      Hᴇ's ɴᴇᴠᴇʀ been any good at unprompted honesty. Laying down his motivations when necessary and only as much as they are, yeah. But talking about things, especially anything he feels just seems... like a bad idea. Handing over a weapon of kinds to someone. He's seen it often enough. He did it often enough, and yet here he is, watching Adam carefully. He's not sure what they are. What they ever were. If this can be called friendship, or even just allied, or anything in between or on the other end of the spectrum. 

      "You're like, the one person I never quite understood, you know? Couldn't ever follow your thought process." Or reasoning for certain things. Or... anything, really.

may i offer an inbox call until then.

HER ROYAL HIGHNESS, THE COSMIC BRAT.

“Well yeah, I’m not gonna… stop acting out my impulses. I just thought you wanted an out!” He loves her, she’s not buying his act for a second! Though she is memorizing it for a giggle later on.

“I thought the price for your sins was you dying that time. I’m your eternal reward~ Also the food will be here in thirty.”

     "Dᴏɴ'ᴛ ʙᴇ ridiculous. That barely counted as punishment. It made things worse in the long run."

     Which is how things usually go with them, isn't it? He's trying to remember if he knows anyone that never died. He's really trying. Who's — no, not even Cosmo. Not even the dog. Although there's some people that just kind of make a sport of it, trying to get the high score. Take Adam, for example. He's pretty sure if he went to all of Adam's funerals (real or not), he'd have no time to do anything else anymore.

     "Yeah, thank you, I know I did some fucked up shit, no need to rub it in, Ana."

     Yᴏᴜ ᴋɴᴏᴡ, in a way, he kind of envies Thor.

     Not for any of the obvious reasons, like the whole 'being a god' and being built like that stuff, it's something much simpler, and that's the effortless charm. Peter, he's never been good with people that way. He's good with them, yes, but in a 'I'll somehow get you to follow me into literal hell and might toss you under if it's for what I consider the greater good' way, not in a... people actually enjoying being near him way. Never been a social person, just learned how to pretend he is.

     And then you have human (well, Asgardian, but that's just how he still refers to himself as human despite it only being partially true) puppy incarnate flarking Thor. Not to say 'some people have it all', he doesn't even want to know what the guy carries beneath his skin, but he still seriously envies it.

     "Mhh. You know, I've always kind of pictured Asgard as being a lot of oceans. What with the stories of sailing and stuff. It being isles just kind of made sense to me."

     Tʜᴇʀᴇ's ɴᴏᴛ a lot of things that catch him off guard these days. Most of the time, even when something unexpected happens, he manages to get himself back on track without anyone noticing too much; one of his best assets and the thing that kept him alive for so long.

     But sometimes it's small things that really hit hard, and he's just kind of... transfixed on her hair. Probably nothing unusual for her, what with it being this long and such an unusual color, but he sees light catching in it reminiscent of stars, and he just —

     (She's dead. You killed her decades ago. Nothing is bringing her back no matter how much you wish for it.)

     Swallowing hard. Right. Right. Reality. The present. Focus.

     " — sorry for staring, I just. Got reminded of someone."

     "Yᴏᴜ ᴋɪɴᴅ of remind me of a friend of mine."

     Friend, when used by Quill, should always allow for a bit of a liberate stretch of the word. More like 'acquaintance that doesn't always try to murder me', but that's hardly something you use in a sentence casually. Besides, the parts of the galaxy that don't know him just yet don't need to go into it with the same mindset as everyone else. Which usually isn't a good one, frankly enough. Means his own self image matches.

     Taking a sip of his coffee, he rolls his eyes. It's too bitter, burnt. It should be a war crime to abuse coffee like this. Pretty sure it is somewhere. He's going to suggest it should anyone ever again ask his opinion again.

     "Should I be worried about some secret sport's club? One you only get in if your biceps is twice the size of someone's waist? Just wondering."

     Making superficial and quite annoying comments usually was a good start to learning about people. And to have them think you're dumber than you are, in a lot of cases. Never hurts.

HER ROYAL HIGHNESS, THE COSMIC BRAT.

“You tried to kill me in the last universe when I declared you an official enemy of the Skrull peace.” She didn’t forget, even if reality might’ve. She’s ordering Cuban food, since he doesn’t wanna answer.

“Do you not like being my conscience, chauffeur and choomba? You can quit… I’ll go act out my impulses without you.”

     "Yᴏᴜ ᴀᴄᴛ out your impulses with me, too. I'm just here to make sure nobody else murders you. Somehow. Because apparently the price for all my sins is dealing with you."

     He's being incredibly dramatic again. You know, for the flair. And because it usually amuses her.

i don’t remember making the decision to ʀᴜɴ ᴀᴡᴀʏ ғʀᴏᴍ ᴍʏ ʜᴜᴍᴀɴɪᴛʏ. i don’t remember much past the ɢᴜɪʟᴛ. then came the ᴀɴɴɪʜɪʟᴀᴛɪᴏɴ ᴡᴀʀ and a chance to ᴀᴛᴏɴᴇ. and some say I did.

      “Rᴇᴀʟʟʏ? Tʜᴀᴛ’s why you have me? Not because, I dunno, I’m your one friend that never once tried to murder you and isn’t limited to one planet “Your Royal Highness Needs An Uber” calls?”

      He’s not entirely sure what an Uber is and just hopes he used that one right.

      "Dᴏɴ'ᴛ ᴇᴠᴇʀ trust a Skrull. Not like, because of the shapeshifting, they'll just get ridiculously attached to you and then you'll never have a moment of peace ever again. But also because of the shapeshifting."
