Well, duh. You have great friends, of course it's worth sticking around. But you also gotta look after yourself. You're always super kind to others, you should put that to practice with yourself too.
Excuse you? I totally know how to dance. I just don't know some of your old-ass styles.
I'm getting that for your birthday. ... When is your birthday?
There's nothing to think about, Matt. I'm totally fine! I'm not going through what you went through.
You know, challenges. Short and cool choreographies. [A beat.] Oh! You and Kirsten should make an account for the firm! You would attract so many new clients that way!
October 21st. I'm a Libra, so whatever that means.
Weren't you the one who said not to set aside one's own pain by comparing it to someone else's?
Dance challenges are not quite how we want to advertise ourselves. Especially when I don't even know what constitutes these challenges. It could be anything from hip hop to naked conga lines.
... Well, fine. I did it just now. Still not a pot and kettle situation.
Even if I did Kirsten would support me. You'd totally go viral as the ho-- [No, not hot! Kate coughs in a very smooth save.] Honest, naked, blind lawyer. There would be thirst fancams and everything.
... Does it count if I kinda sparred with Jack and kiiinda went for it for real?
I hate you sometimes.
Matt, using social media isn't as simple. It takes a lot of talent and time to get followers, trust me. And marketing usually has a bunch of people pretending they understand how younger people think. Even if they're our same age.
All I know is that Peter keeps bragging about his Spidey posts and followers and I know for a fact that man puts less thoughts into the puns he posts than what toppings he adds on pizza.
He was. A little too well. He was pretending to be a noob but when I went for the kill? He managed to avoid it. Turns out he is pretty great with a sword.
I'm so shocked, Matthew.
Yeah, well but people LOVE Spidey posts and he offers original content. Of course he's gonna get a shitton of followers.
Interesting. He doesn't strike me as the sorta guy into that kinda thing. But he's rich, right? Maybe fencing is just something all you rich people do.
My mother told me it's not that people are jealous, I really can just be that annoying.
I will admit the channel or whatever you call it where people could send warnings has come in handy a time or two, even if it sounds like a pain to figure out which of those threats are real and which are shitposts.
I'm guessing he hasn't stayed in touch with your mom since everything happened.
Ha. Well, you're right that she didn't raise me for a long time. She's one of the nuns at the orphanage I ended up at. Go figure. She's now Mother Superior there and good luck to those children getting away with anything. I visit from time to time.
I love what technology can do to help people. Not even just with disabilities, I think the dissemination of information can be a very powerful tool when used properly. I just don't have the patience for a lot of shit posts. I'd rather read a book or listen to music. Some of what you send is funny, but I wouldn't want to sit and do it for an hour.
I feel kinda guilty because I was so shitty towards him.
Did your mom know about you? Sorry, I'm -- Your life would make a pretty epic movie, Matt.
Oh, yes they are. Terrible taste all along. If only you could see the shirts you wear sometimes. And the ties? Pretty sure that whoever sold you those was pranking you.
It sounds like you both could have acted better. He didn't exactly do himself any favors leaping into your life like he did. It's one thing to date your mom, it's another to presume he can already start acting like your parent. I'd have been upset too, even if how you handled it probably wasn't the best way if it involved attempted stabbing.
My life is ridiculous, I know. At least not as ridiculous as Danny's. And yeah. My mom knows now.
Diana and Leanne at the suit store would never steer me wrong. We have an understanding. I bring them exotic gelato flavors and they make me look decent.
[Matt cannot help but flirt, even when it's harmless. Doesn't everyone know store workers by name and bring them treats and debate the ethics of the cat adoption system when needing new attire?]
[And this is why Matt is one of her favorite people in the world. The guy listens, remembers well Kate's old rants about Jack and the reasons why she had hated him as his relationship with Eleanor became more serious.]
I'm still not over that stupid book on how to be a step-father. [That had been ridiculous.] In my defense, I only tried to stab him when I thought he was behind the murder mom framed him for.
I'll be the judge of that once I meet Danny. And I so wanna meet your mom.
... But they don't do your hair, do they? It shows.

no subject
Is this a pot and kettle situation, Ms. Bishop?
And what styles besides the classics do you know, then? Besides twerking.
no subject
.... What? No! Me?
Well... I've nailed some TikTok challenges.
no subject
Mhm, that's what I thought.
What style of dance are those?
no subject
... When is your birthday?
There's nothing to think about, Matt. I'm totally fine! I'm not going through what you went through.

no subject
... No. I just... I said nothing about comparing!
Oh, please. You really think I'd make you do a naked conga?
no subject
You said not to disregard one's own pain because another might be going through shit. Sounds like a comparison to me. Take your own point.
I absolutely think you'd try and get me to do a naked conga.
no subject
... Well, fine. I did it just now. Still not a pot and kettle situation.
Even if I did Kirsten would support me. You'd totally go viral as the ho-- [No, not hot! Kate coughs in a very smooth save.] Honest, naked, blind lawyer. There would be thirst fancams and everything.
no subject
Why does the thought of being kind to yourself bother you so much?
Not my kind of advertising. When you figure out what you want to do with your life, you can naked conga line it to fame all you want.
no subject
It's not like that, it doesn't bother me. But I don't think I'm unkind to myself. You think I'm unkind to myself?
Maybe I will. Maybe I'll take control of Bishop Security's social media.
no subject
I think you're sometimes very hard on yourself. And you put others ahead of yourself even when you might have needs, too.
If that's a real job, I think you'd do it well.
no subject
That... [She swallows.] Yeah, that might sound a little like a pot and kettle situation.
Matt, you're telling me you've never heard of Community Managers?
no subject
Told ya I'm usually right.
I've heard of marketing teams. I figured these days social media would be part of them.
no subject
I hate you sometimes.
Matt, using social media isn't as simple. It takes a lot of talent and time to get followers, trust me. And marketing usually has a bunch of people pretending they understand how younger people think. Even if they're our same age.

no subject
I really need to meet your mom. She sounds awesome and I need to tell her that really, none of this is her fault.
Honestly, Matt. You need to start embracing technology. And even shitposting. You have to admit that some of the video memes I send you are awesome.
no subject
Ha. Well, you're right that she didn't raise me for a long time. She's one of the nuns at the orphanage I ended up at. Go figure. She's now Mother Superior there and good luck to those children getting away with anything. I visit from time to time.

no subject
Wait, your mom is a nun? And did you know that while you were at the orphanage?
Oh, Matt Murdock got his degree because he is really into culture and doesn't have time for memes, yeah.
no subject
I didn't know it while I was at the orphanage. I found out many, many years later. It's a long story.
He has his interests, which just because they aren't your interests doesn't mean they're better or worse.
no subject
Did your mom know about you? Sorry, I'm -- Your life would make a pretty epic movie, Matt.
