No, I always feared that would be the case. But hanging with you and learning more about it, I don't know... You guys built a really nice community. I get that, at least.

I think I kinda saw him blush once...

People definitely make places. Make home. [And that's why she will never leave New York.] You so have to, Matt! And Italy, Portugal, Spain... Picture this: sunbathing on a yacht, swimming in the italian sea and then later dressing up for the actual, real deal of pasta.

[ooc: Oooooh, you guys are almost there! That sounds so exhausting though and I still think its so sweet of you to use your talent in the kitchen to pamper people a little and brighten the mood. <3 My day was good, just finishing my reviews of The Accountant 2 - which I loved! - and Until Dawn.]

[ooc: Aaaaah, congrats!! You definitely got through the heavy lifting! And I bet everyone loved your breakfast. <3 Shush! You were definitely missed but you know that there's no rush at all. 😘]

Damn, sounds like I just missed a good one. Do they still do choruses and siging out of those dates? Sorry, I'm so out of touch with these things... But I'd love to attend sometime with you, see how it is.

Do you really think I'm capable of that?? I'm almost afraid to know now...

...
It's also a really good plan if you wanna make up with a girlfriend. Just saying.

[ooc: What did you cook for them this time? Aaaah so glad to hear that. Mine was good. I got quite a bit of work done and went shopping. X3]

That must be really nice for you. Like, I bet the chorus makes -- I mean, not saying you cannot connect otherwise. But even I think it's pretty magical. [A beat.] I'd love to go to mass with you someday.

... Thank you so much for the vote of confidence there.

..... You think Heather and you are going to breakup? [Oh, she's a horrible human being for being so nosey.] All the more reasons to pull out a big gesture, Matt.

[ooc: Man, I just had dinner but the thought alone makes me hungry again. XD Yes, it was a good one, thank you! <3]

My mom would lose her shit if she heard about this.

... Not most of the time, but I am when it matters!

Matt, you took a whole year, the city will be fine for a weekend. You - You deserve focusing on your personal life too.

More like me setting up on fire if I stepped into the church, yeah. My mom's a catholic too.

Do you really think I would be so mean I'd embarrass the poor kid?

... Good point.

Still, maybe planning it together could help? You know, having something to look forward to.

She doesn't really show it off like you do. Wait, there's service at jail?

Well, not intentionally or in any way. You know when someone feels so awkward and it feeds the energy in the room. I was super consious of him.

... Dammit.

... [Well, she tried. She tried to be a good friend, right? If Matt doesn't wanna try or talk about it, then at least she did her good friend deed of the day.] You keep bringing shame into this city when you talk shit like that, Matthew.

That, you carry your cross with you, you go to mass all the time. And then there's the devil suit, yep. [She listens, kinda impressed. Also now feeling a little guilty over how little she knows of the institution where she's sent her own mother.] Ah, well... Not sure if she'd use it. But I'm glad she has the option.

Yeah, that's it. Thank you! [A beat.] Besides, I'm not even sure what was going on there. For all I know he was texting some girl he likes or whatever.

If you keep adding things to it that is no longer a bagel. Stop lying to yourself, Matt.

Was it supposed to be a secret? [She wonders if he carries it with him under the Daredevil suit too.] Yeah, exactly. You go a lot to mass.

... I barely know Coop and he barely speaks to me. So, unless he sees me as a big sis...

It's like stacking a shitton of things on a bruschetta. It's not a brushchetta anymore, Matt.

Why don't you like flaunting it? [She's genuinelly curious about that. Isn't he proud of his religion.] A regular whole lot.

Or he might just be full of hormones.

Elevated my ass. You're making a whole different dish.

Okay, okay! I didn't mean to offend you. I'm just... So used to seeing people wearing them.

Either way, it's cute. And I don't wanna make him uncomfortable.

And you have the nerve to criticize my burgers.

Okay, just checking. [A beat.] Does that mean you're not gonna get your ear pierced and wear a huge cross earring?

It's so cute to see all three of the kids, though. Clint and Laure are really great parents.

Your palate is not balanced!

You're not big on piercings or tattoos, Matt? [She considers this for a moment.] Can you feel the designs on a person's skin?

Yeah, he did. The Christmas when we met... I caught him trying to talk with Nate on the phone even though he couldn't hear a thing. It kinda really hit me then, you know? What Clint was sacrificing. I mean, danger aside. He just wanted to spend time with his family but he was here in New York trying to solve that mess.

Says the man who can barely take spice.

Overexplaining is okay as long as you don't get sick of me? [Kate poited out with a hopefully tone on her voice.] I like knowing how you experience things and it's so crazy that you can even feel pictures. [Another reason why Matt Murdock is incredibly impressive.] But I was thinking... You know how people say that having piercings in certain areas of the body enhances how the touch feels for them? It reminded me of you.

[Is it like that for him as well?]

He probably does, as much as he is tired and keeps claiming he wants to spend the rest of his life doing farm stuff.

And here I was about to tell Kirsten you were up for the hot chip challenge for the firm's social media... [She clicks her tongue.]
