#;;soldier 76 interaction

[dawnthefox24]

Okay so I made a few Fanon interactions since I want Hanzo and Genji to talk/some of the heroes to mention at least Rumiko once or something! Cause she is mentioned once in "Where Honour Lives" and I want to hear interactions. I just hope the devs/writers don't ruin Rumiko's character because deep down if she "Abandoned" what caused her to leave(Knowing me my blame will always be on the elders!)

Also I only have a few characters in mind which of course the main are Hanzo and Genji since well duh that there momma! ~~~~~

Mei: Wow Hanzo your carving skills have improved, if you don't mind me asking who taught you how to carve? Was it your father? Hanzo:*sighs* Actually it was my mother...She taught me how to carve....

~~~~

Genji: Hanzo...I forgive You, you need to know that. Hanzo: I know you forgive Me. I'm just thinking about someone else I've lost... Genji: Father would be proud of us you know that.. Hanzo: I was thinking about Mother....OUR mother Genji...

Genji: Hanzo do you remember mother? How she would teach us compassion and empathy? Hanzo: *chuckles softly*Yes, though I do remember she tried to teach us how to cook, you set the water on fire. Genji: *embarrassed* That was a one time thing!! Besides you chickened out of cooking remember!! Hanzo:*is now embarrassed* WH- No! I just! I just didn't want her to-!! Shut up!

Hanzo: I sometimes wonder if mother ever truly loved us... Genji: Anjia she loved us, mother really loved us. Hanzo:*is fighting back tears*..If she loved us then ask me this Genji...Why did she leave us?! Why!? Why did she abandon us...why did she leave me....

Genji: Brother do you remember mother fighting with the elders. Hanzo: Sadly yes I remember...I had to hold you and Kiri as I closed my eyes while they screamed at each other. Genji: What where they fighting about... Hanzo: I-I don't know...I don't even remember...

*In Hanamura/Kanezaka* Hanzo: Sometimes I wonder if mother is alright...I miss her so much.... Genji: I-I miss her too anjia...

Genji: Do you think she would hate me? Hanzo: Who,Asa or Kiriko? Genji:...Our mother...After what happened when I allowed Overwatch and Blackwatch to take down the Shimada clan...Allowing the Hashimoto clan to take over... Hanzo:...That isn't my call to make...I'm not sure how she'll react if she is still alive....

~~~~

Soldier 76: I've always wondered something.. . Genji: And what would that be? Soldier 76: You and your brother never seem to talk about your mother, last I checked Overwatch didn't have your mother's name on file. Genji: Our mother wasn't active in the clan, she was always helping out the citizens.

~~~~

Kiriko: Do you guys remember when Rumiko, your mother carved me a kunai. Hanzo: Yes and your mother had to make sure you did chew on a real kunai. Kiriko: What no! That's not true! Genji: I mean you kept chewing on the wood one but then got a splinter...

Kiriko:...Hanzo you alright? Hanzo:..I just wondered if my mother ever truly loved me.... Kiriko:...I'm sure she does it's just, that there must have been a reason for it Hanzo. Hanzo: What reason was it that caused her to leave me...the clan...everyone.... Kiriko:...I don't know....

Kiriko: Hey I need some help since I know the others won't be able to ask you. Sombra: Well aren't you a curious fox, why do you need my help? Kiriko: I need you to find someone, her name is Rumiko Shimada... Sombra: You know I don't do this for free. Kiriko: I'll give you one of the Hashimoto weapons, you can upgrade or maybe downgrade it to how ever you like... Sombra: Hmm you got yourself a deal zorro.(fox)

Kiriko: Any luck, finding their mother? Sombra: Aye is like looking through a needle in a hay stack...Are you sure she isn't you know like dead? Kiriko: Is she? Sombra:...Good point, through you may have to up the price since I'm getting bored with the weapons they to break easily...

Kiriko: You know I realised something... Hanzo: And what that might be Kiriko: I think my mom liked you mom Hanzo: I mean they were friends... Kiriko:...Hmm Hard pass.

