[ Eddie dusts off his hands, more a nervous gesture than because they need it. He nods to himself. The landens are either still recovering or scattering, Venom's not asking if he can eat someone, the day is saved. ]

[ There. We are heroes. Are you proud? says Venom, withdrawing back into their body. Eddie's opening his mouth to answer him when he sees Peter looking at him. Oh, no. What's that face for? ]

What's with you? You look like someone just-

[ Thwip! ]

[ Eddie looks down at the web, then up at Peter. ]

What is going ooOONNN?!?!!

[ He tails off into a yell as he gets yanked skyward. ]

[ He's got us! A stalk of symbiote ooze shoots out to grab the weathervane on a building the pass, but Venom loses his grip as they swing past and just sends the thing wildly spinning. ]

[ Eddie doesn't land on his feet, but somehow he doesn't quite look as pathetic as that should. Black veins stand out on his skin, he grits his teeth, seeming to strain for a moment. ]

[ He attacked us! Let us! Venom is snarling. Eddie feels teeth pressing up from under his collarbone beneath the coat, and it's all he can do for a moment to keep them from advancing. He coughs a little. ]

Settle down, asshole!

[ It's applicable to both other people here, honestly. Venom doesn't like it, Venom hates it, but he feels the pressure of the symbiote moving deeper and relinquishing his limbs. The black veining recedes. He can scowl up at Peter now. ]

That's how I fight!

[ He almost slips into "we," barely catching it. ]

What the hell was that about?!

[ His indignation would perhaps land a little better if he weren't still on the ground. ]
