Fills from all posts: Completed & WIPs

Defenders-only Discussion Post

This post is for prompts involving everyone in Netflix's The Defenders! Crossovers between anyone in the four individual shows should go here. Prompts only including characters from one show should still go on the relevant show prompt post.


Rules:

• General
  
  1. YKINMKATO. Play nice. 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 2017 TV show in some way.
  
  
  5. 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.


• Fills
  
  1. Put [FILL] or something similar in the subject line when posting a 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!

Re: Gen or Matt/Jessica, Jess tells off Foggy and Karen

[(Anonymous)]

A lot of the issues people have with Karen's behavior in The Defenders would have been cleared up if we had gotten a flashback to Matt revealing his secret to Karen so we could see exactly what was said in the reveal conversation (hopefully Daredevil season 3 will backtrack a bit to show us that, since there's no way it could be incorporated here without bogging down the start of The Defenders).

And Karen and Foggy didn't get much room to grow and kinda got pushed to the side, in part because of timing and scheduling issues. The Defenders was only eight episodes; the writers had a huge cast of leads and supporting characters to work with and wanted to keep it mostly about Matt, Jessica, Luke, and Danny coming together to solve a problem. Unfortunately, that just didn't leave a lot of time for the supporting characters to really make a difference in the plot, with rare exceptions like Colleen and Misty. In Karen's case, Deborah Ann Woll was also filming The Punisher at the same time as The Defenders, so her schedule may have been busy and not allowed for Karen to get a larger role.
