Hello! I adore your fics x3 I have one request

Please do not hate me after this

Ramattra x F!Reader

She died (it doesn't matter how) and he's on her grave reflecting about their time together. He may have some regrets or thinking things he could've done differently

Also you can add him venting to Zenyatta about his feelings?

The way my jaw dropped when I read this... hhhhhh, okay, who's ready for some angst?

A year marks your death, an unfortunate passing for some. Not a day goes by when you aren't remembered and that's thanks to one omnic in particular.

Ramattra had spent the first month mourning you, something he never knew was possible thanks to his hardened demeanour. The cold hearted shell he had been encased in was shattered the moment you entered his life... and now you were no longer here, leaving the wounds wide open for any and every infection.

It only got harder for him as the months went by. It took him too long to adjust, attempting to go back to how life was before he met you but no matter what he tried, you were always in the back of his systems.

Meditation was useless, his memory filling up with every photo and video of you. Charging because hours of restarting just to have some peace. It was torture for him. Maybe if he just switched off himself it would relieve that burden...

Zenyatta found him sitting at your grave, the year after the event that led to your death. Ramattra wasn't alert, he was weak.

"Brother..." The older monk started, placing a hand on Ramattra's shoulder.

"If only I was there to protect her." Ramattra hums, a noticeable twinge of pain in his voice. "She would still be here."

"You cannot dwell on the past, brother."

"It is my fault she is gone." His head lowers. "If I had just listened to her, trusted her, then she would-"

"Ramattra." Zenyatta takes a seat beside the younger omnic. "This is not your fault."

"She... She was everything to me, brother Zenyatta." His metal heart felt like it was breaking. "She is no longer here because of me."

"You did not kill her."

"No, but-"

"Then stop blaming yourself." Zenyatta looks over at the marble, the fresh flowers seated below your name.

The silence that fell between them was uncomfortable. Ramattra fiddled with his staff, unsure of what to do or say.

"Their presence is missed greatly." The smaller monk spoke out. "You are not suffering alone, brother."

Ramattra turns his head as Zenyatta speaks.

"I know you were there by her side more than any of us here in the monastery, but she had an impact on everyone."

"I have heard the comments." Ramattra states.

"Then you know that you are not alone."

Ramattra scoffs, turning back to your grave.

"Brother-"

"I do not need to hear it." His optics look down at his hands, white faceplate hiding the pain. I should have held her back. Her death is on me. Looking up towards the sky, he witnesses the first falling of snow.

One by one, snowflake after snowflake, do they kiss his faceplate before melting from his internal heat, temporary tears in place of his that he cannot shed.

"She is still with us." Zenyatta tries to reassure the taller omnic.

"Always with me." Ramattra speaks, looking at the single snowflake resting on the charm that he had put onto his staff, one that you had made specifically for him.

Wait for me, my love...

OW2 Junkrat & Roadhog Relationship (part 2)

Part 1: [click] Part 3: [click] Part 4: [click] Part 5: [click]

This is my second post on me trying to understand Junkrat and Roadhog's relationship dynamic in OW2. This second post is looking at Roadhog's OW2 voice lines sourced from his wikia page and a video on twitter with some unused voice lines (source links will be under the cut). Again, I’ll only be talking about lines that I think give insight into Junkrat and Roadhog’s relationship and how they think of each other.

As I said in my previous post, I am biased for viewing their dynamic positively because I ship roadrat; but I'll try to include negative or neutral interpretations as well.

Anyway, interpretations are under the cut!

This first set of quotes are from his OW2 voice lines wikia page.

“Dipstick.” (Pig Pen triggered)

I feel like this line is typically associated with Junkrat and wasn’t something Roadhog said before his Pig Pen ability was added

Could suggest that Junkrat’s speech quirks have rubbed off on Roadhog

“Caught the rat.” (enemy Junkrat trapped)

refers to Junkrat with rat-related nicknames (or just “the rat")

“That little grubber... *grunt*” (eliminated by Junkrat)        

Uses patronizing nicknames for Junkrat

Doesn’t seem to respect Junkrat

“I’m tired of hearing your voice.” / “Now will you shut up?” / “Peace and quiet.” (eliminating Junkrat)

Junkrat is really chatty around Roadhog

Roadhog thinks Junkrat’s chattiness is annoying

“Never liked science.” (eliminating Moira using Coalescence, Sigma using Gravitic Flux, or Zarya using Graviton Surge) / “You eggheads stay away from me.” (with multiple scientists on team: Lifeweaver, Mei, Mercy, Moira, Sigma or Winston)

Roadhog doesn’t like scientists; this could potentially be used as a point of tension between him and Junkrat, as Junkrat seems to think of himself as a scientist sometimes (���Who says I can't be a scientist? I can be whatever I want.”).

