number ONE kiss for matador (mattdora thank u)

a kiss to make up for an argument

It’s not that they never fight. It’s not even that they fight rarely, either, as nosy Mrs Ewins in 4B can attest to. Matt and Dora have roaring rows down to an art form, at this point; they met in a firefight almost five years ago, and sometimes it feels like they’ve been trapped there ever since.

This one— God, she doesn’t even remember what this one was about. The spine-chilling rage starts to fade from the moment she storms out of Matt’s apartment, so that by the time she’s halfway home, she’s mostly just tired. So tired. She’s not sure she remembers a day she wasn’t.

It’s just… everything’s been so much lately. Ellison’s replacement has been on her ass about a deadline for the last week, and the five year anniversary of Ben’s death is coming up, and there’s been more ghosts on her ass than ever, since the Snap.

One of Matt’s neighbours got dusted. Her name was Carol. She was probably a sweet old lady, in life; she died wearing a floral nightgown, and looks like the kinda woman who spent her whole life waiting for grandkids to spoil. In death, though, she’s—

Loud isn’t the right word for it. Ghosts are always loud, even the quiet ones; they twitch and moan in the corners of every room, wailing inside her head when she sleeps and sobbing dejectedly when she wakes. But there’s something about the way Carol haunts that’s different— and not in a good way.

Matt’s apartment used to be— it was safe. Safe in the way a black hole’s safe. It used to seem like ghosts avoided it; like even the dead feared the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen. Dora liked it that way; even her own apartment isn’t safe from the hordes of undead that like to check-in with her before she so much as gets out of bed to do her morning piss, but his was. His was.

It’s not like that anymore. Not with damn Carol sitting in the corner of his bedroom, turning wet, pleading, half-translucent eyes on Dora every time she visits.

Dora heaves a sigh as she unlocks her door, dropping her keys into the plate by the door Leona’s eldest, Mahari, made at summer camp last year. The ceramic clinks in the muffled darkness of her apartment; her shoes join the cacophony of noise next, the hard soles of her boots knocking firmly against the floor once she’s shaken them off with a sigh.

Mittens mrrps softly at her feet, ghostly body passing through one of her calves as he winds between her legs. She heaves a sigh, stooping to run her fingers through the ice-cold air where his head should be; he preens, purring audibly, but even his good mood can’t dampen the fatigue sitting in her chest like a tumour.

“C’mon, buddy,” Dora murmurs, nudging him with a toe that goes straight through his fluffy side.

“Cat?”

“Jesus, Matt!”

“Sorry,” says Daredevil, sitting in the dark in her living room and not looking very sorry at all.

Dora huffs and flicks on her lightswitch, then shrugs out of her jacket and tosses it on the coat rack. He moves behind her; she can hear it, the creak of his suit and the low grumble her crappy craigslist couch releases when he pulls himself off of it. His shoes scuff against the floor. She hopes he at least cleaned them before he dropped in through her fire escape; turns out, the amount of birdshit on the rooftops of New York is insane.

“I’m really not in the mood to argue again, Matt,” she finally says once she’s in the kitchen, knowing without looking back that he’s followed her. “So if that’s what you’re here for—”

“That’s not what I’m here for.”

Dora sighs. Pulls a beer out from the refrigerator; it hisses when she pops off the lid, and when she turns back to Matt, he’s leaning against the doorway with his head tilted like he’s listening.

He’s not wearing the mask, at least. She’s not sure she’d be able to resist the urge to kick him out if he was. It’s not that she hates the thing; she doesn’t exactly have a leg to stand on, there, with the Mystic’s black-and-purple suit tucked away in a suitcase under her bed. It’s just— she likes seeing his face when they get into it like this. Likes being able to read him. Even if he can’t see, he carries his emotions in his eyes the way the rest of them do; it’s easier for her to decode them if they’re not covered up.

She’d known from the moment she left that he’d probably dress up and go out to whale on bad guys, since that’s always how he’s preferred to deal with his problems. That he’d turn up here, though— that she didn’t expect.

“What are you here for, then?” Dora asks at last, taking a sip from the bottle and tossing the metal lid into the trash.

Matt hesitates, eyes locked over her shoulder as his jaw works. For all he’s good with words in the courtroom, they do have a habit of failing him at times like this. Sometimes she likes it; likes how his voice cracks when she sucks a bruise into his neck, or how she can always tell she’s getting under his skin when his tone goes tight and his words turn snappish.

She doesn’t like it, this time.

“Matt—”

“I know I’ve been— I haven’t been easy. Lately. I know.”

Dora heaves a sigh, scrubbing a hand over her eyes. “No, you haven’t.”

Matt’s nod is tight. “I know it’s— it’s hard for you, too.”

It is. They found Karen’s dust in her apartment, just a couple hours after Matt called in a panic ‘cause Foggy disappeared in front of him. One of Dora’s nephews got snapped, too, and none of them have started visiting her from beyond the grave just yet, but that doesn’t mean she hasn’t been keeping an eye out.

