[And with that, Nick hangs up. It doesn't take him long to get to the clinic -- thankfully, the place is just down the road from the houses, so it's not too far of a walk on his bad leg.
He knocks on the door, announcing his arrival as he lets himself in.]
[If Bruce had worse control of himself he might jump about a foot and a half in the air. They're too near to the zombie outbreak for Nick to be precisely comforting. Instead he goes nice and still, and processes, he's coordinated, he's watching me, he doesn't seem hostile. Bruce is unmistakably frozen solid, but hasn't thrown his visitor through a wall, which is at least something.]
[That is indeed something. Nick spots the doctor from the doorway, and immediately recognizes that look. It's been a while since he was reminded of what he looks like, but he doesn't stray too far from his usual contacts these days.
So he gives him a cautious smile, burying any annoyance he may have felt.]
Dr. Banner, or Bruce, I presume.
[He reaches into his coat to produce the papers as an extra sign of his goodwill.]

[He goes to put tea on in the meantime.]

[Well. This bit of pertinent information.]
Welcome to the clinic.

Thanks. Never really needed to stop by this place, [for obvious reasons] though I passed it plenty back when I used to patrol more often.
no subject
[He admits, apologetically, meeting his eyes unflinchingly.]
I'm sorry about that. Do you take tea?
