Bounding Bouncing Bludgeoning Baby Blue Beast - Tumblr Posts

02.     entry made on the best night of their life.

From an Avengers journal found placed, with great care and love, in an Avengers archive maintained by Edwin Jarvis. The book was clearly old, but has been re-spined and maintained so that it won't age, a fact helped by it being digitised and vacuum sealed.

On the front is a very leisurely, very attentively drawn signature for one Henry P. McCoy - an effect that Hank apparently decided to ruin on purpose by slapping an official 'BEAST' sticker on the front, perhaps because he was so eager to show off his merch.

WAHOO! Henry Philip McCoy, Hank to his friends, the Bounding, Bouncing, Bludgeoning Baby Blue Beast to his enemies - and now, to the whole world? AVENGER! I honestly didn't think I'd make it, yanno? I thought, there's no way they're going to let me on the team, they already have brainboxes, they've already got strong guys, they've got everything, they're the freaking Avengers - but then! BUT THEN! I think the Edward G. Robinson gag really sold them on it, I'm not sure, but regardless, they were definitely impressed. The Mighty Thor, the Winsome Wasp, the Invincible Iron Man, THE Doctor Pym (DOCTOR PYM, CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?), the - Moondragon, person, honestly she's kind of intimidating I'm not sure what her deal is - BUT THE AVENGERS WANT ME! God, I could kiss you, Toad! Well, not actually, but, you know. Sentiment! They keep saying it's not official, that I'm still on probation, yadda yadda, but I'm here! I'm at the Avengers Mansion! I COULD SCREAM! In fact, I think I'll go outside and do just that! Iron Man told me to knock it off. IRON MAN TOLD ME TO KNOCK IT OFF WITH THE SCREAMING! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? God. I've never been happier.
