Summary
He lingers in the doorway, just a moment too long. A look so fleeting, a voice so soft that Karen swears that if she blinked, perhaps breathed out louder she would’ve missed it.
‘I’ll be around.’
Frank and Karen are roommates. Temporarily.

Summary
Frank’s hand, cupping the side of her face. Frank’s eyes, meeting her across the truck’s cabin. Frank’s mouth, forming soft words that she barely hears. And then he’s flipping the center console up and unbuckling her seat belt, dragging her across the seat towards him as he wraps her up in his arms.
He smells like pine trees.
“Breathe,” Frank is telling her, the word a soft caress on the shell of her ear. His hand rubs along her spine soothingly. “Just breathe, Karen.”
(Or, Karen's dad dies and she has to deal with the fallout. Thankfully, she's not doing it alone.)

Summary
2006. Two years since the man Frank Castle used to be was buried alongside his family, two years since what he became carved his way into New York's underbelly. Forced to flee the city after old enemies joined forces against him, he finds his way to Los Angeles to slip their radar - but John Kramer has plans all his own for the notorious vigilante. Can Frank keep his finger off the trigger long enough to unravel the snarled web of past connections that seems to link him to the apprentices?
or:
In which two jagged souls rediscover a little humanity together.
Sounds like crack, built with utter reverence. Updates are not "regular," but I'm not stopping til it's done. The major warnings (aside from GDoV) have not happened yet.
PROGRESS UPDATE: 6/16/2026 - this project is on hiatus, but I am hoping to revisit it soon when time and focus better allow. Until then, please enjoy and speculate!

Summary
His phone buzzes once. She’s finally resorted to texting him now.
Frank. Pick up the fucking phone.
She calls again.
He answers on the second ring. “Goddamn it, Madani. I told you. Answer’s not gonna change, no matters how many times you—”
“Frank.” Something in her tone makes his blood run cold. “It’s Karen.”
.
Or, Frank gets the call that changes everything.
