Please forgive my trashness and bear with me a sec. Today for some reason (like seriously I have no clue what prompted the tought) I imagined Foggy as a centaur and I bet he'd look so friggin cute and aaawed. Then I started playing with an actual scenario and gave myself feels.
So what if he lives in a world were centaurs and other creatures lives more or less peacefully with humanity, but not-human living beings doesn't usually live in big cities like NY. Maybe they preferr to keep to themselves in clans and have their space where there's less concrete and more green. I can imagine that centaurs especially likes to have the space to run freely. And not all humans are so accepting of non-human creatures so while they manage to co-exist rather peacefully the road is not without many bumps. Maybe Foggy's family has always lived between humans and they don't want to change that despite how hard it can get. Foggy may still have grown up in Hell's Kitchen, learning to be patient and understanding and grown up to be his amazing, smart lovable self, only on four legs. Then he goes to college and him and Matt become best buddies (and they can share the pain of having people asking them stupid questions all the time. I have this scene of Foggy casually saying that he gets people asking him if they can get a ride all the time and Matt getting SO MAD on his behalf that Foggy gets scared Matt might snap someone's neck right there stuck in my mind.). How's their life? What are the difficulties of living into a city like NY when you are generally bigger than the average human and on four legs? How's their friendship? Are they still embarassingly married? (Yes plz I ship these two like there's no tomorrow) What kinds of discriminations Foggy has to put up with? What if his career choice, his friendship choice, is frowned upon by others of his species? Is a romantic relationship with a human considered taboo?
I could on for a mile more about this, so I'll stop myself and let others in the sandpit if they want to play. (Please come play with me It'd be great!)
Foggy is a centaur (gen or matt/foggy)
