Matt Murdock
first impression: probably the first time i ever encountered matt murdock was with the ben affleck daredevil movie from 2003, but we're not counting that, SO. it was during my black widow deep dive years ago, and i kinda thought he was a self-righteous jerk fhdhdh which... isn't wrong.... my first impression of him in the tv adaptation was the first episode of the defenders with that really good courtroom scene, and i loved how compassionate he was, and that's what got me first interested in the character.
impression now: idiot baby boy baby who's trying his best but is also a hot mess, please calm down
favorite moment: "you're under arrest, matt"/"objection" gjfhdh
but no really, i'm gonna jump back to the netflix show for a second, but: "you don't get to destroy who i am" from the finale. LOVED THAT.
idea for a story: matt gets some therapy. i know he's sorta getting prison therapy in the current run, but i want the story to be, specifically, about matt getting therapy. he needs it desperately.
unpopular opinion: idk if i really hang out in this corner enough to know, but some of daredevil fandom seems to justify some of his behavior and thinks he's always in the right? just because matt thinks he's in the right doesn't mean he always is, you know? he's a complicated, flawed, and often messy person who makes some bad choices.
favorite relationship: foggy; no matter how you view their relationship, romantic or platonic, they are literally straight up married.
favorite headcanon: matt has a playlist of the greatest hits of britney spears that he listens to often. it gets him pumped up to beat on bags at the gym. he's also a #freebritney campaigner and has a lot of legal arguments to make for the movement.
send me a character, and i will answer these questions!
