a concept: Karen shows up to her first day of work as Nelson, Murdock, and Page’s official investigator without noticing the purple hickey Frank left on her collarbone while they were in bed just an hour before. Matt and Foggy are of course speechless and unable to respond to her cheerful “Good Morning”.
Meanwhile back at their apartment, a shirtless and sleepy Frank smirks at Karen’s mortified text yelling at him for not being more careful while ‘It Was a Good Day’ by Ice Cube plays in the background.
the ideal on-screen kastle kiss would be Frank with his forehead against Karen’s and their lips drift close a half dozen times while he’s doing That Thing where he just breathes but it’s like he’s on the edge of drowning in everything he cannot, and does not say. Karen gets it, doesn’t push him but her hands are on his chest so she can feel where his heart beats harder, steadier, and then everything falls silent and their mouths part and its slow at first, not nervous but …unfamiliar.. their bodies move together after a moment and it’s just that overwhelming sense of ‘finally’.
“Deborah Ann Woll returns as Karen Page, with another tour de force performance making the character almost worthy of her own superhero series as a crusading reporter willing to stand up against the same villains against whom the superhuman costumed vigilantes do battle. Woll’s role is the single most important supporting character in any of the Marvel-Netflix shows, in terms of the dramatic weight and relevance she has for the narratives and for providing an audience surrogate at times. Woll treats every scene like she’s the star of the show, and it’s easy sometimes to forget she’s not.”
they’d better give a DAMN good in-universe excuse for why Frank Castle doesn’t come crashing through the wall the minute Fisk puts the hit out on Karen
you really think that Frank ‘no one goes after her’ Castle wouldn’t show up and murder Bullseye on the spot? You think Frank ‘if something happens to her’ Castle wouldn’t walk right into Fisk’s penthouse apartment and bodyslam him into the floor? Like HELL Frank ‘I will come for you’ Castle wouldn’t destroy half the city to keep Karen safe
