#i just really like talking about heavymedic

[scruncheduppaper]

okay whatever im responding to this post sorry i went off topic a little bit because i love heavymedic and i just wanted to rant abt them for a bit

i think the problem with the “boring” representation of the characters comes from when theyre mischaracterised, people fit them into old tropes without actually looking deeply at the characters themselves, reusing the same shit over and over again because people dont know any different. and i dont blame them, being in fandom culture for a long time tends to make people do things like that

but at its best, heavymedic acting like a “married couple” (in the sense that theyre heavily, heavily in love and sickeningly affectionate and sweet with each other) is anything BUT boring. the contrast between the incredibly sweet lovey dovey stuff they do and the incredible violence that they enact onto other people (and sometimes each other, you know, unethical surgery and shit) feels very close to the original spirit of tf2 and also its just hilarious! i like/dont mind the wholesome stuff a lot because we generally dont really get to see medic outside of his work setting at all in canon tf2 media, we dont see his personality much beyond “incredibly crazy mad scientist” and just seeing him being put into situations that Arent that is just cool to me. idk. i really like @parisoonic’s interpretation its very funny and silly to me and i love his art

i agree with the bit about protection etc but id also like to add its less abt defense and its more about them being a crazy power couple on the field and both of them enjoying the feeling of killing people. you know what i mean? like theyre not doing this to protect each other (mostly) but its to fulfill their desire for more violence and shit

unrelated but also i think part of the reason i like them so much is that. their personalities mesh so well. because they kind of Are semi-canon and theres a whole entire document about it (https://archiveofourown.org/works/38061973/chapters/95073271 ) and then the proof with the achievement at the end idk its so awesome to me that one of my favorite ships in all of fiction has so much canon backing. and it works well because in turn the characterisations of them in canon lend themselves well to seeing them in a romantic relationship! its awesome its great theyre great

i think we can achieve the best of both worlds by just looking at their canon personalities and relationship and just kinda extrapolating from there idk you cant go wrong with that i dont think! i dont know if this post made any sense but yeah i love them ill never stop talking about them etc

HeavyMedic 🔥👀

Oooh this is gonna be fun... okay idk if this is an "unpopular opinion" either but I DO feel like I'll be shooting some live rounds into a hornet's nest so: some of you just make heavymedic boring I'M SORRYYYYY. Idk there's just a very generic, very "fandom-incorrect-quotes" type feeling to a lot of heavymedic content that I've seen, which I guess isn't really unique to them but they're so popular that I see it so much. I find the "very generic Wholesome Married Couple" thing to be boring for them, it doesn't really fit with the Fucking lunacy of either of these characters and doesn't let their respective jokes shine in my opinion. Oh also heavymedic characterized primarily by Heavy "protecting" Medic is tired. I think on a character level neither of them should be primarily occupied with "protecting" the other, they'd both be very aware of the other's battle expertise and physical capabilities and I also think that either of them would eventually get pretty fed up with being treated like they can't protect themselves, but on a gameplay level everyone knows it's Heavies who can't leave the fucking house without a Medic LMAO

The time i publicly destroyed a TF2-playing bigot at school

TF2 fans are actually all around us, and I was unlucky enough to have a really unsavory interaction with a guy who hates fangirls. This might sound fake, but trust me, my life really is stranger than fiction.

Me and my friend in class were peacefully talking about our favourite ships (Her favourite was HeavyMedic and mine is SniperScout, as it should be) as well as who we main ingame. (She plays Spy and I played Heavy.)

Suddenly, a short guy came up to us. He looked really mad already, having heard that we're girls who play TF2.

Manlet: Uh, you REALLY play TF2? You know you have to be good to play Spy, right?

I raise my eyebrow at him, and my friend laughs a little bit.

Me: Uh, she really DOES main Spy. Who do you play?

Manlet: *beginning to shake a little, realizing that we're not kidding* Uh, I play Scout. I bet you're not even good at TF2.

My friend started chuckling, and then I giggled too. We were both thinking "of course this guy plays Scout, he's so annoying, he even looks a little bit like Scout!"

Manlet: What? What's so funny? What's wrong with being a Scout main?

Me and my friend shake our heads and insist that there's nothing wrong with playing Scout, because we can tell this guy is about to blow up on us.

Manlet: I bet you main Soldier, cunt!

By now, me and my friend can't help but giggle a little. He really was serious about this. But what he says next shocks us.

Manlet: I bet you're one of those fangirls who looks at gay TF2 fanfiction on Tumblr and Wattpad, you probably don't even play the game!

My friend: *laughing* What's wrong with reading fanfiction? And yes, we do read TF2 fanfic. I just finished a really good HeavyMedic fic the other day.

By now, more of the classroom had noticed that me, my friend, and the homophobic Scout main were in a fight. Multiple people turned to look at us.

Me: Right. Fanfiction is a perfectly acceptable way to engage with a video game you like. I bet your next line is going to be something along the lines of "the mercs aren't gay!"

Manlet: It's just weird! The TF2 guys aren't g- *He stuttered. He seemed absolutely shocked because I guessed his next line.*

Me: Typical homophobe, as expected. Anyways, I've got a SniperSpy fanfiction to read, if you would so kindly leave me and my friend alone. We're proud fangirls.

Suddenly, the teacher spoke up from the other side of the room. Our heads snapped to the side to look at her, it seemed like she'd been listening to our entire conversation like the rest of the classroom.

The teacher: I agree. It's never okay to make homophobic statements, and reading fanfiction is entirely okay! Don't bash people for their hobbies, [Manlet's real name]!

The manlet froze in place, jaw gaping. He didn't even say anything, just a couple squeaks came out of his mouth.

The teacher: Also... did I hear SniperSpy? I'm a fan of TF2 as well, I can't lie! What fic are you reading?

By now, there were tears rolling down the manlet's face. He covered his face with his hands and stormed out of the room crying.

And then, me and my friend went back to talking about TF2 ships in peace. Even the teacher joined in. It really is true that there are fangirls everywhere!

[canisxx]

i used to like heavymedic but the shippers constantly going "bwah, its so canonz!" and constantly bringing up the ship unprompted on my posts that have nothing to do with it made me despise it very quickly lol. im pretty sure i have every tag related to it blacklisted so i never have to hear anything related heavymed ever again

plus its fucking annoying how the fandom seems unable to talk about medic or heavy as their own separate characters outside the ship to the point where it takes total presedence over their characterization but thats just me ig

It really makes me sad ngl.

Seeing how people unironically make Medic into some kind of a whore, completely ignoring his personality, problems, backstory. To the point where his whole personality is just being gay. It's upsetting, really.

