brotherly love

As Venom leaned over to give her little brother a gentle kiss on his brow the man took his own prerogative and wrapped her up in his thick arms. Knowing she was in no danger Venom allowed him to take control of her much thinner frame. A grin overcame her own features as her sulking sibling seemed to shed the coat of melancholy while he dragged her down to his level. He was not wrong and knew her well, Venom was ever the stiff monarch and few were given a glance of the softer underside that she could possess. There was good reason for that of course, it was her natural defense mechanism.

He ruffled her fur and put a smile on his face, at the very least the conversation they shared would not lead to the end of the world. Like a good sister should, she was there to listen to his worries. Even if there was no real solution, she was there for him. As he was for her, a stark contrast to the relationship that they once shared. The two of them had been entirely different wolves in their youth. Now their bonds were much stronger and reliable. She nodded at his statement and let him kiss her cheek a second time as he thanked her for his second chance.

"We were both young.” She insisted, knowing that blood was thicker than water under the bridge. "And we both know how much a wolf can change.” They had both experienced such drastic changes. Chimera himself, as well as Venom watching her first husband slip away from her.
