tbh, you're the person I've been wanting to interact with the most, but since i am trash, I cannot. Your portrayal of Matt is spot on and you seem like an awesome person to be friends with. Keep doing you, because you're awesome.
ahhhh this was like the best thing ever to wake up to! thank you nonnie <3
i’m sure the last thing you are is trash – please message me and we can chat about threading!
if you’ve replied to a starter call or a meme i’m slowly working my way through everything because i’m a trashcan so please bare with me
well. college had been expensive. she could work her way out from under it on her own eventually, but not now. not when she was still struggling to be outside at any point during the day. struggling to pretend that she was NORMAL.
“she thinks i left because i had some kind of psychotic break. i didn’t –” well. “i mean she has – it’s a convincing argument, but i didn’t –”
he nods, studying her as she speaks. it was odd that she
came to him, but he couldn’t complain - a client was a
client, no matter the guise. there was something different
about her he couldn’t quite place – her heart beat was an
odd irregularity, with a unique tempo that would be
distinctive in a crowd.
“
do you mind elaborating a bit? what kind of break
did she think you had? that might give us a better
idea of her mindset…and what we can use to your
advantage to prevent her exercising power of attorney over you. “
“ and by pretty smooth, is that the alcohol talking? ”
he cast his visionless gaze in foggy’s direction, one brow cocked,
lips curled in a smirk. “ or do you suddenly turn in to a smooth
talker when i’m not around? ”
they don’t talk about that day often - the day hell’s kitchen went up in literal flames.
matt shrugs.
“
i owe you buddy, plain and simple. probably for putting up with me all these years.
”
a laugh escapes him and he takes a drink,
enjoying the refreshing taste and momentarily forgetting about the pain
his body was experiencing.
“ hey, i’m a smooth talker even when you’re around. plus, i have the adorkable thing going for me. it’s part of my charm, just as your wounded, puppy-dog eyes are a part of your charm. “ he smirks at he shoots back his own remarks.
foggy had never been the one to shy around the fact that matt was blind; it was just a part of who he is, and he was just a regular guy [ barring the superpowers and being a vigilante ]. he knew that strangers would often be shocked by his remarks, but matt took foggy’s comments about matt’s comments as they were meant, and that was all that really mattered to foggy.
“ matt, you don’t owe me anything, not for my friendship. that’s not how this works, “ he teased, keeping the light tone alive.
“ aDORKable – yeah, sounds about right.
”
he lets out a hearty laugh; certainly that could be the truest thing to ever come out of Foggy’s mouth.
the fact Foggy had zero inhibition about the fact Matt’s
blindness - and the fact that he even played up on it
sometimes - constantly reminded Matt how much he
appreciated having the guy as a friend. the two had been
together through thick and thin, and Foggy had stuck around
through the whole Daredevil thing as well - there was really
no one else he’d rather have be on his side for this long.
“ I’m glad you’re an expert in friendship now too, Fog. Might need to keep you around for when that comes in handy.”
i’m L O V I N G all the positivity on my dash tonight! keep it up everyone <3 you’re all awesome. i think i’m going to make a mun video blog because i’m bored as hell
“ I was hoping you wouldn’t walk in to see that — ”
He frowns, wishing Jessica hadn’t walked in when an appreciative client had decided to quite aggressively launch into hugging him in gratitude for the work he and Foggy had done defending her husband.
