They Walk Among Us | comment |
A sci-fi/fantasy trope. Let's say, for instance, that you are a perfectly normal human being living in a perfectly normal house in a perfectly normal urban community. Every day you wake up, you go to work or to school, you come home and have dinner. You have perfectly normal friends and family you enjoy doing perfectly normal things with. Also, your neighbor is, say, a robot. And your robot neighbor lives in the perfectly normal house right next to yours. He also gets up every morning and goes on with his robot affairs. And as the both of you walk down the street, side by side, you meet other humans just like yourself, sure, but the robot community is there as well, minding their own business just like you do. And nobody thinks it's weird because, you see, they walk among you. That's the main gist of this trope: in an otherwise normal world not too different from our own, humans share the world with something distinctly nonhuman, or at least abnormal or fantastic; another sentient species, or a different kind of being altogether. Their presence in the world is not regarded differently in any way from how we look at all the different races and ethnic groups here. Needless to say, Fantastic Racism tends to ensue, but though this is a common staple, it's not a necessity. Related tropes include: Lions and Tigers and Humans... Oh, My! Unusually Uninteresting Sight Roger Rabbit Effect Fantastic Racism Mundane Fantastic Fantasy beings Walking Among Us is often a component of a Magic Realism setting. For beings who Walk Among Us without our knowledge, see Masquerade. Not to be confused with Among Us. |

Thursday Next blatantly plays with the Fantasy Kitchen Sink. The first of its two main "gimmicks" is that genetic engineering has allowed humans to resurrect several extinct animals, and as a result, mammoths migrate through Swindon, dodo birds are the popular pet of choice, and Neanderthals fight discrimination from humans and live in their own separate, politically anarchic (but peaceful) communities. The second gimmicks involves living literary characters. It's complicated. | |

The Bone Cousins in Bone. People remark that they're funny-looking a few times but it seems to be more of a case of them being from another part of the world. A later book show a more cosmopolitan city, with plenty of fey-like or gnome-like creatures, so it's no surprise the Bones would be ignored. | |

This essentially describes the Doctor's final plan to deal with the T-Virus in Dangerous Tenant; having determined the nature of the T-Virus, he intends to modify it into a new form that he calls 'the D-Virus', which will infect humanity and preserve the virus's existence without actually causing any kind of mutation to the subject and rendering them immune to infection from other strains of the virus. | |

Power Rangers: Power Rangers S.P.D. has aliens and humans living side by side in 2025. However, humans with powers are discriminated against, at least at the grade school level. By the year 3000 of Power Rangers Time Force, it went From Bad to Worse, with aliens still around, but humans' treatment of the mutants that are born when humanity's Designer Babies habit doesn't yield such good results revolting, traveling to the present, and becoming the villains of the series. Power Rangers Ninja Storm had a Mirror Universe where monsters were good and Rangers were bad, and Tori had to get the civilian versions of the villainous generals to rise up against the evil Rangers. Was it the fault of the Monster of the Week back in the main universe, or did Tori just dream it when she was injured? Yes, it's definitely one or the other. Power Rangers Mystic Force ends with integration between humans and the magical creatures who'd previously kept to their side of the dimensional barrier in the forest, after humans and magical creatures come together to restore the Rangers' powers via Clap Your Hands If You Believe. |

Any of Jim Henson's works involving the Muppets, but the effect was not handled the same way in every case. In Sesame Street, for example, humans and "monsters" recognized each other as different, but in The Muppets Show there were instances where ordinary humans and the Muppets were in perfectly equal standing. (As in, a humanoid muppet and a real human were both "human") | |

XCOM: Chimera Squad takes place 25 years after a successful Alien Invasion resulted in a Vichy Earth scenario, and five years after a resistance movement overthrew the alien "Elders." So humanity now has to coexist with not just the hybrid peacekeepers created by the alien regime, but also the various other races that served as the Elders' Battle Thralls: sectoids, mutons, vipers, and more. The game's setting of City 31 is one of the most successful examples of post-war integration, and even elected a hybrid mayor, but there's still undercurrents of tension between the races. The titular combat unit is thus an experiment of sorts, to see whether a collection of human, hybrid and alien operatives can form a cohesive team. | |

