It's a routine mugging, until it isn't. The perp swings at him, misses, and then pulls out a fucking taser. It hurts just as much as the one in the car park did, except this time he falls on broken glass instead of cement. The world goes hazy for a while.

There are fingers on the collar of his suit. The woman. Matt frowns, trying to focus. The woman…

"Are you…okay?" he mumbles.

A light laugh from somewhere across the universe. "I think I should be asking you that."

The pain ebbs out to the ocean in waves. Matt inhales sharply and focuses. Not very tall, this woman, and her hair makes a sound of feathers when it brushes against her coat lapels. The hand currently pressed against his cheek is soft, rough, and warm. Her other hand, weirdly, is holding something like a–

"Is that a, a lamp?" he asks.

Another laugh. "Yes."

"Is the mugger gone?"

"Yes."

"I didn't get him."

"No."

Her heart is strong, steady, like the pulse of the sun. He wants to lie here, listening to it. "You chased him off, or did he run?"

"Both." He can hear the smile in her voice. It's a Claire smile, warm and rueful.

"Who are you?"

"Lucia," she says. "And you're Matthew Murdock."

He panics. "That's–completely untrue, you know Matthew Murdock is blind, and obviously I'm not–"

She sighs. "Matthew. Breathe."

He sucks in a breath. It doesn't help. This woman still kneels over him, smelling like salt and sunlight, her hair just tickling his face. She shouldn't know. She didn't take off his mask.

"It's time you went home, I think," she says, taking his hands in hers.

He lets her pull him to his feet. She's not very tall. Just a little thing. She picks the lamp back up and holds it aloft.

"This is a metaphor," she tells him. "Not everything needs physical illumination. Sometimes the heart is enough."

"Wha–" he reaches out, but his fingers meet empty space. He is the only person in this alleyway.

/I'm here when you need me, Matthew,/ his dreams tell him that night. They're full of lamps, and Italy, and palm fronds waving at the sky.

This is amazing.

Thanks! I was worried it would be too bizarre, but I'm glad you liked it!

I love things about the saints, and you captured Santa Lucia's warmth wonderfully. This was such a calming, lovely fic. Absolutely beautiful.

Aw, thanks. That's what I was going for. I think Matt/happiness is my only OTP in this series, lol.

Ah, yes, the good ship Matt/Happiness. Also my only OTP.

YES beautiful, A!A.

Oh, this is lovely and delightful. Well done.

Thanks! It was a lovely and delightful prompt.

This is beautiful!

Thanks! :)

OP here. This is amazing! Short and sweet and not at all what I was expecting! I ADORE IT.

I'm glad you liked it! It was a fantastic prompt.

This was so, so great. That boy could do with a saint looking out for him.

Thanks! I enjoyed writing it.

Oh God, right??? I actually have some issues with Marvel's weirdly cruel cosmology, so I just blatantly threw it out here, lol. There need to be more stories about Matt's slightly-terrified view on his faith being gently contradicted.

This was rather beautiful and just the right amount of surreal.
