Im not sure if this was answered already but what do you think was going through silcos head when Finn tried to stage a coup? More specifically the part where Finn got sliced and silco had a small heart attack cause the possibility of him dying in that moment was NOT low.

That's honestly one of my favorite scenes, and showcases so many complex dynamics, on so many levels<3

Like - on the surface, it's obviously a taste of the day-to-day pressures of leadership Silco contends with. He's King of the Hill in a snake-pit: everyone vying for his position, his second-in-command's loyalties suspect, his own seat on the throne forever precarious.

It's a reminder. The Undercity is a dog-eat-dog world - and Silco has made it ten times worse with the strife and suffering his Shimmer empire sows, even as he's created leeway for more economic and social opportunities by changing the Lanes into an enterprise.

And on a deeper level, it symbolizes the cost of power he's coveted since episode one, and the price he must pay to hold on to it, while his own priorities are increasingly veering off in the direction of a little Blue Bundle of Booms. Who, need we add, by the simple fact of her existence, actively makes his day-to-day governance of such a large operation that much more difficult.

And yet she's his Ace in the Hole - his literal Kingmaker - who's stolen a goddamn Hex-gem from Topside to arm his cause, and who is inadvertently the reason Talis decides to request a parley, because the Council are coming to grips with the chilling possibility that the Undercity may declare war, and that there could be mass casualties on both sides.

Then the whole scene is just a flawless summation of the mounting chaos that is engulfing Silco, and how it reflects in his personal relationships. Because he is being left behind by the breakneck pace of change that Jinx now symbolizes, and because he did screw up, and let his allies down, and because he is growing older, and less adept at the game, because fatherhood is slowly unfitting him for the 'survival of the fittest' mold he'd once been so gung-ho about.

And of course, playing into the whole scene is the fluid power dynamics between him and Sevika. Ostensibly, she's his right hand, and therefore his subordinate. And yet, in that moment, she's that thin line keeping him safe from a literal coup under his nose. All because, in that moment, he's reduced to his core components: his words, his most potent weapons, and the spiel about loyalty, where he actively appeals to the impetus that drives Sevika as a character:

"Brothers and sisters, back to back, against whatever the world threw at us."

On one level it's a deeply manipulative statement. And on another, he's making sides, and making plain he's on her side. Literally: Look how much we've suffered, look how far we've come, look at this callow whelp threatening to undo it for his own ego.

That bit of dialogue is almost a plea, and puts his cards on her table. It also puts the onus of whatever comes next on Sevika, and gives her the choice: Kill me, and doom our cause or Kill Finn, and we'll stay to fight another day.

And you can tell by his expression that he's not sure what the outcome will be. It's a flip of a coin, and he's inwardly prepared to meet his maker if the gambit fails.

And then, ofc, Sevika shocks us all by choosing to side with Silco.

Not only that: she cuts Finn's throat with the same arm she lost by saving Silco's life in the Cannery.

The narrative symmetry is just... mwah~

My favorite part is the way Silco transitions from "Oh shit I lived?!" to "Hmph. Of course I lived."

Because it gets down to what makes Silco such a compelling character. It's not simply his strategic mind or his cunning. It's his talent to think on his feet, and to adapt to the shifting currents.

He's succeeded in a volatile environment like the Undercity because he's not fixated on The Plan to the detriment of all else. Rather, it's because he finds new avenues to execute The Plan each time there's a change in the larger environs, which remain beyond his control because this is not a character in a position of privilege.

This is a ruthless man at the mercy of progress' black underbelly, as much as any other character in the story.

There's so much more I could say about this scene. But it's truly the moment I came to adore both Silco and Sevika as a terrifying duo, and to understand that there is so much history and so many layers between these characters that the series never gets a chance to explore.

This is also what happens when actors are under very tight NDAs.

The "Foggy is no more" comment is so sad, but I still have hope. I was looking at conventions and it seems like Elden Henson is going to be at one of them coming up. Wouldn't it be weird to have him at a convention with Charlie if he's not coming back? Or is it normal to have dead characters at conventions anyway? 

[breckstonevailskier]

this has to be intentional, right??

we've got karen in a brown coat and brown sweater for the josie's scene...

karen in a green dress and brown coat at the courthouse...

karen in a brown coat and green shirt in the finale...

karen in brown coats while she's undercover...

karen in a greenish shirt and brown skirt for the indian restaurant date...

all these earth tones say to me "groundedness." karen represents the real (in contrast to matt's fake life in dd:ba s1) and the real people who don't have superpowers who still fight for justice ("people like her are why i do this").

i think karen also keeps matt grounded in both sides of himself. she's the one to convince him not to give into his darkest impulses (season 3 with fisk and ddba with red hook) and the one to bring out his dd side when he's repressing that (giving him back his devil horn). the hints of red with her wig and her scarf/mask show that daredevil side as well. karen is part of daredevil and she's part of matt murdock and it's a beautiful relationship

If you insist on staying, then you will have to adapt. Question is will you still want the same things… when you have become a different animal altogether?

In the absence of DNA testing and dental records, that's one way to identify a corpse. 😂😂

It's been 10 years and the DD fandom still hasn't learned to post their anti Karedevil stuff outside the Karedevil tag.

Guys, be better.

A park with every minimum acceptable safety standard met. 😊

What if there was a place with all the zip of Nuka-Cola. Wouldn’t that be the cheer-cheer-cheeriest place in all the world.

[breckstonevailskier]

—you coming?

[breckstonevailskier]

Well we've finally seen Deborah there too now. 😁😍

SPOILERS for DDBA S2!

hiding everything under the cut!

DID YOU GUYS SEE WHERE CHARLIE WAS LAST NIGHT???

it’s not the first time this season, they’re filming at the restaurant where matt and karen had their date in s2

the first pic is from march when they first shot there, and they shot again there last night

as far as i know, deborah hasn’t been seen either times, but i don’t see why they would film there if it’s not related to kd

also charlie said he was in costume (that’s why he couldn’t take photos, he ended taking them anyway, i love that man)

but the dress pants, the burgundy shirt??

that’s my karedevil date night idc

also speculations

i’m trying manage my expectations when it comes to the love triangle, i can see them going with both karedevil or kastle or leaving karen on her own cause she’s doesn’t need a man or just keeping the unresolved status quo

but this late in filming? they’re shooting the lasts episodes, and apparently matt murdock has come out of hiding and returned to his civilian life…

we might get our karedevil endgame <3

[breckstonevailskier]

I can't wait for the day that Lucy gets to put a bullet between her dad's eyes. (Ella Purnell's got enough experience with killing her onscreen parents. 🤣 Between Scott Ward, Silco, and Rose, what's a fourth parent for her to kill? 😂😂)
