"Lucky for you, weirdos are a hot commodity around here," she teases, giving his reddening cheek a little poke. "Back home I was a science experiment and an assassin for what turned out to be the bad guys and then a fugitive from the government... lonely, friendless, miserable. And I'm probably dead back there by now." Not that she thinks there's a specific 'now' in the timeline, when the entirety of it exists at once.
"So I get not feeling up to par. Especially when I compare myself to so many people here who are so effortlessly sociable and charming, could never figure out what I could possibly have to offer. But despite all that, turned out all my weird flaws and paranoid tendencies actually weren't just something that Peter tolerated, but actually complemented what he needed out of a relationship too." She's sure the levels of trust and communication she requires to feel comfortable would come off controlling to anyone else, but it's the sort of thing that she can provide 6 in return. They're good for each other, but probably not anyone else.
"So that's what you got to look out for. Somebody that appreciates those great qualities you have. That makes you feel good about yourself when you're around them. Those are the people worth holding onto."
