i'd like to see more of the theme of "family" in overwatch. we see it a lot with ana & fareeha, ram & zen, brig/torb/rein/bastion, genji & hanzo. but those are the obvious ones between playable characters. the ones that are much more clearly written on the wall, even once-in-a-blue-moon players could pick up on. much else is hardly focused on despite how much family (or a lack thereof) has shaped many of the character's lives & identities for better or for worse

i don't like how martina & the unnamed reyes kid are only mentioned in passing, despite gabriel himself visiting often unannounced. clearly they were an important part of his life. clearly, family is an important part of his life — i'm very willing to wager that small passage about the death of his parents in declassified was written very intentionally. his complicated relationship with death, and how it was further affected by his own "death," & how he's now in some warped reversed position with his new family. but we don't get much more than a few voice lines about martina (is she even mentioned by name in-game orrr am i not remembering?)

i want to see how ashe manages the gang throughout the second omnic crisis. or perhaps we could see her mannerisms slightly change with bob. maybe instead of standing side-by-side with him as she is in the reunion cinematic, she puts herself more between him & potential unrealised threats. or maybe she subtly tries to nudge him under awnings whenever she spots ufos, weary they're housing subjugators — little things that are very intentional. maybe her demeanor tilts ever so slightly from confident but guarded, to guarded but confident.

i want to get a better picture of the role sam english played in fareeha's life just from playing the game, especially after ana's presumed death. i want to know more about their relationship other than the christmas dinner they had. i wonder how many players just assume fareeha's father died young, or assume the writers didn't care to write one at all? for a long time, i thought the former. i wonder what sam thinks of some of fareeha's closest friends — has he met cole & angela? what does he think of helix? we hardly even see fareeha's native heritage expressed other than the two skins off the top of my head

what about cassidy & echo? i know this is a more implied one, but cassidy was the first one to nurture her "childlike intelligence." even today, he guides her — he encouraged her to help winston&co at paris when he was still on the fence. one of the cutest things for me is her enthusiastically shouting "hello winston!" mid-battle, presumably not long after cassidy told her to say hi. she probably would've either way, but i also don't want to discredit the role cassidy has had on her development & i really do want to see more of them

or, speak of the devil, how winston views everyone at overwatch as family. how in watchpoint: gibraltar's 1st defense spawn, you can see the little beds he set up for lena and mei, how you can read an email as proof he got the blankets from a small kids blanket business. the way he keeps photos of the gang, years later. how vehemently protective he was of all their locations. i wish we could see it reciprocated a little more, i wish we could see individual sleeping areas for other heroes as the story progresses, or more items on his desk. & that's not even getting into hammond

& i don't think i can have a family post without mentioning dad 76 or how i desperately want to see benicio being the best supportive dad for lúcio more but honestly i'm getting pretty sleepy so either i'll add more later or someone can add more.

depending how you stretch the definition of family here, it can include other dynamics too. baptiste finding a new sense of belonging in the new overwatch, or mei braving the antarctic to not let her team's death go in vain & to help people who can still be helped — from jiayi and her team still on mars, to the people who now need her help on earth. i'd also argue hana's squad in korea. what are niran's siblings up to? are we gonna see more of efi & orisa? moreover, how are all these non-playable side character characters handling the invasion? i guess we got some texts between lena and emily

family is such a powerful motivator, but can also be really complicated, as seen with the amaris and shimadas + kiriko, i wish we got a similar amount of investment some other places too

a major theme of overwatch is moving towards the future, progressing in some way. & that looks different for everyone depending on their emotional readiness to do that, and what they view "progression" as. so it makes sense a lot of characters don't look back on those they lost along the way so much, at least not too openly (zarya comes to mind), but that's what can make their present relationships with others that much more worth preserving & seeing

probably an impossible ask of a game feeling the effects of layoffs that's primarily focused on pvp/bp/shop items but ykn

thank u for coming to my tedtalk

Request open!!

Stop this madness because now I have a horrible obsession with venture so PLEASE PLEASE REQUEST PLEASE PLEASE

I would prefer venture requests BUT do send characters of your choice and I’ll try to write them or tell you if I don’t write for them (because my rule post is so outdated I don’t even think it has overwatch)

[thee-ratbaby]

Hello overwatch fandom!

