Bruce watches the display utterly flabbergasted and charmed. What's he supposed to do with a sappy love song combined with the Thriller dance?
"See? You haven't changed at all."
What a bizarre night, from the vampirism to their strange fight, to how fragile Tony is now, or was, but Bruce is definitely putting his money on the idea that he still is. Bruce doesn't think there's much he can do other than persist in being here that'll convince Tony that he's not going to leave him. Granted, it's easier to promise him that here when Bruce has no escape routes; at home, he wonders how or if things might be different. That's a cruel train of thought, but Bruce has a streak of cruelty he doesn't like to acknowledge, so he puts it aside.
Tony needs him now, and he needs Tony, he knows that. They are better together; Tony makes him a better person, and Bruce hopes he can make Tony see what a good person he is too.
He comes forward and catches him in a kiss.
"I would be just fine waking up to that at 3 AM. Should we add that to our band's repertoire?"
