"What was he fond of, since you seem to be the expert?" It didn't matter though, not really, since Zato wasn't around to mess with the life that Venom was apparently happy in. It would be drama-central if the guy showed up, though he thought it might also be kind of sad to watch play out. Maybe he would bring a box of tissues.

"So why did you stay if it made you so unhappy?" Of course, maybe it was like HYDRA, servitude for life and the only way out happened to be a shallow ditch in the middle of nowhere. "As in the dragon and all that?"
