"I only tried to punch your face in because I thought you were one of the copycats." Peter flexes his wrists, tilting his head, which was about as expressive as the suit would allow. "But you're trying to do something good. Protect people. That's not a bad thing, Harry." Though Peter would suggest changing the color scheme so people don't see the Goblin coming for them. "Everyone deserves the benefit of the doubt." Even if Harry didn't believe it himself, which Peter wasn't convinced that he did.
"The Avengers are...big picture. They save the world, no matter the cost. That's a job that needs doing but me - I'm here for the little guy. I can't live with a cost others have to bear." Which is another reason why Gwen and her father were so damn hard for him. He is his Uncle's son. "Wouldn't be New York if they didn't."
"It's fine." And it was. Peter surprised himself with his own sense of...calm, about it. He blames himself, and that's more than enough. But that's certainly not a conversation Peter is willing to have with Harry right now, as Spiderman, when he hasn't even been able to broach the subject as Peter Parker. "...blame or not, I just wish they'd stop chucking trash. I only have the one suit, you know."
"Maybe after the next practice session. Which can be - when do you normally practice?"
"Constant vigilance!" Peter has to stifle some real laughter when Harry gets his glove stuck to his chest. Ho man, that's gold. Peter just starts slow clapping as the snickers begin to escape, despite his best efforts. "I think it's time to call it a night, unless you'd like to try fighting with one arm. Could be interesting. Vote now on your phones!"