~~~~

Sombra: Hey Shimada's, I have a question for you. Hanzo: Whatever it is, were not interested in it... Sombra: No I'm not asking you to join Talon. I have some better things to do, but I do have a question about your mother. Genji: Our mother isn't your business... Sombra: Sheesh touchy subject....

Hanzo: Why do you care about our mother. Sombra: that zorro friend of yours paid me... Hanzo: zorr-Kiriko.... Sombra: Yup, though I'll say this...She's a bit hard to find which is very unusal and your zorro friend better pay up for making me do all of this effort!

Sombra: Hey Shimada's how can your mother a normal civilian just disappear!! Hanzo: I don't know maybe you should call her and ask her that yourself... Sombra: She's making my job harder for me! Genji: But isn't that your job...Tracking people? Sombra: De todas las cosas que podría estar haciendo tengo que encontrar a su madre… (Out of all the things I could be doing I have to find their mother…)

~~~~~

Yeah that's about it with the fanon interactions but I really hope the writers don't mess her up to badly and who knows I might add another Fanon interaction for Rumiko.

Also I know google translate is inaccurate, which is why I have it in the tags.

[cyberbirb-arts]

Realized that Hanzo and Soldier 76 have never had any spawn interactions. (Don't recall if Genji has said anything either - my memory's bad.) It's a bit strange to me that 76 has only had a discussion with Kiriko in-game. Thought it would be neat to write a few just for fun.

76: "Yet another criminal has joined us. Makes sense."

Hanzo: "Have you not also betrayed your family and comrades?"

76: "Huh! A smartass just like your brother."

76: "Will that bow survive a blast out in the field?"

Hanzo: "...Will you?"

76: "Even in his worst moments, Genji looked up to you."

Hanzo: "It is...common for the youngest sibling to look up to the oldest."

76: "Hm. And what's left of you to be proud of now?"

Genji: "I am proud that he's here, fighting alongside me. Now, can we stop this?"

We finally got a wave of new interactions for Tracer!... and they still don't have an interaction with Soldier: 76. Pain.

It kills me that when Jack got a wave of new interactions so many seasons ago, he got an interaction with Illari about her bringing her baggage onto the field, and now, Lena gets an interaction where we are once again reminded that Illari is sad. I don't hate Illari! I think she's a very interesting character, and there's especially a lot to expand on with her apparent ties with Talon, but most of her interactions are all the same! As a side note, I feel like the Illari interaction is just a duplicate of the one Lena has with Ashe. Yes, Lena tries to look on the bright side of life, we get it. They couldn't somehow show that Lena has faced a LOT of trauma and is absolutely a wreck beneath their cheerful exterior this time around?

Illari aside, I like the interactions Lena has with Juno. I love the mental picture of Lena and Winston canonically walking around Mexico and talking to the locals like "Excuse me, have you seen a purple-haired girl with a fishbowl on her head around here lately?"

Then, there's an interaction Lena got with Moira where they say "Overwatch is here to stay, and we're coming for you next."

(Whoa, like how Jack says "Tell Doomfist I'm coming for him," when he eliminates Talon members! Irrefutable proof that he is LITERALLY Lena's adoptive father! /j)

I love when the writers bring out Lena's angry side, like when they say "How dare you come back here!" upon eliminating Widowmaker in King's Row, and I also miss their interaction with Sombra where they say "It wouldn't be a problem if you just disappeared forever!"

However, they also got two interactions with Ramattra. I sense the director didn't tell Cara Theobold one was for PvP rather than PvE because of how little energy it has, but in the other one, they say "That's enough out of you." I get Ramattra has affected countless omnic lives, especially those back in London after the backlash of his uprising, and I know Lena is very naive and tends to think in black and white, but I just find it weird that they get that nasty of an interaction with Ramattra before they do with many of Talon's members.

With Talon, they say "Manners maketh the man!" when eliminating its male members, "I've been waiting for that!" when eliminating any of its members, "Au revoir!" or "Splat went the spider!" when eliminating Widowmaker, and "Hack your way out of that!" when eliminating Sombra. These are all fine, but my problem lies with them not getting any sort of nasty interaction with Doomfist. They only say "Not catching me this time!" upon eliminating him while he's using Seismic Slam. Where's your anger, Lena? Where's your fucking rage? RISE! RISE! RISE!

