about:
This is a sideblog, and I follow back from my main @grimmusings. Please direct IMs there, since it's easier for me to keep all my messages on one blog. It's also easier to start interactions with me there, where I regularly post open starters and meme prompts. For a full list of rules, see my main. Honesty hour questions will largely be answered IC and treated as anonymous unless signed by a muse.
All details vary based on verse, but in general I write Frank based on the Daredevil/Punisher shows, with occasional elements or connections from 616 comics pulled in as needed. Please keep in mind that in this timeline, he is not a Vietnam veteran, but served in both Iraq and Afghanistan.
Please note before interacting that Frank is very hostile to known villains and will react accordingly, up to and including attacking or trying to kill them, but I will check with you before either so we can better plot things out. Likewise, if you prefer to plot Frank's death, I'm happy to work with you on that. Being an antihero has consequences, but communication is key. He does not kill innocents or heroes (and canonically won't even take a swing at Captain America).
wanted connections:
This is by no means a comprehensive list, and I can roll with most muses as far as basic interactions. I’m happy to ship Frank with other Marvel characters and OCs/fandom crossovers based on chemistry, but unless they’re on my OTP list, they need plotting and interaction first. There is never any pressure to ship with me, even if they’re on my list.
OTPs: Maria Castle, Karen Page, Matt Murdock Family: I adore Dad!Frank, but he's understandably going to have a lot of trauma attached to that, so please run any canon/OC kids by me first Other: Steve Rogers, Billy Russo, John Hartigan, Nancy Callahan
default verses:
canon (+/-): Any events that take place within the Daredevil/Punisher timelines.
alt!postblip: A merging of the shows into the greater MCU, where Frank has just watched half the world be snapped out of existence and then returned.
semper fidelis: Any events that take place while Frank is with the Marines or the Cerberus Squad.
multiverse!madness: Various comics universes collide, whether Marvel/DC/etc. have always existed on the same Earth, or other-dimension shenanigans are at work. Duplicate friendly!
verses by request only:
I'm happy to write these, but since they're more specific AUs, I don't default on them for asks/memes. Please feel free to request them.
sin city: An AU set in the Sin City universe, where Frank is working as a detective with the Basin City police department when his family are brutally slaughtered by convicts he once put away. Almost two years later, the case is declared a mistrial, setting him on the path as the Punisher.
twd!verse: A zombie apocalypse AU that more or less follows a Walking Dead timeline. Frank's family was killed by humans at the start of the outbreak, which sets him on the path as the Punisher. When he's not taking out the trash, he lives alone in a remote, sustainable cabin surrounded by traps.
