safety pin (ow highschool au)

summary: jesse and genji make a promise to each other and maybe, this time, two wrongs will make a right. read it on ao3

a/n: this is very based off the song safety pin by 5 seconds of summer bc im on a mcgenji and old 5sos kick rn. Featuring an american high school written by a british first year college student. Also jesse and hana are jack and gabes kids ok good cool also genji is trans and lucio is enby ok bye 

genji and jesse use he/him, hana uses she/her and lucio uses he/they

Ships: mcgenji, a sprinkling of bunnyribbit and background reaper76

word count: 1.2k (this is the longest fic i’ve ever written holy shit)

tw for mentions of transphobia and gender dysphoria/ self deprecating talk

Jesse just wanted to get to his locker. But instead, he was greeted with a crowd of people shouting horrible things at someone. Upon further investigation, he saw two people being targeted. And when the taller boy saw the green, he knew it was Genji and Lucio. 

Genji could usually stand up for himself, so why wasn’t he? 

Before anything could happen physically, the vice principal, Jack Morrison, appeared with his husband and head of phys ed, Gabriel Reyes, in tow. They were the teachers in charge of the GSA and they were also Jesse’s parents. They both knew how much Genji meant to Jesse, and how much Lucio meant to Genji so they were always first to take their side whenever anything happened to them.  

“Get to class, all of you!” Jack shouted, his voice laced with anger but also an attempt to stay professional. Gabe weaved through the crowds in an attempt to get them to disperse, before he caught the dickheads responsible.

“Principal's office. Now” Gabe scowled, his voice also laced with anger.

 As the crowd cleared, Jack spotted Jesse and Hana, worry plastered on their faces.

“Jesse, Hana, stay here.” he said, his voice much softer. He had a soft spot for any of the kids in the GSA, he’d been in their position years ago and was glad to give them the help he wished he had. At this point, the GSA was just the entire queer population of the school and no allies, but that was fine. They could all just unapologetically be themselves, without the fear of judgement. The GSA was the safest place in the school to be for them. 

“I’ll let your teachers know what's gone on and have them mark you in for the rest of the day but you don't have to go to class.” He was addressing the four of them now, voice still soft but laced with concern for the green duo. “I’ll write you all hall passes but you’re free to sit in our room if you want to. I’ll also notify all staff about what’s happened and I’ll be in my office if any of you need me.” 

“Thank you, Sir.” the four of them said in somewhat unison. Once Jack had walked off, Hana rushed over to Lucio, who was leaning against the wall and still shaking from the encounter.

“Lú! Are you ok?” Hana asked, concern now laced through her voice. She cradled Lucio’s head in her hands, rubbing away their tears. 

“Yeah, I’ll be fine, Hana. It’s nothing I haven’t heard before. I guess I deserve it, wearing a skirt to school” they replied. Being one of two openly trans people in the entire school was bound to go wrong at some point. 

“Shut it, dingus. We both know you don’t deserve it. It’s not our fault people are transphobic assholes.” Genji chimed in. 

“Exactly!” Hana said. “Now, let's go sit in the room and fix your makeup. You deserve to feel pretty, baby.” With that statement, the pair set off, hand in hand, to the room that GSA meetings were held in, leaving Jesse and Genji alone in the hallway. Genji was still processing what happened but Jesse pulled him back to reality.

“Our spot?” Jesse asked, voice quiet in order to not disturb the students learning in the class opposite them. Genji just nodded, and after Jesse got his bag from his locker (which was the only reason he was in that part of the school anyway), they set off toward the exits.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Thank god I got some snacks, I forgot we were gonna have a shorter lunch. I’m starvin’.” Jesse started, plonking himself down on the ground with Genji following suit opposite him. “You ok darlin’? Ya still look scared. How come ya didn’t stand up for yourself? I know you can, the entire grade has seen ya do it before.”  Genji chuckled and sighed, before replying.

“I was already having a bad enough day with my dysphoria and I was talking about it with Lucio when someone overheard us and.. yeah.” 

