[Wow... This-- This was quite a bit to take in all at once truthfully. He had, over time, accepted Venom as a casual lover, but he never thought that the other man had such intense feelings for him. After all, all of their flings were spontaneous and physical for the most part... weren't they?

And Miles already knew how Phoenix had felt, he had admitted it some months ago without hesitation. After all, it was hard to deny that, after all these years of building tensions, that what he felt wasn't real.


None the less--]

What has happened here isn't your fault Venom and you shouldn't have to take the blame for something you genuinely feel.

[He sighed, bowing his head as he contemplated things over.]

I only wish I knew what it was you were feeling much sooner.

[And then he looked up, his expression taking up a tone of seriousness he never had to show during his time in El Nysa so far.]

Do you mean it? Everything that you've just said?

[Did he really end up dragging these other men around by the heartstrings without realizing it?]
