I feel like it doesn't fully hit Nick that Judy has protection from the zootopia version of the Italian mob for saving Fru Fru untill the second movie and Mr Big is willing to do anything to help them get into hiding. His Bunny has so many connections and if she was anyone else that would be so bad. But because she's Judy she's so good. And Judy doesn't fully realize that, but Nick does. Nick would have died if it wasn't for his connection to Judy saving him from Mr Big. Because eventually the mob would have caught him.
needlessly detailed queer hcs for the zootopia cast bc i'm going insane (n also this was really fun)
put it under the cut bc this is VERY LONG be warned okay. only contains 2016 characters bc i'm planning to make a part 2 for the gang from the second one :]
JUDY: she/her cis aroace bisexual. was mildly interested in the idea of romance as a teen + pressured by her extended family to settle with a partner. bonnie and stu weren't overt with it (unlike gram gram) but that was still the most expected outcome. she's dated some mammals but none of these relationships ever grew into anything meaningful bc it just wasn't what judy truly wanted! her very special connection with nick wasn't anything she's ever felt before, not to mention that their meeting lowkey changed her life forever so yeah you guessed it they've got a secret third queerplatonic thing going on. she's fully indifferent towards sex too. no new babies for the hopps fam!!
NICK: he/sometimes she cis(?) pan demirose. okay walk with me here, he's a dude but he loves to fag it up once in a while. i think he enjoys cross-dressing on occasion and it all started when he had to dress up as a vixen after too many citizens began to recognize him as finnick's "dad" during the scams. still does it for any undercover missions and has absolutely made judy to be the guy at least once. i feel the need to mention that they're in a qpr once again 💗 IT'S MY WORLD YOU CANNOT TAKE THIS HC AWAY FROM ME THAT'S HIS CLEVER BUNNY!!!!!
FINNICK: he/him cis straight man but he's an ALLY 💪 he fully does not care about what other animals get up to. i will say though that lesbians have probably mistaken him as a stone butch a few times
CLAWHAUSER: he/they "i'm probably nonbinary but i got a job so idrc about that right now". and GAY. this is very specific but i like to believe they're in that phase where he's like "oh yeah you can use they for me i don't mind!" even though deep down he is in fact Not Entirely A Man. i swear only a queer could love gazelle as much as benjamin does
CHIEF BOGO: he/him trans bisexual alertttt! once again extremely specific vision that i pulled out of my own ass (head), nothing to back it up except my imagination. i actually have a lot of bogo hcs that are baseless assumptions, it's fun. just think of that b99 clip that's like "if you do not give me what i want i will release proof that you are bisexual" "i came out 30 years ago." "GAHH YOU'RE IMPOSSIBLE"
PRISCILLA: she/they trans woman!!! i feel it i know it in my heart!!! look at her and tell me she's cis. feel like she's straight bc fiction needs more straight trans people rep
FLASH: he/they trans as WELL he's transsloth4transsloth with prissy <3 omni. don't question it it's in the vibes
FRU FRU: she/her SAPPHIC she is a sapphic rodent to me if not a lesbian. i know she marries a guy but waahhhh don't you see how awesome it could've been if she was the heir to a whole entire mafia AND SAPPHIC!!! also lil judith having 2 mamas makes me extremely emotional for no reason ,,,
GAZELLE: she/any pan and poly. PAN AND POLY. she's like the embodiment of the concept of freedom and happiness and diversity in this city, i know for a fact she's dating all her funky background dancers
BELLWETHER: homophobic homosexual HAA okay i'm kidding she's probably cishet. does not support gay animals not bc she's actually homophobic but bc there's too much hatred in her heart for all living things in general
GIDEON: he/him cis gay. you agree. just look at his hair come on
