[ Hearing this from Matt "Definitely the Kingpin" Murdock is about -100 in Gwen's list of things she ever wanted to do. ]
Okay, what do you even know about responsibility, Murderdock? You don't get to lecture me! You killed a guy in cold blood, and I'm pretty sure you got away with or you wouldn't be the sleazebag lawyer you are today.
The world might not revolve around me, but I'm the only one who's even close to knowing the real you, so-- yeah, you know what? That makes you my responsibility. Whether you like it or not.
[matt lets her finish her tirade, and then he just laughs at her. it's cold and it's delegitimizing and it gives her no power in this conversation. but the things she says are funny to him, it's a swing and a hard miss and he'd told her before she needed to learn how to aim her punches before she threw them.]
Bravo, Gwen, what a rousing speech.
[he pauses, like maybe he's going to stop there or maybe he's going to keep talking. he tries not to be a comic book villain, but sometimes opportunities are just so impeccably laid at his feet it's hard not to fall into the trope.]
You've got 99 problems, and I really shouldn't be one of them.
[ Gwen glares hard at her watch, shutting it when Matt starts to laugh. Too bad it's a recorded message and she eventually has to go through the whole bit in order to get to the actual message. Ugh, she hates this guy. If this was in person she'd have totally tried to throw a punch at him by now. (And it probably would have gotten her killed or at least injured, but that's neither here nor there.) ]
Whatever, Murdock. Just throw your stupid "party." I'll be there.
