So in my head, the extended Nelson clan are kind of like the MCU's version of the Weasleys. Big, not amazingly well off but full of heart. So what if they had powers as well?

Basically, Foggy comes from a whole family with the mutant X gene. They never have big scale powers, and he's only a little bit disappointed when puberty passes and he doesn't manifest anything. He's happy enough being a normal, regular guy.

Until one day, something attacks him and Matt (and Karen) and either Matt's caught off guard or knocked out and Foggy desperately wants to be able to do something to save his friend.

Which is when he rather expectedly manifests his mutant power and saves them both.

Anons choice as to whether this is a small power that just happened to be really effective at the time, like limited weather control or shielding, or whether it's something that will actually effect his everyday life from now on, like wings, or horns or whatever.

Yessss!!! What about a power that he needs to learn to control ? What if it manifests when he's stressed ? knowing his best friend is Daredevil that must happen quite a lot... Maybe something a bit scary ? so that Foggy is terrified about his family/people knowing ???

Ooooh, do want.

...And I second the idea of the Nelson clan being like the Weasleys.

OMG this is awesome. There was a mutant Foggy prompt back in the first post, and someone back there mentioned something that I'm going to repeat because it was awesomely true. Foggy was totally freaked out by the whole listening to heartbeats thing that Matt can do, so how would he react to having an ability of his own??

So going off at a tangent, if gauging whether somebody is lying by listening to their heartbeat is invasive, what if Foggy was some kind of a telepath? How would he deal with something like that?

*grins evilly* Your thoughts are also my thoughts, anon.

You are both evil and is there still a place in hell next to you?

There's room for any anon who wants to try writing it..!

You want creepy and invasive and something he'd feel bad about? With the added bonus of making *both* of them suffer?

...make him a touch telepath.

Factor that into the casual, comfortable, affectionate contact that is so common between them. Now Foggy's afraid to touch (and misses it bitterly) and matt's afraid to ask for it (and misses it bitterly).

Super duper angst bonus: Raise the question of whether or not Foggy has any projective ability.

Aagh, anon, you are a genius. An evil genius.

(And I'm seriously tempted by this...)

Ahahaha. Thank you. (I think.)

Go for it! The more the merrier! Love to see what people make of it. (And I could use the company in being a terrible person.)

Actually, the more I think about it, if you want to follow OP's suggestion that Foggy save them/himself, the more you'd need to incorporate the idea that he can influence via touch. So he's being held hostage - like, someone's arm wrapped round his neck from behind or something - and he talks the guy down. And somehow he knew *exactly* what to say and could *make* the guy listen to him.

...and now I'm making *myself* want to cry because you *know* that Foggy would jump to the conclusion that he *made* Matt become friends with him. Goddamn it, I can't decide if I want to write this or if I want to forget that the idea ever crossed my mind. D:

The former. You definitely want to write this.

...I really kind of do. (And thanks!)

Do it! Or I will and yours sounds much more epic.

Hee! Thanks! :D Feel free, though! I very much doubt the OP will mind multiple fills.

Re: Matt/Foggy or Gen: Foggy is a latent mutant

(Anonymous) - 2015-06-02 21:51 (UTC) - Expand

I am a third author!anon who was not involved in the discussion but I really really like the idea of Foggy as a shielding mutant so have this small thing...

Matt had smiled and shook Foggy's Dad's hand the first time they met without hesitation not even flinching at the rough, scale like skin. Later, Foggy's Dad had commented to his son that he'd known for sure Matt was blind then as no one had ever shaken his hand without at least a minor flinch.

Foggy had disagreed that Matt's common courtesy had had anything to do with his blindness but kept it to himself. It wasn't his place to comment, not as the only non-mutant in the family.

'Your very large family.' Matt always says when Foggy describes them as anything other than that. He's not wrong; Foggy's one of six with at least a couple of dozen cousins (on both sides) and then there's all their kids... and all of them some form of mutant. It gets confusing at Christmas, though it can be easier to identify some cousins than others.

Matt loves it though, hiding in a corner but still somehow part of everything. He's never had a problem with Foggy's family's status nor the fact that Foggy, while not a mutant, is most definitely a carrier of the X gene. It's... refreshing. Foggy's had his fair share of issues just coming from his family without half the shit everyone else has suffered.

Not that Foggy would be upset if he was a mutant. He spent half his life waiting for it to happen. But hey, it didn't so time to move on and save the world by lawyer-ing instead.

Course Foggy never expected to actually manifest. Not this late.

********

If Foggy hadn't been with Matt, walking home from Josie's, it never would have happened. Of course, if Foggy hadn't been with Matt, Matt would have died.

