"Let Me Make It Mean Something."

man, that matt-frank-karen love triangle is gonna hit like crack when ddba season 2 comes out in 3 years

i do love listmaking…

the absolute crux of the kastle bond is that they were both the protectors/providers of their families and they both carry around the guilt and blame of failing that responsibility. it's why karen starts crying literally anytime he starts talking about his family and how they were better off without him, she's not just being empathetic she knows from experience how it feels (she's the guy that jumps down in the hole with you because she's been there before and knows the way out)

absolutely agree—it should be Frank. their whole dynamic in ddba s1 had shifted (i love it) into something else, and Karen deserves to be chosen, period. and yeah, it’s absolutely hilarious (and probably true) that Frank would be a disaster leading up to it—like a skittish, emotionally repressed kitten debating whether to bolt or stay. but when it comes to the ✨ kiss ✨, when he actually gets to that moment, it’d be far from tps1 when he barely kissed her on the cheek and basically professing he sees Karen as someone important, as family. no. Frank’s gotta grab her with both hands.

scenario-wise, i want the kiss to happen either 1) after a forehead touch first or 2) after an adrenaline high, something awful happens, but they’re safe, bruised, and Frank just decides, say, fuck it and goes for it.

even tho imo kastle is one of those ships where they don’t have to kiss on screen to be devastatingly powerful, if it does happen, good lord. that’s just a bonus for all of us emotionally invested fools.

I have a big IF question.

IF (please let it happen superior power) we get the Kastle ✨kiss✨ in s2, who do you want initiating the kiss and why ?

imo ig it should be Frank but what's yours..

(yes im living in their fantasy right now, no don't pull me out)

You heard his too?

Oh, yeah.

I love the detail that Frank knows that Matt’s senses are enhanced but they’ve never had a conversation about it.  He asks Matt if he clocked the van of cops on the other side of the building. He tosses Matt the bullet with the punisher skull on it knowing he’ll catch it and be able to feel the indentation.

Every night I ask myself "is it better to stay up and make sure something gets done, or bank on going to sleep early-ish and being more productive tomorrow" and then land on a worst of both worlds compromise.

matt listening to frank and karen’s heartbeats and realizing that they have feelings for each other oh my god put me down right now
