I love happy modern AUs and I even love angsty ones, but I'd love to see how Finn and Poe's relationship would look with some realistic and awful problems faced by a nonwhite LGBT couple in a white-dominated country (specifically the USA, though other countries with about the same racism are fine too) without it being too 1000% depressing.
Like, it's a good life, they're happy, but they still gotta deal with prejudice that comes with their sexuality and race.
And not even the overt "get outta my town" racism, but the covert, microaggression kind, where people fetishize Poe or think Finn is too unattractive for him or people having some preconceptions of them. Maybe somebody comments on how Latinos are "taking jobs" while Poe is right there, or maybe sweet, sweet Finn gets stopped by police at a random convenience store for no apparent reason.
+10000 bonus for best friend/sister Rey being fucking pissed at every turn for them (if you wanna turn this into OT3 Rey/Finn/Poe that'd be great too! Rey could be the angry protective girlfriend to her boys)
+4000000 bonus for some cultural stuff too, the two of them bringing a bit of home with them (Finn with Nigerian parents and heritage, maybe, and Poe as Guatemalan) and showing it in their daily lives
I know the prompt implies established relationship but it'd be totally amazing to see how they got together too
Finn/Poe, modern AU, realistic anti-black and/or anti-Latino racism+a hint of homophobia
