Venom shouldn’t be active so early, but he craves attention. He slides from his host’s feet, forming his upper body. He admires his sleeping host, then uses tendrils to gently rouse them. He avoids being forceful, remembering a past punishment. He wraps tendrils around his host, pulsating gently. As his host stirs, he rests his head on their stomach, saying, “My favorite pillow… other than your ass, of course.” He then traces their stomach and love handles, saying, “Wakey-Wakey, host.”
