#mattelektravday  |  day 3  |  love you

it is true that somewhere, a woman named elektra is still alive…and a man named matthew murdock is happy. but i speak of probability, not fantasy.

For appreciation day, I just wanted to thank Charlie Cox and Elodie Yung for their amazing performances.  From the instant I saw Matt in the confessional booth, I was enthralled by Charlie Cox’s acting, and I had the same reaction to Elodie’s Yung’s acting when Elektra showed up at Matt’s apartment.  Both actors should be very proud that all of their hard work has made the characters of Matthew Murdock and Elektra Natchios into believably real people on screen with a beautiful connection between them.  I hope we see much more of them in the future, both individually and together!

Mattelektra V-Day Week: [1/7] Ludus

I am glad it cannot happen twice, the fever of first love. For it is a fever, and a burden, too, whatever the poets may say.

                         -Daphne du Maurier

[Caption: gifs from Daredevil. The show the first moments when Matt met Elektra how he sensed across a room. The camera focuses on the sound of her gold bracelets hitting against each other; the breath coming out of her mouth; her finger circling the top of her martini glass and how she took it to her lips and drank it. All the while Matt walks closer to her, and the camera closes on Elektra’s eyes as she looks back to him.]

I didn’t mean to make anyone sad, I swear.  The lyrics are from Hana No Uta (A flower’s song) by Aimer.

I absolutely recommend it, if you haven’t heard it. It fits these two perfectly.

where did you go, elektra?

“You don’t understand. When I woke up, I reached out for you, and you weren’t there.”

“Because they took you from me!”

“Nope, I’m not buying, sweetheart.  It’s irrelevant, anyway.  The only certainty in life is death, and I’m more than happy to deliver it.”

“That’s not true.  I know there is good in you, Matthew.  I know because I felt it.”

Mattelektra V-Day Week: [8/8] Free Choice - Favourite quote

I had only a few moments with her... amidst all the... noise, chaos, and the violence. We were together only for moments. That was all. Orchids. She likes orchids. And, yeah, Stick... it was worth it.

[Caption: images meant to invoke an aesthetic for Matt and Elektra in Daredevil. The graphic shows, on top, an image of Matt and Stick, from their backs, standing in front of Elektra’s grave in the snow; on the bottom, there’s a dark image of red orchids.]
