There are about a dozen more questions Peter thinks up immediately based on that response, but they aren't really first meeting questions so he manages — barely — not to ask any of them. Instead, he just kind of laughs.
"Obviously not! Well, hopefully Taco Bell will be memorable enough." Surely greasy fast food tacos are an experience one wants to remember, right? Right??
"Day two. Man, you sure jumped in the deep end." Peter himself has been run ragged as Spider-Man during all of this nonsense, but that's not something that shows anywhere on him. He could be anyone.
"The Forerunner thing is definitely new. But it's been pretty chaotic the past few months. There's a steady influx of people from the Confluences, but it seems every couple weeks, some crazy thing is trying to kill us. Or…turn assimilate us into some lame Borg ripoffs that don't even get to have cool names and cyborg parts."
His brain catches up with his mouth.
"Sorry, that reference probably means nothing to you. Totally fictional reference to some old show from home."
he went to Deerington, which is close enough :')
