He flashed Peter a smile of his own, the expression amazingly genuine. "Good."
He liked the idea that his brother seemed to honestly understand where he was coming from, that he wasn't going to try and convince him this was a case of with them or against them, that he was still his own man, rather than forced to pick a side. And while he wouldn't tell Peter this, that alone was probably more than enough to make him lend a hand, even when something came up in this whole mess that he didn't have a personal stake it, and all because he'd been given a choice. Funny how that worked.
"Anything else you wanted to ask me?" Not that he was trying to get rid of his brother, but Peter had put the same question to him, a few minutes ago, and he was feeling surprisingly candid.