Same for Heavy, he's a tragic character with beautiful story, but why do so few people see him only next to Medic :(

Of course not all of TF2 fans, absolutely not all of them. Just some individuals

[another-delta-lover]

-THIS POST IS BASED ON @jamisonwritestf2trash 's post about Meet The Medic!!!-

(This post is heavymedic btw, I'm not doing an actual analysis XD) (ISTG IF TUMBLR MESSES UP HOW I PUT THE PICTURES AGAIN I'M GETTING MAD)

I just wanted to tell u all the way I see the Meet the Medic video and the way Heavy and Medic interact, headcanons n stuff:3

1-

Look at them. I like to Imagine that this trailer is the first time heavy and medic actually interact in a friendly way. I believe that Heavy and Medic didn't interact in any way besides professional stuff until this trailer, so Medic is trying to be cool and funny, trying to impress heavy; while heavy is just enjoying the moment, enjoying himself and making a new friend (And after, a new husband).

(The way medic uses his body(hands) to express himself makes him look so friendly and silly, and the way his hands are animated (the way he holds heavy's heart) IS SO DETAILED???)

2-

first, look at this part. The way medic looks at heavy, with shinning eyes, a smirk, one of his eyebrows being lifted up. He just wants to impress heavy (in my opinion), he wants to look cool, the cool doktor dude, and heavy, of course, agrees with that.

Heavy is happy to be there, to listen to medic. He really likes him, indeed.

They are having quite a nice moment, but then!...

They get interrumpted!. Medic was way too focused on being cool and friendly, and of course, on heavy; While heavy was focused on his new (boy)friend. Medic is now distracted and can't be the cool dude!! (Archimedes you're embarrassing him!)

3-

Medic looks really pissed, like how a kid would be pissed on his mom walking in while they're playing in the room with a friend they invited over XD. He even look a lil frustrated because his lil child interrumpted his (date) meeting.

(I'm so sad there isn't a good frame where medic n heavy are angry at archimedes, but anyway.) I love this so much. The way they look so pissed because archimedes interrupted them xD ; Heavy is more like, annoyed, than angry or pissed, but anyway.

4-

I absolutely love how OFFENDED heavy looks when Medic calls his insides filthy; and how 😨 Medic looks.

I feel like in medic's mind, he just fucked up; he insulted his (crush) NEW FRIEND?! He can't believe he just said THAT?!, after all, heavy's insides are beautiful and clean! 🙄

5-

Medic now is just INSANE, but EXCITED!. He enjoys this moment... He just let his real personality put. Heavy looks concerned and confused, but he is clearly not judging. It is just new for him and he's learning about medic.

(WHY YOUR LEGS SPREAD OPEN LIKE THAT GIRL CALM DOWN) medic is enjoying himself a lot here, he almost looks like he has completely forgotten heavy's presence (me when I'm talking about my hyperfixations suddenly forgetting about people's right to speak lmaooo); in the other hand, heavy looks kinda... Uncomfortable, but even so, he's trying to play along, laughing (even if it's awkwardly).

Btw, THE WAY medic's hands (specifically his fingers) are animated it's SO COOL!! He's holding everything so ~ peacfully ~ I LOVE IT.

6-

Not much to add here! I just love heavy's " :< ?" Teehee

Just look at his expression and the moment. The way medic is smirking with his eyebrow up; while he has the blood of his (LOVER) new friend all over him... In my opinion, this part is when Medic accidentally reveals his actual personality, how crazy he is (for heavy). If I was heavy I would've DIED. (Literally).

And that's it for now! I'll reblog this adding some bonuses of my 100% professional analysis teehee. I'm so obsessed over this tbh, imma redraw some of these!

[the-laughing-lunatic]

I just have a simple request if you don't mind me asking. Can you do Heavy x Medic with a child reader (Their child, adopted or not, Medic does weird stuff) who is very sweet but also very strong like Heavy?

Basic storyline: One day their kid was in the forest and found a baby bear who was hurt so they tried to take care of the baby bear but Mama bear was closed so the kid tried to defend themselves and make sure they didn't hurt the mama bear to fix the baby bear like they've seen Medic do on people.

(Ofc! I kinda made this really long (wordcount: 1264), you can tell I'm not that great w/ oneshots :/ Thx for requesting!)

HeavyMedic & sweet child! reader

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

It was late at night. Far too late to be out in the forest at the young age of seven, but here you were, trailing behind your two dads as Medic rambled about his ideas for experiments once he found the herb that had the three of you out in the first place. Heavy and Medic didn’t want to leave you alone at the base so they wrapped you in your big fluffy coat and brought you along. You shivered. “P- papa?”

“Little Belka, is cold, yes, but your papas need to focus now. Can you stay quiet for little while?” Heavy responded.

“Okay…” You wanted to be good for them, so you kept your mouth shut and clutched your teddy bear close to your chest. 

Out of nowhere an owl swooped down and snatched your teddy bear out of your hands. You couldn’t just let it get away with that! But your papa said not to talk, and you didn’t want to distract them from their important grown-up work. 

You took a deep breath and ran after it, the brush scratching up your arms as you followed the owl. You ran till your legs were tired and the bird was gone from your vision. Only then did you get the sinking realization that you were lost, cold, and alone. 

You sat on a tree stump, curled into a ball and cried.

ੈ♡˳

Medic and Heavy kept trekking through the forest. Medic smiled softly at a sleeping dove he saw in a tree. “Aw, taube, it’s you.” No response. “Taube?”

Medic turned around to see you were gone. “Belka? If this is joke, it is not funny. Come out now belka.” Yet again, no response. 

“Oh god, we’ve lost them.” Medic said, panicked. “Misha, what do we do? Oh god, how long have they been gone? They could be dead by now, what if they’re dead? I mean, are they even respawn compatible? We both are, and if the DNA processing worked how it should then they should be too. But I mean, no one else has ever done this so we don’t know if it works. Our taube could be eaten by wolves already I mean—”

Heavy placed his hands on Medic’s shoulders. “Ludwig. Calm. We will find them, it will be okay. 

Medic leaned into the touch, holding Heavy close. “I just don’t want to lose our baby…”

“We won't, I promise, our belka and will be safe and sound.” 

ੈ♡˳

After a solid ten minutes of crying, you sniffled and wiped your tears. And then you heard a noise. At first you thought it was one of your papas, but it was more of a whine.

You stood up and walked towards the sound. There, laying behind a bush was a small bear cub, curled up and whining. “Oh, hey there little guy, what’s wrong?” It keened back, eyes wide. “I’m not gonna hurt you, I just want to help.”

Hesitantly, the cub rolled over to reveal a thorn stuck in its paw, the area around it swollen and red. It looked similar to bullet wounds you had seen before, so you grabbed a pair of tweezers from the first-aid kit you kept with you. 

As you pulled the thorn out carefully you felt a hot breath on your neck. You turned to see another bear, much bigger than the one you just helped, and its eyes were on you. It growled.

ੈ♡˳

“Taube?” 

“Belka?”

It had been who knows how long since Medic and Heavy learned of your disappearance, and they had been calling out for you for most of that time. 

