Hey look Mage remembered to actually do the thing, this time around. Anyway, here’s the full updated masterpost of fanfic recommendations under the read more. Sorry it’s a week later than intended. The separate postings will go up tomorrow, interspersed as last time.

Incomplete Fics (as of compilation):

I’m Such a Fan by Blacklacelilacs (Rated T; Graphic Depictions of Violence and Major Character Death)

(https://archiveofourown.org/works/13663815/chapters/31385157)

The Sentai and the Cultist by Lacertae (Rated M; No Warnings Apply)

Sentai AU where Zenyatta is an unwilling antagonist and it seems like the Green Sentai the only person who’s going to actually listen to him. There is something darker afoot than the Cultist. Updates on Mondays, currently.

Saturday Morning Sentai by Phylix (Rated E; Graphic Depictions of Violence)

Sentai AU that’s a little bit more like modern superheroes; not necessarily gritty but a little more realism is tied to it.

Personal warning for usage of drugs, though it’s not explicitly described. Also McHanzo dick pics, because that’s a thing.

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/11536227/chapters/25900470)

Ryujin Sentai Goranger – Season 3; Episodes 1-11 by choriarty (Rated T; No Warnings Apply)

Brought to you by the same author of “Oni and Okashi”, it’s the third season of the show Ryujin Sentai Gorangers! (In choriarty’s words, “don’t worry about seasons 1 and 2 the 3rd one is best”.) It’s a combination of Sentai, Power Rangers, and Sailor Moon and is the fic to read for all your cheesy, glorious Sentai needs. One of my personal favorites.

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/11341377/chapters/25381869)

Judgement by vibidi (Rated T; No Warnings Apply)

I can see why I don’t see a lot of talk about this one, but I promise it’s worth the time! Genyatta is a little bit of a side note in this one. It follows Zenyatta through the Recall and trying to deal with his own issues as well as coming into a team where not everyone likes the fact that he’s there. Also, honorable mention of the alternate title: Maybe the Iris Was the Friends We Made Along the Way.

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/7511021/chapters/17074232)

Moments of Hana by ObsidianCoffe (Rated T; Chose Not to Use Warnings)

Focusing on Hana “D.Va” Song, Genyatta is definitely in the foreground and features in at least two of the (currently) five chapters. It’s adorable and also great in terms of team relations.

Those Who Need It by tea_and_outer_space (Rated T; No Warnings Apply)

Modern, human AU where everyone has some form of chronic illness, pain, or mental condition, but they all find friends in a free group therapy. Genyatta’s not really a focus of the fic, more so the parts about Genji.

The Tale of the Lost Dragon by the artisticfox (Rated T; No Archive Warnings Apply)

Directly related to another AU I haven’t read (yet), it can serve as a stand-alone. Mythical AU.

I Would Move Mountains by twitchtipthegnawer (Rated M; Chose Not to Use Warnings)

Hybrid AU where Zenyatta is human and Genji is a hybrid. They set off from Amsterdam to Nepal, but the peaceful journey isn’t always so peaceful.

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/9894521/chapters/22180067)

Dragon’s Guide by Ayleid (Rated M; No Warnings Apply)

You’ve heard a lot about this one already! Slow burn, modern day, college professor AU. Definitely a good read but super lengthy – don’t start this one at 2 am. Or 11 pm. (Trust me.) There’s actually a side fic where Genji, Hana, and Lucio all make academic vines which I recommend as well, though Genyatta isn’t even really mentioned in that one. It’s the second link.

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/8155211/chapters/18689135)

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/10324025)

Mountain Air by calaverita (Rated M; Graphic Depictions of Violence)

Gravity Pulls Inwards by headraline (Rated M; No Warnings Apply)

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/7971889/chapters/18234664)

Ode to the Lettuce Leaf by Byacolate (Rated M; No Warnings Apply)

Rapunzel/Witchcraft AU where Zenyatta is in a tower and Genji finds said tower. Implied NSFW, but nothing is mentioned.

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/9612344)

You Must Forgive Yourself by megsblackfire (Rated M; Major Character Death)

This is part two of a series but it’s not necessary to read the first one. Hanzo drowns and Genji blames himself. Hanzo doesn’t blame Genji, but how’s he supposed to tell him that when he’s a bearded dragon? Pre-ship Genyatta.

