defenders details asks

danny rand’s love language ultimately comes down to acts of service. it’s consistently shown through his and colleen’s relationship, mostly in the second season. BUTTT here are a few examples throughout the show that immediately come to mind:

- he offers to cover her rent for a little while. though it was first used as a way to gain enough of her trust to let him temporarily live with her — he purchased her building, telling her to not worry about rent.

- when colleen is poisoned, he does, in fact, both save her life and threaten gao’s (“if she dies, you die.”)

- despite spending the entire night out on the streets as the iron fist (and having a few little injures), he brings her dinner from what is implied to be her favourite takeout place.

- even while bickering with her, he still nonchalantly makes her tea in the mornings.

- he cut off a piece of his skin and gave her the iron fist, what once was his whole world. (he also stayed by her side the entire time she got the tattoo and very gently laid her down while she was unconscious).

- and finally, even as he was leaving her, he still cleaned up and restored their once demolished apartment so she would have somewhere safe to go after the fight with davos.

physical touch is obviously up there on his love languages, but i think his acts of service — specifically for colleen — are constantly overlooked and something i wished people talked about more. i wish we talked about ironwing more tbh.

unfortunately the hardest part about writing is understanding you don’t have to re-invent the wheel.

headcanon ask :: karen page

surprisingly good artist. it’s already partially canon, anyway. in season 1 during the auction when she began sketching out side profiles (which are incredibly hard to do when you have the proper set up— nevermind in a dark room undercover).

when karen first moved to new york, when she was still employed at union allied, she joined an art class. it was nothing major, it was run in the back of a locally owned art store and ran every tuesday night. art was never her passion, per se. she took a few classes in high school and got decent enough grades. art history interested her more, but that’s a different discussion. she joined the class as a way to connect with and meet people in the city. obviously, it didn’t really work out in the end. she’d chat with some of the older women there, but that was really it. in the end, she didn’t hate the class itself and walked away with a few partially functional pottery pieces, which she considered a win.

she didn’t sign up for any other classes moving forward (mostly because of the cost), though she continued to sketch and pick up other little crafts if and when inspiration struck. and even then, it was hit or miss. her busy schedule often prevents her from doing anything when she wants to. however, there’s probably sticky notes of her doodles scattered around nelson, murdock, and page. every so often, they get mixed in with files and she’ll get all sheepish whenever foggy fawns over them. always, she insist that, really, she’s not that great (like any true artist).

headcanon ask :: danny rand

music collector. it’s already been established (vaguely?) in interviews that he has a small record collection. another way for him to catch up on all of the culture/media he missed out on. he prefers collecting records, though he probably has a few CDs and cassettes kicking around. after all, he grew up in a time when CDs were the main source of music.

when it comes to records, he probably prefers buying used/second hand records. there’s something special about owning a record that once was played by someone else. the way there will be the odd scratch on the vinyl or natural damage/bends in the corners of the cases are just proof that they have been loved (to him, at least). there’s also a connection piece to it— music brings people together, everyone knows that. but it’s the fact that he is spinning the same record someone once loved so dearly that really drives it home for danny.

anytime he’s out and passes by a record store or some sort of garage sale, danny will pop his head in just to check out what they have. nine times out of ten, he always walks away with something new for his collection. sometimes it’s a recommendation from an employee, other times it’s just an album that had a cool cover. either way, he’s listening to it the moment he’s free.

danny doesn’t just by second hand records, though. as much as he loves them, he definitely splurges every now and then on record store day releases.

headcanon ask :: foggy nelson

abba enthusiast. even as an adult he still really does enjoy their music. he knows most (if not all) of the lyrics to their songs and will never shy away from dancing to them. absolutely has gotten emotional to slipping through my fingers at least once in his life (he’s a former theatre kid and that’s a very theatre kid thing to do).

i think what really fuels the enthusiasm for them is nostalgia, though. i feel his mom, in particular, really enjoyed their music and would play it all of the time around the house. he has distinct memories of the two of them in the kitchen, cooking or baking in the afternoon of a summer day. his mom absolutely taught him most of his cooking skills— but that’s a different conversation. i always imagined the nelson family as one of those families that are super close. like, physically and emotionally. extended families are always in the house, either spending the weekend or just hanging out. they’re loud and chaotic but overall so, so welcoming and loving (ie. the tribbiani family in friends, the portokalos family in my big fat greek wedding). those sorts of families are wonderful, but it’s hard to steal moments with just one person. so, i think he really does appreciate their music because it reminds him of his mom (and family overall).

give me a netflix defenders character / ship and i will give you one (1) long winded headcanon i have for them

[cyberspqced]

AS OF RIGHT NOW .. no. if you count frank there’s approximately one (1) + a mention of bakuto through colleen’s storyline. they didn’t cross my mind tbh simply because i was very focused on the superhero found family as i was working on it

HOWEVERRR i am so open to exploring all of the villains and how they’d look in the high school setting. especially because there is a lot of potential and guys like billy russo would be so fun to write tbh.

the hard part would be determining what they represent, yk? like fisk could either be a guy a couple years older than them or the business teacher that’s twice their age that they have beef with 💀💀

netflix’s defenders high school AU is coming so soon you guys 👁️ it’s more or less a breakdown of every possible dynamic / pairing in a high school setting but if enough people like it i’d be so game to specifically write fics while referencing lore.

i’ll say right now that matt foggy and karen DID become friends in a way similar to how they did in daredevil .. just without the dead man. i’ll also say underrated friendships like colleen and claire + colleen and jess have a lot of coverage because this fandom doesn’t talk about them enough. ironwing is also very canon ANDNANDAND kastle slowburn + frank and amy do in fact meet and maintain a similar bond:)

okay that’s all i’ll say for now. if you have any requests for duos you’d maybe wanna see featured, requests are so open.
