1) Laywer By Day (at his office, whenever)
[ No case is too small (no really) for Matt Murdock, Attorney at Law. His tiny private firm handles everything from civil cases like fraud to, well, murder. Really whatever you need. If your landlord didn't tell you your nice new flat was haunted, or you need to sue your boss for harassment, he's your guy. His office is small, and possibly as normal as could be. He doesn't quite specialize in 'normalizing' supernatural cases, but he's got some experience with it. But even minor inquiries are fine-- the door (and temporary sign) is always open for new clients. Maybe one of those new clients is you! ]
Hi. How can I help you?
2) Officially-Sanctioned Vigilante By Night (Redbright Outreach Group)
[ Matt's fairly new at this Outreach thing. Just the fact that people know he's a metahuman is still a bit bizarre if you ask him. But the work is good, and most people don't ask questions (like why is he wearing sunglasses at night, he's not that cool,) and the thugs have been either a) vanquished, or b) dealt with pretty swiftly. Overall, it's a good night. Things are winding down back at HQ, so to speak, when they make it back to Redbright.
He's still getting used to this whole "working with a team" thing, and while he can't say he's a huge fan of the idea, it's maybe not as bad as he expected. Maybe. At least they have a pretty sweet benefits deal, like letting him save lives and keeping people safe.
Except now the night's over and the rounds are done. Maybe you're grabbing him on his way out or at the lockers, maybe the dark sunglasses at night suddenly make sense as he unfolds his white cane. Either way, Matt's done for the night and heading home. Perfect time to chat, right? ]
3) When Does Matt Even Sleep? (In a bar)
[ On nights when Matt doesn't go out and break faces, he's actually pretty chill. Long nights burning the midnight oil can take their toll on a guy. (Might not get eye strain but you can only read so much braille before your fingers start to go numb.) Matt's not so studious that he doesn't know how to take it easy, and often times that means hitting the pub when he needs to unwind. Attractive guy like him tends to draw a few stares at the bar, but it's not like he can see them. (His senses tell him all he need, the state of inebriation of the other patrons, the smell of alcohol in his glass-- he'd know if someone tried to slip him a cheaper drink, but they don't do that to him here. Anymore.) He kinda just likes the atmosphere... and largely, the drinks. Definitely the drinks.
His secretary goes home after a couple; she offers him a ride home, but he declines. He's got time to kill if he's taking the night off. It's not even his bed time. ]
3.b) Bar Crawl, St. Paddy's Day Edition
[ Matt is not nearly as embarrassing as he could be on Saint Patrick's, but his dad always used to celebrate it which of course means Matt does too. By drinking liberally. So for a special drunk-flavored Matt, here's your prompt. How many pints of beer has Matt had at this point? Probably not enough to get him pissed, but he's up there.A ninja is never drunk. No way. ]
Here, lemme-- can I buy you a drink?
4) It's Sunday, do you know where your Catholic is?
[ Sunday morning, of course Matt is at church, present as ever while the rest of the parishioners go through the motions. He sits like he means to be invisible: silently listening in the back pew, hands held together in prayer throughout mass. When the service is done, the priest greets him by name. He's a regular, though he doesn't always make time for the whole thing.
He doesn't stick around for long after. Places to be, people to meet. But church is a safe place. He's at peace here. Maybe he'll actually talk, for once. What better way to know a man than through his relationship with God? ]

no subject
totes feel free to drop this
[ Matt waves at the bar's... general direction. It's harder to sense people when you've had a few. ]
Baileys for my friend here. Another beer for me.
[ Matt likes the cheap stuff, it's a curse. ]
drops you like you're hot
Wow. That was fast.
u sayin I'm not hot punk???
[ Matt would in no way brag about this if he weren't drunk. But he is, so he just laughs. ]
I could sue them for discrimination.
[ He's joking!! But it's also true. ]
that's exactly what i'm sayin
[Oliver's obviously pretty drunk too. Normally he might've just asked 'why?', and now that's out of his mouth he really wishes that had been the case this time.]
ruuuude!!! dang!!
[ Hey man, it's cool. I mean, it's true, too. Matt's smile never falls, it's not like he's gonna get offended when he makes no move to hide it. ]
Also because I'm an attorney. So I could sue them personally.
it's okay, i still love you
[For someone who hangs out with a law student so much he's not exactly clear on the details of what attorneys can and can't do.]
:T!!!
[ Matt's never too drunk to talk law things. ]
I mean, technically I would be suing on behalf of the disabled community for not following proper regulations, but it wouldn't even reach the higher courts, so I could represent myself without needing a barrister or anything.
