icarus

I am sorry.

I am sorry that you will have to go through this.

I am sorry that your family and friends couldn’t help and protect you from this madman and his stupid, insane flying monkeys.

I am sorry that the fight will be so much harder now.

But know this: you are loved, you and your life are valued, and special, and unique.

We may be internet strangers, but we feel with you, we cry with you, we scream with you.

We mourn your deaths, murdered by politicians that use their power to suppress everyone around them, and we will do everything we can to help you.

But to be able to do that, you have to keep fighting, keep living. Show that fucker that he may be able to buy, lie and cheat his way to the top, but he won’t be able to silence you. Our ancestors fought for us, and we will continue this fight. For us, and all the children terrified of being themselves.

I beg you, don’t give up, no matter what they throw at you.

It will be hard, but together we can survive and live.

Always remember:

"now?" "now, yeah,"

However the contexts are also so very very different. The threat in this movie was nothing they'd faced before. They were tired and broken down. Eddie was fully ready to give his life with Venom too. He was fucking exhausted and when Venom saves him, what little energy Eddie had is gone. He doesn't have time to react. He's in shock and so incredibly incredibly human. Unable to run to Venom. To fight for them.
