    Summary

    Fics & ficlets I’ve had running through my head and want to put out in the ether. Mostly Matt whump with a little silliness down the road (esp as I drift more into Avengers crossovers).

    Mostly stand-alone, though others in the series can add context for character interactions as that builds. But think of it more as snapshots over time instead of a continuous narrative.

    Current theory is that it's how I process my own sensitive senses and chronic pain. But I'm at the point I keep cycling these in my head, re-editing them, and it's becoming a problem for focus and sleep. I'm hoping that getting them out of my head will help me stop #@!&ing thinking about them finally.

    I feel like I’ve read just about every DD fanfic on this site at this point, and I'm sometimes unsure if my ideas are actually original versus just an amalgamation of all I’ve read Frankensteined together. To that effect, if you notice something is super similar to something else you've read, then my brain probably looped it in to my own story, so please let me know in the comments so I can take a look to see if I remember it, then credit it under 'remix/inspired by' accordingly.

    Summary

    When Matt Murdock finally accepts an invitation to join one of the Avengers' bonding sessions, he quickly realizes that maybe he should have thought of the fact that said socializing could get hampered by being blind – and having to hide that fact at all costs.
    Even when those costs include the Avengers jumping to unfavorable conclusions about him.

    Summary

    "Jay's gonna love this." Roy speaks as the picture is taken, then sets his phone back down, admiring his present boyfriend's bodies, their love, and the two take a minute to keep pressing against one another before they're pulling away to catch their breaths, and Dick turns his head to look at Roy, panting as he smiles.

    "Wanna make him a movie, baby?"

    Wally whines.

    Summary

    “No, it’s not that I’ve had nothing to draw, it's just…” John trailed off, tearing his eyes away from his computer and scowling at his recycling bin across the room, filled to the brim with crumpled papers, abandoned ideas. “I don’t know. Maybe I’m trying to find a beauty that doesn’t exist.”

    After almost thirty years of art being a massive part of his life, John is stumped with the longest bout of art block he's ever experienced. Worried that the lack of motivation may begin to really fuck him over, his friends suggest that he approaches art from a new angle and tries a new style.

    So his first attempts at realism prove to be almost uncomfortable. However, when John’s best friend, Smitty, jokes that he should be John's muse for his next attempt, John ends up tumbling down a rabbit hole of realizations, and finds a new beauty he didn't think was even possible in his art, (or his heart).

    Summary

    He clipped Octavia's leash back on and they left the park, eager to get home and get out of the freezing January air. They approached the edge of the pavement just outside of the park's perimeter. Octavia dutifully planted her butt on the curb, waiting for Smitty to tell her when to cross.

    He looked to the left.

    He looked to the right.

    And stepped out onto the road.

    //

    An unfortunate accident brings John and Smitty closer than ever.
