Re: Where Matt has a real identical twin named Mike who is sighted and is Daredevil

Okay, I might have an idea. I was thinking about this all the way home form work!

What happens the first time Stick doses him with the evil!tea? I think before, in the other comm we said Stick knocks him out and doses him while he’s unconscious? What if instead of that, when Mike agrees to take his training to the next level, Stick gives him the evil!tea than, like it’s some kind of thing they do when someone enters that stage of training. It doesn’t take effect straight away, it takes a little while. In the meantime, Stick pins him down and puts something in his eyes. Doesn’t have to drip it in with a dropper either, he could have a really unhygienic looking flask filled with this stuff, then he pins him down, holds his eyes open and literally pours the stuff over him...

It’s around that time that the tea starts taking effect. Whatever’s in the stuff in his eyes makes then sting and burn, but it’s really just a mild irritant and it’s the evil!tea that’s doing the damage.

That way, even if he would have been suspicious of the tea before, the fact that something got poured in his eyes and that’s when he stopped being able to see would leave little doubt that that was what had done it. Even if he was given the tea again later, I don’t think he’d suspect.

So Stick gets his trauma as a catalyst, and Mike probably gets nightmares for the rest of his life.

Oh God, yes. That's what we're looking for. That sounds much more like a Stick thing to do, too. And the fact that Mike agrees to take it to the next level... That'll haunt him. :) It's not real, informed consent, but it'll make him kick himself for agreeing, maybe make him take some responsibility for his situation? (So f-ed up...)

Poor Mike, convinced the whole thing is his own fault even through there's no way he could have predicted that Stick would pull that shit. Maybe Stick could even tell him if he gets upset about it (I bet he's got the same temper Matt has, so I can imagine him getting really frustrated and angry at some point, shouting and yelling, maybe punching Stick.) that if he didn't think he could handle it, he shouldn't have agreed. Maybe he told him something really vague about this new level of training that with hindsight it's clear what he meant but at the time it didn't really mean anything.

Actually, random thought. What if that's when Mike's senses start to kick in, maybe even without him noticing. He gets so frustrated about whatever Stick's trying to make him do that he can't, than he starts raging, yelling, screaming crying, whatever, and in his rage, he actually attacks Stick. Stick pretty quickly subdues him, but when he has he points out that Mike was putting up a decent fight, plus managing to block him. When Mike's calmed down, Stick has him try whatever they were doing again, and he can do it.

Also, I was thinking Stick should be a bit nice to him sometimes. Like that time for example. In this kind of gruff way that's actually not that nice. He gets that Mike's scared and angry, but it's working. Maybe tells him he's proud of him or something...

If he couldn't handle it, he shouldn't have agreed... To have that thrown in his face would sting... I really like the anger angle. I think it's the way to go. And Stick being "proud" of him... Oh, poor Mike....