Welcome to my - x reader blog, after I introduce myself and lay down some ground rules, I'll be more than happy to take your request!

You can call me Cupid, or mod, or rat. My username is from a deleted blog because this is a *super* functional website/app

I am 18+ and expect you all to be as well. I will write nsfw so please, NO MINORS

I've written fic on and off for >15 years and I'm looking to get back into it to grease the wheels of writing original fiction!

I am pro ship friendly, although I have limits on what I'll write (which I'll list later). I don't use labels, but I am against any form of harassment.

Requests I'll take:

- matchups (please provide sexuality or gender/s your attracted to, hobbies, likes and dislikes, notable physical traits, skills and abilities (if you're pairing an oc or self insert) and anything you deem relevant to the match making process)

- drabbles (I will not write: underage, scat or urine, incest, noncon (cnc is fine), or cheating. Any requests with these themes will be deleted without response)

- headcanons (most common, likely, since it's easiest for me to write at the moment)

I don't have a put together dni, typically ill just block anyone if I don't like their behavior or they're disrespectful, but for a few obvious ones...

DNI

terfs, racists, "maps", zoos, antis, exclus, and sigma lovers (/j)

The only characters I will not write for are winston and Hammond, as they're animals.

I will add that I'm physically disabled and it sometimes affects my ability to type, so please excuse if a request takes a bit or if there are typos. My spell check works harder than the marines.

Much love, and hope to hear from you all soon,

-Cupid

Support + DPS Friendships

So, I noticed a pattern, and that is the fact that most Support have a DPS bestie. Like, it's an honest to god trend and I love it!!

Let me show you;

Cassidy + Mercy

They have known each other since they were at the very least 17 and are confirmed to have been fairly close by canon. Not only that but Angela is the only person to have a line with Cassidy confronting him about smoking.

Genji + Zenyatta

They are both fairly close, mentor-mentee type close, and Zenyatta was basically Genji's therapist.

Ana + Solider 76

They are currently traveling together, Ana is essentially Jack's impulse control. They have been friends since the Crisis.

Sombra + Baptiste

Met in Talon and are still friends today, Sombra actively hides Baptiste from Talon. It also wouldn't surprise me if she's the one who told Baptiste that Cassidy was in Cairo.

Hanzo + Kiriko (Genji could also fit here)

Hanzo and Kiriko were somewhat close growing up, from they're voice lines it seems that they might have an arc together and maybe even join Overwatch at the same time.

Torbjourn + Brigitte

Farther and daughter. Both extremely close with Reinhardt.

Reaper + Moira

Not really a friendship but defiantly a duo. These two have known each other since Blackwatch. Do they like eachother? That is debateable, but you can't really explain either of their history without mentioning the other. You also can't tell me that they don't talk shit about Cassidy.

Honourable Mentions (Tank + Support)

Dva + Lucio

Though they haven't met in canon yet they are both confirmed to be fans of the other and considering they are both joining Overwatch I do see them becoming a dynamic duo.

Reinhardt + Brigette

They actively travel together. TBH when I first saw Brigette I thought she was going to be Reinhardt's daughter. They are two peas in a pod, but like Ana, Brigette is Reinhardt's impulse control.

HAVE SOME OVERWATCH MEMES THAT I MADE

[melssoiree]

random hcs as somone who forgot all the ow cinematics after watching them all years ago:

kiri is 30 purley to help with her lore w hanzo and genji-she was like their little sister.

hanzos dragons have names, but he never says what they are.

ana and widow dispute alot to the point where they cant be near each other for more than 0.2 milliseconds

dva and lucio met online before meeting irl-they play video games together.

sombra and dva are literally bestie boos but she gets mad when sombra hacks games

widow and reaper are bestie boos and sombra 3rd wheels

sombra is the most extroverted introvert ever and is into geeky shit like anime bcus of dva

dvas fav anime is madoka magica and any romantic anime.

venture and junkrat rant for hours about eating rocks and worms and they chat online and irl for ages

junkrat is a HUGEEE junker queen simp but shes lesbian.

tracer and emily r cutiepies and emily worries abt tracer dying

moria and reaper WERE close

echo,orisa,bastion and venture are non bianary but echo,orisa and bastion have pref prns (more so what people say iykwim)

venture has a mix of masc and fem body features and nobody knows their original gender

soldier is gay for reaper/hj
