[ they shouldn't be here, together like this — their limbs entwined, jess no longer fighting the temptation of his warm embrace.
matthew murdock doesn't belong with her. perhaps he's an annoying asshole who wallows in self-pity, but he's also a decent man. he cares, far more than what's considered reasonable, which is why he shouldn't stay anywhere near a walking disaster like jessica jones.
the moments they shared in hell's kitchen — those were evoked by a time of desperation, where countless lives would have been endangered if they refused to unite. there's no sense in repeating that now, in tormenting each other like this.
still, she can't help it in the end. as memories of the time they've spent here flash through her thoughts, she realizes the truth. she's always been a selfish piece of shit. nothing will ever change that. ]
Murdock. Goddammit— [ jess groans in response, her tone not quite as gentle as his, though it unquestionably softens. ] Matt.
