[ Jim offers Peter a small, understanding smile. Not as happy for himself now as he is saddened by his friend's loss. He knows how important Gamora is to him, and how much he must still be suffering her departure.

He rests his hand over Peter's, not giving him any more words of condolence but offering a gesture of comfort that lingers, one that doesn't need to come with words. It also allows them to keep talking about their movie options, shifting the conversation to something lighter that will hopefully distract Peter from some things. ]

Both great options. I must admit, I'm partial to Daniel Craig myself. Very rough and tumble, not quite so smooth around the edges. And God, he was a hunk.

[ Oh no, Jim, don't feel bad. Peter's problems shouldn't affect his friend's happiness. He would be sad to know that's the case. He is really happy that McCoy and Jim are living their lives to the fullest together. The hand on his knee makes him look down, then smile, and lean into Jim's side a little. He's silent for a few seconds, but because this is Peter, he has to break it by saying: ]

So, when should I expect kids? I want to be an uncle. [ He says that with the utmost casualness he can muster, and tries really hard to suppress a grin, before they focus on James Bond again. He really is lucky to have a friend like Jim, to be honest with and talk about pretty much anything. ]

Never heard of him before, but now we have to watch whatever movies he is in. Let me judge for myself if he really measures up to that hunk status.

[ Jim just rolls his eyes at that question, chuckling. ]

Not anytime soon. Besides, Bones already has a kid.

[ Either way, it's not the kind of thing he's ever considered, and they definitely don't have the kind of life for that. Maybe one day in the future they'd settle down somewhere, but he doesn't see that happening anytime soon. ]

Oh, you'll see. He's really something. Bit different from the other Bonds though, so fair warning. What about, ah... Casino Royale? I like that one. Plus, it has Eva Green and Mads Mikkelsen. Even better.

[ Peter grins, playfully nudges Jim, and then stares at him in surprise once again. ]

He does? Wonders never cease today. Is there anything else I missed and I should know? Do you have a devil twin? Is the Enterprise round-shaped? Does Spock like hula hooping?

[ At this point, he might believe everything. Except for perhaps the hula hoop thing. And no, right now, Jim is right that they don't have the right life for raising kids right now. Who can tell what the future might bring? ]

Different is good, I like variety. Casino Royale it is then. I don't know Eva Green or Mads Mikkelsen, I'm not very up-to-date with actors unless they're from the 80s. But I trust your judgment. [ Peter clinks their wine glasses together and takes a sip. He's absolutely going to love Eva Green, because who wouldn't? ]
