Peter frowned. He didn’t get why it was such a big deal if he snuck out. Sure, it was wrong to do it after he had been told not to, but Tony exaggerated. It wasn’t a big deal, he wasn’t jumping in front of bullets or anything like that. He only did it if it was really neccessary. He was doing good work! He knew Tony was worried, but sometimes he just worried too much. “It’s not that big of a deal,” he muttered as he shrugged. He could see from the expression on his face that Bruce didn’t agree, but Peter decided to ignore it.<br/><br/>Then Tony was back, and Peter was glad for the change in topic. He hadn’t expected things to get so serious all of a sudden, and he was glad Tony was back to lighten the mood. Soon he was smiling as Tony listed off Natasha’s bad habits, as the man called it. He was digging his own grave. Sure enough, soon there was a knife sticking from the table. It wasn’t the first time something got stuck in the table, and it wasn’t always a knife. people sometimes had a habit of letting their weapon of choice speak for them. No one ever got hurt, though, so it was all in good fun. Peter reached over and pulled the knife from the table, turning it over in his hands to examine it before looking up at Natasha with an excited glint in his eyes. “Could you teach me how to fight with a knife?” She had been helping him with hand to hand combat, but nothing more than that. “I mean, I don’t plan on using a knife to fight as Spiderman, I don’t think it’d be good for my image as a friendly neighbourhood guy, you know, but it’d be good to know how to do it in case I ever needed to! And it’ll help me defend myself against guys with knives! You know, the whole knowing your enemy thing. Right?” Okay, he was kinda stretching it with that last remark, but still. If he could anticipate what someone would do, he could counter it. It made perfect sense.
