#post-cog au

[bh6-au-ideas]

That was completely unexpected. I never intended for the post-cog AU to be a dark one, but it's a good one though! Set in the same AU, both Tadashi & Aunt Cass has similar abilities. For Tadashi's, he could absorb & memorize the contents of every informations (both manual & digital) through physical contact with the objects (books, computers, etc.) where said informations were kept in. For Aunt Cass', she could feel the emotion of one's feelings whenever she touches him/her.

In my defense, I wasn’t expecting that post-cog AU to be dark either. It just kinda happened :D

As for other people’s powers, those make SO much sense. That’s how Tadashi managed to fill Baymax with all this medical information when it should have taken him YEARS to just learn it himself, let alone code it. And that’s why Aunt Cass’ cafe is so popular. She just knows how you’re feeling without you ever having to tell her, and she always has a cookie for you when you need it.

She gets a LOT of dark vibes off of Hiro after the fire. I mean, a LOT.

A BH6 AU where Hiro has a strange habit of wearing gloves all the time because he has the ability to see one's memories of his/her past through physical contact (like hand shakes, shoulder grip/pat, etc.). Some people are avoiding him because of it, thinking that their secrets won't be save whenever he's around. Others like his two families and four friends, are accepting, thinking that Hiro would be able to understand them better through his visual communication power.

Oh gosh, this is one of the coolest powers and honestly I don’t think people do enough with this because come on. THINK OF THE POSSIBILITIES, especially if his post-cog powers aren’t limited to human contact.

Imagine, after the fire, Hiro sneaks into the wreckage to search for some sign of Tadashi. He’s grieving, and he’s not thinking clearly, but he wants some form of closure, and he thinks maybe if he can see Tadashi’s final moments he’ll get that. But he learns so much more when his hands brush the twisted and melted metal that is all that remains of the showcase hall.

Think of how fast the plot of the movie would accelerate if Hiro knew exactly what had happened days afterward. He wouldn’t be able to go to the police, because then he’d have to reveal his powers, so he’d instantly be looking into ways to get revenge on his own. Maybe he ends up back in the darker parts of San Fransokyo, because he knows a few people from bot fighting who are willing to do anything for the right incentive. And what better to use his powers for than blackmail material?

Three days after the fire, Yama is ordering his Fujitas to do anything Hiro tells them, and when questioned he refuses to meet anyone’s eyes. The Fujitas learn to fear Hiro just as much as they respect him, and they are quick to do his bidding.

Imagine a much darker Hiro with the power to know your deepest, darkest secrets with the single brush of skin on skin, surrounded by the lovely but deadly Fujitas, ready to get revenge for his fallen brother.

Callaghan wouldn’t stand a chance.
