Re: Danny Rand || Marvel's Netflix/MCU

AU where Danny never ended up orphaned, abused, and turned into a living weapon. *a single tear rolls down my cheek* Wait no that's not what I'm here for!

Here are a few ideas off the top of my head...
- Matt works for the city as a prosecutor so sadly I can't offer him up as a lawyer for the company but there could be some funny awkwardness if Matt was previously on a case against Rand Industries.
- Naive young man from money who knows nothing about kung fu? Sounds like a great target for some criminals to take advantage of. Too bad there's a vigilante running around stopping this kind of thing lately.
- Coincidentally Matt has regained memories with both Luke and Jessica but not Danny yet. idk if you have a preference how soon he does. Not that he has to tell him immediately. He doesn't know the context that they all met in.

oh the living weapon is coming ... it will just be a lot less traumatic and a little more confusing

um yes?? All of it.

01. Matt doesn't want to work for Danny anyway. Can you imagine? But I would love some tension there in the way of Matt having worked a case against them.
02. pLEASE give me this. I want Danny to never live it down that Matt had to save him from muggers or something.
03. No preference. I think Matt should mention it when the time feels right for Matt. All things considered, Danny would take it pretty easily? Like he'd laugh and be like "okay buddy" but he's pretty chill.

Great!

01. Matt would be in an eternal state of sighing. Let's be honest, Danny's assistant and closest employees are going to be his babysitters.
But yes, I'll have to think of what the details of the case would have been. City of Recolle vs Rand Industries? Hm...
02. Don't worry Danny, Matt won't torment you over it. He'll just be in the corner smiling smugly when he realizes you're the Immortal Iron Fist.
03. I like this approach. You never know what fun opportunities and exact reactions characters will have until you're in the game to be honest.

Well, I hate to be THAT person and point out things that hurt ... But the truck that blinded Matt (in Netflix verse) was a Rand truck ... Sob. So it could be like, a negligence charge or something? Maybe whoever was running the Recolle branch just hecked it all up so after the lawsuit, the guy was let go and now in an effort to clean it up, Danny's being sent in to give it a go?

That actually came to mind first. XD You're welcome to write that in as part of the reason Danny is in charge in Recolle now.
