Leave Matt a message below!

[Her body rocks lightly, following the movements of Matt's gentle but big hand.

Her shoulder suddenly bumps up in what's almost a stubborn half-shrug.]


It's not like there's nothing good. Or like, I can't take it. I can totally take it. I'm just-- So fucking tired of things going wrong.

[Kate's smile becomes even easier as Lucky comes over. She pets him eagerly, truly touched by how her dog senses that she's feeling down.]

I know. I know, Matt.

[And yet, the response is almost automathic. Like she wants to just drop this, for him to stop worrying. It's weird when people worry about her. She doesn't want to give anyone reasons to worry.]

My mom -- I thought I hated her. [She confesses, knowing Matt won't drop this and this is probably the one time in a long time when she'll have the chance to open up like this to someone else.]

When she was arrested, she looked at me in the eye and asked if that's what heroes do, you know? Getting their mothers arrested during Christmas. Like it was my fault, as if I had betrayed her.

I know she was being unfair. And I thought I hated her for it. For what she's done. [People had died because of Eleanor's actions, sometimes because she thought she was protecting Kate by doing that. Hell, she had put a price on Clint's head. Had framed her fiánce. Her mother deserved to pay for her crimes, yes. But... Fisk had also led her down that road with a debt Eleanor had inherited from Kate's late father.

Even her dad, the dad who's memory she so adored, had disappointed Kate.]


But now, with Fisk being where he is, I can't stop worrying too, Matt.

[For a moment, Kate says nothing. She seems focused on massaging her dog's head, his ears. Learning every curve and angle of his face as she's seen Matt do once. Lucky stays still, seemingly enjoying the attention. Or taking it, knowing it sooths his human.]

I don't know if I want her to know I'm worried.

[It's probably a horrible thing to do, punish her mother like that. With silence. But right now that's the best Kate can offer. Doubt.]

Do you really think Cherry could keep an eye on her? I'll pay him.

[For a moment, Kate says nothing, the shoe dropping as she realizes that this is really happening. That the thing that's been bothering her for months is finally being taken care of. As much as she worried about talking to someone about it, it had been worth it after all.]

Yeah, sorry! [Carefully, she nudges Lucky to get off her lap.] I'll go get your clothes.

[But before she gets up, she finds herself hesitating. Finally, she takes his hand, giving it a light squeeze.] Thank you.

But, you --

[He does. He knows where the washing machine is, he's heard it.]

... Yeah. Yeah, okay.

[The second Matt is off, Lucky takes the chance to claim his spot on the couch, curling next to Kate and resting his head on her lap. Kate smiles down at him as she pets him, whispering as she speaks, almost barely mouthing her words.]

That's good, isn't it? [Suddenly, hope reaches her heart again.]
hawk_shot: (oh yeah for sure!)

[personal profile] hawk_shot 2025-04-07 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[Kate trusts her washing machine. Many times it has saved some of her clothes despite of how her knowledge is reduced to YouTube tutorials when it comes to getting rid of certain stains. It's still a relief to see Matt return with no signs of human waste on his outfit.

He surprises her, as he doesn't show any signs of wanting to leave straight away, her heart beating with delight.]


He is shameless like that. [And yet, Lucky wags his tail lazily as Kate scoots them both to make room for Matt.] How's that feel? Not freezing your butt anymore?

Do regular socks feel like sandpaper?

[He's mentioned how sensitive his body can be at times. Of course, she's always going to tease him about it.

Though, she's gotta agree. Socks out of the dryer are the best.]


How do you deal with your suit? Because I gotta say, that doesn't look super comfortable.

[personal profile] hawk_shot 2025-04-07 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, you can't really judge the crumbs in bed because it's freaky how sensitive you can be! [There was a barely contained laugh in her voice as she playfully shoved Matt.]

Two questions: does the back ever get between your asscheeks and, if it does, do you feel like you lose coolness points by adjusting it?

You say that as if I had wrappers of food and plates all over the mattres. [She huffs.] Wait, can you hear that kinda thing? As in, can you listen if there's bedbugs?

[That would be so disgusting.]

Damn. Guess I'll have to keep pretending I'm adjusting my quiver.

[Matt is a good actor. He has to be, considering he leads a double-life and has managed to fool most people in it. And the news he shares? The first part hit Kate with a wave of disgust. That is, until he gives more details.

Grabbing the pillow she brought in case he wanted to get some shut eye, she doesn't think twice before she smacks him on the chest with it.]


Asshole! I was ready to puke in my mouth!

[Pretending she is far more annoyed than she really is, Kate lets out a loud huff and grabs her coffee to regain some fuel.]

If I become their leader I know where I'm sending my army. You, sir? [She pokes at the side of his waist, making her way up in the hopes of reaching his armpits.] Will wake up to a bed infested with those bugs!

[Even though Kate is not as observant as Matt can be, oh, she doesn't miss how quick he is to evade her poking. That means something!]

Matt Murdock, you are ticklish! [And she sounds so triumphant as she puts her mug down.]