Lastly, in light of Reaper getting an interaction with Sojourn where he hints that he does have a soft spot for his old friends in Overwatch, I hoped he would get an interaction with Lena in this update. I still believe that he envied Lena because of how Jack treated them and found them unworthy of being an Overwatch agent, and I think it would've been interesting to have a sort of interaction where he's like "Back to trying to be the hero with Overwatch, huh? Because your first three years as an agent went so well..." and they respond like "At least I'm not a terrorist, Gabe! I mean, um. Commander Reyes, sir..."

TL;DR: Give Tracer an interaction with Soldier: 76 and let them get angry and have frivolous beef with the baddies more often. Please and thank you.

[scarlet-streak-rambles]

Ok so I’m playing Overwatch with my dad, right? I’m Reaper, he’s Ana, so we get that one interaction talking about Soldier:76

Reaper: Tell Jack to stop chasing me.

Ana: I tried. He wouldn’t listen.

Reaper: Isn’t that just like him?

It’s a cool interaction, lets us know what Soldier’s doing since he isn’t really with the recalled Overwatch, awesome. However, there’s one issue: we had a Soldier:76 on our team, so instead of a conversation about an old friend it seemed like Reaper being passive aggressive like a kindergartener. “Tell Jack I’m not talking to him.” “He’s not talking to you either.” “Asshole.”

[lovingoverwatchguys]

Something I really like about the Soldier 76 and Cassidy dynamic is that, even though Jack was the Commander in charge of everyone, there doesn't seem to be much pressure between them. They're often pretty lighthearted and laid-back with each other; Jack's silly memory of Cassidy and the stapler is such a good sign of this. That's the kind of memory that he feels nostalgia over during his PTSD meltdown, with the implication that losing simple and fun interactions with the people he cares about in Overwatch is part of what hurts him so much.

Now, when Cassidy talks to Reaper, the tension is extreme; I don't think Cassidy speaks with that much anger towards pretty much anyone else. And even with Ana, Cassidy shows a type of respect towards her that doesn't feel like they're equals, even though it is a positive relationship. Meanwhile, Jack and Cassidy prod and tease each other in a much more banter-y way. (I know the in-game interactions aren't canon, but I think they do generally match the emotional dynamics). I think that's oddly sweet? It's something that's simpler and has less baggage, which has its own type of value.

...I just realized that I'm basically implying that Jack is more accessible because he's too cringe to look up to. LOL

[heavysass]

as much as i generally like the new reaper-sojourn interaction, as it is nice getting any ties of chase to the og overwatch team and knowing reyes had friends even when his reputation was on its lowest, it also makes the thing they are hellbent on avoiding so much more noticeable

why is one of overwatch's most notable critics, and in that probably one of the biggest haters of blackwatch and their deals, the one offering comfort to the worst offender? and not, you know, his best friend? one of the very few who are actively worried about him as far as current canon lore tells us? at least his protégé who is due to an actual confrontation with him? tbh /to me/ this interaction feels like it could've worked better with anyone else from the strike team, but exposition on why gabriel went to talon concerns jack and cassidy above all else

it genuinely is so strange seeing how connected characters all have something to say to each other even in the non-canon limbo that is in game interactions, but the gabriel-jack bond, which is one of the actual bases of the whole story, and which often shows up when these two are concerned in the extra lore content because it is pretty unavoidable to their characters, seems to be actively glossed over in game /where it actually matters/. they have mean rivalry kill chatter against each other and that is it. all you get is the knowledge soldier 76 is actively following reaper now, no reasons beyond taking talon down. if your only contact with overwatch is what is currently in game and the famous cinematics you could never guess their importance to each other's build up, when every other iconic duo, as ow is obsessed with yin-yang types, has at least some solid nods going on (sounds silly to people who care about any of this, but go check any lore explanation video comment section on youtube and see how many casuals are only vaguely aware of the lore through in game interactions and second hand word)

