#Overwatch hanzo imagines

[kortsitron]

You're such a tease

✮ PARING Genji Shimada × Reader, Hanzo Shimada × Reader, Cole Cassidy × Reader, Niran Pruksamanee × Reader, Ramattra × Reader, Mauga Malosi × Reader

✮ WARNINGS/TAGS cockwarming (as teasing), 18+, gender neutral reader (no genitalia mentioned), mdni, nsfw

✮ SUMMARY They react to your teasing/punishment

✮ A/N Hey, apologies for not being active, I won't lie this year and the last few months have been terrible and my mental was (and perhaps still is) in shreds. I will try my best to take care of the requests I got, because I don't want any of you to wait any longer. Either way, I hope you enjoy!

Genji Shimada 

⟡ Genji is collected until instead of just cockwarming him, start moving your hips. The subtle movement cause his cock to twitch, but he still does his best to act like nothing is happening

⟡ Soon enough his hands find their on hips, gently squeezing them, as if asking for something more. Genji won't speak up unless he really has to, but once he does it's just quiet pleads, asking if you can finally move, because he needs you

Hanzo Shimada

⟡ Hanzo like Genji acts like he's collected, but you can see clearly that he's turning into a mess. The light blush, his breath becoming heavier. No matter how much he tries to hide it under his grumpy expression, you can see right through him

⟡ When you decide to tease him a bit more, moving slightly, you hear a soft gasp from him. He does his best to keep a frown on his face, but you moving more makes him moan. On the inside he gets for you to stop playing him

Cole Cassidy

⟡ Cole is unphased, the same smug smile face as he feels the familiar tightness around him. But soon enough, just a little movement has him shivering. Already using nicknames on you and trying to gently move

⟡ He can't help, but bite his lip, looking into your eyes as he tries to convince you to do what he wants

Niran Pruksamanee 

⟡ Niran is flirty from the start, giving you little touched here and there to convince you to give into his wants. His touches as always are subtle and delicate. His plan is to seduce you

⟡ When he feels you move, he can't help, but whimper quietly, quietly begging for you to keep moving your hips like that

Ramattra 

⟡ He doesn't understand the meaning of this, until you move slightly and all of his sensors are on fire. He almost jumped, already starting to feel overwhelmed. You swear you can see steam coming off him

⟡ Ramattra is not the one to beg, he himself shifts ever so slightly to get that tiny amount of friction. Hearing you complain about him moving, he will come up with so excuse that his cables are getting tangled up and he's just trying to prevent that from happening

Mauga Malosi

⟡ Will act unfazed, but soon is frustrated by the lack of friction. But soon enough he groans and growls your name, holding you in place as adjusts

⟡ He usually doesn't beg, he never gets, but if it’s the way for him to get what he wants - he will beg. He bites his lip and looks right into your eyes as he does so, hoping it would be enough. Obviously it's not, so he buries his face in your neck and whispers pleads into it, sending shivers down your spine

Overwatch Handholding Headcanons Part 1

I just wanted to do something simple and cute to fuel my soul.

Part one of four

Ramattra He isn’t used to showing affection let alone PDA. The way he would hold your hand is simple. He would gently nudge your hand with his, brushing his pinky against yours, hoping you get the message and that he doesn’t need to ask for it. His grip can be a little harsh so he favors you wrapping your hand around one or two of his larger digits. You enjoy the cool smooth feel of his hands. You know this is a big step for him and you don’t outwardly make a fuss. Simply take his silent plea for the contact.

Hanzo Hand-holding is something he thought was silly, childish. Something lovestruck teenagers did. But after you took his hand a few times, he decided it was far from silly and he found that he enjoyed how your hand felt against his. You would hold his, waiting for Hanzo to take your hand fully in his, a mumble of half-hearted complaint under his breath. He might pretend to protest but you made him feel worthy and he adored it.

Roadhog You didn’t think he would be the type to want to hold hands, he was rough and fearsome. A reputation as a fighter, a criminal. But holding your hand reminds him of better times, of the man he used to be, the good man he was before the world changed and he was forced to change with it. His touch is surprisingly gentle, his hand feels warm, rough skin. He likes to place his over yours when you are sat together.

Junker Queen She pulls your arm damn well near off as she grabs your wrist and yanks you towards her. She smirked down at you, wondering how small your hand looked in hers. Rough skin and even rougher grip as she holds tight. Your hand will ache for a while after but you decide it's worth it. Everything about her is rough around the edges and how she lovingly crushes your hand is no different.

Venture They love to hold hands, soon as they see you, their face lights up and their smile streches into a big toothy grin as they make grabby hand gestures before taking both your hands in theirs, spinning you slightly as they laugh, content to be in your company. When walking hand in hand they can’t help but happily sway your arms back and forth as they chat excitedly at you.

Headcanons: Overwatch Men Saying I Love You for the First Time (Pt 1.)

A/N: splitting these headcanons into 2 parts so that i can get the creative juices flowing for when i write the others. (hcs under the cut!)

(part 2 here! :])

Warnings: none that i can think of Word Count: 952

Baptiste:

Baptiste, being ever the spontaneous one, first tells you he loves you during the movie night you have about every two weeks.

The two of you were huddled underneath a large, fluffy blanket, the film you chose somewhat forgotten as you idly chat about whatever comes to mind.

As you go to lean against his shoulder, you can hear a small breath hitch in his throat as his sentence fades off.

With a concerned look on your face, you pause the movie before lifting your head to look at him.

"Hey, are you okay?"

Baptiste nods his head in reply as he places a comforting hand on your arm.

"Yeah, I'm alright, it's just...You know I love you, right?"

Your eyes widen in surprise for a moment before softening again as you sweetly smile at him.

"I love you too, 'Tiste..."

Cassidy:

Cole is almost always on charmer mode with everyone he knows and comes across. It's part of how he got this far in life and how he prefers to be seen.

But when it comes to his first time telling you how he feels after you've just started dating? Completely different story. He's an absolute mess.

Here he is, pacing back and forth in front of your door with a gift in hand as he debates on how to admit his affections for you.

As he hypes himself up to finally knock and just tell you, the door creaks open with you peeking out from behind it.

