[not that peter ever really considered the other side the enemy. but it was much easier to follow tony's lead, to do all he could to stop captain america and the others. to try and keep them from leaving.
not that things had gone their way in the end.]
The highlights though. Okay. The Accords were meant to be signed in Vienna, but Bucky Barnes bombed the place, and the king of Wakanda was killed. Captain America went to find him or something. I don't know what happened between then and you coming to find me. But you gave me a new suit and then we went to Germany to try and stop Captain America and his team from leaving, so we ended up having to fight them. Mr. Rogers and Mr. Barnes got away though, and you followed them. Something must have happened though, because you were the only one that came back.
[he'd leave it at that, but once he realises just how that sounds, he rushes to add--]
He was still alive. He was...considered a war criminal though. Everyone who fought with Captain America was, back then.
[wait, this was meant to be the cliff notes version of events. right.]
After that, you helped me out a bunch back home. You tried to help me become a better hero. [although it's a very basic version of the story, peter has a wide grin on his face to accompany the words. sure, there had been some hard times during all that. having his suit taken from him. having a building dropped on top of him. may finding out he's spider-man. yeah, there's a few things he would've preferred having gone differently. but all in all, it was an experience he knows he wouldn't have made it through without tony. and happy. and karen. and...yeah.
any excitement he felt disappears an instant later though. once he realises he needs to move on to what happened next. last.]
