Summary
Bruce Banner's a fugitive genius professor who could pass as a homeless kid. He's also a puzzle that Clint Barton can't quite figure out. So he gives Banner a hard time, hoping to see some honest reactions from him. Still, Clint volunteers to babysit Banner and take him where he wants to go when Hulk lets Banner out once a month. Clint does it as a favor for Hulk, his good friend. After all, Hulk is a fellow Avenger. Banner, he's not an Avenger. Clint made that clear to him.
But when Banner starts refusing to take his day off, Clint decides it's been too long since he's seen Banner's freckled face.

Summary
SHIELD's official term for it is "detainment." That's what they call locking Bruce away for eight months in what is, essentially, a windowless 450 square foot apartment, give or take a bit; he's done the measuring and calculations a few times, but the walls always throw him off. An alternative back story for how Bruce Banner ends up working with SHIELD. Eventual Hulkeye.

Summary
The battle of New York was a turning point for the entire planet – but especially so for Bruce Banner. This is a unique chance for him to find the Hulk a place in this world. It is a staggering hope, but unrealistic as it sounds, it might just come true.
And then his hesitant plan turns out to be too successful. Everyone including the Avengers apparently expect the Hulk to take his turn in the spotlight. But the more Hulk thrives, the more Bruce withers, and nobody seems to notice or care. When Loki extends a hand to him, he is fully aware it is a trick – but he has got nothing else to hold onto.
The Avengers realize just a bit too late how royally they screwed up. The sharp-sighted, ever-watching Hawkeye cannot blame himself enough for not having seen this disaster coming. Can they still be saved from Banner ?
Do they even deserve it ?
(The story is set right after the 2012 Avengers movie with slight EMH dynamics thrown in the middle.)