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/8460973)

Oni and Okashi by choriarty

(Rated T before being rated E for Chapter 13; the chapter’s skippable. No Warnings Apply.)

Oni Genji meets Witch Zenyatta when the latter summons him completely by accident. You’ve actually probably heard a lot about this one as well; there’s a lot of brilliant fanart for it!

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/9506510/chapters/21505331)

Series:

i made poor life choices and now i have to write genyatta everyday by antikytheras

I feel though. Anyway, a series of various scenes and events with our favorite robos. Includes: serious, silly, alternate universes, Oni/Sanzang, and human AUs.

The Shimada Brothers Need Healing by nerdy-flower (baconnegg)

Modern, Human AU where Genji and Hanzo escape the Shimada clan at different times in different ways, but end up finding each other again. Including: mental healing, physical disabilities and trying to live with them, Shambali shenanigans, brotherly love, Genyatta pre-ship, ship, engagement, and marriage, McHanzo pre-ship and established relationship, and mentions/ an occasional showing of Rein/Modatta.

(https://archiveofourown.org/series/936354)

Something About Us by KNACC

Delves into the relationship of Genji and Zenyatta �� sort of slice of life, in-between moments. Follows Genji. Main fic is incomplete and rated “E” for Chapter 10, the other two are complete and are rated “T”.

(http://archiveofourown.org/series/603112)

Kamen Hero Dragon by KNACC

Slow to update but oh, so worth it. Sentai AU; second installment is Genyatta Week 2017.

(http://archiveofourown.org/series/757815)

Pit Viper by Byacolate

Sanzang Zenyatta/Oni Genji; the best way I can describe this is “whimsical”. All the same, they’re both fairly short but sweet. There’s even a podfic of them both by Arioch (second link).

(http://archiveofourown.org/series/750234)

(https://archiveofourown.org/works/11299500)

the curving path by chuchisushi

Described as a “five plus one that got a little out of hand”, the main story is a super long read but holy mother of things great and small, it’s one of my personal favorites. Also has a podfic by Arioch (I have it downloaded; it’s about 1 hour and 45 minutes long). Again, podfic is the second link. The second installment is just smut, while the third focuses mainly on Tracer interacting with Genji and talking about him.

(http://archiveofourown.org/series/592528)

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/11047359)

Equilibrium by NeverwinterThistle

Hurt/comfort series with more comfort than hurt. Both pieces are on the longer side and slightly introspective.

(http://archiveofourown.org/series/600055)

Color Palette by Balenae

The first piece is rated E but has more than just smut (even if it is present in almost every chapter). It’s not completely necessary to read to understand the series: it’s an AU where Genji is still human and meets the Shambali when they come to Hanamura. Second installment has “a glimpse of canon” and the third one is pure smut. Still, a good read.

(http://archiveofourown.org/series/560945)

Collection of small Genyatta drabbles by bluegemini

Exactly what it says on the tin, neither piece is over 500 words. Super cute and super fluffy.

(http://archiveofourown.org/series/589489)

Moments by Balenae

The first installment is rated E for chapters 9 and 10, both of which are pure smut. Warning for major character injury and non-graphic descriptions of violence and pain. Second installment is a prequel about Genji and Zenyatta’s first meeting.

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/10867548)

The Man-Machine Dichotomy by Balenae (Rated T; Chose Not to Use Warnings)

Genji goes to the Shambali Monks in order to heal, but it’s not what you think. Balenae’s piece for the Genyatta Zine “We Walk In Harmony”.

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/11624649)

Fics where Genyatta is a side ship:

modern romance by gleed (Rated T; Chose Not to Use Warnings)

Modern, Human AU where the Overwatch team lives in an apartment complex. Honestly gleed puts it best:

“Hana has no idea that the Karaoke Night she organizes will lead to this much gay nonsense.”

Gravity Plays Favorites by headraline (Rated T; No Archive Warnings)

Modern day aerialist AU; McHanzo is the main ship but Genji and Zenyatta are together and are part of the main cast. Their relationship is definitely in the foreground, though as mentioned it’s not the focus.

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/11314008/chapters/25321230)

Oil and Ink (Series) by Demon_Apostle

McHanzo is, once again, the main ship, but Genyatta is mentioned in quite a few of them and the 12th installment has them as the main characters.

