Summary
After the slightly awkward self-discovery first year at Columbia University, Foggy is ready to head into the second year with his good friend Karen Page and roommate turned boyfriend Matt Murdock. Of course, nothing ever is that easy for a Nelson.
Conquering doubts about going to college, making good friends, and not shoving his feelings down long enough to become Foggy's boyfriend should've left Matt in a better place to enter his second year of college. However, there are still things his new boyfriend doesn't know, like his work at The Scratch Club, his past, or the simple fact that he doesn't know what it means to actually date someone.
The boys' picture-perfect romance was supposed to be the highlight Karen's otherwise messed-up life, she tied herself to. They had promised not to be idiots this year, but with the way their first year ended, she should've known better. Add that to the new partnership between her, Felicia, and the Nine Lives, Karen is sure they're all in for a long year.

Summary
Karen Page had no delusions of mattering in a city so cold and cruel as New York. Being born in Hell's Kitchen assured that her fate would either become a helpless victim or have her name splashed on newspaper headlines. She didn't even matter to her own family.
Being chased out of the hospital one night, Karen runs into a woman dressed in a black body suit and a black mask. It isn't until she realizes that the woman wasn't some figment of her imagination that her life starts to turn around. The gifted bell bracelet she receives from this woman seems to be a lucky charm.
Unsure if there is a catch to having her life turned around she decides to attend Columbia University. There she meets two interesting men who might actually give a damn about her.

Summary
When Foggy Nelson gets accepted into Columbia Law, all he can think about is breaking away from the family butcher business to become a lawyer until he meets his blind roommate, Matt Murdock. Through their awkward meeting, Foggy learns that he enjoys spending time with the serious, grumpy nerd, who doesn't know anything about pop-culture, and soon builds a friendship with Matt. But as the year goes on, Foggy has to wonder if what he feels for Matt is strictly friendship or something more?
Entering Columbia University, Matt is doubtful that this new chapter of his life will work out. Being blind and an orphan is hardly a concern when he can barely pay the financial aid to attend classes, and he's roomed with a slightly overbearing Foggy Nelson. Before long, however, he learns to enjoy Foggy's presence and strikes up the first friendship he's had in years since the accident that took his vision. But Doubt lingers in the background, warning him that with all the secrets he holds, this friendship can not last forever.
------------------------------------------------
This fic is the first in a planned series in a College 2000s-esque AU.
Enjoy the slow burn.Series

Summary
“So, Mattie… wanna learn how to do what I can?”
“...”
‘Use your head, not your fists.’ Jack Murdock's voice echoed in Matt's head like a bell, a reminder to a promise he made.
The boy was quiet for a moment, busying himself by getting a lick of the ice cream in his palm. It was cold to the tongue but sweet and comforting. It was just what he needed after waking up.
“No.”
There was a long pause as Stick processed what the boy said.
“What?”Series

Summary
On that first day, Foggy realized two things:
One. Matthew Murdock was amazing, funny, lovable, and shy. He knew, beyond a shadow of a doubt, his roommate was gonna become the best friend of his life.
And two… he really, really wanted to suck his roommate's dick.
Which probably was not a very platonic thing to think about the man you’ve just met.
Foggy was aware he wasn’t exactly straight. If puberty wasn’t an indicator, the intense desire to ogle beautiful men was also a pretty good clue. He’s never exactly done anything about it, though, is the thing. No matter how badly he wanted to.
So, he covered it all up with a bright smile and polite little nods. Even when the recipient couldn’t see them anyways.-----
A story about Foggy discovering his sexuality, being an idiot, and realizing his best friend might also be in love with him. **FIRST CHAPTER is set in college, and is in past tense (since it happened in the past!) The SECOND CHAPTER is the present, in present tense, and is set post season 3 of Daredevil!!!
