Something about how Chris immediately clocked that Brax is a cat person than a dog person, and then Brax being the first person to spot the cat in the middle of the road, telling Chris to stop.

Anyway, the cat being an orange tabby is too much of a coincidence in my opinion because what if that's Matt?

*In a different universe Frank has an orange tabby named Matt who he calls his little devil/demon as an affectionate nickname.

(Following ddba s1e4)

The bench is in a rundown neighborhood, not far from Hell's Kitchen.

Frank stumbled upon it by chance.

The advertisement on the bench is old, heavily worn, and outdated.

It is printed with the phone number and address of their first law firm—the number is now disconnected, and the address is no longer their office.

Murdock has a new business partner now, renting a spacious, bright office in a trendy downtown district.

Nelson has been gone for years.

Frank likes this bench.

Sometimes he comes here to sit for a while.

There’s no scenery to speak of—the only view is the confident smile of the young Murdock on the ad, looking every bit like a bastard lawyer. And that slogan. What a smug, arrogant prick.

It stirs something in him, something like nostalgia.

Sometimes Frank comes here. He doesn’t know if anyone will ever remember to remove this ad. He hopes that day comes later. It’s one of the few wishes he has left.

But even if he’s disappointed, he can accept it.

Frank keeps occasional tabs on Murdock. He knows he’s still working as a defense attorney, has friends to drink with, a steady dating life, no longer patrolling the streets in his pajama at night, staying far away from politics.

Good.

Away from these power struggles, away from tragedies he can’t save.

Blind in the eyes, deaf in the ears.

Murdock would rather let guilt and remorse consume his heart and soul than gamble on his anger being kept in check by reason.

Frank understands.

Because he’s the same.

Yesterday, Murdock came to Frank’s place to see him.

After all these years, he finally allowed himself to be honest about his feelings.

Maybe for people who have to maintain their social identity, protecting their image in the eyes of others is more important than facing themselves honestly.

Frank despises that kind of hypocrisy.

But he can understand it.

Yet, in what identity did Murdock come? And which version of Frank was he looking for?

Frank doesn’t know.

He doesn’t care.

Murdock could no longer bear the pain and disgust of living a lie—he needed a safe place to let it all out.

That’s all Frank needed to know.

Facing his fury and vulnerability, Frank felt the same anger, sorrow, confusion, and helplessness.

What do you want from me? Who are you?

Consoler Murdock, the defense attorney who once represented felon Frank Castle?

Daredevil, the Punisher’s longtime nemesis on his job?

Red, the ally Frank Castle could trust when he was the Punisher?

Or Matthew Murdock, who’s lost too much and is now searching for answers in Pete Castiglione, another man with nothing left?

Frank doesn’t know.

The funny thing is, Murdock’s the one who can detect lies through heartbeat or some ninja trick, yet Frank’s always been the one to strip away all his disguises—and once again, reopen his wounds.

Frank missed the moment to give him an understanding embrace, no matter which identity it was for.

He no longer has any excuse to offer this misplaced comfort under any grand pretense.

That’s why Frank is sitting here now.

He doesn’t know in what capacity he could ever step back into his life.

Until Frank gets a call. From Karen.

The woman he wanted to protect is now asking him to help the man he also wanted to protect.

He can do it—as the Punisher.

As for which version of Murdock he’s dealing with, he doesn’t care.

He’ll do what he can.

Somehow it comes up that Wade (who’s obviously read all the fics) is fully convinced Logan is attracted to him through smell alone, because like, how could it be anything else? He’s hideous, he’s mentally unwell, he’s not the smartest, and while he is funny he knows even that can only take him so far; plus like, how often does Logan actually laugh at all of his jokes anyway?

And Logan is genuinely floored because like, yeah his sense of smell is better than most mutants, but really? Smell based attraction? People call him one all the time but he’s not ACTUALLY an animal. Plus Wade smells like cancer. He grows to like it because it’s Wade, but it’s not exactly love at first sniff or whatever Wade is claiming. So he has to sit Wade down and explain to him that he actually IS attracted to Wade based on many things besides his looks. He’s hilarious, he’s kind in all the ways that matter, he’s unbelievably loyal, he so competent as a mercenary it makes Logan tingly on jobs, he looks like a god damn sex doll in the Deadpool suit, and outside of the suit he’s truly one of the most beautiful people he’s ever seen because of all that and so much more. His eyes, his smile, the way he takes care of Mary Puppins and Al, and by the time Logan is done with his very long and detailed list Wade is crying

I have broken out of horny jail to tell you that Logan would go absolutely feral over Wade in feminine clothing, especially heels and panties.

I can absolutely see it. Put him on a stripper pole and your cooking with grease