"Oh, hi Cole! What can I do for you?" You say, fully pulling the door open as you greet him with a grin.

"H-hey, darlin'... I- I, uh, made somthin' for you. Here." An unprepared Cassidy stutters as he hands you his present.

As you look down at where your hand meet, Cole pulls his away to reveal a braided leather bracelet with round wooden beads interlaced.

Letting out an excited gasp, you place it upon your wrist before throwing your arms around the cowboy.

"This is amazing, Cass, thank you! I love you!"

Cassidy then chuckles deeply, wrapping himself around you as he leans into your touch.

"Love you too, sweetheart."

Doomfist:

Akande is very in tune with what he wants for himself, so when he realizes how he feels, he won't hesitate to tell you.

He'd call you to meet him somewhere private in Talon's headquarters, where once you arrive, he'd instantly start flirting.

"Ah, hello my dear. Looking as wonderful as always."

"Oh, thank you, Akande! Is there something you wanted from me?"

He would shake his head in confirmation before tenderly grabbing your hand and placing a kiss atop it.

"Nothing too serious, I assure you. I simply wanted to tell you that I love you. I hope you feel the same."

With a flustered expression, you'd whisper a small yes before he places his arms around around your waist in an unusually soft embrace.

Genji:

Genji says it during a rare quiet moment at Gibraltar.

After preventing a Null Sector attack on a town not far from base, you were helping him repair some of his cybernetic parts that got damaged in the fight.

In the middle of adding a few adjustments to one of the mobility mechanisms, he heaves out a deep sigh which causes you to glance up at him.

"I can tell you wanna say something, 'Ji. You can tell me if you want."

With a shake of his head, he lets out another sigh as he places a gentle hand on your face.

"Just... thank you for everything you do for me, my beloved. I love you."

"Love you too, Genji."

Hanzo:

If anyone would be the one to plan something to tell you his feelings, it would absolutely be Hanzo Shimada himself.

Even if he isn't normally one for romance, your presence in his life would have changed that

Hanzo would make preparations to meet you somewhere special so he could not so subtly show you off in public.

After eating a fancy dinner at an expensive restaurant and going on a walk through a park, he'd turn to look at you with admiration swimming in his eyes.

"I just want you to know that I love you very much. Even if I don't say it often, I really do care about you."

"I love you too, Han." You'd grin before kissing him softly on the cheek.

Junkrat:

Let's be honest with ourselves, Jamison would have blurted it out within the first few days of being with you.

He'd probably be so focused on building a new explosive contraption that he wouldn't have even noticed he said it.

"Oi, could you hand me the thing? It's in the toolbox over there!"

You'd walk over, grab the thing he needs and go to give it to him with a few pats to his shoulder.

"Thank youuu, I love ya!"

You'd chuckle quietly in response and give his head a smooch before walking off to do your own thing.

"I love you too, Fawkes!"

Lifeweaver:

Niran will tell you he loves you when he hides out at your place after a group of hunters sent by Vishkar find him and try to chase him down.

After a relentless pursuit, he manages to escape and find his way to your house, needing a place to recollect his thoughts.

When you respond to the banging on your door, you look out to see an exhausted Lifeweaver on your doorstep.

"Could I bother you for a place to stay for the night?"

"Always. The guest room is already ready for you."

With a relieved sigh, Niran would hug you before pulling you back into the house.

"Thank you, I love you so much, darling!"

ow guys and girls (not all) getting jealous seeing you with a new recruit

TW: Cassidy's headcanon is a little mature... (eyes emoji)

Hanzo He'll have to remind himself that you can be friends and hangout with anyone you want. Being jealous is selfish and childish... right? So why does he feel so sad seeing you happy with someone else? He understands that you love him more than anything. But sometimes this man just wants you to himself. When you finally get back to Hanzo, he'll make sure to hold you close in the privacy of his room and tell you that he just wants to be enough for you. Please tell him he is enough and that there is no one else that will come in between you both. It will make him feel more confident in himself. :(

Genji The ultimate playboy when he was his younger self...oh how the tables have turned. He used to make all the girls jealous of each other if they got to talked to him. He's used to people being jealous of him if anything. So when this weird feeling started when he say you with a random new recruit in the lounge talking and laughing, what got into him? Genji couldn't help himself. He quickly walked up and excused you both as he took your hand and led you out of the Gibraltar lounge. Was it rude? He simply was not thinking nor did he care. He did apologize for the sudden intrusion while walking you to his room. In there all alone with you, he confessed how he felt. It seemed like the most mature thing.

"Sorry, (Name)... I wasn't thinking...Is it okay if we just lay together for a little?" Genji will lay you down onto his bed that he bought for you. He'll lay on his side propped up by an elbow and watch you closely. Feel free to fall asleep, he just wants to feel like he can protect you for a little bit.

Cassidy He'll walk up to that son of a gun and tell them how it is. "Howdy. Looks like you've gotten to meet my partner, (Name). Ain't they a sight for sore eyes?" He'll sling an arm around you and give a look at the new recruit that just radiates 'Get away or I'll kick your ass' energy. After the recruit scurries off to who knows where, Cassidy will give you a big o'l smile. He kind acts like he was never jealous in the first place and just tells you, "I'm just lettin' others know what is mine." No matter what, the day will end with the two of you in bed. Expect him to to be a bit more aggressive and possessive than usual. Think of him being more forceful in the way he'll grab at you and force himself into you. Cassidy will lean down and whisper in your ear, "I'm your huckleberry" "Only I can make you feel like this, pumpkin."

Brigitte "Hey, (Name)...Can we talk?" You looked over to see your adorable lover at the door waiting for a response. You told the newbie that you'll see them around or maybe in a future mission. After walking into the hallway with Brig, she asks if you could follow her to somewhere private. You guys end up in a hidden park outside of Gibraltar. You asked if there was anything wrong. Brig can't help but shift back and forth while trying to form a coherent sentence. "I...Sorry I just felt like I wanted to be alone with you. Honestly, I think I got a little jealous watching you talk to someone." You couldn't help but sadly smile and give her a kiss on the cheek. It took her by surprise. "You're not mad at me? Isn't it selfish of me to whisk you away when you're making friends...?" You tell her that it's something you can both work on; to be able to feel confident in each other and so jealousy doesn't have to be a thing. "You're right. I need to work on it. But, I'm feeling better already!"

