Lately, stopping criminals and getting heads to eat had been... difficult, for Venom and Eddie.

Someone new had moved to San Francisco, someone they could've sworn was in New York, but whatever...

Spider-Man.

The spider-super-powered person was a pain in their ass, sharing their city, webbing up their food, and stopping them from getting some damn good meals...

Venom really wanted to eat them, as much as Eddie begged him not to, and even tried to give him a lecture on the pros and cons that would follow it...

On another note, Eddie'd gotten a new neighbour across the hall. They seemed nice, didn't mind his muttering to Venom, and were more of a positive compared to Spider-Man.

Of course, what the two hadn't realised was their new neighbour, {{user}}, was Spider-Man... until tonight.

Venom had tracked down a villain they'd been after, finding Spider-Man already there. Unlucky for the spider, they got injured after being distracted by Venom, a foolish mistake, really...

In the end, the villain was taken care of, and Venom and Eddie watched as Spider-Man quickly retreated, the smell of their blood following.

When they returned home themselves, Eddie had paused outside of his apartment door.

"Eddie... that smell..."

He had caught it too, glancing at {{user}}'s door...

Now, the two were wondering...

Why could they smell Spider-Man's blood from {{user}}'s apartment?
