[imperatour]

Would you stay?

[decodex]

I didn’t used to think so. And I still don’t love that we’re all, like, hostages.

But I like the people.

[imperatour]

People are what make a place home, I guess.

[decodex]

Yeah.
I’d say so.

You doing okay here?

[imperatour]

[ For some reason this is the thing that gives her pause. She's not used to people checking in on her. ]

Haven't lost any more limbs.

[ Always a win. She isn't exactly in a position to go from 1 to 0 complete arms. ]

I've survived worse.
Never kissed my way out of a blood sport arena.

[decodex]

( venom wants to talk about her arm but, god, you can’t just ask people why they’re missing limbs. that’s one of those tactful, human practices that aliens are egregiously unfamiliar with. )

Wouldn’t recommend it. There’s, like, no scenario where kissing strangers goes well.

I’m still not entirely convinced that you and my ‘brother’ aren’t coming for me in my sleep.

[imperatour]

[ Disappearing and reappearing ellipses. The suspense!! ]

We're not
It's not like that.
Just to be clear.

[decodex]

( is she sure— )

No, yeah, I know.
You said as much before.

Still, though.

You don’t have to be together together in order to serve up justice. Guzzoline style.

[imperatour]

[ Nothing says "definitely not true" like jumping to assert it multiple times!! ]

You really gotta hate someone before you drench up in fuel and light them up.
Can't waste the guzz.

I talked him down. [ For now. ] Now his only grudge is that you stole his face.

[decodex]

Wait, that’s a thing??

Tell him
Actually, I’ll tell him myself.

[imperatour]

Yeah, think he's the type to hold grudges.

[ Pot, kettle. ]
