    Summary

    Five times Matt was certain he’d concealed a "minor" injury from Foggy and Karen to keep them from worrying, only to find his pain silently and seamlessly accommodated. And one time he could no longer ignore the impossible question: how did they always know??

    Summary

    “I want you to punch me in the face.”

    “What?” Her eyes widened instantly. “Matt, I can't...”

    “Come on, it's not just about getting my radar back, it's about you remembering how to fight back,” he grinned. “It should be benefitial for both of us.”

    “No, I get it, but I'm really not sure I can do that,” she stammered, trying not to break her stance even though her body was telling her to straighten up.

    “A building fell on me once, remember? I'm sure I can handle you.”

    Summary

    The flowers were wilting. That’s the first thing that Karen noticed when she returned to her small apartment, tired from a long day at Nelson, Murdock & Page. The vase was silhouetted by the setting sun, perched on her window, the roses overcome with melancholy, their burden to be the sole connection between Frank and Karen weighing them down.

    or

    5 times Frank and Karen parted ways, and one time they came home to each other. Plus the aftermath.

    or

    They shake their heads saying, "God help her"
    When I tell them he's my man
    But your good Lord doesn't need to lift a finger
    I can fix him, no, really I can
    And only I can
    Good boy, that's right
    Come close, I'll show you Heaven
    If you'll be an angel, all night
    Trust me, I can handle me a dangerous man
    No, really I can

    Summary

    For once, Matt Murdock is actually enjoying his life. The law firm Nelson & Murdock is going strong, he's happily dating Karen Page, and he has a pretty amazing new intern working for him—Peter Parker, who always seems to be hiding something. All in all, Matt's happy.

    It's only a matter of time before Wilson Fisk tears it all down.

    As the Kingpin amasses power after the blip, everything that Matt holds dear—his life, his love, his friends—lies in the balance. If he wants to keep everything together... he'll have to let the Devil out once again.

    -----

    "Let every man, woman, and child who dies at my hands," Fisk began, then raised his voice higher. Matt winced. "Let their blood be on your head."

    The smell of crusting blood and stitching filled Matt's nose. His ribs ached with every breath. There was nothing but the pain, the swelling and the searing, the agony of Fisk's own handiwork. Matt clenched his fists.

    "And there will be blood, Mr. Murdock. When this city is in my hands... there will be more blood than even you can atone for."

    Summary

    Issy Daniels was kinda fucked.
    Scratch "Kinda". She was absolutely fucked.
    She didn't want to end up in that dumpster, she didn't want to be found by one of the new Avengers, she didn't want to be an Avenger.
    She just wanted to kick the asses of the Triad. She wanted to start doing vigilante work with Daredevil again. She wanted her normal life back.
    But that Triad asshole had thrown her into a dumpster. Bob Reynolds pulled her out. She found a cat and woke up in the Watchtower.
    Whether she liked it or not, she was stuck here. Issy was an Avenger.

    Summary

    ***

    Frank Castle wasn’t supposed to be in New York.

    But on a quiet street, he saw Karen Page and a little blonde girl holding her hand.

    This isn’t a story about redemption.

    It’s about finding something to stay for.

    Because the night they never talked about—four years ago—might not be as far behind them as he thought.

    Summary

    As Karen's feet carried her briskly down the paving slabs to meet Matt at their rendezvous point, she was focussing each day on staying alive, staying hidden.

    Matt stopped, cocking his head in the way he did when he was zeroing in on something. The hair on the back of her neck stood up as her heart rate rose again in that same sickening way. “What is it?”

    He tilted his head again, as if making sure. “There’s a baby.” He frowned behind his sunglasses. “It’s screaming. No one is coming.”

    Summary

    Maybe he had been wrong and this life as a martyr had never been his calling. Maybe God had a different path in mind for him. But if that were the case, what was the purpose of having him go blind and letting his father die, of heightening his other senses so much that it made it nearly impossible for him to find any peace? Did God just want to cause him pain? To punish him?
    He hated that thought, the idea that the baby was a punishment. They didn’t ask to be conceived under such violent circumstances. They didn’t deserve to come into the world with this black cloud hanging over them. To be born to a father that both loved and resented them in equal measure.

    What if Matt’s distraction during the Punisher trial wasn’t caused by the situation with Elektra and The Hand? What if he was dealing with the aftermath of something much worse?

    Summary

    Not even Apollo had imagined that his father would not only THROW HIM OFF OLYMPUS and INTO A DUMPSTER IN HELLS KITCHEN, but also into a dumpster that was *already occupied*.
    Go figure.
    (Not that Apollo- or, Lester- remembers such an indignity.)

    (Daredevil definitely does though. If his ribs weren't cracked before, they were DEFINATELY broken by the time that a former-god-now-teenager landed on him.)

    Summary

    Karen is worried about Matt.
    “He seemed pretty adamant that Matt was fine. He said that it was nothing to worry about, that he’s just clumsy, and he’s always a mess.”
    The Father murmurs, “There’s some truth to that last part.” He gives her a sad smile.
