Superego
Project GTSE* is functionally and paradigmatically separate from Project GHL. GHL has a complex of specific objectives: enthusiastic consent prior to experimentation from Dr. Banner when he is fully conscious and capable of consenting, physical comfort for all parties concerned, and the assurance that if anyone wants to withdraw consent, they can stop the proceedings. The step by step objectives are partially physical in nature because Dr. Banner requires objective proof of safety in order to give his consent, but the ultimate goal is emotionally based.
By contrast, Project GTSE has a physical goal and the intermediate steps concern the logistics of achieving said goal. It requires a strict regimen of pegging, plugs, and fisting that is difficult to maintain while both the participants have important responsibilities such as saving the world and running a company. Progress continues when physically possible and pleasurable for participants.
The material outlay is considerable.
There is no delineated period of transition from GHL to GTSE, given that GHL is an ongoing initiative and GTSE is essentially a functional subproject of GHL utilizing part of the personnel required. Seamlessly merging the endpoint of GTSE with the continuing vision of GHL requires a demonstration that GTSE has succeeded with no direct input from Dr. Banner, though he has had some functional input under the auspices of GHL.
*Named for a remote consultant renowned worldwide for his facility in the required skillset. Backronym: "Project Get Tony's Sphincters Expanded." Pepper rejected "Project Get Open All Tony's Sphincters Exceedingly."
Ego
Bruce stares at the collated lab reports in Pepper's PowerPoint: relevant data with figures illustrating particular moments of success. "You're terrifying," he says. "Is this what those 'Working on a project' nights were about?"
"Only about a tenth of them," Tony says, sitting on the edge of his chair. Bruce can't believe he can sit down at all. "Go back to page twenty-six. That's my favorite."
Visions of audacious diameter applied to willing anatomy dance in Bruce's head. Page twenty-six is a chart, not a photograph, and mercifully not one of the videos. Bruce skims the chart again, alternating green and purple rows culminating in numbers that are still fundamentally incredible. "Okay, you've shown that it won't kill you. Will it be worth the effort?"
"Only one way to find out."
Pepper smiles, serene. "I won't let you test each other to destruction."
He squeezes her hand tightly. "I know."

Lying.
"I don't lie to you."
"He made me stop all the time," Pepper--safe.
Safe?
"Yes."
"Take it slow."
So hard, slow. Too much, too deep--"Don't stop," no breath, need breath.
"I'm okay. Just--yeah--yeah."
"Oh--"
"Holy fuck." Good--deep-- "We did it. We actually--"

"Slowly," Pepper. Safe.
"Yeah, that's--yeah--"
