Saying you're still young isn't the same as calling you an infant. Twenties is young. I'm not sure why you want it to be considered old, or why young only equates to diapers.
It's one of those days. I got you. You got me. And together we've got everyone else.
I'm down for that. I don't mind conspiracy theories. Who knows. If Thor exists, so can anything, right? I think you'd like The Expanse though now that I'm thinking on it. There are an endless amount of really badass ladies in it.
Yeah, well... [She pauses.] Saying I don't have a 'long time ago'. I have. I went through a lot of shit and I'm not a kid. I know we are a team and you treat me like a partner, but I'm not that young, Matt.
[She takes a deep breath.] We've got this. In a few days we're gonna chill and do pole dance together.
For real? I was just messing with you, but you're on. And I love that you watch nerdy shows. I'm up for bingewatching something like that.
You can appreciate though that your 'long ago' might not be for me, right? Your first love was what, perhaps around ten years ago? That's not long for me. That happens when people are in different periods of their lives. My first love was closer to thirty years ago. We can be a team and you can still seem young to me, because young does not equate to infant automatically. Stop making every discussion into extremes without nuance. Also, going through shit doesn't automatically equate to a long timeline. One person could go through more in one year than another in a lifetime. That doesn't mean shit for 'a long time ago.'
I'll make sure that you have a chance to rest and recoup.
I love science fiction. Especially when it's hopeful about the future.
[It's a touchy subject even though it shouldn't be. Why is she fighting to have a chance in a fight she's already lost? One that never really started. There's no point in trying to pretend that a relationship between them would't be innapropiate when he already has a girlfriend and Kate would never dare to make a move.
... Not consciously.
God, she's a horrible person for just thinking about this.]
... Fine.
Will you rest and recoup too?
What about Star Wars? It'd be pretty cool to see you do tricks with a lightsaber.
If I can. I'm almost afraid to say too much about resting and jinx us all out of it.
I like Star Wars. I like some of the television shows a lot more than the recent movies. Well, I guess they're not so recent now, but the last made movies.
Because we are never resting again in our lives. After tonight? Work non-stop. And we hide in the sewers, Matthew. [Screw it, might as well try this jinxing technique then.]
Please, please for the love of everything that's good, dress in a robe next Halloween and do lightsaber tricks. I'll get you a lightsaber blind stick and you'll be the blindman with the most force that ever forced.
I haven't. I'm usually in the office during the day, then suited up at night. Except this past year, where I just didn't do anything at night. So what's been your favorite costumes?
The Blues of the Devil and the Hawk, that's what I'm calling your playlist. Ever listened to Måneskin, Matt?
How can you just 'not do anything' for Halloween. Seriously, start thinking what you wanna do this year or I'm picking for you. [She pauses.] My favorite? You realize that's a really hard question? Okay... okay, on my Top 3 for sure, the Avengersaurus.
I sat on my sofa, drank wine, and listened to documentaries. I did pass out candy to trick or treaters, so. I wasn't the asshole who just turned off all the lights.
... what is an Avengersaurus?
I was waiting for it since it was announced, had high hopes and it was better than expected 😍
For real, Matt? Not a blues at all, no. But, I mean, I have some lyrics you really need to hear. [And she sounds delighted about it.] 'I'm the devil who's searching for redemption and I'm a lawyer who's searching for redemption'? It's like the song was made for you.
You could have worn a sheet at least. A guy going through the streets wearing a sheet without the holes on his eyes would actually be kinda creepy.
So, there's these inflatable dinosaur costumes that became pretty popular, right? Some friends of mine and I bought the same t-rex costume and personalized them each as an Avenger. It was stupidly fun.
Huh. Now I'm just paranoid they somehow know my secret identity. Since of course it is all about me.
I was in sweats and slightly drunk, it was an excellent night of hermiting.
In my mind it was one dinosaur with all the Avengers somehow represented on it. Like a weird freak transporter accident combining bodies in a prehistoric way.
It gives me the greatest joy. This one goes straight to my faves this year. And the soundtrack!!🤩
It gets very slutty, so go figure. Maybe I should change my ringtone for you?
Not under my watch anymore, Murdock. Say goodbye to boring Halloween nights from now on.
Don't tempt me to update my Avengersaurus costume, 'cause I will. But, in all seriousness, nothing beats getting costumes and going out as a group with friends.
Blues and reds and a cape that looks like kinda patchwork inside? I don't know, I haven't paid too much attention. But it seems to be alive, it's kinda crazy.

Well, you can show your abilities on a pole and impress the whole class and then go back home for a much deserved nap!
Are you cool with aliens being in them?
no subject
We just gotta get through tonight.
I don't mind aliens. What show has aliens in it? Besides Star Trek. The Expanse was also really good, by the way. Speaking on science fiction.
no subject
... This is it, isn't it? One of those days when you know it's gonna be a big deal.
Oh, you know, most the shows in History Channel. Figured we could watch all about how the pyramids were built by reptilians or whatever.

Ha. I haven't dressed up for Halloween in a long time. Let me guess, you always do.
You bring up blues + Haille and I have the best war flashbacks with Sinners
Of course I do! You really haven't dressed up in years? I can't believe the guys let you get away with that.
[Brace yourself, Matt. There's no way you're not wearing a costume next Halloween.]
As you should!
I haven't. I'm usually in the office during the day, then suited up at night. Except this past year, where I just didn't do anything at night. So what's been your favorite costumes?
Best movie of the yearrrr

I haven't seen it! Will add to the list.

Foggy would always try to get me to go to parties. I'd never make the time. Too busy being Daredevil.
no subject
Matt, even Daredevil is allowed to take an hour a night to have some fun. After you've taken a year off, you have to admit that that's true.
no subject
It's easier to take a year than an hour, oddly. I'm not great at balance. Tend to be all or nothing.
no subject
You could always make this your belated New Year's resolution, Matt.
no subject
What if my resolution was to eat more tacos instead?
no subject
You wanna scare your enemies with your hellish farts?
no subject
Some of our digestive systems can handle tacos.
no subject
Even the real spicy ones?