(it is awkward, since we are getting these little but thoughtful interactions scrapped off pve recently to half the cast. even OW1 never quite delivered anything big about their past but they had their familiarity. and i mean, they did talk to each other at least)

........on the other hand, that interaction is also fascinating because it makes code of violence even more of a bizarre tipping point. gabriel's, and not reaper's, aknowledgement of vivian's support and worry makes his choice of abandoning his friends, his family, his goddamn small child, to play a violent assassin terrorist so funny. this dialogue puts it quite plainly, it was an active choice. they keep painting him as more of a massive asshole or a complete rancorous dumbass with every new personal lore drop, the contrast to what we believed (or knew, before the change of writing direction) of noble gabriel reyes in the golden era up to retribution is almost surreal

[professionalranter31]

So the Venture comic, I love it

They are such a fucking nerd the way they just forgot about the fight with Mauga and started nerding out about the artifact was adorable

Also it was awesome to see Mauga in the comic, but I want to learn more about what artifact Doomfist has Talon hunting for. What era does it come from specifically? That could give us some answers without giving everything away

Plus it almost felt like Sombra was flirting with Venture a bit, although I don’t know if it was anything serious or what but Sombra clearly is thinking about using Venture to help her in her conspiracy hunt that involves Soldier 76

But god damn that artstyle kinda felt like what they did for the Venture short they released when they first launched, and I love it. I seriously hope they start investing in the comics more, although they better start fucking properly advertising them so that people know they exist. Dear god it makes me feel better that they haven’t given up on expanding on the lore of the Overwatch universe, now we just need either an Illari comic or animated short to give her a better feeling of connection to the Overwatch Universe because in game interactions are hard to take seriously as lore without something else to back it up.

NOTES

I wanna thank those who have requested. It has been such a pleasure to write for you!

[acelacealex]

Invasion Spoilers

I think Reinhardt's interaction with Omnics during invasion is interesting. He has like that racism that old people have when they don't realize they are racist. Examples he thinks robots and omnics are interchangeable words, we have other characters to correct these like Lucio in the Rio fight, on the ship Rein may say something referring to the robots on the ship and calls them omnics, while Lucio will correct and say "nah, they are just mindless drones" there is a difference between robots and omnics and this story is showing us that. the mission in Canada when everyone is thinking of what to do about these things on the omnic civilians heads, Reinhardt goes up to one and tries to rip it off, when he is stopped he straight up says "What? its just a robot?" Reinhardt is a product of being in a war with these people, but it's in a strange state of having been in a time before they were people, before they were awoken by the Iris. I have to wonder how the other older overwatch characters think about Omnics. We know from Invasion that Trob fully sees Omnics as people and more than just machines, we can also see this in his relationship with Bastion, We have an idea that Jack (Soldier 76) has compassion for them but nothing really solid. I had no real direction to take this just wanted to bring it up cause i thought it was interesting.

[wildwinterlunas]

New interaction between Illari and Soldier 76 dropped;

Soldier 76: I don't care what kind of baggage you got, don't bring it onto the battlefield. Illari: Your one to talk.

....Illari, hon, I know your right but god fucking damn-

[dawnthefox24]

I couldn't help myself I had to make my own fannon interaction with Lifeweaver.

Lifeweaver: Oh sorry, but I have a question for you and our vigilante here.

Lifeweaver: well...Are you two a couple? Like boyfriends?

Soldier 76 and Reaper: WE AREN'T DATING!!!!!

Lifeweaver: Alright I'm just saying, since you two sorta bicker like a marr-

Reaper and Soldier 76: WOULD YOU JUST SHUT YOUR MOUTH!!!!!

