Peter is unapologetically a huge nerd. Math and science and computers and electronics and pop culture - all sorts of random things rolling around in his head. And he can talk for hours if not stopped. But, maybe Bakugo likes that sort of thing?

It must be just one of those superhero things, where nothing can be simple and everything comes at you fast. Peter would happily take a slower day, given the chance. At least just once. He'd also like to have his friends back. And his family. And maybe even the jerks from school who poked fun at him all the time. At least that would mean people knew who he was.

Peter has that whole 'humble beginnings' thing going on - parents died when he was really young, raised by his aunt and uncle, not a lot of money. That sort of thing. He was probably, somehow, destined for the whole hero gig.

"What if it's just very heavily suggested and/or recommended?" Okay, Peter's being a little bit of an ass here. And he was like that once - wanting to not be out in the open with all of that sort of thing. To say he 'got over it' would be a little bit of a stretch. He wouldn't have sex straight out in the open with any random stranger back home. But, in this alternate world he's been pulled into, if he means he misses out of unpleasant punishments, he'll do it. Conditioning from living in Duplicity for two years, probably.
