Summary
Foggy often wondered how that day would have played out if he hadn't had a migraine, if he hadn't spent all day and all evening curled up in bed, the curtains drawn, lights off, and a sleeping mask over his eyes. He wondered what would have happened if his best friend wasn't a blind, enhanced individual who could navigate this new alien world. It wasn't helpful to dwell on what ifs. But what if...

Summary
Matt and Foggy are kidnapped at the end of their second year at Columbia Law. They wake up in the hands of Baz, the unpredictable lead trainer for the Earth Arena, the 'greatest circus on Earth'. Baz is convinced Matt will be the next great superstar performer, but Matt's only goal is to play the game long enough to successfully escape the fortress-like compound. While Matt's investigating the extent of Stick's involvement in the kidnapping, Foggy's forced to come to terms with the fact that his college roommate and best friend has hid his incredible skills and abilities from him for two years (and Foggy also discovers that he's a rather talented costume-maker).

Summary
Matt removed his hands in a triumphant gesture. "There! What do you think?"
“It looks like a 3D print. How in earth did you do that?", Karen asked in awe.
"You just saw how," he said, confused.
"Yes, but how do you make it look so real? I mean, not even someone who can see could do that."
"Maybe that's my advantage," he mused. "Or maybe it's the model."
Karen groaned. "You have the worst lines."
****
Nelson & Murdock has closed, Elektra is dead, and Matt's confession to Karen didn't quite go according to plan. Jobless and at a loose end, Matt starts making art after a trip to The Metropolitan Museum of Art (and he's a total savant, of course). Matt, Foggy and Karen soon come to believe that the art world has as many sharks as Landman and Zack.Series
