    Summary

    Matt Murdock gets adopted at fourteen by Clint and Laura Barton, who say they’re retired, but are definitely hiding something. Well, Matt is too. But now his life is changing in ways he’s never allowed himself to imagine, as since his dad died and Stick left, he knew he’d be alone forever, untrusting and wary of everyone.

    But this couple seems insistent on giving him so much care and consideration, he thinks, maybe he doesn’t have to be alone after all. And if he just lets these two people in, well, maybe he’ll find more family than he thought possible, even if they are the farthest thing from normal one could get.

    Summary

    Fics & ficlets I’ve had running through my head and want to put out in the ether. Mostly Matt whump with a little silliness down the road (esp as I drift more into Avengers crossovers).

    Mostly stand-alone, though others in the series can add context for character interactions as that builds. But think of it more as snapshots over time instead of a continuous narrative.

    Current theory is that it's how I process my own sensitive senses and chronic pain. But I'm at the point I keep cycling these in my head, re-editing them, and it's becoming a problem for focus and sleep. I'm hoping that getting them out of my head will help me stop #@!&ing thinking about them finally.

    I feel like I’ve read just about every DD fanfic on this site at this point, and I'm sometimes unsure if my ideas are actually original versus just an amalgamation of all I’ve read Frankensteined together. To that effect, if you notice something is super similar to something else you've read, then my brain probably looped it in to my own story, so please let me know in the comments so I can take a look to see if I remember it, then credit it under 'remix/inspired by' accordingly.

    Summary

    There's a fine line between pushing your limits and breaking them. Matt crosses it on a cold Hell's Kitchen pier, and the fall into the Hudson is just the beginning. As hypothermia sets in, salvation comes from a lucky, and equally exhausted, source.

    Summary

    When the Avengers raid a HYDRA lab in Hell's Kitchen, they call in the one man who knows the neighborhood: Daredevil. The mission goes catastrophically wrong, exposing Matt to a meticulously engineered bioweapon. To save him, his new allies must bridge the gap between cutting-edge technology and the brutal reality of biological warfare.

    [Can be read stand-alone; relevant context in the tags] --> prior fics for characterization & interaction context, though I try to add internal clarification whenever possible
