Just want you to know I’ve re read this at least once a year for the past 6 years now and it reignites my will to live, truly one of the best character pieces ever written. Sarah is wonderful and complicated, Matt is just perfect, the story is amazing and your writing is phenomenal. Keep writing, even if just for yourself. I’d read your grocery list.

coming here after my third read of this precious story :'D you have no idea what it means to me! i love how you loop together such well-crafted humor and subtle character development / intimacy that builds up into a normalcy over time. Jason is actually one of my favorite characters because he's so maniacally stoic that every time he starts being scary/offputting/alarming to other characters, i can't help but giggle a little bit lol
i would also like to say with full confidence that this story is better than the Daredevil show itself-and me saying that means a lot because Daredevil is and has been my favorite show for years upon years now. your world-building is undeniable and i absolutely love how you handle Matt, Sarah, and Karen's trauma. you write in a way that speaks to some topics that i've gone through personally and it's hard to believe that any wounds i have, especially around intimacy, are un-healable after witnessing how Sarah and Matt build up trust (and find their way back to it) time after time. i live for their quiet displays of connection. there's something so reassuring about being able to experience all of my emotions in the safety of Matt and Sarah's relationship, without doing it with someone in real life who could very well break my heart and not provide the protectiveness that Matt gives to Sarah. i saw a quote that says "what doesn't kill you makes you weird at intimacy" and that has definitely been on my mind a lot as i've re-read all of the chapters where Sarah struggles with Ronan flashbacks. seeing how Matt handles it was just cushy healing gooeyness for my own soul and i'm so grateful i got to experience those scenes.
seriously, i can see that all of us in the reviews love you and your writing and your characters, but you deserve a million times more flowers than any of us are capable of giving you. this story is entertainment to the highest caliber-you're a master at blending imagery, humor, high stakes, trauma, trust, healing, and SO much more. Sarah/Lauren and Matt/Foggy's friendships are such a pleasant highlight as well. i loved the point at the fundraiser where drunk Lauren interrupts Sarah dancing with Greg after he saved her from Todd. Lauren says, "I'm jealous!" and it was Sarah's hand she took, not Greg's 3 All of your OCs really do feel like they have a solid place in the universe. i've been re-watching the show lately and I have to keep reminding myself that Sarah is not in it
i also saw on your profile that you've recently experienced a loss. i'm sending my condolences and any healing vibes you may need 3

She became her mother in a way, but developed more healthily "past" that.
...guess she's half fired. Jason thinks she's plausibly deniability-y sabotaging him for Vanessa but as shown in the party that lady is not reliable outside of her Fisk affairs. When that footage is out he'll be out for her head no question.
Things are tense already so I'm tempted to wait for chapter 49 before encountering the cliffhanger of the next chapter. Decisions decisions.
Thanks for the art! Later!

Lauren meeting better than Sarah's though finished off on a sour note.
I'm almost tempted to say that she should give Jason the Vanessa phone to get back in positive graces and reduce suspicion.(After getting in it ideally) Bad idea if only because he might smack her for taking so long in his current state.
They can say they left town from the recent attacks pretty easily as a reason.
Least deadly cliffhanger for them. Probably least.

Yikes. That could've gone better. Matt gets relieved about Sarah during the chapter and then get hyper stressed at the end.
... would've tried to see if I could get away with just saying that Daredevil was at the party haha. Mention the witnesses who got different Daredevil treatment. Probably wouldn't have been enough at that point tho. :L
Rough dilemma. I'd say Sarah has learned to take the big secret seriously sense the start of all things. In the end she did tell though despite that learning. She's been having the cards against her though. Though I'm not sure if Matt is quite appreciating that her upkeep of the secret is tested way more aggressively than say that of Claire.
If he plays this approach incorrectly Lauren might feel validated to snitch on the scary Daredevil.

Todd the clod. At least in regards to dating anyway.
... hopefully that breakdown that guy got will keep him knocked out for a while or not remember Sarah trying to help.
Either she's dead or will need a wheelchair or something now.
Hopefully none of those darts got someone in the face.
Matt's heart rate goes up as hers slows down.
Action scenes were pretty good to me. I was able to follow and visualize them. You keep track and noted the left and rights and all that.

Felt it last chapter, yeah there's an unsettling feeling with types like Vanessa who act so gentile while having their hands in and/or bring surrounded by brutality. Especially with someone their interaction with.
Sneaky party corner flirting.
Ah the outside perspective from one not in the know even a little. Understandable bits with the caveat that Cecilia is clearly someone who doesn't afford much grace to others. Some care for how other's are being affected hidden in her rant.
Gotta be careful with obvious exits. I wonder if the way Allison went to smoke had a fire escape?

Communication high score. Nice.
Don't do drugs kids. Well the gas vandals are left be for now.
Petty Jason. "Yeah my secretary was just feeling quirky yesterday".
Hm...I suspect they'll be a new reason for no one to think Matt is Daredevil at the event. Hopefully she doesn't try to handle the imposter like with the syringe incident.

Ah so nice to read this again. I've been... undisciplined in reading updates on here.
Gotta give everyone their just reviews in case this site doesn't make a recovery.
A comparatively calm series of events for the gang here. Says how crazy Sarah's life has been! A lull before things get wild, as indicated by Jason's worsening casual violence. Well, more like he can't even pretend at casual so just let's his actions do the talking.
No time to even mention Vanessa but he's taking reasons as excuses right now
Uh oh. Romance fumble. Still is progress in a way of being more aware of themselves to prevent ultimately worse outcomes. Communication delays are shortening too.
Not many ways to delay Fisk visit than Vanessa getting distracted by something else.

I think this is my first time leaving a review on your book, but I have been reading and re-reading it for so many years now.
The way you write the characters and have structured this story, it genuinely feels like it should've been the plot line for Season 2.
I have laughed and cried along with Sarah, rooting for her and crossing my fingers that she winds up okay; sighing and praying that Matt shows himself more grace as he doubts his character and decisions. I got butterflies when the two finally talked things out and began to trust and love each other.
I know that you have had it rough the past few years, I have too, in a medical sense, so I hope that life starts to take a turn for the better for you.
I also want to commend you for keeping up with this phenominal story for so long, I can't tell you how many abandoned stories I come across (which is fair, it is a stressful thing at times), so, as a long-term reader, thank you!
I can't wait to read whatever you have planned next, hopefully it is with a happy, non-cliffhanger-y ending lol

Hi, I don't know if you will see this, but I just wanted to let you know that this will forever be my favourite fanfic. I have read and re-read this countless times since 2015. Almost 10 years have gone by, and I haven't read any other fanfic, from any other fandom, that comes even a little bit close to this masterpiece. I hope that you finish your story someday. No matter how long it takes, I hope you never give up on this.
