Re: Matt gets some Frank love

[(Anonymous)]

I could be wrong but I am reading your questions as rather hostile. In my prompt I would like it acknowledged that Matt has made some mistakes - the same as his friends and that Foggy kept threatening to withdraw his friendship (to someone like Matt that would be devastating). The threat was made enough times that Matt finally let him go - calling Foggy's bluff.

I would like the focus on Matt suffering after Elektra dies. You know, grief, which anyone would feel after a loved one dies. Whether Foggy and Karen know but still want to see Matt suffer (which I highly doubt) is up to the person filling if (if anyone does). It's more likely that his friends don't make the connection. If Frank then runs into issues where Matt doesn't want to make any more connections because of fear of rejection that is fine.

If you don't like the prompt feel free to ignore. Thank you ;-)

Re: Matt/Deadpool, DP bottoms

Meanwhile half a city away DP wanking off to the same fantasy, with a big lurid pink dildo stuck up his ass

We're all killers here, Gen or Frank/Matt, self-righteous Avengers getting called out

[(Anonymous)]

There are so many stories of the Avengers (and others) hating the Punisher for daring to kill people and confronting him about it, being all righteous and "We're the good guys, you filthy scum!". You can see that however you like, but the fact of the matter is: almost every single Avenger has killed people before, some even onscreen and very callously.

- There is no way Clint was never sent out on assassination missions, same with Natasha (who also killed many people before defecting). They are their best agents, and even a non-HYDRAfied SHIELD would have sent them to kill so. many. people.
- Thor regularly smites (and smashes and fries) the enemies of Asgard, can you really say he never killed one of his human foes? And do non-humans just not count? So we can't count the Jötnar, because they're "big blue monsters"?
- Banner can't control the Hulk at all, how come not a single soldier or innocent bystander died in one of his rampages (maybe even while he was on the run)? All the smashed buildings could have easily killed a few people.
- Steve regularly killed people in the war. There were explosions everywhere and you can't convince me that having a supersoldier smash a giant, reinforced hunk of metal into your face doesn't end in at least one person getting their skull pulverised. Even if you don't count that, he vehemently defends Bucky, who was an assassin for decades and even before that definitely put bullets into many peoples heads.
- Tony has very callously and obviously killed people onscreen, making witty remarks all the while. Just remember his getting out of that cave and his first Iron Man mission. And don't get me started on Ultron.

You see where the trend is going? And all of them had the same mindset: This is an enemy/terrorist/criminal! I'm doing what's right! They were hurting innocent people, they deserve it!

It sounds very, very familiar, because that is exactly the Punishers motivation. Yet they hate what he does, why? Because he's not government-sanctioned? Because he uses guns? He's too effective? They just don't like his logo?

I'd love to see a situation where a few or all of the Avengers very obviously confront Frank about his murdering ways, maybe telling him "his sob story doesn't justify this" or something similar, and then someone just snaps and tells them to stop with the BS, it's not like they're any better. Let that somebody really lay into them, not necessarily because they agree with Punishers methods, but because they hate the hipocrisy and holier-than-thou attitude.


I would love if that person was Matt, who definitely isn't cool with Punishers methods, but I get the feeling he would pick him over the insensitive and hypocritical Avengers any day (since he is also very not cool with the way they handled the aftermath of the NY Battle).


Bonus points if somebody unexpected backs him up. Random Hells Kitchen residents? The waitress from Franks favourite Diner? Karen?
Maybe have one person defend the Punisher because they think he's doing the right thing, to counterpoint Matt hating Franks methods, but hating the Avengers attitudes more.


Virtual cookies if Frank has a WTF? reaction, because he never thought Daredevil of all people would be on his side, and the random other people defending him just makes him go "what the hell is wrong with you all?". I could see him being very stoic when confronted by the Avengers, only to crack slightly when he gets help from an unexpected corner.


All my love if you somehow manage to turn this into Frank/Matt (or just them getting a friendship out of it), because the situation makes them rethink their stances a bit and learn more about each other?


Specific prompt is oh so specific, feel free to pick any of this or throw it around however you want :)

Re: We're all killers here, Gen or Frank/Matt, self-righteous Avengers getting called out

[(Anonymous)]

General Ross - who admittedly may not be the least biased source - explicitly says the hulk is responsible for at least 5 or 6 deaths at the BEGINNING of the Incredible Hulk (2008) movie, which is technically MCU canon despite featuring Edward Norton, and that's before he rampages through a couple of metro areas.

