In honor of his birthday on July 10, let's show our love for Franklin P. Nelson and share our hope for the future!

Celebrate by posting any type of Foggy fanwork — fic, art, gifs, video edits, playlists, etc. Or explain what Foggy has meant to you and/or why he's an essential part of Daredevil, now and forever. We want him back!

In addition to your usual tags, add #we love foggy and feel free to tag @kdheaven as well. And please share this announcement with your friends.

Can't wait to celebrate Foggy with you on July 10!

I feel like this is an unpopular opinion, but more people should read incomplete/unfinished/in-progress fanfics.

I've noticed this huge trend where creators on tiktok and tumblr who will be explaining how to use Archive Of Our Own to new users and they always say "and make sure to scroll down and click completed only" or how people will go out of their way to mention they only read completed fics 'because they were traumatized when they forgot to check the dates and didn't realize this fic hadn't been updated since 2012'.

The thing is - I think by not engaging with and/or actively avoiding writer's WIPs readers are potentially adding to the aggregate of abandoned works. Now this obviously isn't the case for all abandoned fics, anything from major life events, to loss of interest, to getting busy can be a reason for a fic getting abandoned - but at least on some level I just know that writers are quitting while they're ahead when they aren't garnering any response or feedback because reading WIPs has become unpopular. If you're worried about reading something that hasn't been updated since 2012 then you can use the date updated function to sort out old fics.

Anyways, support your favorite fanfic writers by engaging with their WIPs.

[candyassheroshit]

Ahahaha also how I convince people to watch Daredevil 😆 I know what my people want (because I also want it) and I have to deliver it to them!

Stole the image from this post, because while the original was also a mood, I had to make this for the whump community

did i consume this piece of media or did this piece of media consume me

[candyassheroshit]

I fear it's all over for me ladies (found a new piece of media with characters tailor-made for me to be obsessed with)

[candyassheroshit]

a feel like the new generation of fanfic readers NEED to understand that clicking on a fic (interaction) does nothing. ao3 has no algorithm. your private discord discussions of fic do not reach the authors. if you do not actively engage with writers they will stop posting. this isn’t social media this is community.

yknow, the reason foggy doesnt want matt to be daredevil is less that he disagrees with vigilantes, and more because its dangerous.

its not just that he thinks the law is generally a better way helping people than daredevil (and whether or not thats actually true is largely irrelevant here- its still what foggy thinks). even when he starts seeing the good that vigilantism can do, he still wants matt to give is up, because he doesnt want him to die!

maybe thats selfish of him, but considering that he learned matts identity in the worst possible way by finding him half dead? its also an extremely justified fear. yes, he was angry and hurtful during the nelson v murdock fight, and neither of them were really listening to each other. neither foggy (or matt) were completely "right" there. but foggy was motivated by worry for matt more than anything else.

matt may be willing to give his life for his city, but its another thing to ask foggy to be okay with sacrificing his best friend to something hes not even convinced will help. its not that he hates vigilantes, its that he loves matt.

Matt's little :] to hide the barely contained violence and rage and grief that's vibrating under his skin at a frequency that would register on a richter scale is everything to me actually
