I want biological comedy

teapotsahoy:

Some Venom (the organism) story ideas, separately or combined as seem good:

• Venom is not terribly aware of the concept of gender and has certainly no concept of it as corresponding to any particular anatomy.
• Venom basically considers all mammals to be one sort of organism, and is still waiting for Eddie to chew hraka.
• Venom considers gametic reproduction to be, frankly, so primitive as to be mortifying, but doesn’t bring it up out of politeness.  (Venom’s concept of politeness is not recognizable as earth-politeness.)
• Venom is not able to watch television/read/etc without Eddie’s vision and language centers doing the heavy lifting.
• Venom is an obligate anaerobe and finds Eddie’s ability to breathe oxygen badass (but probably wouldn’t tell him that.)
• Venom thinks Eddie’s endoskeleton is hilarious: opposable thumbs!  Sure, I’ll just contract a muscle to pull on a tendon to pull a lever to pull on another tendon to pull on another lever!  What a great way to interact with your environment at all.
• Venom doesn’t know what a slime mold is but surely it must be the pinnacle of earth’s creations.