This sort of tension isn’t really addressed between them afaik, I just put it here bc I thought it could be interesting LOL

“Someday, I'm just going to leave you.” (Elimination, said to ally Junkrat on low HP)

From the tone of his voice, this suggests Roadhog seems to get exasperated with having to save Junkrat’s ass all the time

Taken in isolation, this line can suggest that Roadhog is tired of Junkrat’s antics and plans to leave him one day

Taken in context (which is Roadhog saving a low HP Junkrat), this could be seen more as a hollow threat meant to signal his frustration to Junkrat rather than an earnest expression of wanting to end their partnership

Again taken in context, I think this kinda suggests that Roadhog often gets Junkrat out of tricky situations (something like “someday I’m going to leave you. And then what’s gonna happen to you? You’re gonna get into trouble because I’m not there.” -> kind of has this implication that Roadhog saving Junkrat is something that happens so often that it would be a problem for Junkrat if Roadhog wasn’t there)

“No job too big, no score too small.” (Summer Games voice line)

This is his and Junkrat’s “tagline” as partners in crime, as seen on Junkrat’s official OW2 Hero profile

Suggests he is a little willing to play into the cartoonish partners in crime dynamic that Junkrat set up for them, or at least is aware of it

“At least I’m not a rat.” (along with “At least I’m not a hog.” from Junkrat)

Taken in isolation, could suggest that Roadhog doesn’t like Junkrat

Could suggest a sort of competitiveness between the two of them, or possibly that the two of them bicker

Sojourn: Follow my lead, and we make it out of here in one piece.

Roadhog: Watch the high ground.

Sojourn: Huh, I didn't take you for a tactician.

Roadhog: Used to it.

Could suggest Roadhog is more of the tactical one between him and Junkrat, despite Junkrat’s posturing as the leader between the two of them

Sojourn: I remember Overwatch tailing you back in the day. Before you teamed up with your... sidekick.

Roadhog: Quieter times.

Roadhog doesn’t deny that Junkrat is his “sidekick,” so it’s possible he thinks of Junkrat like that

On the one hand, this suggests that he doesn’t respect Junkrat as a leader

On the other hand, this does suggest that he does at least see him and Junkrat as an odd pair of sorts

Roadhog thinks Junkrat is noisy

He likely misses having peace and quiet without Junkrat

Roadhog having a past connection to Overwatch could mean something for Roadhog and Junkrat’s dynamic considering Junkrat sometimes seems admirable of Overwatch in his voice lines, but idk there’s not really anything to work off of from just this

These next voice lines were sourced from here; it’s unclear of what the context is for these since not all of them were added to the game. (Think they were canceled (?) PVE voice lines or something)

“Someone pick up the rat.”

Again, refers to Junkrat as “the rat”

Seems reluctant to help Junkrat

“Somebody killed Junkrat.”

The most interesting interpretation I can come up with for this is at least he bothered to point out that Junkrat was killed LOL

Summary of this section: Overall Roadhog seems to find Junkrat noisy and annoying, he doesn’t respect Junkrat as a leader, and he complains when he has to get Junkrat out of trouble. There is some indication that he does recognize his partnership with Junkrat and sees the two of them as an odd pair. It’s possible that he gets Junkrat out of trouble frequently, which could imply that he feels some sort of obligation to help Junkrat instead of actually leaving him. At the same time, it’s possible that he’s so frustrated with saving Junkrat all the time that he wants to end their partnership. Unlike Junkrat, Roadhog doesn’t bring up Junkrat on his own in conversation with others and only seems to talk about Junkrat when someone else brings him up. At least one of Junkrat’s speech quirks has rubbed off on Roadhog, suggesting they’re around each other often and possibly Roadhog does pay attention to Junkrat.

Other caveat: imo it’s unclear how much of his reluctance and negativity should be taken super seriously--he does seem to be really grumpy around Junkrat, but he’s also really grumpy around everyone LMAO;; though I will say he does seem more grumpy around Junkrat than he does around other characters. Is the fact that he’s more grumpy around Junkrat mean that Junkrat is special in some way, or does that just mean he particularly dislikes Junkrat….???? Idk it’s up for interpretation. I feel like characters like Roadhog who don’t really wear their emotions/intentions on their sleeve are kind of hard to parse outside of a story that has a narrative or purpose, so with OW2 being a pvp shooter with no plot there’s not exactly a lot of clues for how to interpret his grumpy attitude besides. grumpy.

I could also say a little bit about Roadhog’s nicknames for people (which started with the catch-a-mari event iirc), but I'm gonna save that for a different post.

Anyway! That’s all. I’m gonna look at the “A Friendly Rivalry” short story in the next post, and maybe some other stuff idk I haven’t decided how I wanna organize it yet. Thanks for reading!
