bussythor:

n*tasha: (kisses bruce and then shoves him off a cliff, hoping that his fear of falling to his death will bring the hulk out)

bruce: (hulks out because he’s terrified of dying)

thor: hey uh…i’d appreciate it if the hulk could help me save my entire civilization. oh…? you’re not comfortable with that?? okay, i understand, there are other ways that you can help us.

bruce: (sees that the situation is next to hopeless without hulk, and changes willingly in order to protect thor and his people)

Hmmmmmmm. It’s almost as if Nat sees Bruce as a tool/ monster while Thor sees Bruce, no matter what, as a friend 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Also: Natasha can “calm” the Hulk just as easily as she can provoke him, effectively giving her complete control over Bruce’s transformations. Which is something not even Bruce can do a good deal of the time. She only allows him to be angry when it benefits her, effectively making him bottle up his anger when it isn’t convenient. Considering that Bruce’s anger issues most definitely stems from being an abuse survivor, this power imbalance becomes even more unhealthy and manipulative.

Thor, however, actually sits down and talks to the Hulk and lets him express how he’s feeling, even trying to recruit him when most others would only consider talking to Bruce. He stops the Hulk when he goes too far or tries to keep him contained when he could threaten their safety, but generally he treats him with respect.

In Natasha’s eyes, Hulk is a monster that has to be controlled, like her. In Thor’s eyes, Hulk is a powerful, yet brash man, like him.
