No Zombies are always good news. [ He should have expected her to know about the Infinity Stones, there are different people from his universe here, but Viveca bringing that up still catches him off guard. It actually startles Peter, but he tries to keep his voice level. Years of keeping a good poker face helps. ]
I don't mind you being an A.I., that has never been an issue, promise. [ That is an honest statement, he's met other robots with advanced intelligence before, and he knows that the Kree empire is ruled by one who embodies the empire's greatest minds. They're people to him, just like everyone else. ]
The thing about trust is that it needs to be earned, it's not something that can be forced, even if I wanted to. You've been nothing but helpful, and there are people here who are alive thanks to whatever power powers brought us to this station. Someone who has the power to gamble with life and death is someone I better not piss off. I do want to believe that we're working to help people, not hurting them...but absolute power corrupts absolutely. What if once we collect all the orbs, their power is too strong to be contained? What if the Commander decided that he could use them instead of restraining them?
If you know about the Infinite Stones, you might know about Thanso and my father, father and how that ended. I don't want a repeat, enough people have suffered already.