Kiriko "Huh...So do you like hanging around them more than me?" Kiriko will playfully ask. Of course, she was only half joking...other half seriously asking. You would reassure her that you like spending time with her but you just wanted to say hi to the new person! "Alright, but can they do this?!" She'll bust out her kunai and start juggling them. You can only watch your silly partner try and impress you while you giggle. Kiriko will join in on the giggling session, making sure to catch all her kunai and stuff them in her pockets. "We're the perfect match... right?" You can see some uncertainty in her eye while she looks directly at you. Simply pull her into a tight hug and this will erase any lingering fear of you leaving her.

Reaper The person literally disappears. You never see that new recruit. Did your lover have something to do with this? You may never know. Maybe you should keep your distance with those who come around...

Moira She would definitely deny any accusations of her being jealous! Do not even try to confront her or ask her why she's acting strange. "What are you on about?" Moira will scoff. You can try to tease her all you like, but it'll come back and bite you in the end. She always knows how to come out on top. After slightly opening up and telling you about her feelings, you'll have to make sure to console her and confess your undying love and loyalty... or else!

hanzo shimada with dragon shifter reader? thank you i love youuu!!!

i love this?? i love you?? mildly sleep deprived while writing these

Hanzo is intrigued, more than anything. His uptight demeanour holds him back from directly approaching you, yet when he incidentally comes across you in the training room, he can't help but feel a luring sense of curiosity. Naturally stealthy, Hanzo watches from the wall - a small sense of awe overtaking him when you shift fully into the most magnificent creature he'd ever seen. You were not like his own two Japanese dragons, you were a large Wyvern, with scales that glittered like sea glass and a moonstone underbelly to match.

Ever since that encounter, his tattoo had itched, his dragons itching to wind free from his arm with flowering curiosity. When it became too much, and the dragons sprung free by their own sheer will - the archer set to seek you out. And while you weren't necessarily hard to find, Hanzo had been softened to find you, sat cross-legged while his dragons snaked around your waist and arms playfully. You returned them in kind - playfully blowing billowing smoke from your nostrils onto their little whiskers, a neat little trick you could do in human form. Hanzo later discovered that you couldn't produce fire whilst human because it would damage you, yet small amounts of smoke was completely plausible.

It's a sweet interaction between you both. Hanzo's dragons weren't usually so bold or disobedient to his commands and when he bashfully tried to call them back - you simply smiled at him, telling him that you didn't mind at all. Hanzo soon finds comfort in your company, his dragons crooning at the familiarity, beckoning him towards you every time. You both grow closer, and Hanzo finds a small warmth that kindles him every time he catches your eye.

Missions are made much easier with you - and Hanzo will never admit it, but the thrill he gets from riding you into battle will never get old. Your wings are strong, beating down on the wind as he sits upon the base of your neck - his keen eye watching over the elegant crest of your head - Hanzo fires one arrow, striking two enemies down.

While in dragon form, Hanzo makes it a point to make sure you're well taken care of. He'll strike down any enemy that even dares aim for your vulnerable underbelly, or gently help pry off any scales you may be shedding. Cassidy caught him pocketing the scales you shed, yet neglected to say anything due to the fond look that flashed across Hanzo's face. The archer deserved some peace.

When the nights are cold, Hanzo comes to you. You run warm, due to the dragon blood coursing your veins. Yet as much as he can bluff or scoff at anyone's accusations, at the end of the day, it's true that even in summer - he'd still seek your touch.

[colemorrison]

"Please don't leave.."

Cassidy's eyes saddened at the sight of Hanzo curled in their bed, eyes just barely peeking out of the blankets. One issue and suddenly the archer felt everything crumbling, his heart hurt, his shoulders felt heavy and it felt like his throat was closing up.

"Why would I ever leave you darlin'?"

At first Hanzo just stared but the cowboy watched those sweet eyes turn wet, and pour tears in the matter of seconds.

"Han.."

These moments felt like a scar, a constant reminder that he was broken and he would never get to be the normal boyfriend Cassidy deserved.

He will forever be a sliver of the person he could've been.

[l0serloki]

Sick

(Cass, Ashe, Moira, Hanzo)

A/N : I have gotten Covid from work and feel like I'm dying. In response to my fatal blow enjoy these lil headcanons.

masterlist

Cassidy :

He gets really worried! Although he will try not to show it.

He will make a few jokes and try to get you in a better mood if it’s even possible.

It’s a bit random but I feel like he’s very good at making soup. He has a lot of experience being able to whip up anything. And he definitely wants to treat you.

He will keep you warm, comfy and fed! You shouldn’t have to worry about a thing with him around. 

Ashe :

The moment she realizes you’re sick there’s a symphony of cuss words and her looking around the house for medication.

She rounds up whatever you need and then some. She will make sure you get better - you’re her responsibility!

She’s good at making sure you’re hydrated and propped up. She wants to make sure you rest and recover properly.

She isn’t scared of getting sick herself. She will hold you and do whatever is soothing for you to relax.

Moira :

Now she’s a bit terrifying when working on her experiments but with you she’s more relaxed.

She is a doctor after all. Even if it’s a bit unethical at times..

She gets any and every vitamin ready. Pills on hand and will nurse you back to health very quickly and effectively. 

She’ll rub her nails down the side of your face and talk about stupid things that happen in the lab. 

Hanzo :

Hanzo doesn’t say anything when he notices you’re sick. He just gets to work.

You’re bombarded with blankets and a big water bottle. He basically force feeds you medication. 

Once you’re settled in bed he will sit on the side and just watch over you, occasionally rubbing your arm. 

I feel like he has some good warm soup/ramen he used to make for Genji and would definitely make for you. You’re his family and he cares.

[gunkyn]

[shiroisotto64]

I have a quick question if you don't mind me asking. Can you please do one where a gender neutral reader is a secret singer? Like they walk on stage and their partner recognizes them even with a costume and makeup. Can I please request Hanzo, Genji, Moira, Lucio, Ramattra, Zenyatta Junker Queen, Junkrat, and Roadhog to be the ones who are the partner who figures out that they're dating a popular singer.