“Oh, baby, I-”

“No, it’s fine.” Genji said, cutting Jesse off. “They’re right, I’m not a real man and never will be. I wouldn’t be surprised if you wanted to break up with me, Jesse.” Genji couldn’t hold back the tears any longer and before he could say anything, he was in Jesse’s arms. One of the few places he felt safe. One of two places where he could exist without judgement.

“Dumplin’, I know it’s hard but please never believe anything those assholess say. You’re not only a man, but you’re MY man and I’m not going anywhere. Nothing will ever change that. Ever. They’re just asshats that lack so much self confidence that they tear others down.” Jesse said softly, cradling his lovers face in his hands, wiping away tears. 

Genji melted at any nickname Jesse gave him, especially dumpling. It came from an in-joke on their first date, where Genji had compared himself to a dumpling, small and bite sized (compared to Jesse anyway) and the nickname stuck ever since. 

“Do ya want me to do anything, darlin’?” Jesse murmured, rubbing circles on Genji’s back in an effort to calm his tears.

“No, this is fine for now.” Genji barely whispered, not even daring to look up at the brunette. Just as Jesse was about to reply, his phone pinged. 

buncha fuckin misfits

padre: the dickheads have been dealt with and they’re outta here

gaymer gorl: good riddance lmao

boy scout lookin ass: those kids have done this multiple times and i’m surprised it took this long to expel them 

boy scout lookin ass: how are gen and lú by the way?

gaymer gorl: i redid Lú’s makeup and they’re back to lookin fabulous!

yee to the haw: just givin’ gen some cuddles, he was already havin’ a bad day with dysphoria and he just needs some convincin’ that he’s stronger than he thinks. he’ll be ok :)

With that, Jesse shut off his phone and turned his attention back to the green haired boy in his arms. The brunette ran his hands through the sea of green hair beneath him, letting out a low whistle when he realised how soft it was.

“I redyed it last night” Genji said, his tears having pretty much run dry at his point. 

“Well, ya better tell me what hair products you use, darlin’. Wish my hair was as soft as this.” 

Genji let out a chuckle, which made Jesse smile. He’s getting there. 

The pair stayed like that for some time until Jesse had an idea. He reached over to his bag and pulled a safety pin off the strap, handing it to Genji. Before Genji could question him, he began to explain himself.

“ Maybe we can safety pin the pieces of our broken hearts back together. We’ve both been hurt so much in the past, and we’re obviously gonna wanna be whole in the future. So, I’ll give you this as a promise, that I’m always gonna have your back and the one on my bag is your promise to me, that you’ll always have my back. Make sense?” Jesse said, pinky extended towards his love, smile creeping onto his face.

“Of course.” Genji replied. “Besides, maybe, this time, two wrongs make a right.”

Hello all!

This is a (very late) @yoisecretsanta18 gift for @elwritessometimes who requested some Otayuri Christmas fluff! I hope that your Holidays were filled with nothing but happiness and fluff, and i’m sorry that this is so late!

[vldrocketeer]

I made the blog! Its elwritessometimes (i like el, its more gendernutral) and i have sone voltron x reader stuff in mind!

Yay!!! :3

blackwatch team dealing with the heat

a/n: there is currently a heatwave happening in england and i’m massively hyperfixating on this strange little family so fucking take these headcannons please ok bye i swear i’m actually working on some fics

also genji is trans on this page ok he’s a big ol’ comfort character

and some mcgenji hehe >:3

Ok so at one point a heatwave hits the base and Jack says training is optional until its over

meaning this gives everyone a few days off

So Gabe and Mccree would be fine the heat because Gabe is from LA and Jesse is from the south of the US

But Genji and Moira

Are dying

Genji is mostly metal which doesn’t help anything 

but thank god he doesn’t have to suffer through warm ass summers with binding anymore

And Moira isn’t built for this, Ireland is cold and rainy most of the time.

