The Last Goodbye by @stripedscribe, art by @amazing-spiderling Summary: Matt Murdock always assumed he'd go down in a blaze of glory. At the end of a blade, in a hail of gunfire, or perhaps even at the hands of Spider-Woman herself. What New York's kingpin never imagined was that he might one day lose his life to something as soft and silent as the poison of a flower. Or as impossible as falling in love.

Cottontails and Lawyers by @wolfnprey, art by @catholicism-and-comics Summary: it starts with Foggy taking Matt to a petting zoo and ends with their apartment full of hopping bunnies.

Your Heart Is Where Treasure Resides by @stripedscribe, art by @missmoochy Summary: Tonight as usual, the clouds hung low and heavy around the streets, the spire of the church hidden from view. He didn’t look anymore, the habit of a child of looking for the dragon had long since faded out of excitement. It had almost always been too cloudy, but on the days it wasn’t, he’d always seen the dragon, perched in its same position. A well trained pair of kids' binoculars could pick out the details, eyes closed in a slumber, and the tip of a horn damaged by the elements. No longer a child, Foggy found himself walking the streets late at night, with his dog. A sudden scare, and she was spooked, running blindly into an open doorway He wasn’t expecting to find her caught between the claws of a dragon. A low breath escaped from his mouth, as the heavy head of the creature swung to look at him. Eyes that didn’t seem to meet his own, but at the same time looked right through him, instantly seeming to weigh his soul.

It's a Wonderful Life by @pixelbypixelfanfic, art by @rrr-nightingale Summary: Matthew Murdock wakes up in a hospital. He's told that he collapsed in court, that he had a seizure. Worse, he's told that Foggy was killed a week earlier, and Matt can't remember any of this happening. Things get weirder from there. (But they end up happy, promise!)

Praying For The Devil by @missmoochy, art by @neonbrutalism Summary: Foggy Nelson would never reckon that he inspires strong feelings in anybody. He blunders through life and has a good time but always seems to miss the excitement. But Foggy doesn't realise that he's getting noticed. Dark forces have sinister designs on him, and if he wants to survive, he'd better start praying.

But as the lies and jealousy start to mount, Matt learns there are some status quos that aren’t worth preserving.

We Love Like Fools by @wolfnprey, art by @rrr-nightingale Summary: “What’s the point in acting like you don’t know I’m here when we both know that you could hear me coming?” Matt’s smile widened as he sat back in his chair and looked where he knew Foggy was standing. “The cover of normalcy?” He offered in explanation, earning a disbelieving scoff from his closest friend. “There is nothing normal about you, Matt,” Foggy replied, sounding strangely fond. It wasn’t abnormal, There were many things that Foggy would say to Matt that sounded that way with no understandable reason. aka, Matt takes a hard look at what it means to be in love with his best friend, with the help of some smart women in his life.

The Balancing Act by @booksandcoffeeandink, art by @onemagpie Summary: Nelson & Murdock is back and better than ever, Daredevil isn't dealing with crime lords or evil organizations, and things are feeling settled. Surely it doesn't matter that they desperately need a new office, Matt's bored (even with all of the new clients) and guilty about it, and Foggy's still adjusting to all of the truth that is his best friend. They just have to try harder. Right?

Words Unspoken, Still Heard by @amazing-spiderling, art by @artbymintcookies Summary: After being reminded of the myriad reasons his past relationships have never worked out, Matt starts second guessing whether he's doing enough to make his impact on Foggy's life a positive one. Unfortunately, his concerted efforts to be a more attentive partner go awry when he can't stop himself from playing the part of a hero, and ending up in a little trouble himself.

Other People's Blood by @pomegranate-belle, art by @neonbrutalism Summary: Foggy finds himself reminiscing on the ten years he's known Matt Murdock - son of and assassin for the Kingpin. The things they've learned about each other and the violence they've wrought together. Something sharp, and twisted, and beautiful. A love story written in other people's blood.

Daredevil is Into Me (Sexually) by @certaintendencies, art by @foggy-with-a-matt Summary: He really can’t tell the detective the true reason behind their late night rendezvous. Which is why, after a second’s hesitation and a deep, irrational moment of the fuck-its, Foggy shrugs and says, “Because Daredevil is into me.” And then, when the detective blinks rapidly and fails to respond, Foggy specifies, “Sexually.”

Kindness Is My Sword by Iithril, art by @pomegranate-belle Summary: "Do you remember when you two first met?" Karen asked, in a vain but still appreciated attempt at distracting him. "Right," Foggy started, clearing his throat, fearing he had dived in too deep, "let me relate to you the tale of a young scribe who happened to forget his inks in the library, and of the young page he encountered on his route to retrieve them that fateful night." Foggy has to save Matt from something he didn't do, and realises things along the way.

Way With Words by @matt-murdok, art by @onemagpie Summary: The first time Foggy seriously brought up "The Man in the Mask," it was over takeout and too much paperwork. He'd kind of mentioned the whole thing earlier with Karen, called him a nut, and moved on as quickly as Matt had. "Who do you think he is?" Foggy said casually over dinner later, completely oblivious to the outfit lying in a grimy heap barely even hidden in Matt's closet. "Who do I think who is?" "You know, the masked man. Our brand new off-brand Avenger. The dude running around like he thinks pirate chic should come back in style."

DareBear: The Plush Without Fear by @pomegranate-belle, art by @stripedscribe     Summary: “He’s a DareBear,” Foggy explained, handing the plush over to Karen. She laughed. “Not BearDevil?” “Nah. It’s a whole— thing.” The air shifted as Foggy made a vague hand gesture. “The group that makes them gives them to kids; to comfort them, to hold while they testify, that kind of thing. So they feel safe. Makes more sense to keep the dare than the devil, in this case.” --- Post-Season 3, Matt and Foggy grow closer again and share the last of their secrets - with a little help from a Daredevil-themed teddy bear.

Revenant Eternal by @bleedxblack-art, art by @foggy-with-a-matt Summary: After living longer than any others in human history, very little phased Foggy Nelson or Matt Murdock. Kingdoms rose and fell, men and women lived and died— for centuries, the only constant in the two lovers’ lives was the presence of the other. The tricky thing about their existence, though, was how positively uncertain their very lives had proven to be. If no one had any idea what prolonged their lives in the first place, it followed that they also had no idea what would end it. When old mistakes, fresh wounds, and new enemies change everything, the pair must adapt and navigate the world in spite of their fears.

life gets stranger every time we meet by @griefpersevering, art by Iithril Summary: The first time Foggy meets Matthew Murdock, it's because of a lost parcel.
