[The truth of the matter is that Bruce does want to come back - he really does, because every part of him misses his life in the Tower. With Tony. It was the best thing that ever happened to him and he had loved every moment of his time there. Loved being around Tony and cherishing every moment he spent with him. He wants that back.

But he doesn't deserve it. Not after everything.]


I can't. I... it won't help.

[His presence will just make things worse.]

[It's okay, Pepper. Nobody tramples on his feelings harder than Bruce himself. He's the pinnacle of self-loathing.]

I. I said things to him in our arguments. Things I shouldn't have said. Things that hurt him.

[He doesn't deserve to be near Tony after all of that, really.]

Its not something a simple apology can fix.

[Because he knew he had ruined something so much more than that and Bruce doesn't deserve anything now, really.

He breaks everything he touches, even that which is supposedly intangible.]

[This response takes a while to come, because Bruce literally has no idea what to say - or what he can say to this, really.]

...I'll think about it.

[No guarantees, though. Things are hard enough as it is.]

[It's hard to be mature about things that he's emotionally stunted to, and this is just one of the many things Bruce seems like he should be better about but actually not. Semi-manchildren, indeed.]

Make sure he gets some rest. Even if it's only just a little. It'll still help.

[Better than to stay awake all the time and eventually collapse.]
