Hi! Before I start I just wanted to let you know that Matt Murdock is one of my favorite MCU characters and that's why I'm coming to you today to see if you can perhaps clarify a couple of things for me.
So one of the things that we see in not only the show but also the comics is that Matt's Catholicism is a huge part of who he is as a character - the weight of violence is always on his mind like when he says that his soul will be damned if he kills Wilson Fisk or just the fact that he takes Catholic guilt to high levels. He brings his guilt to the Church where he has several conversations with a priest both in and out of Confession.
Now his relationship with Karen and Elektra are also bigh parts of his life. Karen is a close friend and a one time love interest and Elektra though polar opposite of Matt, well they're pretty much glued together in canon. Even though she keeps trying to pull out the darker side of him that he tries to repress, he's still drawn to her and obviously loves her and keeps trying to get her to redeem herself. In the show, her death devastated him and into the Defenders, you can see where it's changed his life almost completely to where he's throwing himself into his work and working lots of pro bono cases while he was still grieving over her. How is he handling that loss on the island? I haven't seen much of Matt even attempting to talk to Karen, and was wondering why that was since they are friends in canon.
I was wondering if these were things that you have considered and if so, where are they explored through RP? I admit that I was disappointed to see that it doesn't appear to have been addressed nor does Matt seem to have overly struggled with these issues ICLY. So I suppose I'm wondering just how exactly you've got him to deal with these issues on an island that revolves around sex and forced intimacy?
