[One of Peter's powers is the ability to make shit awkward in any given situation. It's not his favorite power, but he's grown to accept it.
He can't help but grin a little. It's not every day that Captain America himself starts tossing praise at you. Peter's inner fanboy is losing it's mind right now, but he's mellowed out a bit since that thing in Germany. And also this whole Hell business is kind of a buzzkill in general.]
That's not quite the important bits that I had in mind, but uh, thanks? I- I kinda meant more in a way that like, I don't wanna say something like "Oh man I can't believe so-and-so did this thing" and then you be here like "Whaaaat nobody told me that" and then things get weird. Or, y'know, weirder.
[As long as Steve already knows all the bad news. Peter definitely doesn't want to be the one to have to break that kind of stuff to anyone.]
