Title: dark star
Fandom: Daredevil (TV)
Content notes:
Fanmixer notes: I interpreted the prompt "midnight" as a midnight of the soul of sorts, a dark place which is also a turning point - a crisis of faith. Matt's faith is very important to him and for the most part, it is a source of strength for him - until it's not, and suddenly becomes a source of inner turmoil and conflict. I tried to illustrate that journey in this mix.

Summary: A mix about Matt and faith.
