it’s impossible for someone like her to not know exactly who he is. jessica got mixed up in some bad shit here and there with the p.i. work that she did and usually excused herself from it before she could get in too deep, or to the point where she really had to do something about it. this had been one of those moments where she was just on the edge of skirting out. that didn’t seem like it mattered anymore. vigilantes don’t bother her. some considered her one, even if she had limited her scope to kilgrave. matt was one. but she was pretty sure both her own and daredevil’s public perception was better than his was.
“i guess i should offer to buy you a drink,” she commented lowly, giving out an airy scoff and shaking her head slightly. “halfway across hell’s kitchen for nothing.”

a small , gloved hand rises in silent command & unsullied soldiers relinquish their grip from the thief’s curled hair & broad shoulders. lithe limbs uncross , as the mother of dragons lifts herself from her seat. dark dress billows behind her as she approaches the criminal. side glance & the two guards shuffle a few steps to the side. stagnant gaze remains staring forward , but her voice bellows down to the man brought in before her , to face his JUDGEMENT by the queen. ❛ stand up. ❜ she commands. ❛ you’ll have to forgive the welcome. but when my soldiers see misconduct , they report it to me. you chose an awfully unlucky place to break in. were you aware of my being here ? ❜ @punishir

tucks her in, then thinks about something for a long, long time. it has his mind in shreds. then, finally, he leans over and gently kisses her forehead.
random asks . always accepting !!
( i fell in love with the boy in the back of an alley, smelling of smoke and gunfire, but his fingers fit so nicely between the notches of my spine, and his kiss tastes like war and longing and home. )
doleo, dolere. when drifting afloat sows seeds between ribs, but the garden growing inside this chest is suffocating; so make them out of wax instead. carve body out of marble, all flesh and bone and marrow, let the blood spill out onto the floor, seep between the cracks in the hardwood. snow blankets the world in white forgetfulness, binds the heart crimson, feeding what little life left to the dry tubers. under the brown fog of winter dawn, mildew spreads like a disease, charred tendrils wrapping around limbs to keep them immobile. a kingdom of stone where stone is the heart too, beating only in the echo of the wardrum.
the universe does so love a good tragedy. take, for instance, a handful of stardust and scatter it across barren land. nothing grows here, and yet the day breaks anyway, washing ashore all the wreckage. he is no stranger to heartache ——— this atlas, this man made wolf, who cares so little for how sharp his teeth are. her own anguish sounds with the howls into the night. like stained glass, when pieced together to reveal something beautiful. and yet, what is left of her soul to give is split at the seams. so tainted by heliotrope poison, mouth overflowing with grave dirt and holy wine. still she bares her throat to him, uncovers her chest, trust weighted in grams against the fear of blood staining her hands. he takes the heart she presses into his palm anyway. accepts the offering, still beating and sputtering blood.
she’s fallen asleep at her desk again. it is not unusual to find jessica asleep in odd places, stranger still that the uncomfortable chair he lifts her up from now. exhaustion hits at random, when sleep deprived brain finally commands the body to shut off, and there is little left to do then crash where she is. the gravitational shift barely registers, but she huddles into the warmth, forever seeking the heat he exudes.
what would they say ——— the people who look at him and only see monster, only see the blood on his hands ——— if they saw him like this ?? the punisher is myth: bedtime story for unruly children, the boogeyman lurking in the shadows. he is cautionary tale, a warning for the man who leaves nothing but wreckage in his path, like his touch alone could sap away the life from breathing beings. herald of death, seated atop a pale horse. frank castle is another matter altogether. few have seen this. fewer still are alive.
once upon a time, love hadn’t felt like a noose around her throat, like knives between her ribs. it hadn’t felt like the blade of the guillotine perilously hanging above her by a thread. it burns. she should have known that loving him would feel like the coming of spring
soon enough, the rocking motions cease, and she is enveloped by softness. a moment passes in which time stands still, bated breath keeping at bay the errant pace of rabbit heart. she does not see him, but can sense him all around her, hazy and soft through sleep muddled awareness. and then the shadow moves closer, and she feels lips brush against her forehead. her chest feels painfully tight; he touches her with so much care, so gently, when she’s anything but deserving of reverence. knows, however, that voicing such thoughts would be counterproductive, dismissed with a snort, so she keeps herself as still as she can, keeping up the facade of slumber. afraid that any jarring motion would have the fragile moment shatter between them. but he pulls away much too soon. and, in an action which stems from the unreserved boldness that only being near conscious provides, fingers reach out to snatch at his wrist.
eyes remain shut, although pretence would be futile, but her nose scrunches in displeasure, and she tugs at his arm ever so slightly. even cocooned into the piles of blankets as she is, she still gravitates towards him, like a comet pulling into his orbit. longing for his nearness. for the safety his arms around her provide. “ stay . . . ?? ”
i'm proud of you.
ANOTHER TORN ENVELOPE SITS on the counter , a glossy letter held betwixt pale palms from which dark ink proclaims her welcome to the UNIVERSITY OF STANFORD . it’s the latest in a series of similar post to be received by her , but certainly one of the most exciting to date . Stanford is her chance to get away . her chance to start fresh without the lingering ghosts of trauma hiding ‘round seemingly every corner . in california she won’t be veronica sawyer –- SURVIVOR . in california she can be veronica sawyer castle , UP - AND - COMING WRITER . one day , even , perhaps a poet laureate !
FRECKLE -- DUSTED FEATURES BEAM , dark eyes crinkling at the corners with the pure joy at such a prospect . that elation is halted , however , a moment later when those eyes lift to seek the gaze of the man they so resemble . HE’S PROUD , as he said , yes . but she can’t shake the thought that a new weight has settled upon his shoulders . unoriginal as it might be , he’d always so reminded her of ATLAS . on other’s lips and in other’s pen the analogy seems so flat to her now –- now that she knows what the WEIGHT OF THE WORLD really looks like , and what it can truly do to a person . how it can break them down , and the astonishing strength it takes not to BUCKLE . no one knows that burden like the man before her . no one has carried it longer than her father .
SO DOESN’T SHE OWE IT TO HIM –- doesn’t the world he carries owe it to him –- to lift even an ounce of that weight when possible ? to let him breathe easier , if only for a few moments ? after all that he’s sacrificed , surely she can make some sacrifices too .
❝ THANKS , DAD . ❞ soft timbre finally sounds as eyes fall back to the letter . ❝ but I already decided where I’m going to go . N Y U offered me a full ride too , and it’d be a lot less of a hassle to move a few blocks to a dorm than across the country . not to mention their writing program kicks ass . I’m gonna be a bobcat ! ❞

darling, dearest, dead. canopy of crimson turns sky amaranth. there was a time when breathing didn’t feel like ingesting the sun; simpler times, made so much simpler by the lack of articulation to sorrow. now, death clings to every pore, allowing for little air to permeate collapsing lungs. there’s blood coating trembling hands, blood tasting copper and foreign on her tongue. costa speaks, but she only nods dumbly, mind far away. it’s not long before they release her into the wild jungle of concrete. and yet nowhere feels safe --------- each corner reveals more pulsating mauve bruise, each passing stranger stares dead back at her.
in all fairness, she doesn’t know how she got here. remembers vaguely having been here maybe once before. breath comes out in staggering pants, muscles aching in that particular way they always do after flight. she feels weightless and weighted down all the same, like the galaxy had caved in on top of her. like the world is going to end with the force of her grief. a step forward, then another, until whole body collapses against the door. shock still renders vocal chords immobile, holds body captive in rigor mortis, and yet still she finds some semblance of strength left for a weak knock.
