A Little Redraw Of Benjamin "Dex" Poindexter From Daredevil: Born Again 1x08 "Isle Of Joy" 🎯!!

in dd setting this photo feels like this in a way that matt doesn’t want to kill anyone and dex is like # yeah fuck the fisks but also # yeah fuck you matt (🏳️‍🌈) and your morals. he for sure would have his shit eating grin

the question is who would be taking the photos… oh my godd imagine fbi agent dex with the rr sign for a second where corrupt cops would be like giggling and taking photos with it bc haha they think they can do something while dex would be like oh my god they do not know I’m the bullseye and they will never know how funny it is if i take photo with them AND this symbol

do i make sense. lets put the time management of fbi and bullseye arcs and the ddba season 2 aside💔

thinking about dexmatt olympics au and i dont know what sports would fit them the best..

obvious choices for dex would baseball/softball/archery but i think that biathlon would suit him better because he would soon realise that those sports are too boring for him whereas biathlon is more competitive and competitive skiing in combination with fast-paced shooting is more of a “fun” choice. OR he could be in athletics! in original lore he got tired of a singular discipline really fast, so maybe keeping it as versatile as possible is a good option for him - javelin, different types of running, jumping etc etc. (javelin and other throwing disciplines keep his “bullseye” shtick)

matt is a harder one to choose for because it’s kinds hard to determine what kind of sport in paralympics would realistically be a good choice AND fit him. there’s such discipline as blind football and it could work! however idk if its the best fit and maybeee going less real-world reliant is an option and he could participate in para archery or para shooting which I think would be a better fit for him (keep his supersonic hearing or something?). however martial arts work too (and i think it’s the best fit!) and it would be the best lore-wise option as well because maybe his dad got him into this discipline by training him some boxing, then stick could be a grumpy coach that helped him after dad’s death

fun fact - there has actually been a blind martial arts winner in para judo! her name is Theodora Paschalidou and she won 1st place in 2020 so, yeah, maybe matt can be a martial arts athlete! however there are not that many disciplines to choose from - judo and taekwondo. judo is more self-defence reliant and is grappling based, whilst taekwondo is more aggressive and relies on kicks to win. SO maybe matt could’ve started off with judo early in his career and then switched to taekwondo? is that a thing? by mastering more than one martial art he could also stay a martial arts master that he is originally

if anyone has any other suggestions I’m all ears😋😋

Full body chills, chest flushed, heart pounding, vision blurring, head buzzing; I am but a humble worm in soil arising with the rain to lay beneath your gaze, swathed in your light and bathing in your tears

Professional baseball player!Dex gets into trouble that is ruining his growing career all because he uncaringly beats the shit out of a man into coma, too pissed at the agency for exploiting him, not knowing his victim is actually a predator who once Angela witnessed harassing so many women already so Angela insists on Nelson Murdock and Page's lawfirm to help clear his name but Dex thinks it's ridiculous and pointless so he's being very anti-helpful the whole process at the beginning and admiting that he didn't know about the man at all; what he did was intentional so he can just go to prison and unleash his pent-up frustration to inmates there because he knows there won't be a chance to get into this one and only dream career of his anymore, not the slightest since the moment the news about the beating got published and broadcasted, knowing he is too worthless because of his former contractor slash agency has proven so, to which then as the last resort, Foggy tries to coax him by saying what can they do to make him cooperate? They'll do anything as long as the request is realistic and doable. So, as a tongue in cheek response, Dex tells them: if they can bring Daredevil to him, the one vigilante he really, truly wants to spar with because they have similliar skillset - just to see who is better - perhaps he will at least try to fight harder for this battle.

Take a wild fucking guess who's against that daring requirement.

Only Matt knows Dex is being genuine, with the curiosity; it almost tastes pure. And Dex actually becomes an open book once Matt shows up in Daredevil suit to meet him with the help of Agent Ray, regardless Dex's infamously cocky mannerism still.

Who would've guessed the next time they come to visit Dex again, he's became a changed, obidient man? Not Foggy Nelson nor Karen Page for sure.