She takes another sip to bat that thought away. She doesn’t— she doesn’t wanna think about that right now. She doesn’t wanna think about Matt’s taut expression right now either, if she’s being honest, but on that front at least she has little choice.

“Yeah, well. It’s shit.” What can you do? says her tone, and Matt laughs. Tired and bitter and low and hers.

“Yeah, it is.”

Matt has a way of looking at her without really looking. She’s never really been able to explain it, but he’s doing it again now. His eyes are still staring sightlessly over her shoulder, but his head is tilted forward a little, and even though he’s not smiling, his face is very soft. He looks— he looks like he’s listening, is the closest she can get to describing it. Like he’s focusing.

“I’m sorry,” he says at last. The syllables are clear and crisp in the silence stretching between them, like a mouthful of cold water on a summer’s day. “Dora. I’m— I am sorry.”

“Mm.”

Dora studies him for a moment longer. Memorises the penitent slant to his face, to think about the next time he pisses her off. Then she puts the bottle down on her counter and crosses the kitchen to the doorway.

“Fine,” she sighs, leaning up on her tiptoes to brush her mouth over his. “Fine. I’m sorry too. Happy?”

He chuckles against her, one large gloved hand splaying over her spine. Kisses her once, twice, three times. His stubble burns against her chin, but his lips are warm and plush and familiar. They must’ve done this a hundred times by now. Privately, Dora hopes they get to do it a hundred more, though she’d never tell him that.

“Yeah, I guess,” he breathes when they finally part, tugging her closer. “Happy.”

Dora + Daredevil's ghost after he dies tragically? 👀

(also, Vanja + Hanako b/c i love trainwrecks)

send me an OC + an alternate love interest for them!

vanja radovic + hanako arasaka:

i'm gonna do this one first bc anon i think u severely underestimated how bad my daredevil brainworms are atm shjsdjkdsjk.

so alright! there's no way vanja and hanako would work well together; vanja just hates arasaka so much for kicking her to the curb and essentially ruining her life like they did, after she worked so hard to claw her way out of the streets. i think also she doesn't think too highly of hanako as a person; thinks she's sorta cowardly, for being so determined not to fight her brother in the beginning, and also kind of expects hanako to stab her in the back as soon as it's convenient for her, since that's the corpo way. on hanako's end i don't think she's too fond of vanja either; she's a catty little shit-talker, and honestly i think hanako thinks she's a little... jumped up, shall we say??? this streetkid trash playing at being a corpo, making life inconvenient for her. maybe some hate sex is on the cards tho??? in which case good for them tbqh

dora penrose + (dead) matt murdock:

the way thinking abt this has consumed my entire day oh my god. alright. OK. so. obviously there's that period post-defenders where everyone thinks matt's dead (and dora kinda goes off the deep end trying to resurrect him, because if the hand can do it, why the fuck can't she?), so that'd probably be the most convenient way to go about killing him off, but i have...... another option.

alright, so. say matt gets his ass kicked at the end of season 1 in the kinda way there isn't any coming back from. say fisk gets in a lucky shot or one of his henchmen fires at him, and matt goes down like a pile of bricks. angry and grieving, foggy makes sure fisk goes away for it, but that doesn't bring matt back, and without daredevil, the streets of hell's kitchen are starting to look a little darker now. enter: the mystic, hell's kitchen's resident medium slash avenging angel, who's getting a little sick of all the ghosts popping up in her city.

matt obviously sticks around haunting the place bc he's incapable of letting new york go, but he can't exactly do his whole..... beating bad guys up thing, being dead and all. but dora can do that for him. idk how exactly they'd meet but probably it would be while she was clearing out some criminal hideout or something, and the moment it becomes clear that she can see him, all bets are off. he starts calling out warnings to her whenever there's someone coming up to fight her that she hasn't noticed, and by the end she's like ok. thanks, dead guy. arent u the devil of hell's kitchen, though??

after that, he kinda starts hanging around her a lot, much to her displeasure, bc there's rly not all that much to do when you're dead, and even if he'd never admit it, he's lonely. he can't figure out why he's still around (is this purgatory? is this his punishment?) but dora at least can see him, maybe answer a few of his questions, even if she's pretty reluctant about it. she mostly ignores him in the beginning, bc she has a life, unlike some people, and she's trying to juggle that and her nighttime activities. matt's stubborn, though, and he has literally all of eternity to bother her, so eventually she caves n starts talking to him. slowly at first, making small talk w him while she makes her morning coffee or bitching to him under her breath about her boss, but eventually, they start having actual conversations. and he irritates her and she irritates him but she's all that he has, and he's the only person who could even come close to understanding her life now that she's a vigilante, so a bond forms between them.

she starts trying to help him figure out how to move on; they spend a lot of nights she's on patrol or fighting tossing ideas back and forth as to what his unfinished business is. he thinks maybe it's something to do w foggy and the argument they had abt daredevil, so dora goes outta her way to get in contact w him, but she can’t exactly explain what’s going on, unless she wants to out herself as the mystic. foggy is very suspicious about this strange lady who he once catches muttering to the air angrily, n he’s not happy abt her intruding on his life. 