Hanzo

He’s a bit taken aback but he could tell you were hiding something from him. He is a ninja after all. He’s a little hurt that you’d keep something from him.

But after seeing you preform and and all he has calmed down. After meeting back up with you, he’d asked why you hadn’t told him. And after hearing your reason he’d nod and go back to normal. As long as you’re happy he doesn’t mind.

Genji

He’d been scrolling through his phone when all of a sudden he scrolled past a video of an idol that strangely resembles you…wait a minute..that is you!

He’s shocked and the next time he sees you he brings it up. Genji teases you a bit but would also compliment you on your voice and performance.

Moira

She’d found out and was indifferent. Once again Moria isn’t dumb..she knew you were hiding something, but she thought I’d be more juicy or interesting..

But whatever, she did complement you on your voice. She finds it quite soothing actually. And whenever she’s feeling a bit overwhelmed or tired she’ll asked you to sing something.

Lucio

Good luck hiding this from Lucio, but once he’d found out? Oh he was ecstatic! So many compliments. He loved the performance and your voice. He’s just so in love.

Expect him to ask to collab with you, I mean imagine how legendary it would be!? But if you turn him down he’s still super supportive, if you’ll let him he’ll repost some clips of your performances on his pages.

Ramattra

He’s another indifferent one. He likes your voice but he doesn’t really care for the crowd and such. Don’t let this fool you though he’s still very supportive and if you need anything from him, he’s there.

Junker Queen

She’s cool with it. Doesn’t know why you wanted to hide your talent but she digs it. From time to time you’ll hear her playfully singing along to your songs when she’s bored or just trying to get your attention.

Junkrat

He lovessss it! He’ll try to convince you to let him join you on stage! He said he could really help you spice up your performance! Don’t…cause he’ll blow up the stage.

Roadhog

Head pats after he sees your performance. He’s supportive of it in his own way. But he urges you to take breaks and remember to prioritize your health.

Ramblings

Cole Cassidy x Reader

Hanzo Shimada x Reader

Summary: Reader rambling on about an interest of theirs while they realise that their lover hasn’t responded to them in a minute to stop and find them in awe at how adorable their rambling was.

W/C: 350+

A/N: This is completely self indulgent. I was in class with nothing to do and I thought about this and wrote it so here we are, enjoy <3

Cassidy

Cole’s a talkative guy who loves to go on and on about things himself so when he gets to see you do it as well his heart swells at the sight.

He’s so glad that there’s something that you find this much passion in and that you’re comfortable enough to ramble on to him about all these things.

While you’re normally going on about these things though he’ll usually reply to some of the things you say instead of purely listening to let you know that he’s still there.

When you realise he’s stopped replying you turn to look over at him, worried that you might have bore him

Nope.

He has his head propped up by his hand on the table and he’s smiling that same warm, endearing smile that you had fallen in love with all that while ago.

“Gonna keep goin’ sweetheart?”

It wasn’t really a question, more of an encouragement.

Of course you obliged.

Hanzo

Listening to you is a normal thing for him, though that doesn’t mean that he enjoys it any less.

It’s something that he relishes, like Cassidy he loves to see that there's something you’re passionate enough about to open up like this to him.

He definitely asks himself what he did to deserve you.

He’ll just sit while doing something like cleaning his bow.

You are his favourite thing to listen to especially while doing menial tasks.

He’ll occasionally let out hums of acknowledgement to let you know that he’s still listening to you.

Sometimes he’ll put down what he’s doing just to get a good look at you.

He loves seeing the way your eyes seem to have this sparkle while talking about your interests.

Soon a small smile will develop onto his face while he admires you.

You realise how awfully quiet he had been when you stop to check on him and you’re met with him looking lovingly at you with the smallest but most loving of smiles on his face.

“Why’d you stop?”

You shook your head at his question with a grin on your face before returning to the topic you were talking about.

I literally love them. Anyway, if you enjoyed my master list is here 💜

[c1trvswurld]

Saw a tt from a girl where she was venting and she said "Just because you laid up in bed with him, until the sun came up, talking all night kissing on each other, doesnt mean he likes you even in the slightes bit" and I think that's so yeehan coded

[kortsitron]

Ok how would the overwatch cast react to y/n saying on a mission moments before it downpours “ hmmm.” ( insert sniffing noise ) “ it smells like it’s gonna rain. We could probably go inside or seek some type of shelter.”  And then forgetting that they grew up in the Midwest, as I am convinced that the people who can smell rain are mutants. 

Rainy weather

First of all, apologies for answering this so late. I admit I wasn’t sure about these headcanons at first, but after looking at characters I write for – I thought that I can make something fun out of this. And a little fun fact – I think I might be one of those people who can smell rain lol. Anyway enjoy! <3

Genji Shimada

☁ Genji can't really smell rain since almost all the time he has his mask on

☁ Once you say it's going to rain, Genji looks at you surprised

☁ Once you tell him that you can smell in the air, he chuckles 

☁ Then once it actually starts to rain, Genji chuckles again and apologizes

☁ Right after that, jokingly asks what other superpowers you might have

Hanzo Shimada

☁ Hanzo can't really smell rain, so he often got soaked in his life

☁ When you say it's going to rain and how confidently you say it, he looks confused and ask how you can tell

☁ He doesn't believe you at first, but after going to a shelter and sees that it starts to rain, he apologizes that he didn't believe you

☁ You play it off jokingly, because you can tell he's really serious about the apology and explain that everything is fine

Cole Cassidy

☁ I believe Cole is also the person who can smell that the rain is coming, he may even starts smelling the air before you do

☁ But as soon as he hears you sniff the air too, he looks up at you surprised 

☁ He does not argue when you say it's time to look for shelter

☁ Once everyone is safe in the shelter, Cole will ask about it and admit you surprised him, because he did not expect for you to be also able to smell rain

Ramattra 

☁ Ramattra obviously can't smell rain, but his sensors can inform him that there's a change in the air

☁ He will be surprised when he sees you sniff and says it's going to rain

☁ He knows how to kill and hurt humans, but he does not know much beyond that

☁ After finding a shelter, he asks how does human smell that and how common is it for humans be able to smell things like that