Medic’s eyes caught a familiar piece of fabric in one of the lower branches of a nearby tree. He stepped closer, reaching up to grab your teddy bear coated in dirt and stuffing open in multiple slashes. “Misha…gott…”

“It will be okay Ludwig, our belka is strong,” Heavy said. He wasn’t sure if he was saying that for Medic or himself at that point. He gently took the teddy from Medic, holding it in his hand. So small, it looked much bigger when you were holding it. You were still so young, it’d be to soon. Heavy gave it a hug and put it in his bag. They had to find you.

ੈ♡˳

You paled at the large bear towering over you. You knew you could try to fight back, but you didn’t want to. You settled for throwing a pebble at it. “Please leave, I don't want to hurt you.”

That didn’t seem to stop the bear, it stepped closer yet again. You gently tried to push it away. It didn’t work.

You whimpered and curled into a ball and closed your eyes as tight as you could, preparing for a bite or slash or any action that you very much didn’t want to feel. But…nothing happened. 

You felt the bear lick your hair and you felt yourself giggle slightly. It seemed because of the fuzzy coat he bear saw you as one of her own. It was comforting to be held close instead of feeling cold and alone just for a moment. You felt your eyelids droop and leaned into her. 

ੈ♡˳

It had been hours. It was completely dark now, and both Medic and Heavy were completely exhausted. Heavy sighed and leaned against a tree. “Ludwig, it’s late, we might have to consider heading back…”

“What? Are you crazy? We need to find them, we can’t just leave.” 

“You are tired, you need sleep,” Heavy said, tracing the doctor’s eyebags with his hand. 

“Misha, I have gotten far less sleep for far less important reasons, I will be fine,” he said brushing away Heavy’s hand. “If you need rest you may head back to the base.”

“No, I will stay.” And so the two continued, scanning the beam of their flashlight through the forest, the long shadows of the trees stretching out before them in their search. Until the light caught on two bright, almost glowing, orbs. 

They stepped closer, seeing a large bear cuddling her cub…and their child! The two both let out an audible sigh of relief, Heavy stepping forwards to take their sleeping kid. She growled, pulling you closer.

Heavy kneeled down to eye level of the bear. “Thank you for keeping my belka safe, but this is my child. Please.”

The bear looked for a second before giving a small nod, loosen its grip on you so Heavy can take you in his arms. Heavy gave a nod of respect before walking back to Medic. 

You stirred at the sudden movement. “H- hm?” Your eyes opened, a smile appeared . “Papa!”

“You’re awake!” Medic exclaimed happily, reaching to Heavy’s bag to give you your teddy back. “It might need a wash and some stitching, but it’ll be okay. …we’re so sorry for losing you, taube.”

“It’s okay, I made a friend! Could I see them again?” you said, clutching your teddy to yourself as you were carried back to the best.

Medic laughed. “Ha! No, you’re never going outside again, we were scared to death.”

“What?!”

“Now, belka, he doesn’t mean never, he’s just exaggerating. You can go outside once you’re 18.” 

“Come on!”

ੈ♡˳

Later that night, your teddy lay all stitched up on the night stand, moonlight spilling through the window as you laid between your two dads in bed. Having one warm body to cuddle you was great, but all wrapped in your loving papas arms you had to admit two was better.

[triptychofvoids]

Hey, sorry if this was asked before, I was unable to find clarification by just browsing the posts you tagged with Heavy, or looking the word up (great search system, Tumblr, thank you). Could you elaborate on your opinions about Heavy? And, by extension, HeavyMedic, since it's clearly only really a platonic thing in your work.

Which isn't a complaint, to be clear, your work is honestly rather refreshing, considering how often Those Two are just "the couple" in so many fanworks.

i like heavy, we are good friends and im rather fond of him! in addition to being a a valued asset on the battlefield and a good test subject, hes a quite an agreeable and interesting person as well!

i just dont feel anything more than platonic towards him, and i fail to see why this is such a problem! i understand heavymedic is rather popular and it seems some people care about shipping characters more than anything else when it comes to fan interactions. originally when i first saw it i had no problem with it, and even found some of it amusing or endearing in some cases. but over time, well. it stops being endearing very quickly, especially when you can never get a break from it. its a shame too, because heavy is quite fun to draw and id love to draw more interactions between us, but at this point i tend to avoid drawing him or even talking about him altogether because some people sadly do not know how to behave

[some-pers0n]

hi hey just wanna let u know that i (this anon in particular) would always want to listen to your thoughts about The Thing youre excited about regardless of the reason or my knowledge or the time-space continuum!

YOU! Ohhh anon you poor soul. I'm terribly sorry. I have been holding onto this ask for a while, at least until the next time I felt as Energized about Them again. Shaking. Twitching. I don't quite know how to explain it. I can only take potshots at attempting to rationalize my thoughts behind them. With that said, here's more rambling about Engiemedic, the only thing I seem to care about

I've rambled about Engiemedic a fair amount of times before, either jokingly with goofy remarks about them or writing a giantass fic about them. They scratch a certain part of my brain that is difficult to really describe and pin-down.

Like I've never really "shipped" anybody before them. Did I like ships? Yeah sure of course. I've always liked considering relationships and thinking about how they intersect and are written. It's probably definitely the aroace bit of me talking, but I only really get involved in ships when there's really some substance to them.

It makes Engiemedic this weird fucked up anomaly to me then because what the hell do you mean that this decently popular non-canon pairing that's had all of like 30 seconds of shared screentime and maybe seven panels where they're in the same room at max has become so engrossing and fascinating to me. It's not like the usual ships where this happens to people; the ones with lengthy tragic tales tied to them or spend so much time with one another. It's just two silly guys

It just...perplexes me. It's odd. I can't describe what about it really draws me in, despite the fact I've written so much. I can at least try and figure out what it is though

I think the thing that made me first interested was simply the dynamic and jokes to be made. They are exceptionally silly, wherein I can fully believe them sticking together and doing weird experiments for hours upon hours. It's hard not to imagine them getting excited over whatever project they've been throwing themselves at. It's fun

Because ultimately both Engie and Medic are both unethical murderous science people, Medic obviously while Engie is a tiny bit more subtle. Their dynamic is interesting in that regard 'cause, when paired together, now you've got two weirdo freaky smart people tossing back ideas and before you know it now they're trying to create some sort of nuclear-powered contraption that explodes bones

It calls out to me in a way that other ships don't, especially Heavymedic. No shade to Heavymedic shippers out there, I think it's still a fun ship, but I don't find it as compelling with their dynamic. Heavy is a reasonable and level-headed guy. Yeah he kills people and laughs about their misery and whatever, but he's more stable than most other mercs. If Medic was to say "I want to self-isolate for days on end while I work to create the bubonic plague 2.0" Heavy would have concerns and try to stop him from doing it because What the Hell

