Summary
“Sorry.” The man had a nice voice, Matt thought. Clear. A tenor. “I’m–I’m here. Sorry, I didn’t want to say anything and startle you. Sorry.”
Matt’s lips twitched. “It’s alright.” He inclined his head, pushing off of the wall and extending his hand. “Matthew Murdock.”
The slightest bit of hesitation, before Matt found his hand grasped in a surprisingly firm grip. “Benjamin. Ben Poindexter." He cleared his throat. “But I go by Dex, usually.”
Matt grinned. “And I go by Matt.” He tilted his head, flashing a smile. “Usually.”
Matt and Dex meet each other in college.

His second thought: he looks like Bruce. His third thought: shit.

Summary
Benjamin Poindexter is many things: outlaw, stalker, a man with more sins than prayers. But when he slips into the confessional with a reopened wound and a voice like a razor blade, he doesn't ask for absolution. He asks to be seen.
"You make people feel seen," Dex tells him. "For someone like me - invisible my whole life - that's the most dangerous thing in the world."
When Dex sits in his confessional and refuses to leave, when he whispers say my name again like it's a prayer of its own, Matt has to decide how much of himself he's willing to lose—and how much he never had to begin with.
Because Benjamin Poindexter doesn't want to break him.
He wants Matt to choose to fall.
----------------------
Or: The priest AU where Dex stalks Matt for six weeks, shows up bleeding at midnight, and spends one long night trying to convince a man of God that wanting isn't the same as sinning.Bookmarked by Player_nik

Summary
The boy watches him carefully, focusing sharply on his every reaction, “You got any kids?”
Bruce makes sure the surprise at the question is not evident on his face, “I don't,” He answers heavily.
Peter closes his eyes with a slow and deliberate movement, disappointment evident in the way his shoulders relax in defeat, “So you're not my dad, huh?”
“No, Peter,” Bruce confirms gently, not sure why the truth feels wrong, “I'm not your father.”
The boy opens his eyes, expression full of grief and eyes a blazing gold flecked with green, “My name's actually Jason.”
(A strange boy covered in scars enters Doctor Bruce Wayne's emergency room.)
