Summary
Three weeks after Foggy wrote "Nelson, Murdock, and Page" on a new napkin, Matt, Karen, and Foggy are starting the new firm in the upstairs of Nelson's Meats. That means Matt can't put off moving back into his apartment any longer—an apartment that he may or may not have told Karen and Foggy he moved back into weeks ago.
It turns out, trying to sort out your affairs and come back to your old life after having a building fall on top of you, spending months recovering in a church basement, and being homeless isn't that easy. It's a little harder still when you're mentally unwell, sleep deprived, and blind.
Also... maybe Matt should have taken the whole hallucination thing more seriously.

Summary
The thing about Matt is he’s either going to be Catholic and impossible about utterly everything, or absolutely nothing, which makes it very difficult to predict which way he’s gonna go.
“Everything comes back to guilt with him,” he tells Karen on a night out while Matt is running on rooftops wearing the superhero equivalent of a gimp suit. “He’s probably guilty about how he ties his shoelaces. Or the type of syrup he puts on his pancakes.”
“I mean, maple, right?”
“Matt likes blueberry.”
Karen clicks her tongue. “Shameful.”
“It's not that bad.”
“He should feel guilty for that.”
“Point is,” Foggy says so he doesn't fall into the trap of defending Matt’s syrup choices. “I think I have to learn how to beat people up.”

Summary
there's something wrong with me
and it reads nothing like poetry“So,” Matt says once they’re seated. “What brings you here, Miss…?”
“Douglas.” The girl coughs. “Lucy Douglas. Call me Lucy. Please.”
“Okay, Lucy,” Matt says. “What brings you here?”
There’s a long pause, and Matt is about to ask again when Lucy blurts, “Were you born Madeline Murdock?”
Matt freezes.
“That’s not… that hasn’t been my– my name,” he swallows, “in a very long time.”
“But– but that’s what you were named,” Lucy says. “At first.”
“At first,” Matt echoes warily. He isn’t sure what to think. His birth certificate was changed. Very few people know. Foggy didn’t find out for over a year; Karen still doesn’t know. “Why are you–”
“And you had a baby.”
Loosely based on an old prompt on the kinkmeme.

He should have listened to Stick when he had the chance. Easing out of the friendships he’d inadvertently made would have been worlds easier than this.
Or, better yet, he could have avoided ever making friends in the first place.

Matt's sense of dread grew. "…How did you know?"
"You mean," Foggy began, the smug intensifying. "Who ratted you out?"
"Names and addresses."
"Negatory, mon capitan," Foggy chirped. "I can't reveal a source."

Summary
The work wears him thin but he can’t stop. Not now. Not ever. This is who he is. The Devil of Hell’s Kitchen. He doesn’t have anyone to pretend for anymore. (The freedom isn’t as liberating as he’d thought it would be, leaves a bitter aftertaste in his throat, but Matt swallows that with the rest of his regrets and carries on just as he always has.)
[Post-S2. The new year brings Matt lost friends, old foes, and second chances.]

Summary
Fisk gets put away again, and it feels like that should be the end of it, but it’s not. Of course it’s not. The FBI needs a win. Who better to take that out on than the lawyers who exposed their corruption.
I am not Daredevil, Matt says so many times in so many spaces that he almost believes it.
His ability to maintain a concept of self was difficult enough before this: this new judgment day, this thing that has fractured him beyond what he thought was possible. He feels like he’s been dropped into the ocean, all his limbs weighted with stones, unable to find which way is up and which way is down, which way is surface and which way is gone.
Later, he'll try to think about it objectively, distance himself from this new kind of violence that inhabits his body. He'll grapple with the defined edges of his constantly shifting memory, carefully delineate the before from the after, turn his conclusion over and over in his mind. As it turns out, he observes, living feels a lot like drowning.
[An exploration of trauma and memory, of what it might look like if Matt's identity as Daredevil was exposed. Prison fic. Post-S3.]
