[She would call him foolish if he talked about forgiveness, as her own sins have played a major role in it. Hubris, thinking that she had outsmarted Thanos, that she could outsmart him. He'd been always at least one step ahead, no matter how hard they had tried otherwise. Had she not set foot on Knowhere, how would events have played out? Perhaps he would have been able to find out the location of the Soul Stone through other means, but he had a means before him, in her.
Had Peter ever understood the request that Gamora had made of him? The true significance? She knows it had not been an easy ask. He'd already lost those important to him, starting with his mother. Yet here she had been, asking him to pull the trigger, and he had. In the end, he had. Too little too late, for Thanos had thought of that too, and if Gamora ever saw another bubble, she likely would destroy it.
That deadly silence, a stillness, listening as he speaks. She could have gathered as to how he would have felt about it. His heart on his sleeve, it had broken her and she knew it would break him.
There's that hiccuped snort, as that isn't at all what Gamora would have said. No where close. Then again, with her, it's not always about the words that she speaks, but about those that she doesn't speak, that are written between the lines in the actions that she does. But that flash of grief and sorrow, because it isn't a weight he should have taken all on his own. It isn't a weight she had wanted for him.
She likely could guess as to an answer of that, having not been one of the ones snapped away. There are balances to the world, natural progressions, actions and consequence and rules that are typically abides by. She was dead. Dead before Thanos snapped his finger, that sacrifice for the Stone. But it's the end that makes no sense. How could she just be there? How could she have no recollection. She'd had no sister, at least none that she knew of. Doubted a clone, but one never knows...]
A price. [Gamora quotes softly.] To ensure that whoever possesses the Soul Stone, understands its power. The stone demands a sacrifice. You must lose that which you love. A soul for a soul.
[And does he understand those remembered words that Gamora had overheard. Does he understand the implication? Had Nebula explained any of what had transpired between their father and them? The choice that Gamora had made. Save one and throw the rest of the galaxy away...]
I found the location, Peter. I told him where to find it.
