all i’m saying is that literally anyone else with bruce’s back story would have become a supervillain. like, he was abused and watched his father murder his mother, he was tricked into turning himself into a monster, lost literally everything, and instead of trying to get revenge, he hides and tries to help people and desperately does everything he can, up to and including trying to kill himself, to protect the world from the hulk

See, when I was your age, I saw something real bad happen to my mom, and I was scared, too. I didn’t feel like talking, just like you. But see, my mom—I know she wanted me to be brave. I think about that every day. And I do my best to be brave.
