( Peter is not a lawyer, so he doesn't really have an astute argument for that particular idea. though the concept of someone having no choice but to fall for him is absolutely absurd, actually more bizarre than the idea anyone would compare him to an angel (and Matt is catholic. he knows his angels). he has no idea what kind of jedi mind trick he'd pulled on Gwen to get her to love him, considering all the mistakes he'd made in their relationship. he definitely doesn't find himself lovable, but that sort of happens when you spend most of your life hating your own existence. Gwen was supposed to be the anomaly, lightning doesn't strike the same place twice and everything. Matt is acting like it was easy to love him, and Peter is pretty certain that's not the case.
he is half baffled, but, half touched, almost despite himself. it's not that he's accepting it, that's a far ask. but accepting that's how Matt feels... well, maybe he can do that.
he huffs a sad laugh and it's paired with a smile, still a little stained but certainly a lighter than anything else Peter has been displaying this entire conversation. he doesn't fight the kiss, in fact after it's over his hands find the back of Matt's neck to look him in the eye. Matt can't see him but that doesn't mean Peter can't see his reaction, and that's what he's looking for. ) Is that your weird catholic way of saying you love me?