Mccree finds comfort in it because he remembers the warm summers spent with deadlock just causing mischief

And the odd water fight

Genji spends most of the time starfishing on the kitchen floor because its the coldest place in the base.

No one questions it

Then like 2 hours later everyone hears “The Winner Takes It All” from Mamma Mia at full volume.

Let him live he’s having a moment about losing his first boyfriend to his transphobic ex 

Moira actually stops her experiments for once and binges that anime she’d started ages ago

Gabe reveals the next day that there’s a pool outside right next to the blackwatch quarters.

 Genji and Jesse are offended that he didn’t tell them soon

Thank god Genji’s cybernetics are waterproof

Gabe knows exactly why he didn’t tell the pair about it.

Within 10 minutes of being in the pool, they started having a water fight. 

Within 2 minutes of that happening, Gabe was joining in as well.

Moira just judged them from inside. 

Gabe saw Genji sneaking glances at Jesse and vice versa and made a bet with Moira that they’d get together that night

Gabe: Bet you $20 that they’re gonna get together

Moira: aight cool

lets just say moira is now $20 richer

This was actually Genji’s first time in a pool after his top surgery (i hc that he got it about a month before his fight with hanzo) and he felt so fucking free 

all in all, a good few days off. but hey, there ain’t no rest for the wicked

we were the dumb, the wild the free | voltron

anon asked: Can you write something for katt (keith x matt)? Some fluff, maybe from their Garrison days.

of course i can dear anon! i tried to answer your ask but tumblr ate it >:(

this is loosely based off he chorus of Little League by Conan Gray:

When we were younger

We didn't know how it would be

We were the dumb, the wild, the free

Little League

And when we were younger

We wore our hearts proud on our sleeve

Why did we ever have to leave?

Little League

send me songs for a rebelfire (keith x matt) playlist

Being roommates with your boyfriend was great. (oh my god they were roommates) It meant being able to cuddle him every night and you don't have to worry about sneaking out of the other’s room and risk getting caught by Iverson, or worse, Shiro. 

When Matt told Keith that he was going to Kerberos, they were both determined to make as many memories as they could. Did this mean sneaking out onto the roof of the Garrison at 3am? Of course it did.

The first time they snuck out, Matt was apprehensive, but seeing Keith smile made all of his worries melt away. God, he could just stare at Keith all day. His eyes were purple like amethysts and his smile could light up an entire room.

“Matt? You ok, babe?” Keith’s voice broke through Matt’s thoughts. 

“Yeah, I’m fine. Just seems crazy that we’ve been doing this for so long and by next week, it’ll all be over and I’ll be up there,” Matt replied, pointing upwards. Keith averted his gaze to where Matt was pointing. The sky. Space. Kerberos. 

“Jesus, we really have been doing this for a while. It feels like just yesterday that you told me,” Keith chuckled and reached his hand out to Matt’s, lacing their fingers together. “But, until then, I’m gonna make sure you have the best week of your life.”

The school week went by in a flash and before they knew it, Saturday rolled around and they headed into the local city to just be kids and not have to worry about Kerberos. They spent the entire weekend in the city as Shiro had an apartment there for school breaks and he trusted the two not to wreck it. The weekend consisted of bowling (which Matt won), laser tag, lots of Matt’s favourite food (it was all Japanese food and Keith wasn’t going to complain) and spending far too much money at the arcade. Keith came back to the Garrison with a hippo plushie and Matt came back with a plastic axolotl, to remind him of his last weekend on Earth with his love. 

They lay in bed that night, Matt knowing that it would be the last time he would have Keith in his arms for a while as he was spending the following night with his family. The low glow of their rainbow fairy lights made the boys feel at ease.

“Don’t leave please. I don’t know how I’ll survive without your hugs,” Keith whispered. It can’t have been later than midnight but time seemed to stop when they were in each other’s arms. 

“I’ll be back as soon as I can. I promise,” Matt replied, pulling his boyfriend closer to him. This made their noses boop together and they giggled, Matt admiring how adorable Keith was. 

They could both happily stay that way forever.
