[ Yeah, Matt's not worried at all. While it's difficult to forget the way they did more than kiss they shared, he's not looking to step on anybody's toes. As of late, the egg situation he brought them into was already asking a lot. ]
Missed opportunity indeed. I'm no authority on it, but I'm glad you see the light.
[ Worse are the pains Matt has had to take to not be a voyeur in general, given his heightened senses. Nowadays it’s obviously much less of a problem, as over the years he’s gotten better at concentration. Selective hearing, of course, being a skill all its own. ]
We’re really milking this bit, aren’t we?
No signs of stopping. Not till the cows come home.
Jesus Christ, DD. Apparently they didn't teach you tact in law school!
[ POOR GUY. He's not a joke to her, but – there are times she does pity him. It's a rough gig. But... he is a sweetheart, most of the time. Except when he gets weird and has big life crisis going on. ]
I'm about to mooove this conversation to the deleted folder on my phone.
Trust me, that’s just not in the curriculum in general.
[ First a blind joke, now a lawyer one. At least Matt can’t be faulted for taking himself too seriously, like he might have in his early days. Now he’s just milking pity as part of his ‘wounded gazelle’ act— an old habit having yet to die hard. ]
You do that and you accept udder defeat... though I have calf a mind to do the same.
Then you shouldn't hesitate to grab a bull by the horns.
[ Unlike Spider-Man, Matt's not in the middle of stakeout or anything. He's actually at home, in an ice bath, recovering from a tussle with Kingpin and Hobgoblin that got really damn wild. For one thing, the two of them pissed off Venom for some reaason, and Venom was in such a blind rage that he had it out for everyone in the room-- even Daredevil! Fortunately, they set aside their differences and took down Fisk and Hobgoblin... but not till after Venom threw Matt down a stairwell in their misunderstanding.
This is a long story he's not prepared to share with Felicia. and also me liking to make shit up about the zany stuff these characters get up to
Stupid pun contests like these make for some good unexpected stress relief. ]
[ And for all he knows, she may be busy but – Felicia's sitting on a rooftop watching the freights roll into the docks. A few nights, she ends up alone still suited up – weighing between scratching an itch like checking out the latest MoMA entries for her own selfish score or following a police jammer like she was some hero. ]
Ohhhh, like I haven't herd that one before. Its pasture bedtime, isn't it?
Took a beating from Venom, so I’m taking an ice bath. He had a separate agenda against Fisk and Hobgoblin, but I was able to sic him against those two before he could kill me.
Honestly? I'm pretty hungry. But I do have leftovers in need of clearing out.
Let's save the Chinese for later, shall we?
[ He notices that the pun contest has officially ended, and he's fine with that, preferring instead to focus on how much the bath is soothing an accumulation of aches and pains. Despite all the power afforded to him by his senses, Matt really can't afford to forget he's only just a man, lacking the endowments of many he's gone toe-to-toe with... as well as alongside. ]
If Spider-Man tags along, we won't even need the Uber Eats.
Never properly thanked you guys for the Foom incident, anyway.
[ Leftovers, she means. It was a tough job, but she gets it. There's days where she ended up sleeping over 12 hours, ignoring calls and making sure not a drop of sunlight hits her with curtains drawn. There's... a lot of recovery needed for this... hobby. ]
It's fine, part of the territory. I got a dozen or two coffee dates out of it. Not all bad. Add an order of Orange Chicken and all debts will be paid.
[ Despite how banged up he is, Matt's chipper knowing he's had worse. But he appreciates the understanding, because quite frankly? Few other people understand the life. The ease of misunderstanding has made things difficult for him, to be sure. He need only think of his friendship with Foggy, especially. ]
The Chaste are just happy the egg never fell into the Hand's... hands.
You can imagine what they'd get up to if they held a bargaining chip against Fin Fang Foom.

[ Not like that. But. At least they can be coy enough about the whole thing. Felicia has no shame and Matt is a bro. Sooooo. ]
Didn't want to summon bad juju, but maybe we're far past that point.
Scratch that, it was just a missed opportunity.

Oh, that one isn't even a devil pun! That could be for bulls!
no subject
[ He's trying to make a blind joke, because he literally can't watch, but he fails to realize how else that comes off.
He's also absolutely down to smash.
...smash with a capital S. The Nintendo kind of Smash. ]
Oh? So you're calling bullshit on my usage of it?
no subject
Are you ever going to get tired of that joke?
[ Voyeur Daredevil is not a thing, unfortunately. ]
Maybe. I feel like you could have used it. Or... could be a case of...
Deja Moo.
no subject
Not that I will.

You could say Venom was seeing red.
no subject
The Venom thing, not the ice bath. But, always a nice visual. You holding up fine or you need me to Uber Eats you some Chinese?
[ At least he can win something today, their pun contest. There's rare moments where Felicia drops the act and can be a concerned feline, okay. ]

[ In true Daredevil fashion, he loves pushing his luck. ]
I could get you a medal from the same folks that made all our "Nelson and Murdock" nameplates.
"Felicia Hardy: Savior of New York City, Deliverer of Chocolate Eggs."
no subject
[ Don't push the luck against a black cat, dumb dumb. ]
Please don't. I have no space for it and if I get anymore things, my landlord may think I'm a hoarder at this point. The medal lives on in my heart.
no subject
[ He selects a gif from a vaguely-inputted description alone, and sends it. Not even knowing what's actually in it. ]
Well, I'm not gonna insist. But just know you can call in a favor any time.
Doesn't matter how seemingly trivial, either. Just might lead to another... eggscapade.
no subject
[ Jesus, what a boomer. ]
I'll remember that and make you regret it. Writing a blank check your ass may not be able to cash, hmm. Especially for that last pun. Ugh.
no subject
Forget it. I'm stopping there. Drawing the line definitively.
[ He seems to have lost self control, here. Like it's more difficult not to make another shitty pun. ]
Compared to all the law school debt I'm still paying off, that's nothing.
Might have to cash it in later, though. Wolverine's calling. I think he's ready to tell me all about Eastern Europe.
no subject
Talk to you later, DD. Take care of yourself and soak a little extra.
[ AND ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL CLOSED THREAD. ]
