Gamora's rundown had helped put Peter a little bit more at ease and got him thinking that space really could be more cool than scary. Maybe. He took out his phone and sneaked a few pictures of Ned in the co-pilot's seat - they'd probably be nerding out over all this in a big way later.
When the ship started to lift off, Peter gripped at the armrests of the seat, trying to play it cool. He was Spider-man, right? He'd gotten through a whole lot more than a trip to space with two people who were definitely professionals at this. "Awesome," Peter said. Even though his stomach was doing flip-flops, Quill's exchange with the officials was pretty badass.
Before they soared out of the atmosphere and things got real, Peter looked over at Shuri. "Is this your first time in space?" Wakanda was so far advanced with their tech that he wouldn't be surprised if they found a way up before anyone else did.
