[The man on the screen looks utterly exhausted. Haggard might even be apt considering the greyish pallor of his skin under his dark stubble and the even darker circles under his eyes. When the video jostles in his hold for a moment, it displays his bare chest before coming up to his face. He looks like he tried to wash off some combination of mud, sand, and various other things best not examined too closely and didn't do too great a job of it. Despite that, he tries for a tired smile and a finger taps the screen before withdrawing.]

First off, I'd like to say that Tony Stark makes the world's most durable phone. I'd do a testimonial commercial, but that might be in bad taste.

Second, I've read some of the information available and I think you'll understand it's not the easiest thing to swallow, but I'm going with it as a working theory for now. Don't ask why, it's a long story.

Third... [He trails off and turns his head away from the camera before looking back at it] I don't know what the third is, let's say I want to issue a blanket apology and leave it at that.

[ooc: The Hulk ended up getting stuck outside at sundown and fought (pounding and getting pounded on) all night. Between that and a chitauri invasion, I figure Bruce is feeling a little run down.]

I haven't figured that out yet. Right now I'm just using the funds to get food and stuff, but I don't know how to pay the rent once the free month is up.

Considering I just fell out of the sky yesterday and I'm relying on the kindness of strangers for a place to stay and clothes, I'm not a big help. How much longer do you have in your free month? I can ask around for you. A kid shouldn't have to handle this stuff on his own.

I'm not a kid.

[ Really, now. ]

Um. Around the first week of August, I think.

Don't take it personally, I think 20 year olds are kids too. It comes from being so old my first computer was stomped on by a dinosaur. [self-deprecatory humor get]

Okay, if I'm still around and you're still around and haven't found a safe place to land, I'll see if I can ask around for you. I'm just a guest where I'll be, so I can't just offer you a place there, and besides... [Besides, being behind Darkproofed doors with a kid and the Other Guy is Bruce's idea of hell waiting to happen.]

Okay. I'll remember your offer when I need it.

[ OMG Bruce Banner offered to help him out best day ever. ]

Okay, Jesse. Give me a day or two to figure out where I stand. If you need anything, you can reach me here. I don't know how much good I'll be, but we'll work things out and maybe I can find someone with room for someone like you.

[Issues? What issues about being a kid feeling like there's no one looking out for him? What are you talking about?]

Thanks, Bruce. You're a big help. [ He sounds happy but in fact he is literally doing cartwheels in his mind because OMG HULK. He's not the most expressive of children. ]

[Bruce is going to need a long time to wrap his brain around the idea of kids/people/anyone getting excited about him or the Hulk.]

I try. I'll talk to you soon. Right now I need to let this nice woman with the swords buy me some clothes.