Niran Pruksamanee

☁ Niran is a plant mom, so he's almost always aware of the weather

☁ He may not be to smell the rain, but will most likely be aware before mission that it might rain

☁ Niran is confused by your conclusion, just by a few a small quick sniffs

☁ He asks if you're sure and when your answer is positive, he does does not plan on arguing and looks for shelter with you

[the-s1lly-corner]

HI SILLY !! I WANNA REQ CASS AND/OR HANZO W SUPER SHY READER :3 AND THEY HAVE SUCH AN OBVIOUS CRUSH ON EACH OTHER BUT READER IS TOO SCARED TO MAKE THE FIRST MOVE 🫶🫶

Hanzo and Cassidy with a shy!crush

Whaoo!!! Love stuff like this esp since in my head I think these two have near opposite approaches

Cassidy

At first he doesn't notice it; in fact he may think he'd done something wrong when he DOES notice.. you, shying away from him

But then he connects the dots; the slight shift in behavior, the dusting of red on your cheeks, the fidgeting, the stammering. It all just clicks after a few days of trying to comb through anything he may have done to upset you

Messes around a bit, just to be sure that your crush is targeted at him and not someone else

Not gonna lie he'd be equal parts flattered and cocky, but he wont get annoying about it

But even more so he's relieved knowing you feel the same way... that makes it so much easier for him when he finally decides to stop stalling and asks you out

In general he takes it like a champ and mostly doesnt play around or tease you too much

Bonus, but more of a joke hc but the whole

*puts hand on shoulder* "hey" thing from spiderverse.. I cant stop imagining him doing that 😭😭

Hanzo

Listen

I love Hanzo, but I feel like he'd be more wrapped up in other things going on.... and also I truly think he'd be INCREDIBLY oblivious. Like, I'm still building up on my hcs and catching up on lore and development that I've missed in the past 5 years, but I think that when it comes to love (especially crushes and new love) he can be quite he's one of the most.. well, dense

Mistakes your sudden shyness as usually something else; ex. Stress or something of the sort

Really doesnt give it much thought until either you or someone else spell it out for him

Cue him sitting and pondering his own feelings for you

You do make him feel nice, and warm, and fuzzy... there was no denying that he loved you; but he never once considered the possibility of you returning those feelings

That said he is VERY blunt in regards to asking you out

Like very much in a "hey do you want to go on a romantic date" type of way, leaves no room up for interpretation for it to be seen as anything that isnt romantic

[m-musings]

okokokok, i LOVE how you wrote the overwatch boys, and I have a kind of long-winded request for Cassidy, Hanzo, Genji, and (if you write for him) Ramattra:

their s/o was previously a test subject for Talon experiments, something they have nightmares about. how would the boys react to their partner having one of said nightmares and trying to attack the person trying to wake them up.

Headcanons: Cassidy, Genji, Hanzo and Ramattra with a Former Talon Test Subject S/O (Separate)

Cassidy:

When Cassidy awakes in the middle of the night to the sound of you fiercely muttering at no one, its safe to say he's concerned.

He listens for a moment as you make alarmed noises, trying to discern what exactly is going on.

After turning over to flip on the light, he glances over at your sleeping form thrashing around with your brow furrowed in terror.

"N-no... get a...away f-from me..." Cassidy hears you say clearly, getting more worried by the second.

As he begins to reach over to try and rouse you from your slumber, the volume of your voice grows from a to an earsplitting shriek.

As you keep screaming, you start becoming combative, slapping and punching at Cass while somehow still asleep.

"Whoa, hey, hey, hey! Jus' h-hold on a darn second here!" He says as he tries to block your attacks by grabbing your hands.

"No! NO! Let me out!" You wail as tears start streaming down your cheeks.

"Darlin', it's a dream, you gotta wake up! I'm here, just open your eyes!"

Debating between forcing you to wake up and just continuing to reassure you and talk you down from the fear, he decides that the latter is probably going to be the safest for both of you.

After a several minutes long struggle, you slowly stop trying to fight Cole as your once frantic breathing begins to return to its normal pace.

Your tired eyes begin to blink open as the last bit of panic leaves your body in a few small gasps. When you fully regain consciousness, Cassidy sighs in relief as realization begins to sink into your thoughts.

"Are you okay, what the hell happened there?!" Questions Cole as he smooths his hands over your hair.

Choking out a small sob, you gently grasp his bicep to try and ground yourself as more tears begin to fall from your eyes.

"Cass, I-I'm sorry... I- I was back in Talon and the pain j-just wouldn't stop!"

His heart drops at the mention of the evil organization, knowing what kind of awful treatment you went through while kept there.

"I tr-tried to get away but I just.... couldn't! It was awful!" You whisper as you cross your arms over your chest.

"Darlin' I'm so sorry... I am so sorry..." Cole responds faintly before carefully pulling you into a hug.

The room grows still again for a moment, with only the sound of your hushed weeps filling the air.

"I don't wanna go back, please don't let them take me!" You cry into Cole's shoulder as he holds you close.

"No, no, you won't. I swear that as long I'm breathin', I will always make sure you never have to go through that ever again."

Genji:

Genji is all too familiar with nightmares. During the first couple years after his confrontation with Hanzo, he would very frequently have them. He's been through that whole song and dance a million times before.

Which is the reason he immediately knows what's happening when he wakes to the sound of your screams next to him.

He rushes to throw your shared quilt off and make sure you're okay, getting punched once or twice in the process.

After the nightmares pass and you calm down enough to speak, Genji is right there to comfort you.

"It's alright, my love, it is over now... Are you okay?" He questions as he holds one of your palms in his.

You shake your head no as you take several sharp breaths in and out.

"I was there again... in that-that godforsaken lab with fucking Moira prodding at me like cattle! It felt li-like it would never end! I can't go through that again!"

"And you don't have to. I don't know all of what happened to you, but I promise you will never have to face it on your own. I'm here to help you however I'm able to."

As the fearful adrenaline steadily leaves your veins, Genji brings your hand up to his chest so you could feel his heart beating just beneath his cybernetics.

