Fandom: THE AVENGERS
Pairing: Hulk

Why this must be read: Because it is the events of the Avengers through the Hulk's perspective. I will always, always, *always* read fic from Hulk's perspective and of all the many, many I've read, this one is by far my favorite. Hulk isn't treated as child-like or simple or merely made of rage. He's richly complex and has an opinion on everything. I especially love Hulk's opinions on motorcycles and Stark.
Hulk Knows is beautifully poignant and will move you.
Excerpt
Banner leaves the lab to find things out. There's a new person, very large and blond. Hulk finds him vaguely annoying.
Then another smaller person walks in. Something about the way he moves tickles Hulk, like Banner thinking. Perhaps the way he's always talking, always gesturing. He thinks out loud; he thinks with his body. Hulk can feel Banner thinking in response.
Stark, he's called.
Stark walks up to them. He greets Banner, shaking his hand. Then - and Hulk likes this - Stark looks at Banner's eyes, then through Banner's eyes, and greets Hulk.
Hulk likes Stark.
