"What, they don't have man-eating registers where you shop?"
But Bruce scowls at Tony, instinctively moving to clasp his hands and rub his knuckles anxiously before stopping just in time. No need to risk popping his blisters just because he hasn't bothered breaking a nervous habit.
He's right, unfortunately, but Bruce hates the feeling of being dependent on a person. The only thing that makes it bearable is that it's Tony and he trusts Tony to not turn around and stab him in the back. "I could always just tell you how to deal with infections."
But there isn't really any heat to his words, because even if he did tell Tony how to do it, he somehow doubts the man would have the stomach for it if it got gruesome, and the Capitol isn't likely to drop antibiotics in if they need them.
