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.
No, dude. No. Don't fucking fade, alright? You're still here, you're still with us. Just hang on, we're gonna get you back. Just be your cool, brave, smart and handsome self, and hang on for as long as you fucking can. We'll get you back.
[Jason looks out at those clouds with him, because it's nice. it's nice to have this, and to have all his determination back. he remembers what that felt like.]
( it's not as if venom wants to be anywhere but with them, but whatever super-lightyear connection that's keeping him tethered to eddie seems to be flickering.
chances are it'll be better if he saves his strength for when he needs it most. )
[ Jason's gonna have to get in touch with Bruce, he knows it. he might be able to find Constantine on his own, but it'll take a lot longer, and his shame, his pride, it's not worth waiting. Jason really does love them, and that's the most important thing. ]
Yeah, ok. I'll rest with you.
[Jason waits till Eddie closes his eyes and then he slowly pulls the window back down, cause he knows once Eddie comes back to himself, he'll likely be freaked about that. good thing is, they're almost where they need to be.]
( that lady comes back to find that her seats been taken and she looks so unamused. but something about gay rights is saying that she's going to have to sit somewhere else. jason and venom are such menaces...
on the bright side, venom and eddie sleep all the way until they land, which wasn't too hard since they were only an hour or so out when venom first got settled. the rough touch-down isn't enough to wake them, which is surprising given how light of a sleeper eddie has proved himself to be. chances are venom is working his alien magic to ensure eddie didn't spring up mid-flight and panic hard enough to get them both arrested, but that isn't as necessary now that they're firmly on the ground and people are beginning to file out. )
[ Jason doesn't sleep. he can't. he's already a terrible sleeper on the regular, but he does feel relaxed enough now to close his eyes to rest a little. he keeps combing his fingers through Eddie's hair because it's as comforting to him as much as he hopes it is for Eddie.
he's surprised Eddie doesn't wake up while they land, and he mentally thanks V for that too, cause he knows it's him. ]
Nah, man. He didn't eat her. He gave her a lesson in gay rights.
[Jason laughs, feeling this intense relief wash over him for so many reasons. he gets up as well, grabbing their bags out of the overhead, handing Eddie his.]
It was pretty much the best shit ever. He didn't even try to, you know. Eat her. I mean he probably thought about it, but your mouth isn't big enough. Not for him, at least. It's plenty big for me.
( it doesn’t sound like venom to do anything but go for attempted murder, but it DOES sound like venom to complain about something as mundane as mouth sizes.
eddie heads off the plane on shaky legs and gets hit with a blast of humid, southern heat on his way into the airport. if there was any doubt as to whether he’d actually made it to Florida, it’s gone now. )
Holy fuck, Jason… we’re here. We did it.
( he has to take a seat and collect himself, even though he didn’t do much more than sleep. it was a very taxing journey. )
I’ll show everything this mouth can do once we figure out where we’re doing from here… we just pick a beach? Any beach? Buy a tent and pick a spot?
[ with a mouth like Venom's, Jason can't blame him. he follows Eddie off the plane, looking around. the heat hits him and it actually feels really damn nice. ]
We did it. We really fucking did it.
[Jason sits down next to him, bumping his shoulder, then holds his hand out for Eddie's phone.]
I'm gonna hold you to that, babe. Gimme your phone and I'll look some shit up. Maybe we can find a beach that isn't as populated. That would be cool, right? Something more chill?
( eddie hands it over easily and leans back in his seat, marveling. from the airport alone, there's not much difference between here and where they were before, but the fact that they made this far is pretty wild to him.
eddie hadn't been on a plane since that trip to colorado, and he's pretty sure venom had him under the whole time. )
Yeah... the less people, the better. We could have a whole beach to ourselves.
( as for the phone, there's nothing too damning on it. his recent searches are for writer jobs in florida and beach-side condos, while his last texts have been pretty benign legal advice from anne about how to fly across the country without getting arrested. )
[ Jason't traveled more the last handful of months than he ever imagined he'd travel before, and he's still in awe of it. he can't wait to explore this place, especially with Eddie. Jason's proud of him. ]
Think we'll get that lucky?
[Jason takes the phone from him and starts looking some stuff up. he doesn't imagine there's anything damning on Eddie's phone, and he's thankful that Anne helped them out. They'd probably both be screwed without her. after a while, he holds the phone back out to Eddie.]
Oh hey, look at this one... it's pretty fucking sweet. Says here it doesn't have as many hotels and tourist attractions so people tend not to go there as much. Bingo, man.
