    Summary

    When nine-year-old Matt Murdock comes home deafblind, life isn't easy. Jack Murdock doesn’t have training. He doesn’t have answers. (He also doesn't die!)

    What he has is calloused hands, stubborn love, and the determination to help his son not only survive, but thrive.

    Trading Leather begins a series of vignettes. I’ve gone rogue and am thoroughly AU even from my own canon except for the fact that Matt is still Deafblind (which is the one thing that seems to be holding my verse together). I started out this thinking it was a prequel to Idle Hands, but that changed pretty quickly.

    Yes, Matt and Foggy will eventually end up together romantically. All in due time. I'll change the rating to mature eventually. Right now, the main theme centers around the father-son dynamic. There will have to be a POV switch away from Jack at some point.

    Summary

    Curses are a fact of life in Bohemia, though in these times of war and upheaval Blessings seem pretty thin on the ground. Yet one of the nobility's best kept secrets is their own curse: children born out of wedlock and unclaimed by their noble parent come out... deformed. Inhuman. Barely more than disfigured beasts. Typically culled before they can grow out of infancy, these cursed children are a rare sight indeed. Perhaps that is why Henry is so misunderstood. Perhaps that is why he tries so hard to find a place among his town and his people.

    Perhaps that is why he clings so tightly to the first hand that was held out to him in kindness.

    A series of standalone stories inspired by the negative perks.

    Summary

    A feeling strikes him then, suddenly. A burst of something in his chest. Like the aftershock from a handgonne. The shock of needing someone, and of having someone. Something to look forward to every time he opens his eyes. Some reason to stay.

     

    Henry opens his eyes. It’s cold outside, or there’s a fire in the mantle inside, or there’s revelry downstairs at the Devil’s Den, or a warm body beside him until it’s not there anymore. A story inspired by the Somnambulant negative perk.
