After her meeting with Matt Murdock, which certain did not make her day any less stressful or complicated, Francine heads home to knock back a few shots of something alcoholic and then spend the most of the rest of her night hanging over a toilet bowl.

The next day, Rosalind isn't feeling any more inclined to listen to reason about accepting Fisk as a client, and since the 'Sharpe' in the name of their law firm most definitely does not refer to Francine, there's not a hell of a lot she can do about it - just suck it up and pretend that the thought of representing Wilson Fisk is the only reason she's feeling queasy today. Of course, she's assigned work on the case because her mother might as well get some use out of the very expensive education she paid for Francine to have. And if there's one thing that she is good at, it's doing the groundwork.

She spends most of the day familiarizing herself with the full details of the case and hiding in her office to avoid running into Rosalind again, which is only partially successful. Rosalind stops her on the way out to wrangle her into lunch tomorrow because they shouldn't let their little work disagreement come between them as mother and daughter - though, honestly, Francine suspects she's either about to be set up on a blind date with someone influential or other or get another reaming out. She's not looking forward to either of them, regardless.

So she's already stressed and a bit jumpy when she heads home, and when she sees the devil waiting for her in the shadows, she all but jumps out of her skin. "What the fuck?!"

Foggy Nelson’s life is a thing of Lifetime movies. Blinded as a child while saving someone else from being hit by a truck, then kidnapped for several years? She could’ve survived the rest of her life just by selling the rights to her story for an actual Lifetime film. Instead, she did a few interviews to sock some money away for college and years of extensive therapy and faded back into semi-obscurity. Worked hard, got into law school, opened a law firm with her best friend from college. Now, they save Hell’s Kitchen by taking on low-income clients and pro bono cases to represent people who need a voice in the justice system but don’t know how to speak for themselves. It’s inspiring.

It’s a lie. (It’s true.) (It’s complicated.)

This is absolutely not her fault, to get that out of the way immediately. One minute she's consulting with a once well-respected neurosurgeon who now hangs out in the world's best haunted house about some legal issues tangled up with his property, and the next she's tripping on his stupid cloak that doesn't seem to quite conform to the laws of gravity. She accidentally knocks some kind of weird amulet or something off a table in an attempt to not fall flat on her face, and then -

Well, she's still in the world's best haunted house. But instead of standing next to Dr. Strange, she's staring shell-shocked at a guy who could practically be her brother. Dr. Strange re-appears before the sheer what the fuck factor can set in to full effect, which thank god, because even if he's utterly confused about their presence, he's quick to invite them into the parlor for some soothing tea while he examines the amulet that was still clutched in Foggy's hand.

The deal is, apparently, that the amulet is a kind of magical escape hatch. Once activated, it scans nearby parallel universes for the closest safe one and sends you there for a period of time. It's like the world's weirdest Kit Kat break. There's a timer on it, lasting somewhere between three to four weeks, after which it will automatically return her to her universe. Bringing the guy to her location - Franklin P. Nelson, holy shit, apparently her counterpart on this Earth - was the magical equivalent of a glitch, grabbing two Foggy Nelsons instead of one. After explaining all this, Dr. Strange asks if there's anyone they want contacted, and they both say Matt Murdock at pretty much the same time. Stephen leaves the room to go call the Matt Murdock of this world and explain the situation and then to see if he can get in contact with the Stephen Strange of her world to pass on the message that she's okay.

And then there's two Foggy Nelsons sitting in a room with cups of tea that magically refresh themselves every so often. So that's... something. "I feel like we should be comparing notes or something."

[continuation from here.]

The workday feels longer than usual, partly because Matt's right there and there's been this massive change in their relationship that they barely had any time to think about or talk about and partly because Karen takes it upon herself to affect some good-natured teasing in the wake of her bosses' new relationship. It doesn't help that she keeps flip-flopping between giddy excitement that this is finally a thing that's happening and nervousness because of the Daredevil-sized elephant in the room that she keeps trying to shove out of her thoughts so she can just be happy about this for a while before they have to deal with the really difficult stuff.

It comes to an end eventually, though, and Karen makes a point of wishing them a good night before she leaves. Foggy's tidying away some papers and things when Matt shows appears in her doorway, asking what she wants to do for dinner. Instead of talking, she crosses the distance between them and kisses him like she's been wanting to for most of the day.

She pulls away eventually, just enough to finally answer. "Takeout."

Since this has come up a couple times, the proper ooc announcement post: I'm having a medical procedure on the 20th. I'll probably be on a short hiatus/slowatus depending on how I feel afterwards and what/how much I need to do to not fall too behind on schoolwork, but my plan for ongoing threads will be to pretty much consider them on hold for a bit and tag when I'm feeling up to it, unless the rp partner wants to just drop them.

in other, happier news, please enjoy this, the world's most Foggy Jenna Fischer gif:


EDIT: post-op update, I am alive, no longer feel like I want to be dead, and am on 100% less narcotics than expected so might be doing some tagging around
