“since when is flattery bad?” he asked with a grin. He knew that everyone thought that Tony’s ego shouldn’t be fed, but he didn’t quite agree. They had similar childhoods and when you have a childhood void of love you end up being one of two kinds of people. Shy, Reserved, and Introverted like Bruce. Or hardened, egotistical, but deeply insecure like Tony. Deep under that ego, Bruce was sure that Tony was as insecure as Bruce was on the outside. He deserved to be told how brilliant he is, every day and often until he actually believed it rather than filling his ego he wanted to actually effect him. Bruce didnt know if he could, but he could try.
"Alright," the engineer relented. He sat them both up and proceeded to set his head down in Bruce's lap. "Go on then. Tell me how great I am," he invited, smiling up at him.

Bruce grinned, Running his hand repeatedly over Tony’s soft hair. ” You’re beautiful, but you know that And you’re smart, and you act like a five year old sometimes and its probably the cutest thing Ive ever seen.” He said smiling “You act like you don’t care but deep down i know you do, You care about all of us. I don’t know if im the only one to notice but it wasn’t peppers idea to have us all move into the tower. I know she didn’t put books on M theory in my room, And invent a punching bag that could withstand Thor and Steve. You’re amazing Anthony Stark, You really are.”
Tony hummed, soaking up all the words and enjoying the feel of the physcist's fingers in his hair. Normally he might've made a fuss of his unshortened first name, but it was somehow more tolerable when Bruce said it. "There's a lot of tower to go around," he justified with a lazy stretch of his limbs. "Never realized how big and empty it was until you all moved in though."

Bruce just smiled, with tony that was probably as close to admitting that he cared as he was going to get. “Its nice to have people who care about you. We do care about you, all of us. Not just me, though I do take the cake for caring a bit more than i should.” Bruce laughed fingers still stroking tony’s hair. ” I know deep down, you care about everyone. Even though you’ll never admit it.”
"I guess this gets to be my 'happily ever after'," Tony chuckled sarcastically, reaching out to pluck another flower from the grass.

Bruce grinned ignoring the sarcasm, “does that make me prince charming, because I am so up for that role. Though i think this means we have to buy you a dress, Hmm i wonder how you would look in a dress, what do you think?” he asked pulling out a flower and tucking it behind Tony’s ear. “I think you’d be very pretty” he said suppressing a laugh.
Tony sat up quickly, flailing his arms. He reached up and yanked the flower out from behind his ear and tossed it away. "Not even if I was drunk," he said. "Now, if it was some kind of compromise-trade, like I fulfill one of your kinks if you fulfill one of mine..." The engineer's grin came back.

Bruce just laughed, tugging tony back into his lap and whispering in his ear. “oh believe me, if you were fulfilling my kinks that wouldn’t even come close to being the first one I’d pick.” he nipped lightly at the shell of Tony’s ear, “you know, I’m all about compromise but the kinks I’m thinking of, you’d definitely have to buy me dinner first”
Tony shuddered at the teeth on his ear. "About that... when can we do that? I'm trying to be patient, but you know me," he chuckled, trying to disguise how rapidly he was getting turned on-- damnit, Tony, this is the /park/, he thought to himself. He bit down on his lip.

Bruce laughed quietly, “Ive, well Ive never. So you’re just going to have to be patient with me.” he said hoping that wasn’t the end of it all. He knew tony, he was… well tony. He didnt think he was willing to wait for anyone. He frowned a bit, so much for this relationship.
A sly smirk crawled across Tony's face. "I meant dinner. But, that's an interesting tidbit to know." He pushed Banner back so he could lean over him again. "Never ever?" his voice was low, confidential, and curious all at the same time.

“I’m hesitant to believe that you just meant dinner, but no,” he said looking anywhere but at tony barely whispering “never”
That sent a different kind of shiver up his spine. It was weird to Tony to think someone Bruce's age had been 'missing out' all this time, but then again, the guy didn't really get out much. "You are going to /love/ it," he promised, pressing their bodies close. "I'll make sure of that. I'll break you in, show you how phenomenal it can be. And we can experiment..." Was he wriggling with excitement? Yes, he was.

Bruce smiled, “thank you” he murmured, Though for what he wasn’t quite sure. For being so understanding, for not laughing, for not asking really?, For making him still feel normal, For not leaving.
"Oh, you'll be thanking me," Tony grinned. "Over and over. I'm going to make you feel /so/ good..." He pawed his hand down Bruce's front, trying to think where he'd start. But it didn't take him too long to figure out. The innovator licked his lips, suddenly wishing they weren't out in the open in a public park.

