Random Fred headcanon
Okay, so like, it's well established Fred isn't very much into science like the others, he's a nerd for comic books and a general weirdo but he's not some like genius or scientist. Buttttt what I would think would be really funny and kinda cool was if he was a historical armor nerd. Like, hear me out. He's established to be a sci-fi and I'm not fully sure on if he likes fantasy (I haven't finished re-watching BH6 the series) but I'd imagine he probably does. And I think he'd probably get really into a DnD style game, look at the armor, get mildly interested, then start reading it inbetween the different comic books he's into and then get really into historical armor. He comes from wealth so I think he'd probably try to collect historical armor and maybe try to make some cosplay historical armor. Like, I feel like he'd watch those videos online talking about female fantasy and sci-fi armor and how it isn't protective and would learn about some of the arteries and organs that you'd need to protect and then be oddly knowledgeable about armor and like, protecting the human body with it. Like, he's no med student, but I think after a while he'd be painfully aware about how some of the team's suits don't protect them as much as they could. How I would think this is funny is that what if Hiro was trying to do some repairs on their suits and needed some new ideas and Fred just brings up some historical armor pieces, and maybe point out how like, Gogo's suit doesn't protect a lot of her vital organs on her abdomen or the arteries in her thighs, or how Wasabi's fails to protect his legs all that much while his upper body is protected, which considering that Wasabi uses Plasma blades he'll be closer up to opponents and would logically need leg protection and more fully body protection. I think it would be so funny if Fred just randomly brought up how their armor isn't super protective or covers vital areas and everyone just looks at him dumbfounded for a moment that he said something very smart yet very obvious, because like, nobody expects Fred to bring up how their armor isn't protecting certain areas. (I know this is sci-fi and they could be using materials on that area that are protective, but like, for example, Gogo's black body suit type thing is skin tight, the black parts on her abdomen are skin tight and inherently less protective than if the yellow plating type armor went further down her abdomen to protect the vital organs there. Hiro: This is going to be a pain to fix *looks at his computer trying to look at the models for the team's suits* Fred: *Peers over Hiro's shoulder* "You know Gogo's suit doesn't protect her Femoral Artery or her vital organs, you should put some protection there." Gogo: "Since when did you know what the Femoral Artery is????"
