Sometimes I just think about how much rage Frank simply vibrates with.

It's 930pm and the intrusive thoughts are here again.

The only time he felt alive was when he took a life.

It was really fucked up, in the grand scheme of things. He'd never been this man before it all - before the loss, the pain, the guilt. It wasn't easy to sleep at night when Orange handed down his orders, made him into a sickness and unleashed that disease on people Frank knew were probably innocent deep down. Somehow he'd managed to swallow all of that down, to separate a part of it and leave it overseas, but it kept him up at night when he was home.

The one night after. Before he lost everything. You were tired, you needed your sleep.

He didn't have the heart to tell his wife that it was grief that kept him up so late, that made him sleep in when his mind finally gave into his body.

So now he hunted. Frank Castle was an idea, an echo of a good father and a good husband. What was here, now ... that was the man. A husk, but full of such rage it made him vibrate. There was no peace. And in moments like these he was sure every single person in the world could hear the pounding of his heart. It thrummed in his chest so steady, so strong he was sure his ears would burst.

He learned torture in Cerberus. He hated admitting he was good at it, but fuckers like this? Deserved it. Scum, the lot of them.

By the time he'd been interrupted he'd been hard at work. Blood smattered his cheek in spurts and his target - a trafficker, was panting and oozing and whining, crying across from him. The voice felt so familiar, but ...

Frank set the pliers down before him and raised his hands to either side of his head. Testing limits, he stood but kept his back to his assailant. His nose twitched when he sniffed, and he could feel that loving caress of rage wash over him again. This would not be the first time someone had tried to stop him. It wouldn't be the last.

"Don't know who you are, don't care. Just know you're not gonna stop this." A beat. "Better not to try. Have a shot to walk out before you're sorry."

They'd be sorry anyway. He didn't forget.

the big bad punisher. that was her next mission. eliminating the target who took out military government officials as well as other important corrupt powers in charge. the man of the hour, who had stirred up a plethora of trouble for the agency. her job wasn’t to ask any questions, it was to follow orders. this one having been crystal clear. upon studying his case file, olive orbs honed in on facial features, which sent a rush of something uncomfortably familiar up her spine. confusion crawled into the deepest darkest crevice of mind, remaining there for just a brief moment longer before finally dissipating. maria knew what she had to do, there was no room for error.

his whereabouts had been leaked, an important name’s home [always leaving those details out, privacy purposes.] bullet proof vest is worn underneath professional attire, hand ghosting over loaded glock resting in holster. it had to be quick, clean, no room for fuckups. after all, that was the main reason they sent her. the skilled agent who never missed. their one hit wonder. a brainwashed ruthless machine they’d created from scraps of anguish, no remaining purpose, and utter rage. husband, dead. daughter and son, dead. desire to live, dead. a lethal combination that so efficiently worked in their favor. precise steps are taken as she approaches the home, gliding up steps into the open abyss of his merciless revenge. the irony of it all was cruel. sending the dead wife to finish their botched job. quiet, stealthy steps managed to sneak up behind him, but not too close. gun already drawn and pointed directly towards target’s head. “weapons down and turn around slowly.” she demanded in an icy, unfamiliar tone. the victim was bound to a chair, but still breathing. so far so good.

Regularly thinking about how Frank was shot execution style and survived on sheer stubbornness and spite.