Stories set in the Sam & Fuzzy-verse past the Myth Arc are like this. The Masquerade has been well and truly broken, and at this point the sight of werewolves, robots, vampires and a dinosaur with a monocle has become normal to the average citizen, and Jess the shapeshifting slug monster has no problems getting Tinder dates while proudly displaying her species on her page (some Fantastic Racism is to be expected, but nothing systemic). | |

The Touhou Project takes place in a Fantastic Nature Preserve where humans, youkai, fairies, ghosts, deities, etc. coexist and regularly interact, and only a minority of named characters are human. It's by no means an integrated society, and the various groups tend to have their own territories, so youkai openly visiting the Human Village make the locals unhappy and uncomfortable, and those that cause trouble will probably be driven off by a youkai exterminator like the two main characters. Meanwhile, any humans who start poking around Youkai Mountain are likely to be chased away by the local kappa and tengu, and will probably be harassed by fairies along the way. While the Spell Card Rules the major players have agreed to provide a nonlethal means of conflict resolution, and an understanding that despite their taunting, Gensokyo's youkai won't try to eat people, this only applies to local humans - any outsiders who wander into Gensokyo and get caught outside the Human Village are fair game. | |

Questionable Content is set in an alternate-present Massachussetts where true Artificial Intelligence is common; the first AI characters are Robot Buddies like Pintsize who are initially treated like possessions, but an expanding cast of Robots with day jobs is introduced. It's mentioned that The Singularity passed and AIs were granted full citizenship without any particular hassle and, indeed, without most people noticing. | |

The The Conversion Bureau genre typically consists of the Kingdom of Equestria popping up on our Earth and setting a divisive cultural exchange in motion — whereas humans may not enter the Equestrian island, which is protected by an anti-human forcefield, many ponies travel and settle in human countries. In most iterations, racism and political strife on both sides usually destroys any chance for peaceful coexistence, and end with one side forcefully usurping the other. | |

Underworld (2003): Vampires and Lycans in Rise of the Lycans. The first two movies have a Masquerade, complete with shadowy corporate intermediaries and both in-house and third-party cleaner squads. | |

Power Rangers S.P.D. has aliens and humans living side by side in 2025. However, humans with powers are discriminated against, at least at the grade school level. By the year 3000 of Power Rangers Time Force, it went From Bad to Worse, with aliens still around, but humans' treatment of the mutants that are born when humanity's Designer Babies habit doesn't yield such good results revolting, traveling to the present, and becoming the villains of the series. | |

Ugly Americans is all about this trope. Earth is populated by all the strangest creatures the writers and artists can imagine, many of them from myth and folklore. The main character, Mark Lilly, is an employee of the US Department of Integration; his job is to aid the creatures at finding their way in American (and human) society. | |

Robots in the Robot Series. They're never treated as equivalent to humans, but the human response to them frequently echoes something from actual human history. Earth society resents them for displacing human labor (similar to the way many societies treat immigrants), while Spacer society treats them like slaves, generally ignoring them unless there's something they want a robot to do. | |

Family Guy features bipedal, sentient animals (such as deer or dogs) of human-like intelligence; who have (nearly) the same rights and privileges as humans (such as insurance policies). The main example would be Brian; who's allowed to drink alcohol, go to college, and even date human girls (a guy in the case of his cousin); all without anyone batting an eyelash. Usually. Sometimes the show treats Brian like a dog (conveniently ignoring the bipedalism and power of speech) when the plot calls for it. They even had Peter randomly shout "Ah! Talking dog!" before the break in one episode. In general, they go with whatever would be funnier in the circumstances. | |

Transformers bounces between this and Masquerade depending on the incarnation, where they are in the timeline, and what's more convenient for the plot. Transformers: Animated completely threw it out the window and everyone knows of their existence from the first episode. | |
