I want to see an AU where Matt becomes the object of fascination for a serial killer. Matt is kidnapped and Bad Things Happen, but he manages to escape before the man takes his life. I'm thinking a passing commuter finds him on the side of the road and brings him to the hospital where Foggy enters the story.
Foggy, who loves justice and decided to become a cop instead of a lawyer, and has been on this case for five years and cannot believe the break he has in Matt. They might be able to stop this guy! Cue his disappointment when he discovers his only witness is blind, but then he meets Matt and his assumptions are blown out of the water. Matt doesn't have radioactively enhanced senses but he is smart and observant, and maybe even stole something one-of-a-kind off the guy that leads them to identify him. Except the killer's smart and he's abandoned his hideout, and is on a warpath for Matt, the one that got away.
I'm looking for sweetheart but reclusive and stoic Matt (who is not a lawyer in this story either, occupation up to you) dealing with major emotional and some physical trauma from the incident, and tough-as-nails Foggy who is softened by Matt, and starts resembling something more like the Foggy we know on the show the more he spends time with Matt. The guys are both in their 30s and have been hurt by others before, so the trust they build is a slow and delicate thing.
I'd prefer if the killer were an OMC, but I would love to see our favorite supporting characters pop up in other ways. Claire could easily remain a nurse specializing in trauma, and Ben could be covering the story for the past 5 years.
I think it'd be interesting to have Fisk, billionaire powerhouse, involved in the case peripherally. Perhaps Vanessa was murdered in Year 2 or 3 and Fisk can't help but feel some resentment towards Matt. Why did you survive and she didn't? Perhaps he and Wesley arrange their own operation outside of Foggy and the force that puts Matt in danger, but successfully uses him as bait so Fisk can kill the killer himself.
Overall, I'm looking for something really gritty and angsty and dark. I'm totally okay with uncomfortable themes like humiliation (OMC leaving Matt in his filth as punishment for fighting back, for example) or forced drugging or something even harsher (non-con). It's up to you how far you're comfortable going, but I love me some angst in any form.
I'd prefer the POV to not be Matt's.
I picture Foggy looking something like this in this AU: http://images.hngn.com/data/images/full/78116/elden-henson.jpg

Despite the fact this prompt is ridiculously specific and choosy, I really would be happy reading anything with this theme. :)
Matt/Foggy AU, Matt is only victim to escape serial killer, Foggy is the tough detective on the case
