgard. Not only does Bruce have to adjust to being human-sized again, heâs also lost the use of his right arm. Time doesnât always heal physical wounds.
Thor looks up, spatula in hand. His long hair is pulled back in a messy bun and heâs wearing one of Bruceâs oversized t-shirts. âGood morning, my love. You were some time in the bathroom, are you well? I feared the steak wasnât cooked enough yesterdayâŠâ
âIt was fine.â He shuffles up behind him and curls his good arm around Thorâs middle. When Bruce was big, he could get one arm all the way around him. Today, he settles for resting his hand on the curve of Thorâs belly and hiding his face in his back.
âIâm making pancakes â well, erm, trying to. Do you think your tastes will have changed?â
Bruce shrugs. âOnly one way to find out, I guess.â
âAh, true. Alright, are you ready to watch me flip this?â
Bruce straightens up. âDo not.â
âOh come on, I know I got a little overexcited last time â â
âI had to clean batter off the ceiling! Let me flip it. Pass me the spatula?â
Thor hands it to him, then holds out the pan. Bruce has always enjoyed cooking and considers himself skilled, but heâs never flipped a pancake left-handed. How hard can it be?
Bruce slides the spatula under the sizzling pancake and pulls up sharply. Hot batter splashes down his front. âShit!â
@thorbruceweek2021 Day 4: For Science! / Sex Pollen
Rating: Mature
Bruce has a sex-pollen incident in the lab. Thor hurries over to âhelpâ.
Clint accidentally overhears the whole thing.
âSomethingâs happening, I feel⊠I dunno, weird.â Thereâs a long, worrying silence. Then Bruce sighs. Itâs a surprised, happy, breathy sigh. âIt feels kinda good, actually.â
Clint pauses. âBruce?â
âGood in what way?â Thor asks quietly.
âUm, maybe I should get off the line.â
âNo no, stay with me. You must tell me what is happening. I must know you are safe.â
âWellâŠâ He laughs shyly. âOn the plus side, I donât think the other guy is going to be an issue. But⊠letâs just say Iâve got a growing problem.â
Clint yanks out his earpiece. âYouâve gotta be kidding me.â Itâs 2pm on a Tuesday afternoon. He wants to eat tacos.
Wednesday, 27th October: Fertility / Undercover as a couple
A wee fic tangentially based around the prompt 'fertility', but more based on a Tumblr post, plus some ramblings with other Bruce fans.
--
Ah, I see breakfast has been kindly prepared!â Thor announced far, far too loudly for the morning as he entered the kitchen. Several people groaned as his voice reverberated through their tired skulls.
âHands off,â Wanda warned, âThis is for everyone so you can wait until itâs ready. No sneaking bacon either.â
âI wouldnât dream of it,â Thor said as Steve grabbed a piece from the counter and threw it for Thor to catch in one fluid motion. Thor hid it without so much as breaking a smile.
âYou know she can mind-read, right?â Bruce asked as he entered the kitchen, having seen the sleight of hand. Like everyone else, he looked dishevelled and like he had only just woken up.
âWoo, thereâs the loverboy!â Scott yelled. âI heard you retreated back to Thorâs last night. How long has this been going on?â
aka: 5 times they didnât realise Thor was pregnant +1 time Thor broke the news
@thorbruceweek2021 Day 3: Fertility / Undercover as a Couple
âThis is delightful,â Thor says appreciatively. âBruce, you must try this.â
Thereâs a spoon hovering near Bruceâs face. Without thinking, he leans over and accepts the proffered bite of ice cream â then blushes when he realises what heâs done. Thankfully, the others donât seem to pick up on it.
Thor smiles at him expectantly. âWhat do you think?â
Aware of their stares on him, Bruce considers. Itâs mint choc chip, but the longer he holds it in his mouth... âOh god, why is it spicy?â He swallows with a shudder, but the burning sensation lingers.
âHot sauce!â Thor shakes the bottle at him. Thereâs a picture of a flaming skull on it. âI knew it would go with ice cream, I just had this feeling.â
Clint cackles. âYou canât be serious.â
âI am. The combination is exquisite.â
Bruceâs throat is burning. âCan you warn me next time?â he wheezes. He shoves a large spoon of ice cream in his mouth â and immediately gets brain freeze. âArgh, shit...â
