ilikedaredevil:vera-invenire:repmet:Foggy + connectionsI love this bit of characterization, especially in contrast to Matt. Matt’s a reserved guy with one (1) friend, but he still feels this deep connection to the people in his neighborhood - a connection that I am 90% sure comes mostly from the fact that he can’t turn his senses off. He knows and is connected to everything that’s going on around him, he can’t help it. But it’s essentially a one way connection. Matt knows Hell’s Kitchen but Hell’s Kitchen doesn’t know him, not really. Matt cares and he gets involved through Nelson and Murdock (re: through Foggy), but I feel like he keeps his distance when it comes to, you know. Actually interacting with people and making meaningful connections.But Foggy, on the other hand? Hell’s Kitchen definitely knows Foggy. And he clearly knows them - he knows their names, what they do, what they want, how to talk to them, how their kids are doing in school. And I think it’s really interesting that, even if they aren’t on screen, so many people are shown to be willing to talk to Foggy and give him information and do him favors. It’s a reciprocal relationship with the community that I really don’t think Matt has on his own. Matt’s the guy who swoops in and saves you in your moment of crisis, then vanishes into the dark, leaving you saved but on your own. Foggy’s the guy you call in the morning, who you know will lend a hand while you piece your life back together because it’s Foggy. And everyone knows Foggy. Hey Foggy! Looking good! <3 -- source link
