Yes, Bruce had that look. It wasn't that different from how he looked at Tony when they first met, and still did, when they were in bed together or in the lab laughing. With Thor and 142, they were admired from a distance, far above him. He wouldn't note it as a crush, but it certainly might be on the infatuation line. They were so impressive. Powerful. Brilliant. He walked among gods. Since he lacked any kind of sexual push, or at least not since that little flutter with Nat, he wouldn't actually see them past these warrior gods.
But yes, everyone was into Thor. It was impossible not to be.
"You were the first thing I asked for. I didn't know you were retired." All he could think of was to reach out to the only person he could always count on. Bruce was terrified at the time. He gazed back at Tony's face, and plenty of that adoration was looking at him with deep brown eyes. He didn't try to hide it. Why would he? "I know you would have gotten involved anyway, but I'm sorry I brought it right to you, when you didn't have a choice." He'd looked so happy with Pepper. Moved on. Bruce had wrapped his arms around him and collapsed into the embrace, and everything felt okay. It was selfish.
He was intrigued by that. Strange was very clearly not a sentimental man. He said the stone was everything to them. "That's not what I'd expect." Bruce took Tony's free hand with his own, threading their fingers together, just because. "That's something I would do." Maybe he thought Tony being alive was necessary if they lost, to help pick up the pieces. "Maybe he had his own reasons."
