Sora was surprising, that was for sure; it wasn't that Chipp was oblivious to how anti-social Venom was, but hearing the boy doubt Venom's feelings on their friendship was a little surprising. So surprising, in fact, that Chipp just had to say something to correct it.

"Really? But he went straight to check on you when all hell broke loose last night. I mean..." Chipp frowned, realizing he didn't exactly have enough experience around Venom to really say what was and wasn't normal behavior for the assassin when dealing with people was concerned. Yeah, Venom wasn't the most social guy, but he wasn't that much of an asshole for an assassin. "... I dunno, it's like you're important to him or something."

Sora's story of how they met was really underwhelming, like it provided exactly no information as to why Venom liked Sora enough to at least check on him. Then again... well, if Venom just liked the kid, Chipp could see why. Maybe he should have just been glad that Venom picked up such a good ally. Maybe instead of asking about Venom, Chipp should have been introducing himself some more.

"Uh... hm... Oh, hey! I'll tell you how me and Venom met! It's kind of an awesome story."

It was awesome because he won, that was why!
