Do you keep chatting or do you eat in silence?
Keep Chatting.
You really want Monica to become a better person. Thats not going to happen if you keep treating her like a criminal. You need to treat her like a person. "So, are you and Carmilla's dad still a couple or are you on the market?" She chuckles. "I am definitely on the market. Though for claritys sake me and Thanasee's father only had a 1 night fling."
You ask her another question. "Have you ever been in a romantic relationship before?" She shrugs. "Not really. The only relationship I've ever been in was back in college with a man named Bruce Banner. Even then I was only dating him to steal his research. I've never been with someone out of love before."
You get curious. "Because you're not interested in love or because you haven't found the right guy?" She smerks. "Are you hoping you are the right guy?" Its a good thing the symbiote is covering your face so she can't see you blushing. Her smile turns from playful to wicked. "Let me go free and I'll give you a chance." You shake your head. "Star Labs is working on a way to send us to our home dimension. If I don't know where you are when they are finished, you might be left behind." She nods in understanding. "Very well. It would be foolish to try to escape then.
For the record I'm not aposed to being in a romantic relationship. I've just been busy and the other AIM scientists aren't exactly husband matirial. Outside of being a super hero, what do you do exactly? Construction worker? Dentist? Chef? Mayhaps you are in a scientific feild? I am dieing to know."
You answer her. "I am a celebratiy tabloid photographer." She chuckles. "You're paparazzi? I thought you where a superhero. Why would you have such a scummy job?" You huff. "1. Less scummy then being a terrorist. 2. It pays the bills. 3. It wasn't my first choice in career. My cousin and I loved taking pictures back when we where kids. It made me want to be a wild life photographer but I wasn't making enough from that." She puts her hand on top of yours. "If you worked for AIM, I'd pay you well and give you enough free time to presue your passions as a hobby. Wait. SHEILD isn't paying you?"
You look away. "No comment." She moves her hand away. "Fury, Fury, Fury. To think you'd stupe so low." You speak up. "We're changing the topic or this conversation is over."
She moves her hands up. "Very well. So, where did you get this Symbiote?" You finish your food, then you answer. "Venom was being controlled my a meteror and creating a bunch of Symbiotes to try to concor the world. It happed the day before SHEILD attacked your island." She nods. "What's your Symbiote like?" In this timeline, you have no idea your symbiote is a person. "How it was created was strange, so it doesn't have a personality.
So, what field of science are you in?" She gets giddy hearing you say that. "Well I studied robotics at New Mexico Desert State University. I then studied Biochemistry at University of Padua in my home country of Italy." You smile. "You where probably very accomplished." She sighs and looked away. "I used my relationship to exploit Banner's radiation exertise for my own research. I used it to invent antitoxins and antidotes for environmental poisons. Now I make poisons instead of curing them." You put your hands on top of hers. "It's not too late. You can go back to helping the world instead of buring it down."