~~~~~

Lifeweaver: Ah miss Amari I have a question for you!

Ana: hmm what is it Niran?

Lifeweaver: I know it's not my business to pry but what is the relationship between 76 and Reaper?

Ana: hmm well it's complicated, I wouldn't fret to much but they were close to one another along time ago.

Lifeweaver: Ah I see well I hope they do get back together

Ana: what do you mean by that?

Lifeweaver: They used to be a couple right?

Ana:*clears her throat trying not too laugh* well...I'm not sure...

~~~~~

Lifeweaver: Are you sure you guys weren't a couple?

Reaper:...Would you just SHUT UP about it!!.

Lifeweaver: It's just a question my friend that's all I'm saying

Reaper: Be quiet or less I'll rip out you're tongue!

Lifeweaver: Jeez alright than

~~~~~~

Lifeweaver: So I heard through the grape vine's you had a boyfriend before becoming a vigilante ~

Solider 76: What the!? Who told you tha- Whatever my past is none of you concern

Lifeweaver: Well are they still apart in your life?

Solider 76:...No not anymore...

Lifeweaver: Was it a bad break up?

Solider 76: *sighs softly*.....Yeah you can say that... It was a bad break up

[tactical-mode]

After a rushed release, I took my time re-editing and reshooting and am now happy with the final product. Lesson learned. Perfectionism is the enemy of putting a product out, but I can afford to take the time to be proud of it.

Between where we left Cloud last time and where we find him in this opening shot, I actually filmed multiple scenes using Remake that took us into the station house, through a combat, up the stairs, and back out onto the street. These scenes were cut because they weren’t in the OG, it’s as simple as that. The 76 shots and ~15 minutes of good footage are waiting on the ancillary hard drive to be used in a music video or something.

[Chapter 01] Scene 10:  Meeting AVALANCHE

(see my post from Episode 1 to read about why I enumerate scenes this way)

This is the first major overhaul to a scene from 7R, and I cut a lot, refilmed, and moved shots around much more than folks might notice, and I had to manipulate a lot to make it seem like Biggs is interacting with Cloud, which he doesn’t actually do in the Remake scene.

The character’s mouth animations surprised me by how well they could be interpreted to be saying the PS1 lines, especially:

Jessie: “--s, this, uh, what was his name again?”

Jessie: “SOLDIER? Aren’t they the enemy?”

Biggs: “He’s a professional, unlike the rest of us.”

Biggs: “He quit them, and now he’s one of us.”

For the dialogue in this scene I blended PS1 and EC. Forever shout out to Yinza for preserving the PS1 script.

(remember to turn on closed-captioning for the dialogue!)

Scene 11:  Opening the Gate

There’s some stage blocking here and another instance where I decide to go with Remake and/or EC’s dialogue over OG. In OG, Barret tells them to split up (they don’t), the player is given the option to rename him, he tells Cloud that he doesn’t trust him, and then he tells the player how to use the controller buttons to run. Yeah, that won’t work. We’re going to keep his one line about trust:

“Ex-SOLDIER, huh? Don't trust ya!” (PS1/Beacause)

“You’d better be worth the money, merc. Every last gil.” (7R)

For this, 7R’s line is the most evocative and gives us just a bit more context for the situation at hand. I’m not super thrilled that it extraneously introduces us to the concept of ‘gil’, the fictional currency of FF7’s world, which isn’t relevant to the story right now (in the OG, Aerith introduces it when selling the player a flower). But the line is just so damn cool. Barret is so damn cool.

I cut the extraneous chatter between Cloud and Wedge here. I added a couple of shots around the door opening, such as moving one of Wedge’s face-muggings and a wide shot of Jessie and Biggs being sneaky.

I blended the different movements of the soundtrack here to match the iconic tilt of the camera up at the reactor. I also made sure to keep the entire sequence timed in such a way that Barret’s cold turn back is accented by the tense cellos. They haven’t said which one of Remake’s many composers is responsible for each individual diversion from Uematsu’s original score, but I would put good money on Shotaro Shima for the cinematic variation that plays during this scene. The forevariance of the Main Theme here is a particularly nice touch.

