Symbiotes – a sentient intergalactic goo that must merge with human hosts to create
super strength beings.
You may know the work of venom, for example – a fangy toungy creep who wants to take
over the world by populating it with more symbiotes.
Cool.
While they may be extra-terrestrials out there looking for a new planet, the Symbiotes are
fiction, made up by the ever illustrious marvel … but what if they were real?
Hello and welcome back to Life’s Biggest Questions, the channel that loves a good delve
into pop and comic culture.
Today we are asking – What if Symbiotes were real.
If you haven’t yet checked out our channel the Top 10 Nerd then please do so!
We are all about a symbiote over there!
Also before we get started, why don’t you guys let me know if you have seen venom yet?
Also let me know what you would do if a symbiote inhabited your body?
Like – share.
So Symbiotes have the ability to merge with humans and they need to do so in order to
survive on planet earth.
In the marvel verse they are from the Klyntar species and they arrive on earth via a comet.
When they take a host, they pair with them, enabling them to have super human strength
and abilities, and when they leave – the original host often dies or relies on the
intake of another symbiote.
They’re kind of like an addictive drug, I guess.
So if Symbiotes were real then this would be pretty worrying for the good people of
earth.
If you have seen the movie venom, enough damage is done by one of the hybrid creatures, let
alone a whole race of them.
Oh and the fun news is, a symbiote offspring is stronger than its predecessor, which means
they keep on getting stronger and stronger and more volatile.
The thing is, as much as the symbiotes want to live inside us, humans benefit from the
pairing, too.
Not only do humans enjoy super strength and ability, hosting a symbiote can cure us of
ailments while they are inside us.
For example, Eddie Brock is able to survive indefinitely with terminal cancer, and those
who are disabled are suddenly able to walk again.
These superhuman traits would be very attractive to a lot of people seeking power, or more
vulnerable people trying to survive sickness.
For this reason, I feel like if Symbiotes were real, humans would try and harness their
powers – many willingly pairing with the aliens to better themselves.
Other perks of the symbiote union include the ability to change size and shape at will
– which means that, if we adopted them on a mass scale, people in the street might start
looking a little different.
They cab also breathe underwater – which would mean that humans, or hybrid humans as
we would become, can utilize more of earths space.
Earth as we know is four fifths water.
What would this mean for marine life?
Could symbiotes merge with, say, whales?!
For all their positives, symbiotes human hybrids are filled with rage as they lean towards
the more negative areas of human instinct – which means a lot of destruction and negativity.
Coupled with being a parasite who want to populate the earth, this sounds pretty unstable
and destructive…
clearly the authorities would need to try and stop the Symbiotes in their bid to infect
humans, the only trouble is…they’re pretty unstoppable…although they do have a weakness
to sound, fire and chemicals.
Perhaps we could find a way to stop them with a military attack.
Symbiotes are also dependent on a chemical to stay sane and healthy – phenethylamine
– which is found in the brain, annnnd in chocolate!
Hershey’s , Nestle, Cadbury – it is your big day…or your worst day, depending on
whether or not the authorities stop the production of chocolate to quell the Symbiotes.
The only issue is – if we stop the chocolate there is only one avenue left for them to
stay fit – brains.
Oh right.
The symbiotes would start cannibalizing their hosts….
But when happens when too many have been eaten?
Say the Symbiotes take over the entire population, how can they form a productive society?
With all their rage, they cant get it together to make chocolate…and if they eat all their
hosts, they’ll die too.
What a predicament.
U say the best course of action is for the authorities to nip the simbiote plague in
the bud by luring them into a chocolatey trap, and then exterminating the blighters.
Perhaps scientists would try and study the illness evading properties of the symbiotes
and replicate that DNA strand on earth without all the downsides… but honestly, they are
so volatile.
Even if we kept the remaining organisms in labs for study, what is to stop them getting
out LIKE in venom?
We have had some fun talking Symbiotes, but maybe they ARE real.
Recently a cigar shaped comet passed by earth that some scientists are saying could have
been an alien probe….an alien probe comet filled with gloopy leeches, maybe!
Or, maybe not – but either way, there could be other life out there that we don’t know
about that wants to harvest humans or our earths resources.
What will we do then.
I feel like Nasa is keeping an eye out for us and the world governments would have some
kinds of plan, but I suppose it all depends how strong the other beings are.
One final thing…not to shock you all, but technically speaking, we are all symbiotes.
It only means that we are fused with other creatures.
Our digestive system contains trillions of bacteria and other microorganisms…soo.
Watch out?!
So guys, what do you think would happen if the Symbiotes were real?
Let me know in the comments section down below.
