Something I haven't been able to get out of my mind since watching the show is how close Matt is/can be to being a "bad guy". I don't mean in regards to the city; I don't think he'd ever be able to not feel like he has to do something to save Hell's Kitchen... but sometimes there's something really unsettling about him. Coupled with his capacity for violence, just, wow.
So I was just thinking, what if post-'Nelson v. Murdock' Matt just kind of snaps because he's afraid that he's going to lose Foggy, and ends up kind of taking him for himself. I'm not entirely sure how this would play out, but what's happening in my head is this:
Matt is totally in love with Foggy (his relationships don't last because of this, he regrets his reaction to Foggy's "handsome" comment, he's so attuned to Foggy that he can always tell where he is, etc.), and after the huge fight is convinced that Foggy's going to leave him. Matt sees Foggy sleeping with Marci as proof of this, so he obviously can't deal, and ends up essentially kidnapping Foggy and keeping him in this secret space (*insert MCU/comics logic*) and kind of dumping all his obsessed (and kind of delusional) love on Foggy. He keeps Foggy for about a month or two, and is so extreme (visiting before/after work, loads of dub-con sex, trying to make him happy by letting him look at their cases, etc.) that even in this short amount of time, Foggy is Stockholm Syndrome-d into loving Matt. So when Matt is sure Foggy won't leave him, he allows him to be *coughcough* found, and everything appears to go back to normal. In the end, Foggy is himself as usual at work, but basically does nothing apart from go to work with Matt, and go home with Matt and live and breathe MattMattMatt 24/7, which is exactly what Matt wants. Up to you if he's happy like that or not, but if he's happy, please him question the validity of his happiness!! Even when Foggy's having issues he isn't stupid.
Essentially, I want deep, mental health intensive, super sexy and dub con-y exploration of Dark!Matt and Foggy. And yeah, I realize that I'm totally going to hell for this.
Dark!Matt/Foggy - Intense obsession, eventual stockholm syndrome