In fairness to Bruce, though, he is generally pretty fucked up about that.

Avengers think Daredevil is *not human* - Frank is pissed

[(Anonymous)]

There have been a whole lot of prompts along the lines of the Avengers adding up Daredevil's personality quirks/limitations and coming up with wild theories to explain. (My favorite is them thinking he's a robot/AI)

The prompt is this, The Avengers have long since decided that DD is something not human (what that is, is up to author) and treat him as such. Not badly, but they don't bother asking if he's hurt, or needs help getting back home, etc.

Queue another 'all hands on deck' incident like the Chitauri invasion and Frank pitches in to help, the Avengers don't like working with him so they partner him up with Daredevil because a [robot/demon/vampire/whatever] and won't get hurt if The Punisher gets out of control (or whatever other dismissive thing they think about Frank).

Frank, being post s2 and knowing who Matt is is pissed. That's just straight up bad leadership, not understanding your teammate's weaknesses and limitations. And if he's worried about how many times has Matt's been hurt and the Avengers not even noticed he'll be sure to bring that up in private later.

Does he rip into the Avengers right there? Does he not say anything but Matt read his reaction and ask about it later?


+ Frank/Matt either established or well into ust
++ Daredevil finding the whole thing funny
+++ Frank only agreeing to not telling the Avengers the truth if Matt swears he'll call and check in ever time he works with them.

(I just spent the last week reading through all the previous prompts and now can't find any of the prompts that inspired this, fml)

(frozen comment) Re: Gen, long aftermath fic - recovering under the Punisher's care

[ddk_mod]

That bonus definitely falls under the heading of bashing other people's ships, so, no.

Next time, try asking for 'gen only, please', and maybe we can avoid all the wank.

Re: Stick/Everyone: Stick actually has game

[(Anonymous)]

I like how you think. Ha. Definitely Stick would rock all the scenarios and then when it's all said and done he's back to being his same old self.

Matt/Karen, she's more his type than he thought

[(Anonymous)]

Influenced by above: Matt may have initially been drawn to Karen when he believed her to be a brave but mostly innocent good-hearted girl. But he only really falls head over heels in love with her when he learns about all the things she's done these last two seasons she hadn't told him and Foggy about, as well as possibly some equally brave and arguably heroic but also kind of crazy things she also did before or after that.
Not that this necessarily makes things any easier between them, though I'd like a happy ending.

Slavery AU: Matt is not against slavery

[(Anonymous)]

So an AU where slavery is a common punishment for crimes. Its not the first punishment but enslavemebt is hardly surprising. It's rare anyone is a life long slave or from childhood. So when Matt puts on the cowl he knows very well a lot of his victims are probably going to end up in chains, especially repeat offenders. People like Frank and Fisk are deemed too risky/dangerous for it and incarcerated.

Which is why he is more passionate about helping the innocent.

TLDR: in s slave AU Matt sees slavery as a just punishment for crimes. It makes him more passionate fit saving innocents.

Re: We're all killers here, Gen or Frank/Matt, self-righteous Avengers getting called out

[(Anonymous)]

Thank you, I forgot about that :) While I really wouldn't call Ross a good witness, I'm inclined to believe that at least people got hurt a lot.

True, Bruce is very far on the "I messed up" list, but I doubt he would condone anything the Punisher does, anyway.

I didn't really say it in the prompt (it was long enough already), but I also see the Avengers on a sliding scale of self-righteousness.
For example, Bruce knows he has done wrong, but he may still think his being regretful about it makes him a better person than Frank.
Steve is very much the Good Guy, so he'd hate Frank because of his methods, but I also think he'd be a bit too naive (in my mothertongue you say "blue-eyed") to realise that he isn't much better just because his kills were enemy soldiers.
And Tony is in my opinion almost callous about killing people, what with his obviously deadly weaponry and his quips and witty one-liners. On the other hand, he also thinks he can get out of trouble by throwing money at it, so I'd see him very high on the hipocrisy scale.

That's all just my interpretation, though, I'm sure somebody else sees them completely different :)

Re: Matt gets some Frank love

[(Anonymous)]

I was actually thinking of doing a fill, but if you're not open to that direction, that's fine. C'est la vie.

I'm sure you will find something you like to fill.

Matt & Melvin - Daredevil wears black sclera contact lenses

[(Anonymous)]

Basically everything is the same except instead of the mask that covers the top half of his face completely he wears something that covers most of his face but leaves his eyes visible with black sclera lenses in.

