There would never be a replacement for Karen. Matt was acutely aware of that fact every day- and he knew Foggy was as well. It had been over a year since her death, and still some part of him felt like interviewing people to take her place was somehow betraying her. But the truth of the matter was that they needed consistent, reliable help. Cycling through temps had worked well enough until the press had added a new pile of complications to their daily operating procedure by doing what they could to find out if Matt Murdock was really the vigilante called Daredevil. And now? Now they just didn't have time to do their jobs and someone else's.
They'd talked about it, agreed on it completely-- Foggy had put out an ad and Matt had answered any inquiries. And yet when it came down to the time to start interviewing prospective employees, Matt's chest felt like a MAC truck had decided to park on top of it for the remainder of the day.
Sympathetically, Foggy rested a hand on his friend's shoulder, looking at the ground, "You sure you're okay with this, Matt?"
He only thought about the question for a moment before nodding, "Yeah. It's time."
"Okay." Foggy stood with his friend for a second longer before patting his shoulder and going out to the waiting room to bring in the first applicant.
They weren't replacing Karen. They were just moving forward.
