[there's a swell of pride that comes any time someone thinks he's good at something, and he can't help but smile and revel in the observation. peter rolls the idea of more frequent team ups around in his head. he's not opposed but there is just one part of the scenario that doesn't sit well with him, however.]

Q doesn't exactly get out much, you know. How about we just stick with me being the Peter to your Kate who sometimes offers his expertise.

[sometimes is more than once, and it kind of seems like kate (and by extension clint) might benefit from a person who doesn't quite look at a computer like it's some alien life form. currently, the computer's just making typical hard drive whirring sounds. all normal. no need to worry. but kate's asking him about kingpin and peter has to shrug because he'd been busy...]

I hope so. Didn't spot him. Yeah. I know but I was also kind of making sure you didn't need a hand.

[is that his way of admitting that maybe he cares a little? possibly. but there's no time for elaboration, because the progress bar finally hits 100%. peter clicks ok and then they're in. he looks over questioningly at kate, recalling her earlier tech-y helplessness before he offers to keep helping.]

Alright, what am I looking for in here exactly?
