Issue #7 - Where did the time go?

[a_guardiandevil]

[If you listen carefully, you can hear fingers drumming on a wooden writing desk. Ever since Abel's wedding, Matt's been avoiding people. Beyond the cliche of showing up as Daredevil for Halloween, he just needed time to get himself completely sorted out. Now? He's bored. He remembers there being a plan for him and Peter Parker to meet up, but in

[ she battled with trauma, had nightmares and then got to see the headstones of her dead friends from back home. this month officially sucks. she's trying to sound cheerful though ]

Thankfully, the source isn't candy corn. Ugh, I don't think I want to see another piece of that stuff ever again.

It's probably the little sugar skulls, I found a few of those in my room today.

Right, Day of the Dead. I should've guessed.

I'm a Catholic, and I've never gotten this whole event.

forever?;

[reshaper]

I've never really celebrated it, so..

Yeah, I'm at a loss.

indeeds; also? Cessily needs to bother Jono >_>

[a_guardiandevil]

It's a Mexican thing, I guess. Honoring the dead and all that.

[kindnessing]

It's the castle. Have you been able to get out of your room?

[a_guardiandevil]

Ahh, more fun from the ghosts, I bet.

Not lately, I've been laid up for a while. Got the tar beaten out of me about a month ago, been in recuperation ever since.

[kindnessing]

Sort of... I think the castle itself may be to blame this time. [...] I didn't hear about that. I hope you've been feeling better.

Bizarre castle trick. It's not the only one going around. This is probably the one time you should be happy you're blind, Matt.

You might get lucky enough not to be effected by any of this.

Makes sense. I forgot what comes after Halloween, so I didn't see it coming.

The last thing I need is my dad chasing after me, telling me things I already know. He can stay dead, thanks.

[She's almost winces at that. She can't imagine wanting your father to stay dead.]

They don't talk. Just... linger. Was your father really that bad?

Elektra

[a_guardiandevil]

Well, my dad wasn't that bad, he just...he's a lot of the reason why I turned out the way I did, good and bad.

I made my peace with my old man a long time ago. I don't need to see his ghost.

We did. We used to meet up on one of the support towers of the Brooklyn Bridge, whenever one of us had something on his mind. To be honest, you helped me put a lot of things in perspective, when I needed it.

Still makes me laugh. We've managed to be friends both in-and-out of costume for longer than most masks have even known about each other.

[Dictated to Spider-Man]

[a_guardiandevil]

Eh, it's all a matter of perspective. The Pete I know's been through things I wouldn't wish on anyone. We'll have to compare notes one of these days, figure out what's different.

Sounds like a plan. Too bad Paradisa's not like Manhattan. Any tall building could be a good spot, so we had our pick. We'll have to find a spot where a pair of red-clad vigilantes won't look out of place.
