we are venom

“Oh? No mutant has a talkative parasite living with them inside their body? I’m slightly surprised, actually.”

“Stay away!” The two words were a mix of Eddie and Venom’s voice together, and in a flash Eddie’s body was replaced by his symbiote’s. Venom took one thundering step closer to Gamora and bent down to be at eye level with her. “It’s a bad place. Full of death. And war. It’s a cage, and I escaped.”

Venom screamed in his head, and Eddie visibly cringed. “I think he got the message. I’m finally realizing how much you really don’t like symbiotes.”

“This is better than reading. Much more fun.”

“That’s how I was at first. But then again, I had no idea what was going on.” Eddie commented, feeling Venom perk up in the back of his mind. The idea of another symbiote was bound to get his attention. “Venom and I.. we just click. We talk. We experience everything together. Maybe yours is looking for a change of scene or something.”

Eddie smiled. “I like having him around actually. It’s been long enough now that I think I would get.. lonely, if he ever left.” He paused, listening to Venom make an off-hand comment before looking back to Scott. “Anything’s possible. I figured mutants would understand that more than anyone else.”

“Being with Venom is like having the complete opposite of guilty conscience, actually. That’s the simple way of describing it, why do you ask?”

“Other people have kids, don’t they? I don’t, but still. Someone else has gotta understand where you’re coming from.”

“Don’t you ever wanna just say.. fuck it? And go out there and do whatever the hell you want?”
