  2. Use the subject line for the main idea of your prompt (pairing or characters, keywords, kink).
  
  
  3. Warnings are nice, but not mandatory. Get DW Blocker if there's anything you really don't want to see.

It's probably a tag on Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, etc.

(And as a side note, many homeless people still hold onto technology like laptops and smartphones for a variety of reasons, and of course prostitutes and small-time criminals would have smartphones, too.)

It's probably something like #DaredevilSavedMe or something.

Homeless people talking about how Daredevil saved them from some drunk college kids trying to abuse them or harass them for being homeless. Daredevil seems to have especially low patience for the kind that target disabled ones. No one ever notices a homeless person, especially criminals, and they can keep Daredevil in the know at all times.

Sex workers talking about how Daredevil helped when no one else would because of this bullshit idea that sex workers can't be raped, and doesn't even expect 'reward' sex for it. People think sex-workers are idiots and spill all sorts of secrets to them, which they let Daredevil know about.

A pick-pocket who describe how terrifying being chased by this guy was, only for Daredevil to get him some food after making them return what they stole. How this guy knew he was hungry, he will never know, but the restaurant hired him and now he's on the right track again. He keeps an eye on the street, and occasionally helps stop any other budding criminal tendencies before they can stop in other small-time criminals Daredevil sends his way.

Maybe even a cop who posts anonymously, talking about how they don't like hunting Daredevil and very few people on the force do, because he's doing what they wish they could do. They're on the front lines, and they've seen the law fail people so many times that on the inside, they're rooting for this guy. (And maybe, just maybe, this cop finds the blogs of one of the above and leaves some tips for them to get back to Daredevil, just in case, because risking their badge is nothing against saving people's lives when the police no longer can.)

As far as these people are concerned, #DaredevilSavedMe, and now they're saving him back.

Nice :)

"And as a side note, many homeless people still hold onto technology like laptops and smartphones for a variety of reasons, and of course prostitutes and small-time criminals would have smartphones, too."

Thanks for pointing that out. Admittedly, I only have my own assumptions on this topic. But I didn't mean that they couldn't use technology, just that they wouldn't.

Posting something in internet is contacting a bunch of anonymous people, that maight as well be stationed in Niguria, and therefore useless. They might also be someone you don't actually want to contact with this kind of information, like a criminal or a cop - and I don't think these people have a lot of trust in strangers, or the system, or the protection of info shared over the internet, even in private conversations. All of those pages are DEFINITELY reguraly checked by the mob, the police, the goverment... (aliens...)

On the other hand, these people are probably "street wise", they know where to find others of their kind in the district, they know who to trust and who to avoid, and unlike soccer moms from suburbia, they CAN form a network of info-trading, tight-knit and hard to get into, invisible to a naked eye group of people that are equal in courage and hard-learned self-preservation: happy to help but also happy to turn tail and let the Devil do his work.
Which suits the Devil just fine.


(Which, by the way, does in no way exlude #daredevilsavedme tag, and all the pages and posts you wrote about. But I do in fact expect more soccer moms and doctors and lawyers and respectable citizens there than prostitutes and homeless.)


Also, I'm sure there are WILD stories there - and I bet some are put for the sole purpose of confusing things, probably by the aforementioned homeless:

"He flew between streets in something that looked like a small jumbo-jet, and then he and his sidekick jumped out. They kicked and kicked until there was no one else standing but them, and then they made a ceremonial bow, and Daredevil said thank you to Buddha for supporting him in fight."

PLEASE tell me Foggy follows that tag (even post s2)! He probably is more than happy to read out the more...creative posts to Matt (and he's probably contributed more than one crack post).
