( Peter's a compulsive worrier, but he's learned now that he shouldn't push. He pushed too hard and too much, and- and isn't that what happened with the mystery his father left behind? Peter needed to know some part of his father so he pushed into Oscorp, into a formula which should have been left hidden. Isn't that what happened with Dr. Connors too? Push, push, push, and now the man'll be in jail for life, because of Peter, because Peter cared too much, because Peter projected.

That's what happened the last time they spoke too, and it ended disastrously so he doesn't push this time even if he's not reassured. ) Yeah, we all just make the best of this place, but it has its upsides too. It's all anyone can do, y'know? But I thought I'd check in anyway. I know Jemma was worried. ( and so was Peter but he knows that's pretty obvious. )
