Summary
It didn't take very long after reuniting for Eddie and Venom to establish ground rules around their cohabitation. A whole edifice of rules actually, rules on rules holding up more rules, stacked so high the pile would take them back to the comet Venom came from, if they kept going the way they were. In fact, Eddie thinks to himself, keeping Venom in check has made him realise how very obsessed with rules humans are. Society, he supposes. That's exactly what it is. Rules to keep humans in check.
Or Eddie and Venom get used to their life together, while Eddie tries to manage his petulant child.

Summary
Venom come to understand the word 'routine' as a set of personal rules, decided by each human to suit their own needs. A 'routine' is necessary because human bodies and minds require a large amount of self-care, as they are fragile, inefficient, and generally quite rudimentary structures. Their human, Eddie, is especially bad at the concept of a 'routine', despite being the one to present the idea to Venom in the first place. This fact joins others on the long list of things Venom choose to refer to as 'contradictory human behaviour'.
Or Venom come to understand why having a routine and good hygiene are important for Eddie's sense of self-worth, and Eddie realises that relying on Venom for help when he's not feeling his best is perfectly okay.
