Verity's own brother couldn't manage his marriage and his heroing, and his wife was a hero on the same team. She's going into this knowing full well she and Matt probably won't work out in the long run. But she loves him too much to not try.

"I know. It's a lot to think about, all the ramifications." The reference is lost on her; she just gives Foggy a kind of blank look. "He's not great at managing his schedule. Sometimes he needs to be reminded that he can't save everyone."

Power and money get everyone eventually; if not directly, then through family or friends. "No. He can't. But I think he'd rather die trying." That's a glum admission. Heroes don't retire. She's seen it. Even after the serum wore off, Cap never stopped, he just shifted his focus. It makes no goddamn sense to her. "Fisk isn't going to stop either. Some people just don't know how."