(http://archiveofourown.org/series/637514)

Worth the Trouble (Series) by headraline

Following the trend of McHanzo being the primary ship, but Genji is one of the main characters and is in a relationship with Zenyatta. Also a good read for brotherly relations between Hanzo and Genji. They rescue a kid and end up having to care for her as shit goes sideways.

As a heads up: Genji does make a joke about incest but it’s only a joke. I don’t really think it’s that big a deal but better to be safe.

(http://archiveofourown.org/series/754671)

The New Tattoo by Unholy_Author (Rated M; Graphic Depictions of Violence)

Another McHanzo as the main focus. It’s an AU where a tattoo appears for whoever you love. It goes beyond romantic love, too, which is my favorite part. Genyatta is in the foreground of this fic even though it’s not the main focus. All done now!

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/7958251/chapters/18200611)

Reconstruction by Balenae (Rated M; Chose Not to Use Warnings)

Following Hanzo, the Genyatta is mentioned but so far unfulfilled. Still a good read!

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/7169135/chapters/16274675)

Non-Lethal Solace by casusalhomesatanism (Rated T; No Warnings Apply)

It can comes across as McGenji at first and then switches to McHanzo. The Genyatta is more implied than anything, but it’s still a good read. Resident Shimada whisperer Jesse McCree.

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/10746882/chapters/23825448)

A Force For Galactic Good (Series) by LiterallythePresident

Mass Effect AU. Genyatta is heavily implied in the fourth installment and can be read as a standalone. All of them are short and sweet and despite having never played Mass Effect, I enjoyed reading them.

(http://archiveofourown.org/series/713022)

Death’s Best Man (Series) by deliciously_devient

Focuses on McCree and has past McGenji in it, though it shifts to Genyatta after the Recall (though the latter is only implied). A supernatural AU, and no, not the TV show. Since it focuses on McCree, the main ship is McHanzo and the most recent installment does have smut in it.

(http://archiveofourown.org/series/684819)

not your fault by Anna_Blossom (Not Rated; No Warnings Apply)

Personal warning of mentions of suicidal tendencies and injury, as well as a scene where someone is killed in self-defense (none of these are graphically depicted). More about Mercy and Hanzo coming to terms with one another, but Genyatta is present. Genji and Mercy are good friends. Also there’s a puppy.

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/10626900)

The Mariachi AU No One Asked For (Series) by arcxphxbia

McHanzo is the main ship of the series but Genyatta is mentioned in almost all of the installments and is in the foreground in the third one. College Mariachi AU (where McCree is the only one in the Mariarchi.)

(http://archiveofourown.org/series/656633)

First Time by kdwalbring (Rated G; No Warnings Apply)

I never realized how much McHanzo overlaps in the Genyatta tag, but here we are. Anyway, main focus is McHanzo with Genyatta in the foreground. Also adopting children. And trans Hanzo.

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/8910469/chapters/20412811)

Lost in Translation by BenevolentErrancy (Rated T; No Warnings Apply)

Again, McHanzo is main ship. Mostly follows Genji as Hanzo is insufferable and only flirts with McCree in Japanese. Problem: McCree doesn’t understand Japanese. Zenyatta is a gift. Genyatta is present but again, not the focus.

(http://archiveofourown.org/works/8108695/chapters/18583825)

Claws and Crumbs and Red Bean Buns (Series) by Byacolate and mywordsflyup (Rated E; No Warnings Apply)

Both pieces are rated E, though the Genyatta one only has smut in the last part of the second chapter. It’s not strictly necessary to read them in order, but the reason this is here is because the first (and main installment) is McHanzo focused, though Genyatta is in the foreground.

(https://archiveofourown.org/series/596080)

Don’t Take My Sunshine Away (Series) by Krasimer

Jumps between various members of Overwatch; it’s technically an AU since a lot of this was written before the canon came out. Mainly focusing on Reaper76, but other relationships include WidowTracer, McHanzo, Rein/Ana, PharMercy, RoadRat, and Genyatta. Also implied Sombra/Symmetra (sort of).

(http://archiveofourown.org/series/509745)

this grave ain’t big enough for the two of us by sajere1 (Rated G; No Warnings Apply)

AU where every Overwatch member that was presumed dead goes “Surprise! Not dead!” during McCree and Hanzo’s wedding. Genyatta is background. A nice, humorous piece.
