( eventually, eddie's eyes open again, but he doesn't move much beyond that.
he's resting against something warm, and everything is comfortable and soft, even if they're super unfamiliar. he doesn't know where he is or how he got here, but he knows what jason smells like, and he knows that he's looking down onto the planet earth from way up high. it's been a while since he's done that. )
[ Jason starts to close the window when he feels Eddie wake up, but then he stops, looking down at him. his gaze quickly darts over to the lady next to them, but she's fast asleep. hopefully she drugged herself or something. ]
V?
[he slowly slides the window shade back up again, eying Eddie.]
( with the window opened, eddie leans across jason's lap to press his face to it, trying to take in as much as he can before looking back up at jason. )
THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS HIGH UP. THINGS THAT EDDIE WILL NEVER KNOW THE JOY OF. BECAUSE HE IS A PUSSY.
FERRIS WHEELS. ROLLER COASTERS. SKY DIVING.
JASON. WE COULD BE DIVING THROUGH THE SKY. LIKE COMETS.
[ Jason can't help but laugh a little when Eddie sprawls across him to look out the window, and now he's really glad the lady next to them is out like a light. she'd be flipping her shit right about now.
but Jason's thought are here, with Venom.]
Can't help your fears, V. Sometimes they run real deep.
[Jason keeps looking out the window, running his fingers through Eddie's hair.]
I'd go in a tiny rocket ship with you if you ever wanted to. Or maybe just sky diving, as long as Eddie's passed the fuck out the whole time. Wouldn't want him puking through the air.
( having the maturity of a ten year-old-boy, venom thinks someone puking as they fall through the air is hilarious. when a kind steward comes by for drinks and doesn't why a grown man is spread across jason's lap like a buffet, venom orders 'hot chocolate, with tiny, tiny marshmallow which float upon the surface like lily pads on a ravine' with a grin that threaten to look too wide on eddie's disappointingly human face.
[ Venom probably wouldn't think it's funny if he was puked on, though.
at least the steward doesn't make a comment about Eddie sprawled across him, and he doesn't want to trouble her for any more than a hot chocolate which she's not even sure they have on a plane like this. luckily Venom doesn't get any weirder than that, though... and doesn't try to eat anyone's head. ]
Florida. We're going to Florida. We're gonna get a place by the beach and learn how to surf. You like water.
Shhh, it's cool, it's all good. That's actually... thanks for that. It's good to know, man.
[he wants to say more, he wants to tell Venom how they're gonna help him, but he doesn't want to give too much away. he doesn't know if they'll be able to anyway.]
( annoyed, he licks jason's finger and finds that eddie's body is too stubby to make that satisfying. back in his own body, he could have wrapped his tongue around the length of jason's arm! he's pouting while he licks jason, which looks so goddamn weird when the steward comes back with their drinks, but she just smiles like this isn't the weirdest thing she's seen on an airplane as she sets the hot chocolate before them and walks away. )
EDDIE IS MINE. AS ARE YOU.
I CANNOT ABANDON WHAT IS MINE.
...WE ARE LETHAL PROTECTORS.
AND YOU IDIOTS WOULD NOT LAST LONG WITHOUT ME. I AM THE BEST MEMBER OF OUR TEAM. THE COOLEST. THE BRAVEST. THE SMARTEST.
( he tries to take a sip of cocoa and scowls when it burns his tongue. must everything about eddie's body be so useless?? )
[ Venom can be so amusing sometimes, especially still in Eddie's body. the lick tickles more than anything, and look, as much as he does miss seeing Venom in his full form, he's also glad that isn't happening right now or this plane would truly be going down.
when the steward comes back with V's drink, Jason just smiles back at her and kisses Eddie's jaw and waits for her to leave before looking back at V again. ]
You sure as fuck are the coolest, bravest, smartest. Handsomest too. We're lucky as hell to be with you.
[Jason tugs the hot chocolate closer to him and blows on it for a little while.]
( you're really speaking his language, man. forget the cocoa. acknowledging venom for the smart, cool, brave, handsome alien that his is is the fastest way to his heart. he takes 2.2 seconds to unbuckle his seatbelt and lift the arm rest between them before he's jumping jason and covering him in hugs. )
NO ONE HAS RECOGNIZED MY GENIUS... FOR SO LONG.
IT IS NOT ENOUGH TO SIMPLY KNOW YOU ARE THE HOTTEST PERSON IN THE ROOM.
SOMETIMES, YOU MUST BE TOLD.
JASON, HOW I'VE MISSED YOUR TINY HEAD. AND YOUR BIG HEART.
[ Jason can't help but laugh because this is definitely insane, and the woman next to them definitely stirs this time (she might be drugged). but look, Jason't gonna hug him back. he hugs him back with all he's got. ]
Oh man, okay.... yeah you know what? I totally feel that. Sometimes you just gotta hear it out loud. I've missed you too. You've got no idea how much.
[he laughs a little, and then the lady next to them pipes up.]
Excuse me! This isn't your personal living room! Have some class!
( venom's somewhere between cuddling up against jason's neck and covering his cheek in kisses when she chimes in. he looks at her, and once again is annoyed by the fact that eddie's jaw doesn't unhinge and swallow people whole the way his does. boring, useless, lame.
he's just going to have to act natural. )
I AM EDDIE. I FEAR FUN THINGS.
GAY MARRIAGE WAS ESTABLISHED DURING THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION IN THE SUMMER OF 2015 FOLLOWING A 5-TO-4 SUPREME COURT RULING WHICH DEEMED IT UNCONSTITUTIONAL TO DENY SOMEONE THEIR RIGHT TO EXPRESS LOVE FREELY.
SO. TO DENY US THIS AT THIS MOMENT WOULD MAKE YOU, LIKE, REALLY, REALLY SUCK. KIND OF A LOT. DUDE.
( he could do a more convincing eddie impression if he really tried to, but he thinks he hit the highlights. )
[ Jason's half way between relieved that Eddie's jaw can't unhinge, and wishing he had more middle fingers to flip her off with, but Venom takes care of it all first. ]
Yeah, dude. Exactly what he fucking said. If you don't like it, you could just take a seat on the golden throne for the rest of the ride. You'll fit right in there.
[he does flip her off this time, and she huffs about three times before she gets up out of her seat and does in fact march down the aisle to the bathroom.
( venom does a little wave as she storms off and grins once she retreats. a victory where no one loses their head? weird, but he'll take it.
and now that she's gone [for now], venom can kick up the armrest on his other side and use the new room to stretch out across two seats. he lays his head in jason's lap and places his feet in the lady's chair, knees folded against the back of the seat. )
( venom sits up enough to kiss jason's lips and... if we're comparing kisses, eddie is definitely the better one. venom's all tongue, unsurprisingly. )
[ Eddie's definitely a better kisser, which Jason is thankful for, but look, they're all in this together and that makes it good enough for him. he's a sentimental fuck, despite all the crassness and cursing. ]
...Yeah, man.
Yeah, we're working on it. I'm gonna do everything I can, alright? Just hang in there, bro. We got your back, always.
