i knew Absolutely Nothing about daredevil when i watched the show first (i didn't even know foggy nelson was a character that existed in the comics) i honest to god thought foggy had gotten flustered when first meeting him -- "a really good looking guy"? SERIOUSLY?
i really hope that they weren't implying foggy's bi/pan and matt's straight, though. i mean, matt murdock really just does not come off as a Strict Heterosexual to me but maybe that's just me being sick of tropes where the "less attractive" character is gay for the "more attractive" straight one.
overall i think you'd have to watch nelson vs murdock with some fairly thick Straight Person Goggles to not get ANY homoerotic vibes off this episode.

Right? I don't know how anyone could watch it without questioning any of their actions or things they were saying or even suspecting them of having a romantic relationship? Like, how much do you have to miss to not see any of that?
ayrt: AGREED. it drives me absolutely bananas when people refer to matt and foggy's relationship as a "bromance" because wow, way to throw the No Homo wrench in that dynamic. like, i'm sorry, but it just isn't a bromance.
i know people who have said that foggy is straight and i'm just like No, I'm Sorry, But You Are Wrong. like SO wrong. i can't even begin on how wrong these people are.
