Re: Fic Recs thread (unsolicited recs, requests, etc.)

[(Anonymous)]

This was the first one that popped into my head, I adore it so much: http://archiveofourown.org/works/3844489 because I am a sucker for Matt and Foggy focused genfic (and Foggy getting upset on Matt's behalf) and also for Matt's blindness having a frustrating impact on his life because sure he can sense shapes and heartbeats and he's a ninja but he is still blind.

And on that note, this one too: http://archiveofourown.org/works/3878332

Also, there's protective-if-my-bff-is-getting-stabbed-every-night-and-I-can't-stop-that-I-can-at-least-try-and-learn-to-put-him-back-together Foggy: http://archiveofourown.org/works/3789040

As for what I'd want, more gen Matt and Foggy (yes I know this is a kink meme but I'm ace so I just adore them loving each other and being platonic bffs). Also I would kinda like to see some more stuff at L&Z, especially surrounding Matt and any way they reacted to and helped (or didn't) with his blindness.

Agreed. I can't really get behind any ships in this fandom besides the good ship Matt/Happiness, which I'd love to see more of. I prefer Matt and Foggy as epic best friends, so while I know fandom is usually all about the sex I'd love to see a lot more focusing on their friendship. College exploits, awkward adventures as interns, everyday drama as they are out and about in the city, whatever.

Have you read this?

It's a whole series with a focus on Matt's senses, but there's some pretty great Foggy & Matt friendship bits in there related to how Foggy learns about/deals with Matt's heightened senses throughout their friendship. It also hits the note you mentioned about Matt's blindness being frustrating for him and times when his other senses don't really make up for it.
