Hope: "It happens. I'm never in public in New York unless my only friends - the other children of the Avengers - my dad, and the other Avengers are with me. My dad and I kind of try to avoid New York." And SHIELD for that matter. Every few months, SHIELD found them and tried to convince her father into letting SHIELD put them into 'protective custody' but Hope and Bruce knew that it would only attract more trouble, not to mention when Ross heard it would upset politics, maybe enough to actually cause the president to allow Ross to kill them. Well, Ross would try to kill them with or without the president's permission, but if he had permission, no one could stop him legally, not even the good captain or the god of thunder. The other Avengers, especially Clint and Natasha, didn't understand why they wouldn't accept SHIELD's protect, and Tony didn't understand why they wouldn't just live in Stark Tower. But they didn't truly understand the Banners, no one could, Hope thought.
