Iāll keep reblogging this everytime I see it. It still feels surreal to have this.
Frankās eyes says it all.
THIS IS A LOOK OF YEARNING
THIS MAN YEARNS
((Also Mattās face hearing Frankās and Karenās heartbeat<3))
rewatching the punisher and the kastle elevator scene is my pride and prejudice rain confession scene actually
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.
you asked me for a favor. i did it.
matt wondering what the chicken fried fuck went on in those trial prep meetings he skipped
Just here to remind everyone that Frank is Karen's emergency contact.
That's it. That's the post.
narratively I am a fan of romances that donāt ever actually become romances
I donāt mean in an aromantic life partner way, I mean romantic tension that is never resolved or acted upon for whatever reason but by the end itās clear that both characters experienced the love of their lives without ever acknowledging it as such. but they know. they know.
lieberman would have rolled on the floor if he saw frank fidgeting and internally losing his mind over karenās āno, thank youā i just know it
and guess who else? Foggy. Foggy would go red trynna keep his laughter in bc he wouldnāt dare. not in front of the punisher. but he would
Well fucks? Get to it!

The fucking PUNISHER strolling casually into a barber shop: I need a fade and a shave STAT my GIRLFRIEND is back in town and I can't look like a fucking hipster in front of her
His thumb on her cheek... The hand on the side of her neck... THE FOREHEAD KISS!!! Please I'm weeping.
He's a literal killing machine and he's capable of such gentleness
There's so much love in this bleeding, broken, tortured heart of his.
matt had to pack a box of foggy's things. he had to run his fingers over the avocados at law desk nameplate and put it away forever. that's enough now. give foggy nelson back. matt murdock's suffering knows no true bounds but that's enough.
i just think it's kind of funny (actually devastating) that big bad frank castle would absolutely come the fuck undone if karen ever said the phrase "make love to me" like it would K I L L him
Oh lord. He could fall apart in so many ways -- he'd just have to pick which avenue to fall into.
You heard his too?
Oh, yeah.
not to be freaked out or anything but i fully know that if and when karen and frank ever do the deed frank would be so gentle with her like ugh can someone ao3 that or do i have to
s/o for noticing that Karen shone her flashlight on Frankās case files (from the trial, DD S2) right exactly when she said āItās just adrenaline, Iām sureā so I also rewatched the scene and it is indeed his files
now iām gonna think about this a lot too

Are y'all telling me this is not the mental conversation they were having

Also, Iāll take Kastle however we can get it. But the love triangle is so tired. It just makes no sense at this point.
Daredevil season 2 showed why Karen and Matt arenāt compatible. It also posed the idea that she has far more in common with Frank. We then saw in season 3 that Karen and Matt work better as friends.
Meanwhile, Karen and Frankās connection strengthened throughout The Punisher show. There was no question how deep their feelings for each other had become. In season 2 she was willing to abandon everything for Frank.
So why are we backtracking again? Matt has several other love interests that we could continue to explore instead.
I really did not think we were going to win like this lmao. If JB is in s2 of born again we basically have kastle in the bag.
just rewatched s2ep11 of Punisher and iām deadass confused how Karen and Frank arenāt gonna end up together. they have to. thereās no other choice. Karen asked him to āmake it mean somethingā that she came to visit him. she was willing to throw her entire life away to help him and he couldnāt 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 couldnāt do a thing about it. they almost kissed!! and theyāre not gonna be endgame??
It says a lotāa lot, a lotāthat Karen and Frank didnāt get closer than a couple feet from each other this whole episode. The chemistry is too strong and wouldāve blown up the ātriangleā once and for all, letās be honest here.