Engie, however, would endorse it. I think Engie and Medic are very similar in that regard. They're dedicated to their crafts and understand the nuance and skill that it takes to partake in it. Engie obviously still has qualms and is there in case Medic clearly ain't right, but he's more likely to get caught up in whatever experiment that Medic is trying to do

Which brings me to my next point: the way they influence each other. When together, I think they are at their best and worst (morally at least). It's like that trope with two smart people coming together and being dumbasses, but instead it's with them making weird creations and doing odd experiments that ultimately do not benefit anyone. They simply do it for fun

On a more personal level, I think Medic draws out the parts of Engie where he tries to hide and represses. Headcanons, obviously, but I think Medic taps into Engie's more sinister nature as a maniac with a god complex and a hankering to kill and really draws it out. It's infectious and hard not to try and match his energy. Medic makes Engie want to get more creative with his projects and drives him to be more experimental and, of course, murderous

Likewise and, again, mainly headcanons, I think Engie helps Medic tap into a slightly more "human" side. I think Medic generally struggles with caring about other people, discarding them in favour of working on his own projects and being by himself. Engie is one of the first people he's encountered that not only likes him and enjoys his company, but is just as wacky and weird as he is. Engie is more charismatic and outgoing and, while still not too terribly great with the whole emotions thing, helps Medic out in case he's Not Doing Good

Their personalities intertwine so much they make me ever so slightly ill. They don't seem alike really at first glance. Medic is over the top, eccentric, and generally a giggly mad scientist. Clear to see the archetype he's based on. Yet, when you look past Engie's charming little quips about Texas, he's very much alike Medic. He has a god complex, is highly intelligent, morally bankrupt, etc and etc. He's just as eccentric and wacky as the doc is, but is only slightly better at keeping it under wraps

I just think they're really entertaining when put together honestly. Sure yeah I love me my angsty and fluffy stuff with them, but I think they're simply great when just working on some project and talking to each other. Their personalities bounce off of one another exceptionally well and it's hard for them not to get so caught up in their work that Oh No it's been Four Days and they haven't left the workshop/laboratory

Ultimately, yeah. I think they care about each other a lot that way. Their work is...intimate in a way. They're lab partners. They spend all of this time together, defying God's will with whatever unholy machination they've crafted, they got to have some sort of bond

What makes me happy is that I think a lot of people really like the concept of Engiemedic in any form. Platonic, romantic, whatever. I personally go for QPR stuff (something about their love being undefinable by normal standards blah blah), but I think it's a neat observation that makes me like it more. It's hard to deny that they're really fun together

Speaking of their connections, let's talk about their roles in the actual game. Y'all heard of the Heavymedic duo, with Heavy running around with a Medic pocketing him the entire time, but have you ever considered the Engiemedic duo?? Engie and Medic are the BACKBONES of this game honestly. All it takes is one Engineer or Medic on a team to shift the balance entirely. Everyone wants a good Engie and Medic, but it's a hard role to fill and nobody really wants it. However, they're needed. They're necessary. They're the main support roles of the game than, say, Sniper or Spy ever are. They're the underappreciated, yet incredibly vital parts of the team.

Honestly the Engiemedic duo is far more prevalent and makes far more sense than the Heavymedic duo, because tbh you can say that Medic is closely connected to any class. Soldiermedic duo where Solly just spams rockets and wipes out the entire team. Demomedic duo where Demo just spams pipes and annihilates every building. What makes the Heavymedic duo any special? God I'm sorry for being a little Heavymedic hater, I promise I think the ship is alright, but idk. I like Engiemedic a lot

Anywho, I think Engiemedic is extremely fun to write about as well as just generally experience. There's so much you can apply to them. It's hard to think of anything they can't do, really. They're great with humor, what with shoving them into a room with some cadaver and letting them have at it. They're great with angst because, with headcanons, they can be really heavily fucked up people trying to make things work. They're great with fluff because they're so silly and it's easy to think of them doing cute things with one another. The list goes on!

They're...special to me. They're certainly something. I could go into all sorts of other things too (more esoteric and metaphoric I'm talking), but eh who cares. I don't like delving too much into headcanons and my own weird readings with these more generalized rambles. I just think they're silly :]

[mail-me-a-snail]

Hi I’ve been getting slightly obsessed with true blu and I’ve been thinking about heavy medic too

I like to think that RED Medic loves RED Heavy in the same a car guy loves a car he’s taken apart and put back together again. I don’t think either Medic really feels attraction normally, and I think REDic has only come to love Heavy like this because he can open the Heavy up and trace every inch of his anatomy and see himself in it. and I think Heavy sees this and is like. “Ah, I am his Sasha.” And he gets it. It’s not a NORMAL relationship. But it’s no less genuine.

In contrast, their BLU counterparts? They have none of that. There is nothing that Medic can call his own- while the RED Heavy is a walking talking monument to RED Medic’s genius, anything the BLU Medic can do is just… derivative. Someone else's body, made by someone else's work, worked on using someone else’s skills. Medics seem motivated by new and novel mad science experiments, and can anything the BLU Medic does be called original? Is it all plagiarism?

I also like to think that BLU Heavy has gone back to reading a lot more compared to RED Heavy. Leaning on that Russian literature degree they have. Lots of philosophy out there to think about your existential crisis with

im convinced youve somehow snuck a peek at my outline document without my knowledge because we share a lot of the same thoughts re: red heavymedic like damn!!!!!!!

personally i agree that blu medic has that same maniacal drive as red medic to experiment to his heart's content, but he is hesitant on performing said experiments on his teammates. given that he's more of a doctor than red is, in that he manages the team's mental wellbeing and reports back to engie about them monthly, so he's not enthusiastic about doing things that would hurt them.

besides, blu medic would rather experiment on himself than them. some parts of him want to ignore that he's a clone; others want very badly to work the cloning process backwards, to trace the steps of whoever made him and find out how they made him. he doesn't intend to start cloning people—he could never bring himself to wish that upon anyone—but he wonders if the process could be perfected. could a clone some day retain all of its memories in picture perfect quality? could it harbor the same feelings for a person as its counterpart? much to think about.

blu heavy is more than open to being experimented on, he finds medic fascinating and is the only one who insists on being his test subject when it comes to researching their cloned bodies. funny enough we do share the same headcanon that he reads more than his red counterpart !!!

while i also agree that anything medic would do to heavy would just be plagiarism, i also think their relationship is complicated by the fact that their red originals are so so in love with each other...while neither of them feel the same way, don't even have that little inkling of affection for one another. sure, they work together very well and they enjoy each other's company...but isn't it weird to look at this person that you're supposed to love, on the other side of things, and you just feel nothing?

How did they find out ?

You weren't entirely sure how Heavy found out, but considering how perceptive he could be, it was no surprise. Maybe he overheard you babbling to yourself? Or he saw the way your eyes lit up over childish things?

