It takes considerable effort not to look too bemused by Kaz's collection of new limbs, to reacquaint himself with these new footsteps instead of the quiet click-shuffle of crutch-to-foot. In a way, it helps; if there'd been any doubt as to what this place is capable of, Kaz's brought himself over as irrefutable proof of the things that Venom hadn't been convinced of on paper.

You first.
[ Because there's a very real possibility that Kaz doesn't know what he does, and it would be unwise to break that to him right out of the gate. ]