"I love you and will sit here with you as long as you need me too."

With a sad, shaky laugh, you nod and you take your hand back in order to wrap yourself around him.

He does the same in turn as you embrace him ever so slightly tighter before he ushers for you to lay back down together so you can get some much needed sleep.

Pulling the blanket back over your bodies, he scooches in a little closer and begins to hum softly in the hopes of lulling you into a nightmare-less slumber.

Watching as your eyes begin to flutter closed again, he hears you mumble something just before you doze off.

"Thank you, Genji... I love you too."

Hanzo:

Hanzo already has trouble sleeping himself, so when your nightmares come around, he's already wide awake.

As you toss and turn underneath your blanket, he tries to calm you down by running his hand over you head, not caring if he gets hurt by your unintentionaly violent movements.

Once the night-terror ends, you start holding your face in your hands and rock back and forth as Hanzo rubs assuaging circles on your back.

"My dear, what can I do? How do I make the fear stop for now?" The archer inquires as you continue to shake in place.

"I don't know, Han... every time I close my eyes, all I can see is the lights and the wires and the needles... It won't go away no matter how hard I try. I just want them to be gone." You state, anxiously starting to press at your temples.

With a noiseless sigh escaping from his lips, Hanzo moves closer to place an arm across your shoulder and rest his forehead against your head.

"I am sorry for not being there with you. If I were able to change history, I would have gone to great lengths to rescue you."

As you begin to cry at his admission, he places a delicate kiss atop your head.

"I would never ask you to do something that dangerous for me. I couldn't bear it if something happened to you..." You sob out as you bury yourself into Hanzo's side.

Hanzo is quick to wrap his other arm around you, offering a comforting squeeze before ushering you into his lap.

"You wouldn't ever have to ask for my help. I would trade my life for yours if it meant that no more harm would come to you."

Ramattra:

It's uncommon for Omnics to dream- let alone have nightmares- so the first one you have around Ramattra? It comes as a bit of a shock to him.

When he hears you yell, he all but rockets out of his reboot cycle to scan the room for any hidden threats to your safety.

After seeing nobody there but the two of you, he glances down to see you- fast asleep but clawing at the air like a trapped animal scratching at a predator.

He then decides to do a scan of your vitals, just to make sure you aren't in any immediate medical distress. The scan reveals to him that your heartrate and breathing are through the roof.

Just as he's about to cross the room to try and wake you up, you shoot up from your fitful rest with a loud inhale as you slam your hands down onto the mattress below.

Swiftly joining your side on the bed, he cautiously turns your visage towards him as he goes to brush a few stray strands of hair out of your face.

While your eyes try to adjust to the low light of your room, you call out Ramattra's name, receiving a modulated but relaxing shush from his vocalizer.

"Calm yourself, pet, I'm right here. Now, tell me what has happened."

As you take a moment or two to collect yourself and come down from your frenzy, you gaze up to meet the faint glow of his faceplate emitting from his eyes.

"It's Talon; they... tormented me... a long time ago. Had me chained down as a doctor injected chemicals into me before he began flushing them out and started the whole process over again..."

Watching as you barely manage to hold back tears, His joints all seem to freeze in place as fury begins to creep in and take over all his systems.

"They need to suffer for their misdeeds. Who are they?..." He presses, his voice now hauntingly deeper than before .

"I don't know their names, and even if I did, I would do everything in my power to forget them."

An uneasy silence fills the space between you two, staying there for a minute before the large Omnic grunts and lifts you into his arms.

"I am sorry for what you had to go through. Just know that if any pain ever comes your way again, the offenders shall be personally dealt with." Ramattra claims as he rests his faceplate against your jaw.

Relishing in the cool feeling of his metal features against your warm skin, you nod appreciatively before he begins to lightly sway you to and fro.

Watching as you drift back to sleep, Ramattra makes a mental note to hunt down the Talon members who hurt you the next time he meets his allies. He wouldn't and will not stand for the mistreatment of the only human he has ever cared about.

[bruhhhh-huhhhhh]

You didn’t know how long it had been going on. The feeling of hate welling up in your chest every time you saw them interact. It even started to make itself known when Cassidy started talking about Hanzo, even in just passing comments.

The two of you had been sitting in his room, just talking and doing mindless things. You’d picked up the habit of stitching up things that Cassidy hadn’t thought about before, and he was endlessly grateful for it. Often times you add patches or little designs in the fabric, and every time he saw them he’d smile.

Suddenly, Cassidy switched the conversation over to Hanzo. It was no question that the cowboy was head over heels for the archer. You could see it in the way that he looked him. The way his shoulders would sag in relief whenever Hanzo walked into a room. The slight smile that played across his lips when Hanzo sat next to him.

You hated it. Why, you didn’t know, but you did. You hated it so much that it would be hard to breathe. Most times it would be easy to ignore or to shove aside in favor of calling them cute and leaving them to be alone. But sometimes…sometimes you want nothing more than to tear your own hair out and scream and cry anytime they get close to each other.

Maybe it was jealousy. Envy was one hell of a thing, after all. Maybe you wanted what they had. Maybe you just hated seeing people happy when you weren’t the cause of it. Who knows. Certainly not you.

“I just miss him, y’know? Like, I wish he was here right now. That’d be great,” Cole said, looking at the door longingly.

You rolled your eyes but held your tongue. Steering the conversation away from Hanzo wasn’t hard, but you had to do it multiple times in a conversation.

You brought up the next mission, wanting to see what Cassidy has planned. It had been a minute since you had been on a mission, so maybe they’d send you on this one.

“Oh! Me and Han are gonna be goin out undercover. Better people could’ve probably been picked, but I’ve just missed him so much I couldn’t stand to pass up the opportunity. We’ll be great, I know it.”

That was the last straw. You just couldn’t do it anymore.

“Oh, yeah, because you guys are always soooo far away from each other,” you spit out.

Cassidy looks over at you, confused. You’d never talked to him like that before. Not without more provocation. You had a death grip on his poncho that you were sewing up from your spot on his bed. You always sat on his bed while he sat at his desk that had plenty of papers strewn across it.

“What?”

