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!

He had to admit, though, he hadn’t expect it to do so in the form of a not so dead Matthew Murdock. Also known as Daredevil, which was much less of a surprise.

Of all the secrets that came out from him and Karen both when he did, him being alive was the only one that truly blindsided Frank. In fact, on the day most of them came to light, his main worry was how the altar boy was going to react to the whole thing where Karen had killed Fisk’s thug. He got ready to have words with him if he went all “Thou shalt not kill” on her over it. But thankfully, even he had the sense not to go after her for that one.

By the end of that day, also, a few things had become clear to Frank. Such as that Karen’s feelings for him were still exactly as they’d been. Also, she was determined to ignore them, and Murdock was determined to ignore everything, to tell himself she was Frank’s now and that was that. He appreciated the nobility of it all, except for the part where he still couldn’t believe he and Karen were going to last, and that meant her giving up Murdock for him now wasn’t worth it. Especially when once he had a clearer picture of them both, he couldn’t help but note they were kind of suited for each other.

But there wasn’t really time to figure out what to do about that, what with Fisk currently doing his level best to kill all three of them, among others. Which did result in her witnessing just how brutal Frank could get, especially when his quarry had just tried to kill her. Yet she clung as tightly to him as ever afterwards. “I’ve got things to be scared of other than you right now,” she said to him at one point, which was fair enough.

Even after they pretty much broke Fisk, at least for the time being, Frank ended up in a final fight with the whackjob with the bullseye tattoo on his forehead who made one last attempt on Karen. It was with a wild blow that he bashed his skull in, after he himself had so many wounds he was pretty sure he was about to bleed out.

His vision was already starting to go fuzzy when Karen knelt over him, talking frantically with Claire Temple over the burner phone. He tried to reach up to touch her face one last time, but he didn’t have the strength.

After she hung up, she tried to speak to him, but her sobs cut off her words. Frank gathered the strength to speak. “It’s better this way, you know. We wouldn’t have…tell Murdock if he’s not better to you this time around, I’ll come back from the dead.”

“No,” she protested. “You’re not doing this, Frank, that’s not how this is happening!”

He was smiling. At least the last thing he saw would be the face of the last person he’d loved. “I know,” he whispered. “You’ll grieve. It hurts like nobody’s business. But you’ll be okay; you’ll go be with the man you belong with anyway. I love you.” Having said what he needed to, he finally went on into the black.