n also i think as they start making more progress in their quest to help matt move on, dora realises that she doesn’t want him to go? n actually she quite likes having someone around who knows everything abt her n talks to her n makes her feel less lonely?? and on matt’s end he’s a bit scared about the idea of moving on bc he doesn’t know what the afterlife holds for him n genuinely thinks he might end up going to hell for what he’s done, plus he’s starting to really like dora n her dry humour n the way she understands what’s going on w him, so they both kind of. dance around the revelation that they might be more than friends

idk maybe she starts trying to get into resurrection for him the way she does in my canon??? WHO KNOWS HOW THIS WOULD END i just like thinkin bout it <3333 thank u for this question anon pls feel free to kiss me on the mouth

#🔫 DON'T click that read more i'm being embarrassing again #THANK U SO MUCH ANON U HAVE LITERALLY GIVEN ME SO MUCH TO THINK ABOUT. MANY THOUGHTS. HEAD FULL. #answered #anonymous #ch: vanja radovic #ch: dora penrose

[solasan]

Dora + Punisher

send me an OC + an alternate love interest for them!

dora penrose + frank castle:

omg this is a Very Interesting dynamic. i think things in canon are a bit tense between them once he figures out precisely what her powers entail (he's worried she's gonna tell him his family are still hanging around in ghost form, and he's also worried she's gonna tell him they're not) but even if they could move past it??? idk! she doesn't approve of his whole murdering schtick bc it just leaves more damn ghosts wandering around n bothering her, n i think being in a room w him (and thus w the dead people following him around) would give her a headache. 6/10 for pure sex appeal tho there's something very good abt a no-holds-barred murderer dating a literal necromancer

whomst is this Dora Penrose?? 👀

im six days late but im here let's go!!!! im putting this under a cut tho bc. yknow. marvel oc. embarrassing. all my cool mutuals look away pls ✌️

ok so miss eudora 'dora' penrose — otherwise known as the mystic — is hell's kitchen's second vigilante and a pain in matt murdock's ass

no seriously their first meeting went a lot like this:

anyway. she was born n raised in hell's kitchen; her parents (andrea & lou) were a low-income couple from one of the rougher areas, but her childhood was pretty happy!!!! her n her sister (leona) were very loved, whatever they lacked

except. yknow. dora can see ghosts. and has done since she was very young. i think probably her powers eventually culminate in temporary reanimation on top of the mediumship, and probably she gets tangled up in strange & wanda's shit, as a third sort of. magic user? in nyc?

she made the mistake of telling her family abt the ghosts when she was super young and after that she spent several years bouncing between therapists n psychiatrists. i think she was probably medicated for a little while? but im not 100% on that :/

uhhh had an imaginary friend as a kid that was actually the dead daughter of one of her neighbours. quite sad, quite sad. fucked her up for a bit, on top of the whole.... everything else

eventually she kind of just pretended she couldn't see ghosts anymore n was all cured, but they never rly went away. she got very good at lying. loves her family dearly but holds them at arm's length just bc she doesn't know. rly. how to be honest? with them?

anyway she worked very hard and eventually got into NYU on a scholarship. became a journalist; joined the new york bulletin. ben urich kinda took her under his wing as her mentor, so they were very close

and then. well. ben dies. as bens tend to do in marvel. and uhhh he doesn't haunt her which she's. kind of offended by. and basically the anger over his death n the pressure of having all these ghosts around her for so long eventually becomes too much and she decides, well, time to become a vigilante and get vengeance for some of these poor dead fuckers.

she doesnt kill!!!! she doesn't want to be haunted by more ghosts!!! but her methods are still. well. a lil questionable. her and matt tangle a couple times bc he sort of is like. why the fuck are u here and what are u doing.

(not all of her settled scores end violently!!! one old lady Moves On To The Other Side after dora rescues her cat from a tree!!! but yknow. some of them dont move on till she's broken a few bones, is all)

queen of frantically hate-fucking ur fellow vigilante on a rooftop after a near-death experience!!!!

anyway her n matt do become friends. eventually. sort of. it takes them a while. and on top of that they keep having a lot of near-misses out of masks where they almost meet but something gets in the way of it. the day they do finally meet, matt recognises her first

(she recognises him after a couple hours. look. u would never expect a mild-mannered blind lawyer to be the devil-horned dude who u sometimes fight or fuck in alleyways, ok?)

um yes. idk what else i have to add to this. if u read it all i love u <3

*twirls hair* d-? heh-- do .. 😳 dora???

if all of my OCs were in a dating sim whose route would u pick??

AAAA MISS DORA!!! she appreciates it <3 i think her route wouldnt necessarily b enemies-to-lovers but it'd be prickly. she's quiet n not particularly social n she's also... very paranoid. but!! if u break thru that, she's the queen of lowkey devotion. absolutely willing to raise the dead for u <3 and resurrect u if necessary. will probably try to get u into yoga and very smugly use her hands to correct ur hip positioning :) she's surprisingly tactile in general tbh but largely in like. small ways? like resting her knee against urs if ur sat together for example. get used to her talking to thin air tho; mittens the ghost cat and her are a package deal 😌
