A devil and his executioner

in this house we love three things: one (1) catholic disaster, the man who keeps trying to shoot him, and foggy nelson. 20• he/him

[franksredevil]

Just a little flip of faith :3

Matt flea-ridden stray cat murdock is out here, walking through Hell’s Kitchen all modest in his little suit and tie like:

≽(•⩊ •マ≼ “Just a humble blind man. Please excuse me while I tap politely through the urban landscape.”

until he turns the corner and drops his cane like its a prop and goes full parkour jesus mode. He starts climbing like a feral victorian alley cat- like a guilt powered gymnast. HE IS GLIDING THROUGH SIN.

like sir??

you go into courtrooms and are like “im just doing what I can your honour /ᐠ > ˕ <マ ₊˚⊹♡ ” AND THEN BRO IS SWAN DIVING OFF BUILDINGS- whispering things like “Forgive me father, for I am SPEED.”

bet hes climbing buildings and fire escapes whispering “Justice doesnt sleep… neither do I :3”

“if god sees me I hope he is into parkour (•˕ •マ.ᐟ ”

ദ്ദി（• ˕ •マ) “If I make it to that next rooftop, maybe I’ll finally be absolved… oof–my knee–“

Matts like “im not a hero, Im a man in the dark. but maybe.. maybe thats enough ᓚᘏᗢ”

coming back to the rooftop scene because it is so unhinged and silly I want to bite drywall.

Matt is perched tied to the chimney, battered, bleeding, and instead of trying to escape, this man decides: now is the time for a moral ted talk.

matts like:

😿 “Theres hope, Frank... theres always hope. :3” 😿 “Theres a light in everyone, even in the worst of them! :33” 😿 “Please believe me, Frank... pretty please... for the soul of Hell’s Kitchen... meow meow...”

BRO. you are chained to a chimney in your little red suit, your head is bleeding AND YOU ARE CATHOLIC MONOLOGUING AT THE PUNISHER.

“Please Frank, even a murderer still has a spark of good!! mrreeow :3” And Franks like “I put that spark out before it burns anyone else.”

Matt, literally vibrating with moral kitten energy: “But I see it in you, Frank! Thats why Im here! That’s why I’m chained to a chimney arguing theology with a man who has seventeen guns strapped to him!! :3 meow.”

[franksredevil]

Matt “I’m fine” Murdock: the meow meow wet Catholic who insists he can save everyone even as he limps into traffic and cries about morality mid-punch

Frank “I don’t miss” Castle: a growling bear-dog of a man whose love language is war crimes and posthumous respect

Frank stomps around like:

🧍‍♂️ I protect whats mine. I kill what hurts them. I dont cry.

Meanwhile Matt, dripping blood, whispering from a rooftop like: 🙀 Maybe if I just believe harder the criminals will un-stab people. Also I havent slept in three days. Would you like to talk about atonement while I collapse gently in an alley?

And yet somehow. Somehow. They work. Because the dog wont let anyone else hurt the cat. And the cat keeps licking the dogs bullet wounds and telling him he still has a soul, actually.

[franksredevil]

just two guys exploring moral philosophy and BDSM at the same time

Frank Castle assembling a war crime at leisure while calling Matt “Red” like HE ALREADY ESTABLISHED A PET NAME FOR HIM and Matts just chained to the chimney like:

“omg is that a custom upper receiver?”

“youre catholic?? oh my god SAME :3”

the way Matt is so eager to latch onto that shared catholicism-

Matt: Do you go to mass :3?

Frank: once

Matt: ohhh okay so you used to believe in something! :3 Maybe I can work with that. Maybe I can SAVE you.

Matts like “youre like me… but you fell didnt you..”

and Franks like: No red, I jumped.

its catholic guilt meets tactical guilt. its parkour kitten meets military dog.
