DAREDEVIL | S02E12 "The Dark At The End Of The Tunnel"

DAREDEVIL — 2.08 "Guilty as Sin"

Always, Forever Running Back to You

Post-01x09, Daredevil: Born Again

Frank knocks once, just once, then steps back and glances down the dim, too-quiet hallway. The place is clean and seems safe enough, but it’s not the kind of hotel that has heightened security or anyone who’d notice if something went sideways. Good thing he’s there.

He braces one hand on the doorframe and ducks his head, his other hand curling around his ribs. Something’s cracked in there, for sure, courtesy of those sorry fucking excuses for cops. Bunch of dumbass fanboys. And he’ll deal with them. Soon. But first Frank needs to see Karen. He has things to get off his chest. 

“Karen, it’s me,” he says, his voice rough but quiet. “Open up. Please?”

The lock clicks almost immediately, and the door opens. She’s standing there barefoot, in jeans and a worn Columbia crewneck sweatshirt, her blonde hair still damp from the shower and twisted into a loose bun at the top of her head. 

Her eyes sweep over him, cataloging every cut and bruise that hadn’t been there the day before. They linger on his face, on his left eye that’s purple and swollen.

“You look like shit,” she says, pushing the door wide and stepping back to let him in. There’s no heat behind the words, just a thread of worry and exhaustion. “Been busy?”

Frank huffs a breath, almost laughing because, that’s the understatement of the fucking century. “Yeah, somethin’ like that.” 

Karen turns on her heel and pads back into the room, leaving him to follow. It’s as close to an invitation as he’s going to get. He steps inside, locking the door behind him, and follows her to where she’s sitting on the edge of the bed, sinking down beside her. His body aches from the inside out, but the mattress dips under their weight, and he relaxes — just a little — for the first time since he answered the phone to find her on the other end.

I believe in kastle endgame (or at least leaving things open to that possibility) because for frank, there is no one else. there's only karen.

thinking back to jon saying to deborah: "like what is he doing there? it's like if it's not you, everyone else is gone."

matt has a zillion love interests, and karen is one of them, but they're not going to introduce another love interest for frank. they're just not. so either he dies, or he lives the rest of his life alone, or he and karen get together.

The Accountant squared is a hell of a movie it has the Batman element the Red Hood element the sort of double identity element in a way and the Oracle element (and it sort of shows how scary it could be) as well as a Jim Gordon element lmao. It has the dudes being platonically affectionate element. Incredibly incredibly refreshing. It has the “lived in each other’s pocket except that pocket is a bullet proof vest” element so much so that I think @frownyalfred produced this movie. so yes essentially a Batfleck in-universe masterpiece

just rewatched s2ep11 of Punisher and i’m deadass confused how Karen and Frank aren’t gonna end up together. they have to. there’s no other choice. Karen asked him to “make it mean something” that she came to visit him. she was willing to throw her entire life away to help him and he couldn’t let her. she told him to choose to LOVE SOMEONE instead of the war. she begged him to love her. he practically admitted he did but couldn’t do a thing about it. they almost kissed!! and they’re not gonna be endgame??
