Symbiote Shenanigans

Jeff watched in terror as Hela removed a piece of the symbiote, claiming its abyssal power to allow her to release a dark, mystic sphere that ensnared her enemies. He cowered in the corner before the injured symbiote crawled over to him. And when he heard Venom call out to him, the little Land Shark did what any hero would: help those in need. Jeff had already bonded with a symbiote once before, when the Guardians of the Galaxy first brought him to Klyntar... but this felt different. The Venom symbiote wasn't trying to form a bond with Jeff. It was perfectly content with its own partner, Eddie Brock. It just needed to get its energy back. As their minds connected, Jeff could sense this other being was mischievous, perhaps even a little playful — a kindred spirit in that regard. For a brief moment, Jeff and the Venom symbiote were perfectly in sync, their thoughts intertwining in a way Jeff had rarely experienced. "You feel it too, don't you, Jeff? We have more in common than just our love for chomping things with our giant mouths..." Jeff knew that it wouldn't be long before the symbiote recovered and it would shift its full attention back to its true partner. And he was okay with that. But for this one glorious moment, he planned to enjoy the ride... and to make the entire world their feast!
