[A little early, even, because she might need a shot or two before they meet up. Some situations just kind of call for it, like meeting up with your formerly dead former partner in law and... kind of former best friend? Current? She's not sure where they stand right now. They never really patched things up entirely after dissolving Nelson and Murdock, and then she helped him get himself almost killed, and--yeah.
[Matt had a lot to make up for and he was going to start now. How? He would think of it as it came to him. Not too long after they finished their text conversation, he arrived at their old watering hole, finding a high top, after buying a beer]
[And she'll just be sidling on over to him so he doesn't have to blow his 'totally a normal blind person' cover by somehow being able to find her in a pretty well-occupied bar.] Come here often? [Because the best way to deal with a relationship in an awkward place is to greet Matt with a light-hearted come-on. She makes such good life decisions, she really does.]
LMK if you're on board, ship or no ship/Gen. Up to you.
[Matt grins at her flirtatious line. Does he like it? Would it be awkward to say he loved his best friend more than a friend? She was with him through some of his worst and best times]
Yeah, I've grown to love this hole in the wall. How ya doin', Fog? [He wants to say he's missed her, but maybe that's too soon?]

matt/foggy is otp and marvel can't convince me they're not already canon.
Same old, same old. [Best friend back from the dead, etc. etc. She brushes her fingers against his arm and steers him towards a table where they can talk with... well, relative privacy, it is Josie's.] What about you?
I don't feel the same way, but I will RP it with a Rule 63 Foggy!
Yeah, same. Just getting my life back together, letting everyone know I'm alive. [he chuckles, taking a long sip of his beer, noticing the touch to his arm. It feels nice.]
[Oh boy, yeah. Foggy winces but doesn't bother to narrate it for him--not that important.] ...Yeah. Sorry about letting your apartment go, but you were kind of... [missing, assumed dead? She just lets that trail off.] Do you need any help with any of that?
[He listens, nodding. He thought he was dead too...but then he wasn't. This was just one hell of a fucked up time.]
Well, how were you to know? This is just...so fucked up. I'm sorry, Fogs. I don't know where to begin. How do I get my own identity back? Practice law again? [What remains unsaid, is becoming Daredevil again...if he wanted to, that is. Truly wanted to.]
Well, lucky for you, I know a pretty good attorney who can probably figure out how to resurrect himself legally. And another one who's willing to help. [There's probably precedent. It's not exactly her specialty, but they'll figure it out.]
I can't promise Hogarth right now, but we can work on it. [And she nudges his leg with her foot because Matt. Stop panicking.] And I wasn't expecting you to pay me.
Yeah, I guess so. Stranger things have happened, I guess. At least I'm not an immortal ninja without a heart beat. [He scowls, thinking of Elektra. It's amazing that his heart is still beating]
That is still one of the weirder it could always be worses I've heard. [Seriously, what the fuck are their lives. Foggy did not sign up for this shit.]
[Matt laughs] Yeah, I can't believe I said it either. But, that's my reality. Who would ever have thought? Damn. [Hell, Matt didn't either, but if that's what it took? So be it. He hopes this part of his life resolved itself and he could move on. Hopefully with his best friend in his life again.]
for good_catholic_boy
I'm glad we're both heavily invested in each other's continued existence. speaking of, how are you feeling?
Where do we want to take this from after Defenders? Before?
depends on how sad you want her to be.
was that an actual okay or a Matt Murdock 'my lung could be collapsing and I'd still say I'm okay' okay?
Post, if you want. AU of course. Don't know how they'll play it.
What do you say we meet up for a drink or something? Like old times?

Hey, whatever floats your boat! I don't hate! :)

So, Jeri Hogarth and her firm are going to work on this? I don't even have any money to pay you. [Matt was starting to panic, he was truly no one.]

Right, right. [he swallows, uneasy] It's just that right now, legally, I don't exist. This is just so fucking weird.

Sorry, he's angsty and doesn't like Elektra very much...AU