Regardless, he knew, but he never approached you about it

However, you didn't miss the way he would check in on you more often. He'd ask if you had eaten, if you'd slept alright - things he didn't normally do.

Eventually, you confronted him, told him about your regression. He listened intently, so much so that you almost thought he was judging you. But at the end of your explanation, he gave you a gentle smile and told you he was glad that you trust him.

Next, for Medic, you didn't exactly plan to tell him. You figured you shouldn't talk to Medic so much when regressed, as sometime he tends to be curious to a fault. You worried he might just sit you down and ask questions you didn't want to answer.

But one day you ended up having no choice to talk with him. It was after you got a scrape on your knee, when Scout accidentally played a little too rough with you. He was really sorry, rushing you to the medbay even though it was just a little scrape.

You were a little stressed on the way there, as you realised you'd probably have to pretend to be big.

When you got there, you tried your hardest to hide that you were regressed, but Medic saw right through it. He looked over at Scout, who seemed way too worried for a little scrape.

"Schatz, you are younger now, are you not?"

You were a little taken aback, but you nodded sheepishly

"I see. Well, don't worry about that, your little scrape will be gone in no time."

He was very sweet as he tended to your injury, telling you how everything will be okay and praising you for how you handled it.

You figured that maybe Heavy told him. Those two seemed very close after all, so much so that there was a rumour they were dating!

After this, you weren't nervous to talk to him when regressed, and he'd do his best to entertain your silly conversation starters.

But after his doves started taking a liking to you?

You were really starting to grow on him.

HeavyMedic parents moment?

One night, you were having dinner with the other mercs. Most of them had finished eating or just took their food to eat somewhere else, leaving you at a table alone with Heavy and Medic.

You had something to say, but chose to wait for Medic to finish what he was talking about.

He was talking.

And talking.

And talking.

When eventually, you decided to speak up and get his attention.

"Mom?"

They both turned to you, confused.

You paused, realising what you said, before scrambling to correct yourself.

"MEDIC. Medic. I meant Medic-"

Fortunately, Medic and Heavy seemed to find it rather amusing.

"Yes, mein Täubchen?"

Heavy didnt say anything, but he was smiling.

Parent moment part 2

Another day you were regressed and fumbling as you tried to open a bottle, but it just wouldn't budge !

Medic approached you and gave you a warm smile. "Let Mama help you with that."

You stared at him confused and surprised, but in a good way.

He sorta just held his chin in thought, going, "hmm, ok actually, I'd prefer to be Papa. Wait but- Heavy is already Papa."

You were so confused. "What do you mean, Medic?"

He ended up just coming clean and telling you that he and Heavy had considered a child in the distant future. So if you were ok with it, they'd be happy to take care of you when you were little.

He seemed a little nervous, he was scared you'd say no and he'd just made a fool of himself.

But you were so happy and hugged him !! You told him that, yes, you'd be okay with it !

He was so excited and had to stop himself from immediately running off to tell Heavy.

Anyways Heavy and Medic are your dads now. Later, Medic said that Heavy could be Papa, and he could be Paps!

Sleepytime

One night, you felt all restless. Knowing you needed company, you pondered.

Paps was usually always up late, but it felt like he always had some work or another to do. In that case, he might not be free to give you cuddles.

But Papa ? Maybe he could give you big warm bear cuddles to put you to sleep.

So your little feet took you as far as they would carry you, all the way into Heavy's room. You knocked, not waiting for a response before walking in.

"Papa," you mumbled.

You saw a big Heavy-shaped lump under the covers, and a smaller one beside him.

"Paps?"

You watched as the bigger lump shifted as Heavy sat up a little. He rubbed his eyes as he looked at you, his voice low with grogginess. "You cannot sleep?"

"Mhm." You twiddled your thumbs nervously, realising you forgot to bring your plushie.

Heavy laid back down and shifted backwards a little, so there was space between him and Medic. He patted the empty space. "Come."

Relieved, you eagerly joined them, making yourself comfortable in the warm space between them. You felt yourself sinking into the bed, having your Papa and Paps close helping you feel safe.

From behind you, Medic's warm arm gave you a big hug, as if you were a little sized plushy!

Heavy let you hold onto his hand, as if to make up for the stuffie you left in your room.

Uppies

Sometimes Medic just scoops you up out of nowhere because you're too adorable!

When he carries you, he likes to pick you up with one arm supporting your back, and the other supporting your bum. Like his arms are a chair!

Sometimes his doves come and land on your head and on his shoulders, and now there's a little dove party.

Heavy on the other hand likes to hold you like a baby, with his upper arm supporting the back of your head. He'll rock you a little and its surprisingly calming.

He's perceptive of how you feel, so when you're upset he might just pick you up without a word and start rocking you. He might even sing little songs for you while he's at it.

Both of them are quite strong and could carry you just fine !

Playing Doctor

You were with Medic in the medbay as he worked away at paperwork. The room was silent apart from the sound of pen on paper, as well as the ticking of the clock and occasional noises of his doves.

You peeked over at him. "Paps?"

He continued to scribble away, only sparing you a glance. "Not now, mein Täubchen, Paps is busy."

You pouted, marching away to search for things to do. You watched as Archimedes flew by over your head, before landing on a coathanger. His feet were perched comfortably on Medic's lab coat, almost like he was trying to tell you an idea.

You scurried over to Archimedes, getting on your tippy toes to take the coat off the hanger and putting it on with a giggle. Archimedes landed on your shoulder and cooed at you.

Medic's voice chimed in again from his table, his eyes still locked on the papers. "Ya, Archimedes, keep my little one company until I'm done, ok?"

Archimedes replied by flying over to a drawer on the other side of the room and perching on the handle. Curiously, you followed him and opened it, and you were met with a pouch. With a zip, you opened it up and saw a stethoscope. You glanced over at Medic, figuring he wouldn't mind, before putting the buds in your ear and holding up the diaphragm to Archimedes. You could clearly hear the ba-thump, ba-thump, ba-thump of his little bird heart, causing you to stare in awe and amazement.

You eventually put the stethoscope back into the bag and closed the drawer, walking around for something else to do. You turned the corner, and your eyes found the medigun.

You ran back to look at Medic. "Paps, can-"

"Ya, alright." He hadn't looked up still.

But you figured, he said yes! You ran back to the medigun, Archimedes following curiously. You carefully tried picking up the medigun, but it was much much heavier than it looked! Medic made it look so light! You wrapped your arms around it, barely managing to lift it up, before tumbling backward !

But your back was not met with cold, hard floor, but it was met with a big and warm arm. The hand took the medigun from you, and without even looking at the person's face, could recognize who it was immediately. "Papa!"

Heavy put the medigun back where it belonged, putting a hand on your back. You realised you must've been very focused to not notice him come in. "Are you ok?"