Scene 12: Combat: Cloud vs. 1 MP and 1 Guard Hound

A combat has begun, which means that our major story moments for the episode are behind us. That’s not to say that there won’t be plot in the following few minutes, but there won’t be dialogue. Enjoy the slow-motion feast for the eyes and ears, I really enjoyed making it.

Because Cloud is the only combatant in these, it’s easy to actually choreograph and re-shoot the fights, finaggling the enemies into the same locations as I use the same moves on them. This fight can be repeated after opening a nearby chest, allowing me to quickly restart it without having to reload, with only minor changes to the starting positions. For instance, in the first scenario, the members of AVALANCHE start on the battlefield and spend the first few rounds taking the lift, whereas they’re already at the top at the start of the second fight.

I really loved the naturally moody lighting on the crew in the warehouse, and cutting back and forth allowed me to mask some of the “jumping around” that the enemies and Cloud do – although not all, as eagle-eyed viewers will see. This will become less possible when more characters become involved in fights, but for the opening encounters I thought it would be important to show how this slow-mo thing could give the impression of fights progressing. Here's my favorite from the cutting room floor:

Scenes 13-14: Through the Warehouse

At three separate times, I mask edits to the score. At the end of the combat, Cloud sheathes his sword, allowing me to cut out 14 bars and restore Uematsu’s original score structure. I then put this opening piano on loop, extending it until enemies are on the screen (it’s masked again by the sound of the lift and by Jessie cutting the wires. In Uematsu’s structure, loops of the song don’t include the timpanis and orchestra hits from the beginning, but 7R’s version does include them, which I think is an oversight. However, it had the unintended upside of scoring the arrival of enemies from behind Cloud really well! Also, we can associate the orchestra hits with Cloud once more as they punctuate him whirling around and preparing to fight!

Fun fact: Bombing Mission has a bpm of 136, so when I found editing the music too repetitive I would use placeholders with the same bpm and then fine-tune it later. Highlights from the playlist I made were Rocket Man, Thunderstruck, Go Your Own Way, Jump (For My Love), and, heh, Sandstorm. 

Scene 15: Combat: Cloud vs. 2 MPs, 1 Guard Hound

With this combat, I chose to introduce the viewer to magic - specifically, Cloud’s ability to cast lightning and ice. In OG, the player learns this by taking control of Cloud down on the train platform, but its quite possible in a playthrough for Cloud to never use magic – and indeed, in 7R he begins with different spell abilities altogether!

However, I feel like this short encounter was the way to introduce magic with the maximum hype possible, and I’m proud of the result. Cloud zaps one MP, dispatches the other with a quick sword slice, then fires off an ice spell to nab the pup.

I tried to have the materia in focus while Cloud was casting in order to provide a visual clue as to where this magic comes from, because it won’t be exposited with dialogue for some time yet.

Scene 16: Combat: Cloud vs. 2 MPs

Around 1 minute of combat footage represents about 2-3 hours of shooting, and about 5 hours of editing. This one took a bit longer because I remained in bullet time so that I could get coverage of the crew running out onto the bridge.

For this combat, I cut out a chunk of the score to make room for the section that uses a variation on the Main Theme, accenting a Cloud hero shot.

Scene 17: The Bridge

This was pretty straightforward to shoot except for cutting out a door puzzle that triggers AVALANCHE running into the reactor. Filming around that was a bit tricky. I also dabbled in my first bit of colour-correction here, as jumping from the gap between sectors back into that metal tunnel was hard on the eyes.

A quick clip of the music to ramp up towards the credits, and about a hundred reshoots of that camera so that it passes between the pipes and not through them. And we're done.

Final Thoughts

I can’t believe anyone reads these things, but if you did, hey thanks. Let me know what you think of the series! And dOn’T fOrGeT tO LiKe aNd sUbScRiBe!

[pixie-mask]

I'm crying at this interaction:

Junkrat: You look like a gentleman who eats his own toenails

Soldier 76: ...Why the hell would you say that to someone

Junkrat: Just lookin' for something we might have in common...

