This post is for prompts involving characters from Netflix's Daredevil.

Now that The Defenders prompt post is live, all crossovers between anyone in the four individual shows should go over there. Prompts only including characters that appear in Daredevil should still go here.

Rules:

General
1. YKINMKATO. Play nice. Respect others. If you don't like something, scroll on.
2. All comments must be anon. If you would like to be politely banned to avoid anon-failing, leave a logged-in comment on the mod post or pm the mod account.
3. Subject lines should only be changed if you're posting a prompt or a fill (indicators like OP or Author!Anon should go in the body of the comment).
4. RPF is allowed. Crossovers, characters from the extended Marvel Universe and comics canon are allowed, but must relate to the 2015 TV show in some way.
5. Prompts focusing on characters from other Netflix Marvel shows or the comics should go on their respective prompt posts, but crossovers with Daredevil can go here.
6. Drop a comment on the mod post if you have any questions or problems.

Prompts
1. All types of prompts are welcome.
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.
4. Reposted prompts are allowed once one round has passed - e.g. prompts from post #2 cannot be reposted until post #4. Please include a link to where it has been previously posted.

Fills
1. When posting a fill, either add [FILL] (or something similar) to the subject line, or change the subject line to the title of your fill.
2. Announce your fill on either the Completed Fills Post or the WIP Post.
3. Long fills can either be posted over multiple comments, or posted on AO3 and linked back here.
4. Multiple fills are always okay.
5. Fills can be anything! Fic, art and vids are all welcome.

Please post any prompts related to Season 2 of Punisher over on the dedicated Punisher prompt post, and put SPOILERS in the subject line!

Or Matt and Foggy could have been friends before Matt's enslavement, and now they're here on opposite sides (at least in theory) and they don't know. That would make for an interesting reunion.

Yeah, that was my thinking. I don't think they have to be Best Friends (TM), but they could be friends and/or roommates.

I'm also fine with them being semi-friends while Matt's a study aid. That would probably affect Foggy's thinking on slavery though, right?

I think we can think about things and see if there's room for them later, no worries :)

Re: Foggy learns slavery isn't good. I would go one step further and have Karen pull him into her learned way of thinking about how societies should work. We can have them have paralel learning curves: Foggy is learning Slavery Is Not Ok while Karen already knows that, and so is learning that We Should Take Care Of People As A Society. And eventually, their curves cross, and Karen takes Foggy for a ride.

(Could involve fierce speeches and such, I would love that).

I mean, our audience already knows slavery is not okay, even if F doesn't. As a story, we're just catching up with the norm if we stop there. But if we go beyond, then the "moral of the story" becomes (potentially) transformative to the reader.

(I'm bored on the bus and this scene came to mind, but we can totally scrap it!)

"Matt!"

He doesn't stop; he can't.

"Matt, buddy, come on——" Foggy is relentless.

"Don't do this," Matt tells him tiredly. He keeps his face down, gaze (hopefully) on the floor—he misses his glasses. "I can't—" He breathes. "It’s not like before." He carefully avoids saying Foggy, but he can’t bring himself to call him sir, either.

"It doesn't have to change, Matt—"

"It already has." Matt keeps going, ignoring every instinct that tells him to stay there. Slaves don't have friends.

Sooner or later, Foggy would have left him anyway.

Oh, God, this is painful. Foggy would definitely do something like that. And Matt would do _this,_ too.

I think I want that backstory now :)

I'm glad you like it! Matt+Foggy angst is just so tempting.

Alright, I'm gonna try to answer everything I've missed now; I edited all the previous fills incorporating the changes we made (the first one has the most substantial changes; I added "Mr Wesley" and swapped Juana with Lillian), I'll post it later since we don't have a shared document yet.

Read it if/when you have time, it doesn't add much, and also we can still edit and change it later of course. But I guess I felt inspired!

Btw, YES to Karen taking Foggy for a ride.

Seeing that he witnesses Matt, his friend, being enslaved, he probably resents slavery already, but I think he'd tend to see it a bit like an exception? Like, "The system clearly did Matt wrong, and maybe/probably wrongs other people too, but it's overall okay, bad criminals deserve it." Foggy gives me this impression, anyway—he cares when it gets personal.

So Karen could show him that no, actually, slavery fixes exactly nothing and only serves rich people who profit off it. (And everything else.)