It's a fair exchange.

Matt's laughing, pleasantly drunk and it's feeling like that night before graduation again. Foggy's drunk too, and he's got his arm over Matt's shoulders and they're laughing together. It's just like old times.

His hand on Matt's shoulder means he feels Matt tense a half second before the baseball bat collides with Matt's head. Matt drops.

'Shit!' Foggy throws himself over his friend's body as the bat is swung again- he can feel the breeze over his head as he half falls, half dives to the ground.

'Oops, missed.' The man laughs and Foggy does the only thing he can. He grabs at Matt and tries to drag him away.

He must take the man by surprise because he's halfway into a nearby alleyway before he reacts. 'Where are you going to go?' he calls. Foggy ignores him and places Matt sitting up beside a dumpster in the shadows, hoping to hide him from sight until Matt regains consciousness and can kick this arseholes' butt.

'Got you.' Foggy looks up and there he is. A tall man with a baseball bat and it takes Foggy a second to place him as the bastard whose case they'd refused not five hours ago. Thomas? Thompson? T something at least. A man so guilty Foggy hadn't needed Matt to tell him not to take it.

He'd also been a complete arsehole to Matt because of his blindness and Foggy doesn't like the way he's eyeing what he can see of Matt. Desperate, he tries to hide Matt completely from view using his own body.

'What do you want?' He places a hand on Matt's chest behind him and tries to reassure himself it's still moving.

'What I deserve.' He swings again and Foggy ducks his head, tensing for the blow that's going to break his skull and leave Matt open to this monster and he's so sorry; oh God, protect Matt please-

Something warm surges through him and the bat never connects. Instead there's a choked off breath and the thump of a body - and bat - hitting the ground.

Foggy looks up and freezes.

The alleyway is still dark but the area around him is lit by the bright blue bubble surrounding him and Matt. It takes a moment but he focuses and he can feel the edge of it, where it touches ground and wall. Suddenly holding it up feels like holding a mountain and he sighs, unsurprised when it retreats into him and leaves the alleyway dark again.

Without the distraction of the bubbly thing, Foggy can see T-bastard on the ground, bat by his side. His face is bleeding and Foggy's sure that what ever that bubble thing was, it caused the force of the bat to rebound into the arsehole's face.

He should feel guilty but look what he did to Ma- MATT!

Foggy digs his phone out and turns to Matt, running a hand over his bleeding head. He can panic later, for now Matt needs him.

'911, what is your emergency?'

********

'Home sweet home!'

Matt sighs and shakes his head, before wincing at the movement. 'It's your place not mine.'

'Mi casa es su casa.' While Matt only had a minor concussion, he'd been determined to not stay the night for observation. Unable to hold him, the doctors had at least advised Matt spend the night with someone. So Foggy has dragged Matt to his home.

'Your accent is awful,' Matt says as he shuffles to Foggy's couch and takes a painful sounding seat. 'And I can't see why we couldn't go to my place. It's bigger.'

Foggy laughs. 'Like I'm going to have my ninja of a friend anywhere near his superhero suit when he has a concussion.'

Matt gives him a half-hearted glare but takes the point, relaxing into the couch. 'Maybe Daredevil will come by here instead,' he says with a smile. 'Fight off our attacker for us again.'

There's a note of anger in his voice but Foggy refuses to be made to feel guilty about lying by Matt Murdock. 'I needed a lie okay, about how we got out of that alleyway alive.' He shrugs. 'That worked as well as any. Not like anyone else knows it could be a lie.'

'Oh,' Matt says, the anger gone from his voice and replaced by hurt. 'And why are you lying?'

Foggy's going to have to tell him. He knows this. 'I need time to process how we did get out of there alive.'

'Okay.' Matt looks away and he's not going to push, Foggy suddenly realises. He's going to let Foggy have this secret.

And suddenly Foggy doesn't want to have it anymore. 'We got out of there because I'm a mutant.'

Matt cocks his head. 'I know tha- Oh. Really? You... manifested?'

'Yes.'

There's a long moment of silence. Then, 'Okay. Thank you.' And the amount of delight in Matt's voice makes Foggy want to hug him because his voice is also judgement free.

So Foggy does. Matt freezes for a moment then puts his head on Foggy's shoulder. Foggy will have to explain completely soon but for now, they can sit here and just be alive and not dead avocados.

The best damn not dead avocados.

Awwwwww

This is so cute, awww.

Awww, cuties. <3

Omg, ALL of the Awwwwws for this! Foggy as a shielding mutant - perf!

I almost wish this was on ao3 so that i could kudos and bookmark! SO GOOD.

Your wish is my (very late) command. Merry Christmas.