You nodded. "Mhm."

"Good. Be more careful next time."

Medic's voice called from around the corner. "Heavy?"

"Yes, Doctor." Heavy turned to you, smiling. "You look good in Doctor's coat."

You beamed, puffing your chest out proudly.

"Come, we show Medic."

You both walked over to him, finally managing to get his attention as he gave you a heartfelt grin at the sight of you wearing his coat.

It was clearly way too big for you. He glanced at his papers again, letting out a sigh as he couldn't help himself from getting up so he could pick you up and spin you.

Goodnight Kisses

You were clinging to Heavy like a koala as he tried to put you into bed. "M wanna stay with Papa!"

"Papa is busy," Heavy stated simply, giving you a kiss on the forehead, "you must rest now."

You shook your head and whined, still clinging as he tried to move your arms off of him. "Nooo!"

You heard Medic sigh from behind him, followed by his familiar voice. "Alright, Täubchen-" he moved past Heavy to lay down on the bed with you, "Paps will stay with you."

A huge grin spread on your face as you held onto to him instead. "Paps!"

Heavy chimed in, saying, "Is not good to spoil."

You felt Medic shaking his head. "Ya, I know. But look at the way our little one is clinging!" He stroked your hair lightly. "I don't know, I just.."

Heavy paused, then let out a chuckle. "Maybe a little spoiling is okay." He pulled the covers over you and laid down beside you, with Medic on your other side. He leaned down and gave you a gentle kiss on the forehead, holding onto you reassuringly.

Medic leaned down and kissed your temple, smiling a little when your hair tickled his face. You heard another smooch, knowing Medic must've kissed Heavy!

You bundled up happily under the covers. "Issa smooch party."

Medic let out a laugh. "Yes, I guess it is."

You turned your head to look between the two of them. "Papa and Paps gonna stay till I sleeps?"

"We will," Heavy replied softly.

"Of course, mein Täubchen."

The blankets were especially cozy as you slowly dozed off that night.

[littleguypumpkinsheep]

Hey what if HeavyMedic adopted Scout. I wrote about that

“3, 2… 1.” 

The camera flashed, whirring quietly while it spat the film out. The photographer took it from the dispenser and shook it a little, showing the family that had now crowded around them the just-starting results of the photo. They couldn’t see it clearly yet, but this didn’t dim their excitement. 

“The photo will be clear in an hour,” they said, handing it over. 

“Gut, danke schön!” 

“Heavy also thanks you.” 

The photographer gave a formal bow and packed their equipment, bidding their slightly strange customers farewell. It didn’t much matter to them, though, because they paid good money.

Once alone the new family yelled and cheered ecstatically, crushing themselves into a massive and deliriously overjoyed bear hug with Scout in the middle of it. They couldn’t see each other through the laughter, or tears, but they clung to each other. This little family, this bond formed from chance and the unyielding determination to make it, was finally official. The paperwork had been signed, approved, and a photo was taken to permanently seal this moment in history. 

Scout was their son.

Heavy had a sudden surge of overwhelming affection, hoisting up both his husband and son and spinning them around, an act done out of unbridled love. It only stopped short when Scout choked out that he was crushing him to death, but it was taken in good humor. Medic fixed Scout’s clothes, and then let him run off to tell the others about his adoption. He was better than all of them now; he had two freakin’ dads! That was more than he’d had in his entire life and probably more than they had in theirs. And he had a mom. He was truly the superior man. All he was missing now was a girlfriend, but, y’know, that could wait. 

The other two mercs talked quietly amongst themselves, discussing their decision and the excitement and nervousness about being parents. Medic reassured Heavy that there would be no need to buy bottles because Scout was already an adult, which was a hard sentence to say without laughing. Heavy had been so anxious he’d simply forgotten, and mildly stewed in embarrassment for a moment. All was quickly forgotten when his husband kissed him, something sweet and simple, and he mellowed out again. He leaned down to return the favor when they were both interrupted. 

“I see you’ve adopted my son.” 

They turned, mild surprise turning into annoyance and disinterest. A tense beat of silence passed as Spy paused to light a cigarette. 

“You’ve known about it,” Medic said stiffly, and the Frenchman held up his hands. 

“Of course. I’m not looking to start a fight. I only wish to ask of you one thing,” he said. The other mercenaries stared him down, expressions and stances hostile. Spy was very aware of this, and submitted to it. 

“Please …Be better men than I was. Take care of him.” 

Gravel crunched under Heavy’s feet as he took a few steps forward, Medic trailing behind him with a hand on his shoulder. 

“You were not “man”. You abandoned our son like coward, and you are telling us to be men?” 

“Yes. We are offering him something you were never capable of giving. Even now, you can’t get past your pride enough to tell him you were an idiot. It’s quite insulting.” 

Spy did not say anything for a long while. Emotions he had worked so hard to bottle up were resurfacing like shattered glass in his stomach. Shame. Anger. 

Regret.

“Es tut mir leid, Ludwig.”

“Don’t. This discussion is over. I feel it fair to say to leave our family alone. We are coworkers at most and this matter does not concern you. If you have as much wit as you say you do, you will understand this.” 

Heavy only had one other thing to say. Spy did not deserve his wasted breath.

“Do not apologize to Doctor. Apologize to Scout.” 

And with that, there was nothing more any of them had to say. 

Spy had lost his wife, his son, Medic, and Heavy. They were never “friends”, not really, but it felt like something irreversible had been chipped off, sunk to the bottom like a chunk of ice in the ocean. Something already fragile. Something already hard to hold on to, easy to slip up, to ruin. And he had done all of it. There was nothing left of his and Scout’s relationship to repair. One had never been fostered in the first place. It was all just unthinking selfishness, the need to preserve his dignity over letting his son heal. He thought about it. About what it must feel like. To know you had a dad, but not if he ever loved you. If he was there at all. 

Scout would never know.

HEADCANONS FOR TEAM FORTRESS 2

CW: might contain spoilers! Please read with caution and if you haven't read the comics, I recommend you do so that the head canons make sense but you don't have to!

Hi! These are my head canons about our mercs! They are A LOT so be ready hehe. Now, I don't play the game bcuz one, poverty, two, don't have a PC, and three, the mobile version is not available for my phone (I'm sad bcuz of it 😔) , ok LETS GOOOO.

• HeavyMedic

Medic is the "talks a lot" to Heavy's "listens"

• this head canon has always been in my mind ever since I've started watching sfm on YouTube and reading the official comics is that because Medic likes to ramble about basically *anything* from his newest discovery to talking shit about their own teammates and Heavy listens. In one particular discussion that they both had is about Scout, mainly Medic complaining about the Bostonian, and he *accidentally* mentions his his similarity to Spy, ending it with "like father, like son". Which is how Heavy found out about Spy being scouts Father.

