Mark Ruffalo for THR, April 2014

Urban Ascent’s event planner calls the fundraiser’s theme Hollywood Chic but Bruce thinks of it more like celebrity glamour, all decadent food and lavish decor. There’s a photographer, too, hired to take “glamour shots” for all the gusts.

Bruce avoids her.

The suit’s too expensive and ill-fitting (Tony promises it’s not, it’s just a slimmer cut than he prefers), he’s without a tie, he needs a hair cut… It’s better for everyone if he just skips out on the fake glamour and spends some quality time shaking hands.

Of course, Tony finds him.

Of course, Tony shoves him in the path of the photographer and her backdrop. 

Of course—

“Tony,” he finally sighs to where the other man is directing the photographer, “I feel and look ridiculous. Can we just stop?”

“Not until I get one really good picture of the hottest man in the room,” Tony replies. Bruce rolls his eyes. “And before you argue that that’s Steve, or Thor, or anybody else, let me please remind you: bathroom, half-hour before we left, all because of that suit." 

Bruce flushes. The photographer looks incredibly interested.

"One good picture,” Bruce agrees.

Tony orders the whole series.