🤣

[nitewrighter]

I don't know if you take repeat users (as in if the same user is allowed to submit more than on interaction) but I would love to see more fanteractions like Kiriko and Diva where they're little gremlins, past/present characters interaction (exampe: Jack meeting soldier 76) or even more skin Specific interaction like Cyberpunk Genji, Zeus Queen and adventurer Tracer.

Zeus Junker Queen: Ho, Hermes. What news from my dominion?

Hermes Lúcio: There have been repeated complaints of you taking the form of a goose, Cloud-Gatherer.

Zeus Junker Queen: Well that's not stopping so they're just going t' have to deal with that.

----

Zeus Junker Queen: I see that Victory shall be at my side in white and gold.

Winged Victory Mercy: Victory shall be at the side of all the pantheon.

Zeus Junker Queen: Yeah, but... *tongue click* mostly me.

Winged Victory Mercy: *exhausted sigh*

---

Bard Lúcio: Glad to have a cleric on the team. "Banish Undead" is going to keep a lot of nastiness at bay.

Cleric LifeWeaver: Oh I don't know 'Banish Undead.' I put most of my stats into charisma.

Bard Lúcio: But that's my stat!

----

Hinotori Kiriko: You want to crack open a cybercroissant this nasty, you're going to need a real top-notch e-driller. I know a guy: Toledo Killswitch. He's got the frag ordinance you need to grizzle this bocce ball.

Cyberpunk Genji: *on the verge of tears* I have no idea what you're saying.

Soldier 76

Soldier 76 respects your determination for the part of being a Drag Queen. I mean, you have to buy so much makeup, clothes, wigs if you want, and glitter.

He can't even figure out how to do makeup, even though you have tried to teach him before. He has figured out how to walk in your small heels, which he joked, "This is a step up to becoming a drag queen, huh?"

He never really sees you in drag, his first time after you two started dating was crazy. You packed your bags since you and some of your Drag Queens were going to go to the mall and he came out of the room groggily in surprise.

He knew you did drag, that was one of your first conversations you two had before dating, but he never expected to see you in your outfits this early on!

"Oh, Good Morning Jack!" you said in a cheery tone, turning around to see him furrowed eyebrows. "Your so.. shiny." he said, clearing his throat. "Yeah, it comes with the part dear" you replied, walking over to kiss him on his forehead. "How the hell did you get all of that on you.. how can you even breathe or walk?" he kept questioning on. "You look like a totally different fucking person!"

You laughed, telling him you made him coffee already and that you'll be home soon. You hugged him as he fell into your hug slightly, getting a face full of clothes. "I have so many damn questions when you get back

Lúcio

Lúcio is such a fan of you doing drag and he loves the fact you use his music for your shows. He loves doing makeup with you since before he does to a music concert, he puts on concealer, green eye makeup, and even fake freckles on some parts of his face. He even puts glitter on his facial hair sometimes which you help him with.

He has even been to one of your shows and has been the biggest support/cheerleader since you two started to be friends all through your relationship.

The first time he saw you in drag was during one of the music concerts, you dressed in all green and glow sticks and gave out frog lollipops to people who passed. This was before you two started dating, your first interaction.

You were a huge fan of his music so obviously, you would come! You even bought a backstage pass to actually meet him! After his main opening and playing DJ, he decided to let the music play with one of his helpers to do a backstage meet-and-greet.

You walked up in line, being the first one. When he was walking to the area and saw you, he blushed slightly.

"Hey Hey!" He said while sliding up to look at you and your outfit. "Whoa... You look fantastic!" he laughed excitedly. You smiled even more. "I love your music!! I am so glad you like my outfit- I tried my best to make it look like- you!" you replied, placing the CD down. "Maybe you should be my outfit manager...see you around tho, Drag Lúcio!" he offered, signing your CD with his signature... and his number.

Cassidy

Cole Cassidy has never really understood why people drag, but he is amazed at how people put on a persona and wear all those heels and clothes. Like seriously, he could never wrap his head around how people in drag put on such a daring personality and a bold look for hours on end!