•endearment is very common but they WOULD NEVER, EVER, TILL THE DAY THAT THEY DIE use "babe". U feel like they are very class and shit and that really makes them shudder and shiver cuz they think it's for younger couples and they ain't young they in they 50s. What they would use is Darling, sweetheart, my love, and their favorite would be animals that remind them of each other. Medic would call Heavy "bear" and Heavy would call medic his "dove".

Helmet Party (Soldier x Engineer)

Basically their whole dynamic:

Engie "calm but still feral bf " x Soldier "not contained feral bf"

•Soldier is definitely such a softie when it comes to Engineer, like he gives the Texan special treatment and he doesn't even notice but the entire team knows of course. He isn't necessarily soft spoken, just kinda of chill and let's his guard down around engineer (he doesn't to it to anyone else even Demoman). ALSO! Engie is the "calm, reserved still insane, but regardless nice bf" and Soldier is the "loud, bossy, mentally unstable bf".

• Both of them have anger issues but the difference is, Engie can control his anger because he's very patient and understanding ( bless his soul) but Soldier can't. But just because Engie has lots of patience doesn't mean he doesn't get mad, I just know that Engie is the scariest to anger because he just stays silent and glares at everyone unlike soldier who won't hesitate to slash out, destroy things, etc.

•Engie is definitely more confident and more demanding in bed while Soldier is a bit timid. Idk why but I feel like soldier has this tendency to be scared to feel pleasure when it comes to sex and i wanted to link that with religious trauma, internalized homophobia, but despite that he still tries his very best to enjoy sexual intimacy (Engie WOULD NEVER let himself finish before Soldier does because he knows that he fins it hard to finish)

•Engineer's love language are definitely acts of service and Words of Affirmation while Soldier's would be physical touch. Like it wouldn't be unusual for Engie to build something for Soldier and he does it often but Soldier is still very grateful for every gift, and when they sleep together, Engie would just shower him with loving words like "I'm so glad you're mine" , "you're so adorable", "I love you" , etc. And Soldier would always be a blushing, flustered mess everytime. Soldier would be very physical with Engie like holding his hand, hugging him, and kissing him and other none sexual intimacy things. And it really surprised Engie at first because Soldier doesn't let anyone touch him (unless your super close with him like Demoman is). And when they have sex, Soldier really takes his time with Engie, kissing and adoring every part of his body to the point he's just worshipping Engie (not that Engie would complain lol) , and Engie would be really shy about showing his body because of scars and stuff like that and he isn't the most ripped and toned guy on the team so naturally, he'd be embarrassed to show his body but Soldier just constantly reminds him of how beautiful and lovely he is as a person.

•They are more reserved, like low-key and stuff but they don't and will deny their relationship if someone asks. I feel like they do it for the comfort of the other, like the team knows about their relationship but they aren't the type to flaunt it and really show PDA in front of the guys but it doesn't mean they don't share loving glances, hold hands when possible, cuddle on the couch, when the guys are there, just low-key stuff.

•They don't like it when other members of the team call them by their real names. I feel like this would apply to both of them, but Engineer would be more of the type to say that he doesn't mind it but he prefers it not to be used and if you call Soldier by his real name, run because he will gut you alive.

Can you tell I'm obsessed with Helmet Party? So, yeah! These are some but definitely not everything, it's just that I'm tired of typing shit lol (I'm lazy sorry). I'd like to hear your thoughts or own personal head canons about our mercs! Don't hesitate to comment cuz I love that😘

UPDATED HC: 07/18/23

•Pyro crochets. Idk. Like I just see him crocheting a dino or a unicorn for himself or to give to others.

•Heavy is English, literature, poetry, etc. smart while Medic is Mathematics, Science, etc. Smart.

•Medic LOVES being praised so heavy always praises him. From that series of sfm by HoovyTube (idk I could be wrong) about Medic and Spy not getting the recognition that they deserve and I feel like Heavy knows about Medic's craving for recognition so he praises him a LOT. Like "thank you doctor" "you are so smart doktor" etc.

UPDATE: 07/23/23

•Soldier is BEST at combat plans. Like okay, we all know that this man isn't the smartest right? But I can totally see him planning shit for upcoming battles, sometimes they are very absurd, and the other mercs are like worried cuz it might not work but in the end it all works out. Like all the time, which is why they let Soldier give these speeches before battle.

•Heavy is part of the people who taste soap in Cilantro. Like he is a man that'll eat whatever (edible) is given to him but as soon as he sees Cilantro on that stuff? Nah, he ain't eating it.

•Scout has dyslexia. This is more of canon tbh. He can read but he finds it difficult especially if he's reading it out loud.

•Engineer and Pyro have autism. Which is why engie is sometimes the only person who really gets Pyro and vice versa.

•Engineer, Medic, Spy, and Heavy are the Mercs that learned ASL for Pyro. They once found out that the man prefers to sign than try to talk when it comes out incoherent to them anyway.

•scout and sniper both know Morse code. It helped them expressing their love for each other even when the other mercenaries are there when they still kept it low-key. But what they didn't know is that Spy also knows Morse code , so evrytime Scout says "I love you" in Morse code, spy always let's out a disapproving groan or eye roll.

08/01/23

•Medic plays the violin, Engie plays the piano and guitar, what does Scout play? All three. I've got a feeling that bcuz he's the youngest he never got that much attention from his siblings (author is the youngest of five) and because he never got anyone to play with, he hangs out with a lot of people which is how he learned to play these instruments but he mostly plays guitar.

•these three having GOOD voices. Medic and Engie are expected but Scout? Nah, no one guessed. So it's really a surprise to the mercs when they find out he can sing.

•bidwell and miss Pauling are friends because they have one thing in common; overworked.

[pregnantsecondo]

This week's man for Mpreg Monday is Heavy TF2!!!

Heavy has a very supportive family! His sisters are so happy to have a new addition and his mother is happy that Heavy is happy.

He does not name his kid Sasha. That is a special name for his gun. However, he has a similar ideology to his child. No one messes with his child or he'll kill them, and he is very serious about that.

Not necessarily a heavymedic thing, but I do think the child is close to medic. Heavy and Medic are friends, and we've all established that Medic, at the very least, knows how to assist in giving birth.

Heavy really wants his child to be an artist. In his mind, if that child feels free enough and safe enough to pursue such a thing, then he's done a good job at raising and protecting the child.

Not a lot of people notice that Heavy is pregnant, it's a well kept secret for a very good reason (Heavy does not like the attention). So one day, he's just absent and then the next he has a little bundle of joy!

Heavy is one of those parents who is firmly against baby talk. He wants to speak to his child like a human, and he wants to communicate rationally. However, he is aware of the fact that his kid is, y'know, a kid. He balances everything really well.

[volno-pesh]

First. Demoman IS past his 30. "No demoman worth his sulfur EVER HAD AN EYE IN HIS HEAD past THIRTY". She belittles him again, "oh you're past his 30 and still have eye, you're not that good I tell you, be better". If you didn't notice, she always neen doing that, she usually belittling him when we saw her interacting with Demo. He is past his 30.

