Fuck me, this is why you don’t ask me for sequels. When the People Have Nothing To Eat is by miles the most popular one shot I’ve ever written, so I bowed to pressure and wrote a sequel.
It… is probably up there with the first installment of Sex Love and Robotics in terms of the most awful thing I’ve ever written. As in dark, traumatic and triggering, rather than badly written, I hope. Just an ongoing trainwreck of utter fucking hideous.
I mean, guys.
They ate the president.
No way are they getting away with this.
Oh man, I hear you. I still have a half-finished Star wars fic I need to get to that’s a sequel ppl asked for.
I have to admit though, there’s an idea for this that’s making me grin. Like, if Venom stayed in the suit the whole time he was, ah, going out for take-out, as it were, Eddie could probably fly under the radar as long as nobody outed or discovered his secret identity.
I could see Anne and Dan not being happy about it, but keeping his secret. So maybe you have the Avengers, cops, and gov’t ppl chasing Venom, but Eddie is reasonably safe, and in fact, since his move back to New York, several newspapers/news agencies have contacted him about doing an article about Venom killing the Cheeto and his VP.
I have no idea if this next bit is feasible, since I have yet to see the Homecoming movie, but if Peter Parker is still a budding journalist, during a fight with Venom he throws out a line about having a friend who wants an interview. And either at the end of that fight or another one, Venom pauses just as he’s about to leave, looks back at Spiderman, and goes, “we’re you serious?”
Peter: About what?
Venom: About that interview.
Peter’s mind blanks for moment, then he scrambles upright ignoring the bruised rib, and goes “yes absolutely!”
Eddie has this quick train of thought about how complicated and dangerous it would be to set up an arrangement to meet or even give Spider-Man a way to contact him, and goes, “okay, take me to him.”
Peter: Huhn?
Venom: Your journalist friend. We’re doing this now.
Peter, swearing internally: I can’t. He’s, uh, he’s busy.
Venom: Deal’s off *starts to turn away*
Peter: Wait! Okay, I’ll take you to him.
So Peter takes Venom to his place, but then an additional problem crops up: Venom is not willing to let Spiderman out of his sight, because Spider-Man could alert the rest of the Avengers as to Venom’s whereabouts. So after another round of hemming and hawing, Spider-Man in desperation asks if it’s okay if he does the interview himself, instead of having his ‘journalist friend’ do it.
Venom: *curious* You?
Peter: I know most of the questions he’d ask anyway, so-
Venom: *makes a leap of intuition* /You’re/ the journalist.
Peter: Wh- me? Nooo, I’m not- that’s redicu- of course not!
Venom (mostly Eddie): … if you want to do the interview, I’ll keep your identity secret.
Peter is severely conflicted at this stage. This is the kind of story that would put him on the map. Everyone wants this story, and would pay handsomely for it. But can he really trust Venom to keep his identity safe? Would it make Peter a target of Venom’s too? Peter has to make a snap decision, and he does.
He pulls off his mask, and sticks out his hand, “Peter Parker, nice to meet you.”
Venom: *returns the handshake* Venom.
Peter: *wry grin* Yeah, the big purple people-eater everyone’s talking about.
Venom: *frown* We’re not p- *pause* Oh.
And that’s how the interview between Peter Parker and Venom happens.
If Venom does have to stand trial for killing the Cheeto and the VP, Anne is definitely, if not heading his defense team, then at least on it. The defense’s position would probably be that yes, Venom committed the murders, but it was justified/not a crime he should be punished/killed for, given that the Cheeto and VP presented a clear and present danger to both the American ppl (especially queer ppl, immigrants, and POC) and possibly the world as a whole.
Oh man, I love your theorizing, but this fic is going a hell; of a lot closer to how it would play out IRL. Basically with a lot of misinformation, good people doing bad things and human rights abuses up the wazoo.
On the plus side, later Venom gets to hang out with wildlife park rangers, who have absolutely zero issues with his tendency to eat poachers and leave piles of teeth, penises and human skins behind as a fuck you.
