Did I miss something again? Because WHY IN THE NAME OF KNULL can the symbiote suddenly “talk”???? What happened between 2000 and 2003?????

Did the writer tying to retcon the whole thing? By making everything Dark

™

and Gritty

™

and Edgy

™

? And the Symbiote suddenly Evil

™

?

It’s so jarring reading this right after the 90′s stuffs. Feel almost like reading some Venom kink prompt fill.

And the whole cancer stuffs is… am I watching a Korean Drama TV show? (it’s a overused trope in those shows) Can’t the symbiote simply take care of the cancer cells? It’s established that they can cure human, they can simply eat the tumor cells so I don’t get what’s the big deal here.

I guess we’re supposed to sympathize with Eddie and think the symbiote as an evil being? But thanks I’ll see this as canon-fanfiction which means I’ll ignore it’s existence.
