Title: Lab Dabbles

Paring: Tony Stark and Bruce Banner

Warnings: none

Spoilers: ?? I don't know

-----------------------------------------

After New York happened and the world was thanking The Avengers for their work to save the world, everyone went their own ways.

Tony Stark only knew from eavesdropping that Natasha had gotten a case with Cap and that Clint was getting some rest and relaxation after having a Norse God in his head. And everyone knew Thor had taken Loki back to Asgard to pay for his crimes.

And that left Bruce and him.

The Science Bros.

A hulk and a genius millionaire playboy philanthropist, teamed up. To mess around in Stark's own lab and make things seem possible. It was the man who thought Gamma radiation would have made him a super soldier and the guy who at nineteen made a robot and engine.

"Do be a dear and pass me the base, Dr Banner," Tony called out to his at the moment not hulked-out friend.

Stark looked up to see Bruce scowling. "It's closer to you than to me," he protested. "I'm trying to -" he cut himself off, rolled his eyes and added, "you're doing a cabbage test, Tony. Not life saving procedure."

Stark laughed. "Base, Banner?"

Bruce looked to the roof where he knew a security camera was placed and gave it a look like something from The Office. Dr Banner handed the base to Mr Stark.

"Thank you," Stark grinned, putting a few drops of the stuff into the cabbage leaves. "What is it you're making, then, Bruce?"

"Not sure." he frowned.

Whatever 'not sure' was evolved over the hours. Stark watched from his cabbage test, potato test and later the dehydration test - all high school science, but were absolutely fun - as Banner's 'not sure' shaped into a structure of metal wires and into a robot of sorts.

"Robot, then?" Stark pouted, guessing his Science Bros' invention.

Banner smiled. "Yeah, but I don't know what it does, I just made it able to move and respond to a remote, which is somewhere..." Bruce began rummaging in the rubble of his desk space. "Here."

Tony nodded. "Give it a go, then."

Bruce pressed a button and the little machine slowly rose from the table like a sped up film of a building construction - and the robot took the shape of the angry Hulk.

"Niiiice," Tony crowed. "That's neat. For someone who doesn't have a history of robotics."

Bruce nodded. "Wait."

He hit a button on the control and the bot began to dance a slow sort of fairground dance.

"Awesome!" Stark cried. "Jarvis! Look at Dr Banner's robot!"

The AI voice came from overhead. "It is quite quaint, sir."

Bruce and Tony couldn't take their eyes off Bruce's dancing hulk for the rest of the day.
