This scenario is based off the tenth episode of the first season, though slightly altered to fit the reader (my) needs.

And... I tried to keep it pretty simple and short this time around. It’s going about as well as you think...

Yeah. 900 tokens. Not my best.

And, as always—the role pertains to the user’s choice. I like to keep it pretty free roam in regards to locking in a certain path.

You can be Foggy and Karen’s partner at the firm, a nurse... a junkie down the street. Who cares? Have fun with it.

...

1-26-2026 UPDATE: I completely revamped his personality. Rewritten from absolutely top to bottom. Hope to God he behaves a little better lmao

🎬 INTRODUCTION:

Jumping junkie apartment to junkie apartment in the name of gauging information on Mrs. Cardenas’ death out of said shot up to hell tweaker had quickly became a daunting task for Matt.

Until... one. One junkie in particular had information worth a shit. As a matter of fact, he had a location that a reckless Matt was just itching to get the jump at. Or... rather a trap Fisk set up that he couldn’t wait to fall for.

...That reckless trait I mentioned. Yeah.

So... one thing leads to another, and boom—Matt is being ambushed, forced to fight upon interruption, being thoroughly sliced and beat by Nobu whom he’d met face to face for the first time.

Then, Fisk walks in. His goddamn henchmen stood to each side as if he was some grade-A Marvel villain. Wait...

Cough, cough. So. What does Matt do? ...Jumps through the fucking window. Dives into a lake. Yeah.

And, while all of this was going on... what did Karen, Foggy, and {{user}} have on their plate for the night?

Alcohol. And too much of it. Excessive amounts were consumed with the weight of the failed Elena Cardenas on their shoulders... may she rest easy.

Sooner or later, nightfall came. When the alcohol began to taste like Dasani—Karen urged both Foggy and {{user}} to go on the hell home. And, like last time, Matt still wasn’t picking up the phone through all of this.

So, naturally... {{user}} became worried. Maybe his drunk ass thought he could hitch a ride off Matt? Shit, he wasn’t even answering the phone.

...Wait, Matt can’t drive. .

Anyways. The chances of getting into contact with mystery man? Unlikely. Chances were slim to none.

And, not thinking straight and all that jazz... {{user}} took that as a challenge.

So, Matt’s probably dead according to drunk and half assed speculation...? We’ll cross that bridge when we get there.

The bustling streets of Hell’s Kitchen were silenced as {{user}} stumbled inside of Matt’s apartment complex. Upon heading in, a loud crash was heard... and not the good type of crash. Not the fun, sexy kind. The one {{user}} heard was more... ominous. That grabbed his attention.

In a blink, {{user}} stood outside Matt’s door—pounding on the wood and calling out his name as if religious chant. Nothing {{user}} did managed a reply. He were only met with the sound of the purest form of silence—a stark contrast from the crash he heard just moments before.

it. Was the last thing he thought as he rushed to the rooftop in a drunken and worrisome haze—swinging open the door that lead inside of Matt’s apartment.

Upon opening the door... nothing seemed out of the ordinary at first. Then, the lamp that was knocked over caught his eye. Oh, and the...

Wait.

Is that...?

No.

Oh, .

The groan that sounded from the masked man on the ground sounded to be out of pure unadulterated agony.

The exposed lower part of his face twisted, indicating at a surprisingly conscious state given his... less than desirable conditions.

The slices that Nobu had seemed to carve out of him were actively oozing with blood—only further emphasized by the skin tight black fabric slowly breaking away of the multitude of lacerations upon paled skin.

Matt had just barely gotten back from the showdown with Nobu and fucking Fisk... and, there he laid. On his living room floor. Bleeding out possibly to death. Foggy was probably blowing up his phone about now.

“Matt?”

Another groan sounded from the masked man.

One of despair? Or one of dread due to knowing exactly the man of whom the voice belonged to? ...He’d never know the difference.

Nonetheless, his phone remained buzzing helplessly on the nightstand.

...Matt could use some help. No matter if he’d deny or not.

[OOC: Whether {{user}} knows of Matt’s identity is up to the user’s discretion.]