Although he doesn't fully understand why you do drag, he is supportive nonetheless. He even lets you do his makeup on rare occasions, mainly when he is drunk. One time he woke up with a face of makeup and his nails done (LMAO).

He does sometimes try to wear your heels. "It can't be that hard, I mean, I wear these boots all day and they got heels to em'!" Once he got up and tried to walk he instantly fell, and oh, you laughed your butt off while helping him up.

The first time he saw you in drag was when he came home from a bar. He had gotten drunk and you had just finished testing a drag outfit you were going to wear later in the week; you never expected him to get home this early. You were walking around the house when he saw you, and god was he stuck standing there like an idiot.

"You are home so early, what happened?" you asked concerningly, normally he would be out all night till early in the morning. "Why did ya' get all dolled up for me?" he drunkenly asked with a deep laugh, smiling oh so happily. "You look fab-u-lous babe!" he added, opening his arms up for a hug.

You were flattered by his drunken compliment. You asked if he was drunk, and he replied yes with a groan. "But just because I'm dr-runk means nothin' darlin'! I can stay up all night while you get all dolled up" he replied, with a huge grin. You laid him down on the couch, telling him you would be back without the outfit on; when you got back in more suitable clothes he was passed out. I mean hey, at least you know he doesn't mind you doing drag!

Baptiste

Baptiste has always been the kind of man to love and appreciate everything in life. When he found out you did drag he was so happy to know one of your lifestyles. He loves hearing you talk about what kind things you do when in drag, the persona you put on, the stories you have to tell.

He is just really happy about your hobbies, and this one he has asked to join in. He happily did a mini-fashion show with the two of you and your drag costumes you had. Obviously he was just playing and enjoying the moment with you. During the start of the fashion show he finally saw you in drag, after days of asking to see photos of you.

The two of you had set up a fake run way going from the dining room into the living room, a red cloth being the run way set. "I am so excited! Go first!!" he rushed you into the bedroom to change.

You laughed, excited to see his reaction to you in a quick drag outfit. Baptiste, on the other hand, had set up a camera to record you so he could watch the moment whenever he wanted to.

After many minuets, you gave him a warning with a "Coming down the runway, your favorite partner of all time..", finishing it right as you got in line of sight as Baptiste. He stood up, overreaction with gasps and laughs and moving his arms around you in shock.

"That looks fantastic! How did you do this in such little time?" he asked quickly, a jump in his step as you explained how this is just something you did quickly, and how you could do better with more amount of time. After millions of questions from him, he begged you to do his makeup like a drag queen and you two could do a mini photo shop.

Junkrat

Junkrat wasn't really educated with many kinds of hobbies, drag included. Honestly, he had seen you in drag millions of times and wasn't really phased by it, but he loved seeing the sparkles and colors on your already handsome face. He asked you questions like "Are ya sureee that's comfortable? In this weather? Is it bomb proof? Why do you always go out in that dress?" You find the questions cute, and glad he seemed quite interested in it.

He had once been to one of your drag events, a kids reading event. He sat right near the front, watching you read with a huge smile on his face. Even in drag or not, you were so handsome and he loved that.

The first time he saw you in drag was a week after you two started dating. He had just got out of the shower (crazy i know) and you were seeing what outfit matched best with the makeup you were wearing in the living room. When he came out into the living room you were going to ask him what worked best, but then...

"Hey dearie, you ran out of soa- OH MY GOSH!" his eyes lit up at the outfits you had laid out. "ARE THESE YOURS? ARE YOU GOING TO WEAR THEM??" he asked excitedly while you explained what you were doing.

"I'm assuming you don't know but- I am a Drag queen and we wear all these clothes and makeup and stuff and just have fun! we sing-" he cut you off, saying he should also be a drag queen since he is an 'amazing' singer/song writer/musician/ actor/fashionista. He was over-exaggerating, but it made you start to cackle.

You promised Junkrat that when you got back that you would help him do drag. He laughed, jumping around. "Caannn my drag queen person have bombs on them? and gold? and fire?" he asked while you sighed with a smile on your face. What have you created?
