THE PUNISHER | 1.02 — Two Dead Men

the absolute crux of the kastle bond is that they were both the protectors/providers of their families and they both carry around the guilt and blame of failing that responsibility. it's why karen starts crying literally anytime he starts talking about his family and how they were better off without him, she's not just being empathetic she knows from experience how it feels (she's the guy that jumps down in the hole with you because she's been there before and knows the way out)

its so fascinating bc punisher s1 really clearly lays out how frank views relationships and it is insane. he’s really dismissive of the idea of casual relationships (you and your women to billy) so someone either is family (thus ensuring full and eternal commitment) or there is no romantic interest. this is why the idea of doing anything with sarah is so repugnant to him (he clearly says to david i would only ever be with my wife thats why i dont want your wife). which is why when he clearly does have romantic feelings for karen even though they arent in a romantic relationship he categorizes her as wife/family/etc. of course she has no idea that he feels this way as he never expresses it to her (except to say my family is gone which is why you must be safe which is in his eyes a sort of confession (at least of his ideology)). and hes so consumed with vengeance and admittedly terrified of returning home from war (and with everything we see of him home would be family which canonically is karen) that he is completely unwilling to be around her unless its to keep her safe for some future he hasnt even allowed himself to imagine. and its aggravating bc karen! like always! believes she is the one who cares the most! and why would she suspect hes telling ppl shes his wife when theyve never even kissed! bc thats insane!

Daredevil: Born Again Straight to Hell | 1.09

Dear Disney,

As you navigate new marketing strategies for Born Again season two please consider the following: Deborah Anne Woll DMs a one shot DND campaign featuring Elden Henson, Jon Bernthal, Vincent D’onofrio, and of course Charlie Cox.

Reblog if you want to see this and maybe we can will this plan into existence.

Part two of this wish is a pipe dream but…Deborah Anne Woll can DM a campaign for Charlie Cox, Andrew Garfield, Robert Pattinson, Jamie Dornan, and Eddie Redmayne

Okay but for the first suggestion…seriously…money in your pocket Disney… new fans out of the woodwork I promise.

Just saw The Accountant² and now it's just me, Braxton Wolff and his huge orange cat against the world

Just here to remind everyone that Frank is Karen's emergency contact.

That's it. That's the post.