“T-t-tony, Public place. Lots of cameras and children.” Bruce stuttered, Crap, he thought. This was not a good time for this, or a good time. Bruce didnt even know what this whole thing was, let alone where he wanted it to go but he knew he didnt want it to go anywhere in the middle of a park. He placed a kiss on tony’s forehead. “slow down tiger,” he said trying not to freak out. “id rather not make the eight o clock news for public indecency again.”
The engineer laughed. "Well, I guess that rules out /that/ kink," he said as he sat up and held a hand out to Bruce to help him up as well. "Relax. I can control myself," he said with a sideways smirk. "Sometimes."

Bruce let tony pull him up, smiling “suuuuuuuuuure you can,” he said “im just never allowed to take my shirt off ever again because you practically jumped me this morning.” Bruce grinned, not that he really minded. He wanted to sleep with tony, a lot. But he didnt want to be a conquest, just another quick thing and then its over. he realistically knew it wouldn’t last forever because nothing good in his life ever did. But he wanted to make it last as long as he could.
"Sooner or later that shirt will come off, even if the big guy rips it off your back," Tony grinned, messing with the physicist's collar. "Bet he wouldn't be as stingy about messing around in the park either."

“I never thought id be jealous of myself, but here I am” he said with a laugh leaning over to peck tony’s lips “you know if you try to sleep with him, he will probably kill you…. not to mention i really dont think he would be up for bottoming so good luck walking if you survive” he said with a laugh.
Tony coughed into his hand, shifting awkwardly on the blanket. "I'm sure... uh... we could find /something/ to do. Besides, he's been nothing but gentle with me," he reasoned. This was kind of an awkward conversation. But now he couldn't stop thinking about the possibility.

Bruce just laughed, “oh god tell me that isnt your kink. It is isnt it?” he asked looking at the awkward face tony had pulled “im so sorry i didnt mean to laugh its just, strange to me.” It was really, he hadn’t even slept with anyone let alone the other guy… he really didn’t want tony to get hurt.
"I've done a lot of stuff, Bruce," Tony attempted to explain, "Sleeping with a several hundred-pound gamma-irradiated guy is not one of those things. But ah... well, /now/ it seems fair to add it to my bucket-list." He could have face-palmed at his own word choice. Did he really have to be so insensitive? He quickly changed tactics in an attempt to sound less crass. "That is to say... I love you. I love him too. It doesn't seem fair to exclude him, now does it? A jealous Hulk isn't really something we want on our hands. If I'm going to be your boyfriend, I kind of have to come prepared to handle... you know..."

Bruce didnt quite know how he felt, He was sharing tony with, well himself. That thought kindof freaked him out a little bit if he was being honest. But he understood that tony did care about him no matter if he was being taken over by some giant rage monster. “its a little wierd, im not going to lie but He loves you as much as I do. I dont quite know how you intend to get him angry long enough to sleep with him without having him kill you cause he is so pissed off…. but just dont die.” he said trying to ignore the upset feeling in his gut. It wasnt really sleeping with someone else if that someone else was still him in a way, he just… didnt really know how to feel.
"I'm Tony Stark," the billionaire said confidently, waving off Bruce's concern. "I'll be fine." He leaned in and put a tender kiss on his partner's cheek. "You wanna get up and maybe walk around the lake a little?" he asked.

bruce sighed, this was going to be their problem Tony was never going to take anything seriously. “Yeah sure.” he said standing up and putting things back into the basket silently.
He honestly and sincerely hoped he hadn't said anything wrong. It was so easy to say the wrong thing instead of the right thing and make everything a mess. Tony felt a pang of self-doubt as he led them towards the R8 to drop off their stuff so they could walk hands-free. Most of the time he didn't worry about it, thinking that his charisma would make up for anything asinine that might come out of his mouth, but Bruce wasn't like the press or investors or even any of his late-night flings, he couldn't just bullshit the guy and move on.

Bruce walked silently, More distance between him and tony than was probably nessacary but he really just didnt know what to say. He didnt want tony to get hurt, he knew that tony didnt care about himself but that didnt mean that bruce didnt care. He just, wished tony would take something, anything a little bit seriously. But he knew that was asking too much, he was tony stark after all. He was never going to change. Bruce frowned, taking in a deep breath and shoving his hands in his pockets.
The evidence was quickly stacking up in support that he'd said something wrong. Like that was any big surprise. He took a deep breath. "I really am an a**, aren't I?" he asked his friend with a sad smile.