Second. God, don't talk about Engineer. Okay, yes, he's not the most "sane". But if you don't understand the COMPLEXITY OF THE MEANING of cutting your own hand to put RADIGAN'S invention/machine/creation, don't talk about it. He didn't did it "just because", it's really far away from "just because". It is a sane thing to do? No. But I'm sure he's mostly sane, just like Heavy, on the same level. God complex? Maybe. But it's impressive how you take only one impulsive voice line. And god, the goggles........ You are so wrong. Any model with his eyes are fan-made, non official. Actually, @/redmarqar (I appreciate their post about Engineer's eye color, they are a great artist and person) and many people in the tags told you that was just a fan model and we don't actually know how his eyes look. But as far as I've seen, you reply to every correction and comment but this one. ???? Okay????

Third. Spy,,,,,,,,, "not as professional, it takes him 7 seconds to pee on enemy base building",, I honestly don't see the connection. It's probably the fact the he "dared to do that" but like??? 1) That's a joke from VALVe; 2) What makes him unprofessional here? Peeing not with a knife and backstabbing someone in the process? As I said, that's a joke from VALVe, nothing here makes him unprofessional. Maybe you say "that's not polite, that's not pleasant thing to do" and like yes, the teams suppose to hate each other and he does desecrates their building by peeing on the wall. ,,,, What makes him unprofessional here? And yes, stinky mask is another joke from VALVe on Spy. I don't see anything unprofessional here. But it does proofs he's not that clean. Literally. Could give that jacket to Sniper in the end of #6, hehe.

Fourth. Soldier WAS a racist. Nothing tells he's not anymore. Although, I can say he's now acting a little softer, especially after Zhanna, yes. But nothing here proofs he's not racist anymore. Again, he WAS SURE USA is the greatest of them all, like a patriot and therefore belittling other countries to the fact where he couldn't believe such good colleagues are from another countries. He didn't go well on rest of Heavy's family and we never see them interacting again and I honestly doubt just that particular family can change his mindset. But okay, whatever makes twitter comfortable.

The rest is actually yea, probably it. Although it can be either same glasses, or Sniper just bought one that's alike. And Heavy's deconstruction as a character because of heavymedic ship,,,,,,,, yeah, some shit people do about them is honestly even scary. The way Pauling talks with Pyro is another comical relief for fans who portrait them in that dynamic.

Tf2 details that a lot of people get wrong:

Demoman is most likely under 30, making him either the third or second youngest out of the cast. I GET IT. YOU CAN ALL STOP TELLING ME HE'S "not actually under 30" IM TALKING ABOUT THIS COMIC ISSUE AND THE GRAVEL WARS. NOT THE ACTUAL FULL COMIC SERIES WHERE IT TAKES PLACE 5 YEARS AFTER.

Scout can drive. He even has that taunt where he drives that little scooter.

Snipers glasses were likely given to him by his dad.

Engineer is NOT the most """sane""" of the mercs, that actually goes to Heavy. He has a severe God complex (line: "I am a GOD!") And cut off his arm cuz why not. He also has green eyes, not blue.

Medic is terrible at naming things. I just think this has a lot of potential for jokes.

Pyro is completely aware they're setting stuff on fire, they just like wearing their mask. They also aren't a kid despite how Miss Pauling talks to them.

Spy isn't as professional as people think. He takes 7 seconds to piss on a wall, and Miss Pauling tells him to wash his mask since he never takes it off.

Soldier WAS "racist" (I really don't know how to describe the term here) until he met Zhanna.

Finally, Heavy. I don't even need to explain anything. His entire CHARACTER is always mischaracterized to be Medic's alpha boyfriend. He's arguably the most caring one out of the mercs.

[presidentbungus]

do u have any heavymedic headcanons

- thiiiiis post. this one right here by my bestie @welcome-to-ikea. this post I have helpfully linked at the beginning and I will link it one more time. that one. please like and reblog it. they are in love. thank you ikea

- I think even from the beginning the doves love love love love Heavy. like, one day he came into the infirmary for surgery and sat down and in like 10 seconds his lap was just filled with birds and, like, he didn’t care. just chillen. it was one of the things that convinced Medic he might be someone to trust, actually, and maybe even… befriend (perish at the thought!)

- Medic starts off super like emotionally closed off “TRUST NO ONE EVER” because I guess he feels like he’s supposed to be that way when he’s with people like this but Heavy gently prods him into realizing it’s a stupid idea pretty fast. I think once the dam breaks the flood comes QUICK. as SOON as Medic figures out he can be ultra vulnerable with no consequences he basically sets aside like 4 hours a day for the both of them where they can just sit down and Medic can cry about his many, many emotional problems, which are numerous.

- Heavy loves loves loves loves listening to him talk in general even if he’s completely incomprehensible a lot of the time. for some unimaginable reason he finds his voice kind of soothing, and generally just enjoys the energy he gives off all the time. he could sit in a room and hear Medic tell stories about his various disastrous escapades forever and, looking back on it, it’s a little weird it took him that long to realize how he felt huh

- Medic lIkes how calm Heavy is—just having him around clears his head And GOD knows he needs that. its nice to just have someone to rant to and stuff who’s, like, willing to listen, and not trapped on an operating table at risk of having all of their organs unconsensually removed by gravity

- I think Heavy makes the first move, romantically mainly because Medic just gets so deep in denial at some point that to wait for him to make a move would probably take several years and a shovel. one day Heavy drags him aside and has this whole romantic thing planned where he like says everything he likes about Medic and everything they do for each other and the deepness of their Bro Bond and everything and the entire time Medic’s just half-listening nodding along feeling like the most tangible fucking relief anyone’s ever felt like ever. like oh. I guess that’s what that was about. LOL

- they protect each other VERY strongly. obv Heavy’s main role in battle is to protect Medic and, like, he does his job, but if a Spy backstabs Heavy in front of him then ough. poor guy. that Spy is going to die VERY SOON and it will NOT be fun

- Medic looooooves Heavy’s body. all his muscle and fat and scars and stuff. Medic loves to sit in his lap and lay against him and hug him and stuff and just like feel him. there is nothing that delights him more than when like Heavy’s carrying something and purposefully flexes in front of him to show off (sometimes he full on dramatic faints which is a significant health risk but he seems to be having a really good time so nobodu considers it that much of a problem)

- if you don’t piss either of them off you’ll be fine. if you piss off one of them you automatically piss off the other one and you will probably be dead

- they are both married to engineer. this is my headcanon. one day heavy was like medic do you want to marry me and medic said hold on let me ask my husband. and his husband said yes. and they’re a throuple they sit in rocking chairs on the porch and do crosswords together over tea and talk about gardening or whatever