“You talk about him like you aren’t always talking to him. Even when you’re out, whether it be on missions or even just at the store or at dinner with the team, you’re always calling each other or texting or something. You always have each other. And yet you talk about him like he still lives over in Japan and is never going to come back. Even when we’re supposed to be hanging out, just the two of us, you can’t ever seem to shut the fuck up about him. I can’t fucking do it anymore. It’s pathetic.”

Tears have started to well up in your eyes and you let go of the poncho with its half sewn in patch and start to get up. Cole tries to stop you by grabbing your hand and making you look at him.

“What’s going on? Talk to me, y/n.”

“And then what? Have you start talking about Hanzo again when it’s supposed to be about us? No thanks, asshole. I’d rather have the headquarters collapse on me again. At least then someone might actually listen to me when I say something,” you say, yanking your hand out of his and continuing to storm out of the room.

You pass by Hanzo on the way, shoulder checking him so hard he hits the wall. You don’t even look back, just continuing to storm to your room. Hanzo gets up and keeps going to Cassidy’s room, looking at his boyfriend confused as to what was happening. Cole just wrapped his arms around Hanzo and sighed into his chest.

You, on the other hand, had ignored everyone asking you if you were okay and locked yourself in your room. At first you just looked, not knowing what to do. Eventually, you went over to your own desk and started throwing things, screaming the whole time. Your room became a mess within seconds, and you didn’t care.

As you stood, watching the papers you’d thrown settle on the ground as you heaved, trying to catch your breath, the anger gave way to crushing sadness. Tears started to well in your eyes again and you just barely had time to turn off the lights and get under the covers before they fell. Sobs wracked your body as you curled in on yourself. All the pent up misery and pain that you held back came flooding out. There was nothing to stop it, after all.

You cried for what felt like days. Your pillow was throughly soaked and you could barely breathe. The tv screen above your desk lit up, illuminating the room in a blue glow.

“Y/n, your presence is requested for the meeting debrief. You’re 15 minutes late already,” Athena said.

You buried your head further in your pillow and shook your head. “Go away, Athena. Tell them to do it without me.”

“Very well. I’ll tell Winston to go over the details without you present. Are you sick? I could send for Doctor Ziegler to heal you.”

“No, Athena. I’ll be fine. Just leave me alone, please, and make sure no one can come in here.”

Athena doesn’t respond. Her departure is only shown from the room descending back into darkness, leaving you alone once again.

————

The first time he sees you, you’re poised in the middle of Hanamura square, hands wrapped around the blue hilt of your sword. There’s a big smile on your face while you demonstrate a technique to a group of kids sporting wooden swords decorated with stickers and marker drawings. 

It’s a rare occasion for him to leave his apartment these days, even more rare for him to show his face around town. But he’s started to go stir crazy within those walls, and it’s a nice enough day for a walk. 

He leans back against a bike rack and folds his arms across his chest, watching as you go around and correct the stances of several children. You’re so delicate with them, hands gently guiding them into position, encouraging voice cooing at them when they get it right. 

He lets a soft sigh blow past his lips. It’s been a long time since he’s seen such delicacy, and it makes him long for better times. 

You walk back to the front of the group of children and show them another move, the scabbard of your sword glistening in the sunlight. Hanzo watches your movement, silently correcting it in his head. 

You’re good—you’ve definitely had training, but there’s room for improvement. He shakes his head. You don’t need his advice. You’re trying to do a good thing here, teaching the youth of Hanamura and Kanezaka the ways of the sword. 

With recent gang activity and violence, it’s admirable. At least, admirable of those ignorant enough to not see how you’re directly presenting yourself as a threat. 

Hanzo finds himself watching you for the better part of the afternoon, even after the sun begins to sink low on the horizon. Once all of the people have gone home, children rushing down the streets to get home in time for dinner, you start to pack up your things. 

“You can come out,” you say to the pair of eyes watching you from the shadows. “I don’t bite.”

Hanzo considers it for a moment before stepping forwards into the last remnants of the daylight. He doesn’t say anything, but the lift of his eyebrow is an acknowledgment towards you. 

You sling your bag over your shoulder. “So, are you looking for lessons?”

“Lessons?” He scoffs, before clearing his throat, “no.”

“Then what brings you here?”

After living with his controlling father and out of control brother, it’s second nature to Hanzo to think on his feet. He would never openly admit that he found you attractive—that would be inappropriate. But he also doesn’t want to lie to you. 

“The city is dangerous this time of night I, uh,” he sighs, “I thought I’d offer to escort you home.”

“I think that I just demonstrated I’m more than able to take care of myself.”

You try to fight the butterflies in your stomach at this gorgeous man offering to walk you home. Dark eyes look at you through thick lashes, loose strands of black hair falling out of his bun and into his face. 

“Besides, I don’t even know you. How do I know you’re not the danger?”

He extends a hand. “Hanzo.”

“Y/n,” you can’t help but let out a laugh at his eagerness. 

Your eyes trail up his hand, following the line work of his tattooed arm. He has muscles but not the pretty, for show kind. No, these are practical muscles built from pain and practice. 

“So, y/n,” you like the way your name sounds in his gruff voice. “Can I escort you home?”

Your heart flutters at that. Not ‘do you want me to?’, not ‘I thought I’d offer’ but ‘Can I’. It warms you. 

“You promise you’re not going to murder me?”

“The night is young.” His voice is monotone, but the intention is clear. Hanzo is trying to joke with you. 

The two of you walk side by side through the city, making small talk in the dark. You learn that Hanzo grew up here from the way he navigates the streets. He’s an archer, he enjoys solitude and warm sake, and he tenses up whenever he mentions his family. 

He mentions how he doesn’t leave his apartment very often and how he hasn’t connected with anyone in a long time. 

“Why not?”

He shrugs. “I…struggle, sometimes, to connect with others. I don’t like to put myself out there unless I know how it will end.”

“You can’t live your life like that,” you look up at him, and despite the darkness, he can see the sparkle in your eyes. “If you’re always stuck feeling things out, you’ll never get anywhere.”

He looks confused, brows furrowed at your words. He looks so cute like this, you’re tempted to sweep the hair from his face. 

“I’ll put it into terms you'll understand,” you shoot him a teasing grin. “It’s like archery. You miss all of the shots you don’t take, right?”

