Summary
He’s trying to pin down the exact moment it happened. If love is something you seep into gradually – like wading out into the water and not noticing how deep you are till you’re watching bubbles rise to the sunlit surface – or if love is something that happens suddenly, like getting hit by a car or struck by lightening.
He has no idea. One moment they were strangers, and the next he was here, head over heels and having no idea how to confess.

this breaks foggy and matt (and me) apart and puts us all back together again
redemption ficit's exactly what i was looking for
“Can I?” Matt asks, poised over the buttons on Foggy’s shirt and Foggy nods – then opens his mouth to say yes but Matt is already undoing buttons and it hits him again, how much Matt can sense without sight.
Only this time, it doesn’t feel like being burned for all the slight of hand Matt built their relationship on. This time, he is simply awed.
He watches Matt undo each button with a look of concentration on his face and he’s absolutely floored by him – by the fact that Matt is so sharp and so clever and, apparently, gifted because of, or in spite of (he’s not sure which) his blindness. But beyond that, there is a goodness to him, inherent in him, a goodness that often looks like Catholic guilt to the untrained eye but isn’t, at least not completely, it’s something more. It’s a hunger for righteousness, for justice, for mercy and kindness and fairness and everything the world depraved him of for so long. It’s a longing for no one to suffer like he did, for no one to suffer at all. It’s a need to be more than just a cog in the machine, than just a man going through life, but to be agent of change. He’s a force to be reckoned with, and Foggy knew that all along, but it’s different now. It’s more visible now.
As Matt pushes Foggy’s shirt off his shoulders, he realizes he understands Matt better now and has avoid getting hung up on the passing sadness that he didn’t know Matt completely before. All those years they spent together and there are still deep wells inside of Matt that Foggy has yet to drink from.
However, as much as the hurt still lingers, the betrayal not quite healed over yet, there is now an excitement to it. That he can spend so much time with one man and still have more of him to discover – it’s like learning there are new books in your favorite series. New stories have yet to unfold.To The Vines by DarkCaustic
