She was soothed, for the moment, by the woman’s comforting attitude. Too fast, with a poor attention span, led her right past the obvious injury that the other woman bore. However, Lena would likely discover the discomfort later, once her return had settled.

The years past had been difficult. Time spent bouncing about from base to base had taken a seriously toll on her. But Lena would recover, as she always, fuelled by her Overwatch friends and family.

“Oh, ‘ere an’ there, love! Toured a bi’, saw Egypt an’ Moscow and Los Angeles. 'ad a gran’ ol’ time. There was this one girl, bu’ i’ didn’t last, unfortunately. Worked too much, for a relationship. Don’t blame 'er.”

        FOR NOW, ALL athena could ask was that the ignore the elephant in the room. they could discuss the wound later, talk about the steps her father had taken to make her more comfortable. she would never be the same spry young thing before the injury, but that didn’t make her useless. 

        OVERWATCH NEEDED HER. 

        “SOMETIMES DIFFERENT PEOPLE need different things, love. that doesn’t make either of you bad people or bad for each other.” leaning over, athena pressed a kiss to lena’s forehead, then stepped back, to take her hand. “would you look to look around at all the changes and improvements winston and i have made? we’ve done so much since you last saw this place.”

     He stops dead. All hints of the smile leave his features, and in a mere moment does he revert all the way back to the cold, calculating murderer he was when she very first had her encounters with him. Every inch of progress drains away with one simple idea. He’s come so far, he’s done so much. There’s a long road ahead, but he’s past his point of no return. 

     ❛ I cannot do that. Nor will I. ❜ He removes his hand from hers, there’s no way he can walk the same path if she was to take this as her choice. ❛ If you wish to walk that road, I will not stop you. But be aware you will walk without me. ❜ He’s blunt, drained of all emotion again. Back to that frigid assassin he’s known to be when it comes down to business. ❛ My ends will justify the means I have gone to. There’s no return from where I stand. I will not see my efforts to waste so easily. I would rather be wiped from existence than give it up now. ❜

      HE SHUT DOWN, and it took all athena had to not grab his hand, pull him back to her. she knew any sudden movement would break the trust between them. anything seen as a threat could end with one or both of them hurt. she couldn’t risk that. she couldn’t risk losing him, not now that they were finally together. the reaper may have seen himself as a monster, but she knew better.

      SHE SAW GABRIEL within him. even if they were two separate entities, there was evidence of the man beneath the monster. he wasn’t getting rid of her this easily. 

     “DON’T DO THAT.” she takes a step forward, lifting her chin. the little android stands not even five feet, but still she feels every bit the goddess she once was. athena would not be dismissed. not by him; not by anyone. “do not cut yourself off from me because i said something you disagree with, reaper. you may think yourself too far gone, but the gentleness you’ve shown and how far you’ve come contradicts that.

      “YOU MAY THINK you have to do this, but you’re only letting them sink their claws further into you. don’t you deserve better than that? doesn’t gabe?”

calavcro.

     ❛ Yes I am. ❜ He states it as fact, though he quickly gives pause when her hand reaches his. Crimson irises from beneath black sockets flick down, focus on their hands together for the moments that pass by. When she speaks its enough to take some of the smile off his face. ❛ Ah. ❜ The unspoken ‘so it’s serious’ hangs in the air. He’ll let her lead this one, he has his trust in her.

was that the answer she wanted? no, of course not. but it was an answer. reaper wasn’t fleeing, taking gabriel with him. he remained by her side, and she appreciated that in him. leaning, the ai rested her head against his arm, closing her optics. 

“there’s been enough death, reaper. there’s been enough fighting. let’s just leave it all behind. forget overwatch. forget the un. they’ve controlled our lives enough. i’m tired of resisting their hold.”

[alalkomeneis]

@calavcro continued

    ❛ Did I do something wrong? ❜ Oh, does he play coy about it. Not taking it seriously for a moment. A grin sits under the mask; what hasn’t he done that can technically be classified as wrong?

“you are not funny.” despite her words, she’s smiling, blue optics bright. a hand extends, to intertwine their fingers. a moment passed, then two. emotions pounded in her chest, tightened in her throat. “let’s leave.”

[alalkomeneis]

HANZO.

the shimada gives a subtle smile. he’s unsure what’s so good about him that someone would be excited to finally meet him, as she had put it. he wouldn’t make that obvious though. 

he offers a small, polite bow.

the archer hums, ❝ mostly good things, i’d like to assume, ❞ he says a bit jokingly.

“Nothing but good things, actually,” replied the other, beaming up at him. Though she knew more about the Shimada clan than others would ever know, Athena preferred to keep need-to-know information close to her chest. It made things easier. “I do hope Gibraltar has been treating you well. Can I get you anything?”

[alalkomeneis]

so like, eight in the morning. i am deadass asleep. and then i wake up to this cacophony of “GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY HOUSE! GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY HOUSE!”

faye walks into our bedroom and is yelling this and you know, when you’re asleep and you hear this, your brain does not put the pieces together. so i wake up to this and my first reaction is “holy shit. what did i do??? what did i fucking do????”

i look up at faye with horror and mumble something incoherent in my confusion and faye fuckin responds

“oh not you, baby, i’m doing a cleansing spell.”

and then proceeds with their yelling and starts throwing salt water everywhere