Melvin suggests the full face mask to help prevent visible bruising and the lenses because they fit thematically to the costume and look amazing to hide his blindness since they make it difficult to see where your eyes are focusing.

+++++++++ Melvin's day job is making custom cosplay gear and accessories

(It's in japanese but has subtitles and he makes a point to show what they look like when looking around with them)

Off-Prompt Fills: Literally anything

Have a fic that was inspired by a prompt here but doesn't quite fill it? Post it as a reply here!

You can mention/link to the prompt it was inspired by or not, it's up to you. As a courtesy, please put any pairings, kinks or relevant warnings in the subject line.

Re: Frank + Matt, slavery AU, canon divergence

[(Anonymous)]

Hey OP! I've got the beginning of a thing written and I'm not 100% sure where I'm going with it. Can you talk a little more about what emotional aspects of the prompt most appeal to you? The dehumanizing/trauma, the comfort side of hurt/comfort and recovery, matt feeling awkward and guilt guilty and clueless, other? Also since you used a + instead of / I'm assuming you want it non-shippy, yes? Are there other pairings you definitely would or wouldn't prefer to see? Obviously the focus will stay on Frank and Matt, I'm just trying to figure out details.

Re: Matt/Deadpool, DP bottoms

[(Anonymous)]

Or maybe threesome with Matt &Frank? Deadpool's mind is crazy like that.

Re: Matt/Deadpool, DP bottoms

[(Anonymous)]

But how would Matt have a vivid dream?
With the visual (and that could be riddiculous, cause he's never seen DP) or without, just sound, smell, taste and touch?
How does screwing DP feel?

Re: Matt/Deadpool, DP bottoms

[(Anonymous)]

Well the blind still dream. Matt would know what he looks like but he could still draw from Gus experience around DP and with fucking in general.

Re: Frank + Matt, slavery AU, canon divergence

[(Anonymous)]

Hey, OP here!

Basically, I love me some horror of slavery AUs as well as a focus on hurt/comfort, and Matt's awkward cluelessness colliding with his generally compassionate and kind self. Like, he's both very kind and deeply wants to help people but is floundering in this specific situation.

I'm fine with eventual Frank/Matt ship, I mostly put the + to avoid noncon and/or to leave open the gen possibility. I would prefer no Foggy/Matt or Frank/Karen (or Matt with anyone other than Claire and/or Frank) if that's alright.

Re: Matt/Deadpool, DP bottoms

[(Anonymous)]

DP is for double penetration!

Re: Matt/Deadpool, DP bottoms

[(Anonymous)]

DP getting DP'd by DP and DP. (Deadpool getting double-penetrated by Deadpool and Deadpool)

Re: Matt/Karen, she's more his type than he thought

[(Anonymous)]

Ooh. +1

We see Matt does worry about Karen's safety but he already has admiration for those hints of that part of Karen that he's seen. The more he knows about Karen, the more I imagine both those aspects would grow - he'll be terrified over her getting hurt (ha, now he knows how Foggy feels) but I could so see him falling utterly in love with her for her courage and conviction and heroism. And, too, her recklessness and stubbornness. And I feel like Matt would understand any mistakes she'd made along the way.

Would this make things easier between them? Nope, probably not. They already have that rift in morality we sort of saw already. Then there's the fact that Matt falling in love doesn't in any way undo or change everything he burnt down between them during Frank's case. And what does Karen even think of Matt in return?

I can definitely imagine the same thing going on on Karen's side, too.

Somewhere in the background, Foggy is crying over the insanity that is these two disastrous human beings.

[(Anonymous)]

I think wolverine is the only one who actually respects The Punisher, and he helped Cole escape in war zone series three.

I like your prompt.

Re: We're all killers here, Gen or Frank/Matt, self-righteous Avengers getting called out

[(Anonymous)]

Sometimes the avengers are also so aggravating. Nick Fury was practically the only own willing to use punisher to do his dirty work for him. I'm talking about Aaron and Ennis run. Not the avengers confidential movie. Even when captain America smacked Frank around he refused to hit back (war journal series 2). Sometimes these Herod are hypocrites, and deep down inside they're anti-heroes. Hell, Frank is the poster child for anti-heroism. Then you got wolverine, Deadpool, Ghost Rider, Batman, And Red Hood just to name a few.

Forgot to include that. I really hope someone fulfills this prompt.

That's exactly what I wanted to know, thanks!
