[ If Venom were pettier, he'd be inclined to think that this is karmic justice for all the times he'd seen the world in double, for all the times he'd heard Ocelot and only related to his words as a passive observer instead of an active participant. But that's never been Venom's style: the eye-for-an-eye principle always seemed like a hypocritical way to go about things. He's never been innocent, and no one has ever truly been 100% guilty.
At any rate, for a while, the communications stop there. There's no witty return quip to the request for a horse (he'll think of investing in one if it means so much to Ocelot), no ETA. Just a long stretch of silence, which is, at the very least, consistent with the fake Snake's modus operandi.
Approximately 20 minutes pass before there's a change in scenery. It's not a white horse that heralds Venom's arrival, no, but a white-gray blur of fur that sprints towards Ocelot and jumps, stretching hind legs to paw at the Russian's shirt.
DD barks in greeting, and Venom follows a few paces behind. ]
Ocelot. [ That's it. That's his entire "hello", delivered with the same patient placidity that Venom always wears in every situation, even when the sky is fucking falling.
Still, he seems to realize that that's underwhelming. So he follows that with an upwards quirk of his lips, a leonine cant of his head. ] Got some questions for me?
