Why would I do that? Your personal goal is not your fault.

( this is a level of concern and care he literally does not get, peter pls. )

We will see. There are many other important things at hand than my relaxation.

Still. Someone less understanding would have gotten offended. And because sometimes insulting people, playfully, it's fun. Have you ever tried?

[ He will get you used to it, young man!

And ah, that answer sounds familiar. Very Gamora and Nebula-like, he knows the type. ]

Maybe but your state of being affects your performance, it's inevitable. Being relaxed would always help you act more efficiently. we could go have a drink or maybe for a ride. Do you have horses in your homeworld?

I do not care to.

（ he's a serious man, and the chance of someone taking him seriously because he lacks the inflection or comedic timing is... high. if he is to be cruel, he would rather it be deliberate. ）

Please do not mistake us as being alike in our needs, Peter-san. My performance is not affected by such things.

（ why is it that this is the second time in a month someone is telling him he needs to relax? smh. ）

We do have horses, but I do not ride them.

Then I won't insist on it. [ Peter likes teasing people and sometimes pushing their limits, but he can take a no for an answer, no matter the subject. ]

Ah, is that a ninja thing? And you can call me just Peter, I'm not big on formalities.

[ Maybe it's because people worry about you, Itachi. A new concept! ]

Riding is a lot of fun, especially if you go fast. I got myself a white horse, I can take you for a ride. Come on, it will be a new experience. This is Silver.

[ Peter sends him a picture of what is the prettiest white horse, Itachi might have seen in town. Peter saved a lot of money to get him and he was worth every penny. ]

Please consider that using honourifics is a choice I prefer to make.

（ he is a polite man, that much is true — but it also insists on distance. he does not wish to be comradely. ）

I'm considerably faster than a horse. Is the speed the only allure?

（ the fastest shinobi (of which itachi is one) can literally dodge lightning because this canon is Fucking Ridiculous. ）

Okay. Should I use any specific honorific while talking addressing you too?

[ Peter from all people understands the importance of respecting people's names, given how much he isn't on his 'Star Lord' nickname. He addresses both McCoy and Hermann Gottlieb by their doctor's title for that same reason. It does help that he likes them both, otherwise, he wouldn't bother being polite. ]

Woah, really? That's incredible. Maybe we should race instead. And no, well, not just the speed. Horses make good companions, and going out for a walk with them, it's a way to just enjoy nature. Also, the horse is not doing ALL the work while ridding, so learning how to control them right improves your balance, coordination, and flexibility. Taking care of a horse could be considered a training regime on its own since you need to stack hay, bring them water, control them when they get spooked...

[ Peter, a certified horse girl, knows all his Horse facts™. ]

Unnecessary.

（ he's never really cared what people call him or how they say it. he's been called much worse than his own name. ）

I see.

（ it's okay, he's a certified cat boy so he gets it. kinda. ）

Have you found the horses to be 'alive'? I know some of our psionics are finding the animals to be otherwise.

Okay then, your name is easier to remember.

[ As he mentioned, Peter's really not That is adorable and it's truly a shame that Viveca doesn't let them have pets at the station. Playing with kitties and petting puppies would do wonders for everyone's health. ]

I don't have any powers that could help me detect if they are the real thing or not, no. But they behave real for now, and sometimes playing pretend is good enough.
