(A!anon) I'm so glad you like these parts! I had a tough time figuring out how Foggy would get Karen off his case since she is can be so ruthless if she's curious and I'd feel so bad leaving her hanging. Matt feelings on contact are complicated, and I do want to spend some time on that later. In this story, I think Foggy has a marginally higher tolerance for weird BS being thrown his way than in the TV series and he hasn't known Matt for as long, so I couldn't see this coming off as emotionally charged as it was originally. He still felt a betrayed, but being able to process it a bit clearer certainly helped.

thank you for commenting!
