Often so, and that's something I'd like to explore more in the future. It's funny how the canon describes Hulk as a "rage monster" but the actions and dialog show that his motivations are far more about fear.

Sooth. Hulk has a lot of past damage, and needs help to recover from that. But he's also an emotional genius, so as soon as he has new input from friendly sources, he figures out how to adapt very quickly. He's not malicious. The more positive interaction Hulk gets, the better he does. I like watching him grow and respond to the team.

Thanks. I'm glad it works for you. I wanted to show how far they've come, to be able to do that. It's not perfect yet, but they're making great progress.
Thank you!
