Open | Network or Action | And all the sinners crawl

[preemptiveforgiveness]

Matt doesn't get on the network immediately. In fact, he's a little surprised to find that his PDA seems to have excellent voice control capabilities. He's also surprised to find an apartment that's laid out very much like his at home. As he explores the city, sunglasses on and cane in hand, there's a lot about this place that surprises him.

It's not until the third day, and plenty of exploring, that he finally gets on the network. He's sitting in a coffee shop, coffee at hand when he brings up the video screen and network capabilities. He probably looks pretty puzzled on the screen (because he is) but he also tries to look friendly enough. He's talked to a few people in the last few days, but not the city at large.

"Matthew Murdock," he tells the video screen, "and I guess you could say I'm new here. I've gathered a few things about this city, like the door I came in through doesn't go both ways and there are some very strange coincidences going on." He'll be happy to share some of those coincidences should anyone ask, but they mostly consist of his apartment right now.

"In any case, any information about this place will be very welcome."

That said, he turns the video function off, pockets the PDA and picks up his coffee. He's going to continue exploring and can be found just about anywhere in the city. Occasionally he'll stop, cock his head to one side and appear to be listening to something, but then he'll continue on, cane tapping ahead of him.

A different sort of hero only begs for a different kind of villain, doesn't he? Matt might know that even if Jerry doesn't know he knows it.

Adapt and overcome, after all.

"Maybe it won't even be a point," Jerry offers and this is disingenuous certainly. True natures always do come out, don't they?

Always. His will eventually.

Indeed it does and that's the rub. The world does seem to have a way of doing that. Matt frowns, considering that. "Maybe it won't. That would make this place unique." Yes, they do. Matt knows that as well as Jerry does. Matt likes to think that he'd know how to handle things if and when that happens. He's not so sure though.

For being over 400 years old, Jerry's a little cynical when it comes to places being "unique." People are, no matter what, the same kind of being.

"You think that's gonna happen?" Jerry asks, watching Matt sidelong.