He nods, wondering where you’re going with this. 

“Sometimes you’re under pressure or a time crunch, and you don’t have time to line up the perfect shot. You just go for it and hope for the best.”

He still doesn’t understand, but you keep going. 

“Sometimes you have to shoot before you see the target.” You say, “sometimes you have to go for things even if you don’t know how they’ll turn out, because what if they turn out better than you could possibly imagine?”

Your words echo in his ears. Sometimes you need to shoot before you see the target. He’s never done that before. He’s always thought of himself as practical and calculated—lining up the perfect shot, holding the perfect position, waiting until the perfect time. He might just have to take your advice. 

Before you know it, you’re at the entrance to your apartment, waving goodbye to Hanzo while you walk up the steps. Hanzo waits until the door locks behind you before heading back to his place. 

He still thinks of you and your dazzling smile and your words. He needs to see more of you, no matter what it takes. 

————

It becomes a little routine for the two of you over the next month—Hanzo comes to watch you teach the kids and walks you home afterwards. 

You get to know each other more and more, and eventually he even opens up about his clan and his brother and his father. You tell him all about your life, too. How you learned to wield a sword, all about your family and your life in Hanamura. 

Eventually you even invite him in for tea or sake at the end of the night, the two of you sitting around the fireplace and chatting even more. He blends right in with your home. All domestic and soft, sharp angles pacified by the softness of his eyes. 

You don’t have his number, you don’t know where he lives. Your whole relationship is based on the silent agreement that he’ll show up for you every day, and that you’ll be there waiting for him. 

You finish up with the kids a bit later today, the sun already setting as you do. You were teaching a particularly hard technique, and you were late making it to the square after work. 

You begin to pack up your stuff. “So, how was your day?”

You don’t see him with your head facing the opposite direction, but you just expect him to be there like every day before. 

You’re met with silence. 

You turn around, slinging your bag over your shoulder. Your eyes narrow at the bike rack where he usually hangs out, only to see that he’s not there. Your head darts in either direction, but the archer is nowhere to be seen. 

Your shoulders slump. You knew it was too good to be true. Whatever. You were fine before him and you’ll be fine after him. Still, it doesn’t stop the way your heart sinks and stomach plummets. 

You begin the walk back to your apartment, hand gripping the sword in your bag just in case. It’s true that the streets have been more dangerous lately, and having Hanzo with you made it feel safer. But you’re fine. You’ve always been fine. You’ll be fine. 

The sound of footsteps behind you has your head snapping backwards. There’s nothing there, and you manage to convince yourself that it’s the echo of your shoes against the buildings. 

You hear more footsteps now and glance over your shoulder. Still nothing. You speed up, eyes locked on the row ahead. More footsteps, louder and faster now. 

You glance over your shoulder and see a group of men dressed in all black chasing after you. You start running, pulling your sword out of your back and ripping it out of the hilt. You’re not going down without a fight. 

You’re so busy looking over your shoulder that you don’t see the man in front of you. You run directly into him, tumbling onto your butt. Your sword clatters across the brick sidewalk out of your reach. Someone rips you off of the ground, forcing you onto your feet. 

A blade presses to your throat, a gruff voice commanding you. “Scream.”

You bite your lip and shake your head. The blade digs in enough to draw blood. 

“You’re not the prey we’re looking for tonight. Obey us and you’ll live.”

You clench your jaw. Prey? What prey are they looking for? What could they possibly be trying to attract by using you?

One of the other men in the group approaches you, sword in hand. He points it towards your chest, poking the tip at your sternum. 

He starts to apply more pressure, but before he can push too hard, there’s an arrow in his chest and he collapses. You squint at the arrow in the dark. 

Suddenly it becomes obvious what their prey is. Or rather, who. 

Another man goes down and you can’t suppress the laugh that escapes your lips. It’s hysterical and rough and raw, and anyone around you would think you’re crazy. 

The man holding the sword to your throat shoved you forwards. “Shut up,” he nudges you along, trying to force you away from the carnage. 

The rest of his men drop around him, perfectly aimed arrows sticking out of them. You glance up in the direction that they’re being shot from, and your eyes meet his. It’s dark and you can hardly see, but you know he’s staring at you. 

Hanzo squints at you in the dark. There’s only one left, and it’s the one holding a sword to your throat. One wrong move and you die. He can’t get a clean shot on the man, he can barely see in the dark and the areas of him poking out from behind you are so tiny he won’t be able to hit them. 

You see the hesitation on his face, the conflict. But you trust him. It’s Hanzo, and he’s kept you safe for this long. You lock eyes with him and give him a nod. 

Hanzo knows what you’re saying without you needing to say it. A month later and your words still ring in his ears. Sometimes you have to shoot before you see the target. 

Hanzo nocks another arrow, takes a deep breath, and releases. The arrow sinks into the man’s shoulder, and he drops his sword to the ground. He tumbled onto the sidewalk and clutches at his shoulder, groaning in pain. 

Tears fill your eyes. He did it. He hit the shot and saved you. 

You pick up your sword from the ground and shove the hilt into the man’s head. He stops groaning, eyes rolling back. 

Hanzo comes running towards you, loose strands of hair blowing in the wind. “Are you alright?”

“You hit the shot,” you breathe. 

His hands are on you before he can stop them. He’s checking your skin for any bruises or cuts, but the only one he finds is the red mark on your skin from the sword. 

He breathes out a sigh of relief, hands gently squeezing your forearms. “I-I’m sorry I was late. There was an issue I needed to take care of and—”

“You saved me.”

Hanzo freezes, mouth falling open. You’re looking at him like he hung the moon, stars in your eyes. 

Before you know it, he’s grabbing you and tugging you into him, lips smashing onto yours. His strong arms hold you securely, scared someone’s going to take you from him again. 

Your hands tangle in his hair, pushing the loose strands from his face. He tastes like sake and brown sugar and everything you’ve ever wanted. You melt into him, letting your body sag against his. 

Hanzo pulls back, a flush to his face you’ve never seen before. “Can I walk you home?”

You lace your fingers with his, offering him a grin. “Promise not to murder me?”

“The night is still young.”
