The frustrating, soul-crushing experience of trying to find a job despite being Just A Fox and knowing you shouldn't have to do this at all

Tails is on his own - as the big nasty posters haunt him. Unfortunately, they’re the only link to his big brother.

More Sonic au stuff, this time some of the outside world. It’s rough out there.

Kakanaru au where kakashi gets hurt on a mission and passes out in the middle of a forest on the way back to Konoha.

When he wakes up he’s neatly laid out in the middle of an old shrine, with fresh bandages wrapped around his stitched up wounds and warm tea at his elbow.

The fact he remained unconscious through someone moving him and closing his wounds was discontenting even if it wasn’t particularly surprising. He did lose a lot of blood and chakra after all.

Now that he’s awake, kakashi knows he should leave. He knows better than to test his luck staying in place for too long anywhere outside of the village.

But…he’s curious. And despite the stitches, he’s still in danger of infection considering Konoha is over a week away in his current state.

So he leverages himself up, and tries to look around as much as he can. But the entire shrine is empty. Not a single sign of the one that helped him.

When he wakes up again a few hours later there’s a pot of warm tea at his side to replace the old cup, a little pile of fruit, and new bandages. The day after that, there’s sake and plum wine added to the mix.

Kakashi doesn’t really know what’s happening but he’s never been one to sit idle nor has he ever been an ungrateful man. So as soon as he’s able to get up without his head spinning he gets to work. he sweeps the floors and dusts the cobwebs. Even polishes a little golden fox statue he finds tucked behind a wooden alter.

It’s the least he could do for his hidden host. The caretaker of this place maybe?

Kakashi’s body and chakra recovers faster than he anticipated. After five days he leaves even as the Hatake part of him that lives in back of his head keens.

Before he goes he pats the golden fox on the head. It was oddly cute compared to the 9 statues of snarling stone foxes surrounding it, though there was undeniable beauty in those too.

A few months later he’s injured again and realizes the shrine is on his way back to Konoha. He stops there to rest for the night and heads out in the morning, only taking the time to drink some of the tea and wipe down the alter, barely noticing how his chakra coils have refilled already.

And it keeps happening whenever he gets injured. He comes, he rests, he cleans, and goes with a pat to the gold statues head.

Until one day he wakes up to a long limbed blond at his side instead of the usual tea and fruits. When the blanket shifts to reveal a bare back and smooth tan skin he thanks every god out there for his mask covering his blush. Sleepy blue eyes blink open at him right on cue and honestly? Kakashi thinks he deserved that for not putting the pieces together earlier.

When Karen comes back, Matt gets softer, more quiet, and yeah, sure, he's in a lot of pain, so it could be that, but Karen is back and she actually listens to him about the hit on foggy, she believes him and helps. She doesn't make him feel insane and try to shut him down.

Matt's life is in shambles once again but he'd rather have this than continue to live in the fake purgatory he was floating through. Karen comes back and Matt starts to feel real again.

My cat went missing on my birthday awhile ago and the grief has been pretty hard hitting. Drawing this year has felt impossible but im trying. putting some of those feelings into doodles of Anduin and Fox. ;w;

More !!! Im really fond of the two stitched looking things on the right. I want to design more of them. I’m feeling super inspired by Kanotynes …..

The way Frank Castle is so sad dog coded and Matt Murdock is such a wet cat. Karen is just out there collecting strays like she can't help herself (honestly fair).

Meanwhile, Foggy is over there trying to watch over the whole circus so no one ends up being convicted of murder (at least his two favorites, I think he gave up on that third guy but he did try).

I don't understand why people are calling Born Again's episode 5 a filler episode when it connects directly to the plot.

The past 4 episodes have all been various parallels between Matt and Fisk, and how they are trying and failing to move past and rise above their old lives revolving around crime. Episode 5 is about different aspects of those things colliding. The bank robbers work for Luca, the current Irish crime faction leader, and they're trying to get the diamond for the restitution money that Vanessa ordered. It's literally all there in the episode recap.

For Matt, it's one of the last big cracks in his resolve to stay out of crime fighting. He may not have put on the suit for it, but he can't help but get involved. He could have just called 911 to report the robbery and left it to the authorities, but he chose to go back into the building because he knew he could use his abilities to save people and stop the robbers in ways the cops couldn't. It's the penultimate event of Matt slipping back into his Daredevil behavior. At the end of every episode from 2 upwards it ends with glimpses of Matt and Fisk edging back into old habits.

The comparisons are hand-fed to us by cutting between clips of Matt and Fisk ceding to their darker sides. Episode 6 opens with Matt praying because he's in so much internal turmoil over what he promised himself he wouldn't return to doing versus what Hector said about people needing vigilantes in the city to help them. Matt's interference in the robbery, even though he wasn't in the DD suit, just proves what Hector was telling Matt about people needing a hero, was true despite how hard Matt reasoned against it.

There's is double meaning when Matt says "I've stopped a few times over the years, but I always end up coming back to it." then the very next clip is Luca coming to confront Fisk about the restitution money that he failed to get because the bank robbery failed (due to Matt) and Fisk devolves back into Kingpin behavior. Then, again, it's cut up with scenes of Heather talking with Matt about vigilantes, and what a masked persona can allow a person to do.

There aren't filler episodes because everything is related and tied together. Matt and Fisk, no matter what they try, will always be pulled back into their respective darker natures, and so inevitably, will collide with each other. Episode 5 was just as much of an exploration of this theme as the others.

yes i know feixiao is a fox but thematically. thematically she would make an excellent borzoi like imagine being a wolf and you come across this snowy white creature and she looks a little like you and a little not, and she sounds a little like you and a little not, and you know she is something but you don’t know what until her teeth are around your neck and in the end you realise she is the predator and for once you are the prey. or something. does anyone see the vision
