Masked hero

I still don't understand who it is. And why did he wake up under Mateo’s bed, how did he even end up there? Why can he use Lunia's hourglass? He died as quickly as he appeared. Does anyone have theories or thoughts about this character?

Infernal Resurgence: A Symphony of Chaos in the Masked Zombie Apocalypse

Amidst the smoldering ruins of a once-thriving city, where the air is thick with despair and the ground stained with the remnants of civilization, a lone figure emerges. Veiled behind a haunting mask, this survivor navigates through the decaying landscape, where the undead roam freely and the echoes of a bygone era linger in the shadows.

As the survivor progresses, a surreal transformation occurs – the very essence of hell seems to seep into the surroundings. Skies ablaze with vivid colors, a surreal dance of skulls that appear to be both menacing and ethereal, and the distant echoes of a Medusa-like gorgona whose gaze could turn hope into stone. The air crackles with an impending sense of doom, and yet, there's an undeniable beauty in the chaos that unfolds.

In the survivor's hands, a massive fireball flickers, casting an eerie glow on the masked face. It becomes evident that this fireball is both a weapon and a symbol of defiance against the encroaching darkness. The mask, adorned with symbols of resilience, becomes a metaphor for the human spirit, unwavering even in the face of an apocalyptic nightmare.

This dystopian tale unfolds like a canvas, each stroke telling a story of survival, despair, and the relentless fight against an unimaginable fate. The interplay of elements – masks, zombies, hellfire, skulls, Medusa, and vivid colors – creates a visual symphony that captures the essence of a world teetering on the brink of oblivion.

Week 2 Recs: Feel-Good Hour

The Week 2 Fic Rec Friday theme was "Feel-Good Hour," or fluffy, heartwarming fics! Here are all the fluffiest fics recommended by the Yeehan community, organized by rating, then alphabetically by title.

General Audience

Blue Roses and Salted Caramel by AsheRhyder [11,135 words] Reccer comment: "Hanzo is the head of a post office and Cassidy is in need of his services."

Hanzo hated Valentine's Day and everything that went with it. This got exceptionally awkward for a man whose courier service saw business triple in the lead up to February 14th.

A series of 'special deliveries' between Mr. Jack Morrison and Mr. Gabriel Reyes drew his attention. Initially, it was because he wasn’t sure if it was the world's most polite form of hate mail or the world's most awkward flirting...

But then there was something about Mr. Reyes' son, Jesse, that kept him coming back...

From Another Room by acrxphxbia [3,822 words] Reccer comment: "I always come back to this because its just so freaking sweet I'll have diabetes"

Jesse and Hanzo have a lazy day together. They play some music. A birthday gift for my lovely wife, Tsol.

Keep You On My Side by maskedhero, radiantsaber [11,438 words] Reccer comment: "I don't know that it's necessarily gooey or fluffy, but I'm pretty sure this is the softest Yeehan I have in my bookmarks."

Hanzo Shimada has loved Jesse McCree for years.

And for years, he remained silent.

A Night of Firsts by KittenzCaboodle [13,752 words] Reccer comment: "I'd like to also rec one of my fics, if it's alright, which is just pure G-rated humor and fluff"

Out of every Overwatch and Blackwatch team member Cole had worked with, Hanzo Shimada was certainly not the worst.  He had met ruder folks, meaner folks, and Hanzo was… well, Hanzo was just kinda… there, sitting in the corner, rarely making a sound, like a stray dog that you had let in from the rain that wasn’t sure if a meal or a boot was coming its way next.

Hanzo seemed perfectly content to stay out of the spotlight, pulling more than his weight on missions, assisting around the base when asked, but never going out of his way to do or say much outside of anything related to work.  There were only a few souls he even felt comfortable being near - Genji, Ana, and Cole - but being near was a far cry from being relaxed around. - Hanzo agreeing so easily to accompany Cole on a mission in Japan was a surprise, not that Cole minded getting a chance to work more closely with the handsome fella.

It would be one of a few surprises they encountered that night, as they had a night of firsts.

Teen and Up

Dreamlike by mataglap [4,063 words] Reccer comment: "Another one where they meet in dreams and it becomes reality ♡⁠˖⁠꒰⁠ᵕ⁠༚⁠ᵕ⁠⑅⁠꒱"

Hanzo is used to bad dreams, and he never would have expected that a good dream would end up haunting him the most.

A Good Time is Free by cocoabunny [2,385 words] Reccer comment: "this fic is so much fun and has the distinction of being perhaps the only fic tagged both 'assassination attempt' and 'fluff' I've ever read"

McCree and Hanzo are sent on an undercover mission to assassinate a bad, bad dude—except they mess up and get trapped in a mall overnight. How did two professional ex-assassins manage to get locked in, and how are they going to cope without murdering (or passionately kissing) each other?!

Just Once by Vimeddiee [2,534 words] Reccer comment: "sugar sweet fluff"

Cole dreams that he’s kissing someone.

Respite by CommonNonsense [5,732 words] Reccer comment: "This one is a delightful read. I enjoy how the characters are written!"

He freezes for a moment before he finally hazards a look down. Hanzo has apparently nodded off, lulled into a doze by a sake with a frankly alarming alcohol percentage, and managed to tip into McCree before he could fall over.

Honestly? Not the first time someone’s done this to him.

It is the first time that McCree hesitates, though.

you give me the most gorgeous sleep by JeziBelle [1,537 words] Reccer comment: "I've only finished one yeehan fic ever and it's cotton candy (and also contains my favorite weird Southern turn of phrase I've ever written). In hopes that attention will make me write again, I humbly submit it here."

It's not that Jesse's particularly fond of waking up alone, but he's more than happy to settle for however much Hanzo is willing to give him.

Which makes for more than a little confusion the morning he doesn't.

Mature

four days by feyhound [23,869 words] Reccer comment: "Now, if you're into pretend/fake relationship fluff like I am, PLEASE read this. It's an old favorite and I come back to it every time I need a serotonin boost."

“I have an embarrassin’ favor to ask of you,” Cole says.

Hanzo stares at him expectantly, a single brow arched. “And what is that?” he asks.

“Y’see, my family might currently be under the impression that I’m bringin’ home a date for a few days next week. And, the thing is, I don’t really have one. So, I’m currently S-O-L and would really, really appreciate it if you came home with me for a few days and, uh. Pretended. To be my boyfriend.”

He stares down at his plate and jabs a fry into the enormous puddle of ketchup gathered in the center of it. If only the fry could be his hypothetical four-day boyfriend, he thinks; it would save him an enormous amount of embarrassment. It would be tastier, too.

[ Or - Cassidy desperately needs a fake date to bring home to his family, and Hanzo never does anything half-assed. ]

Like that guy in the Odyssey by vaguely_concerned [5,924 words] Reccer comment: "not quite gooey, but as fluffy as it can reasonably get and incredibly heartwarming"

In which a pair of wanderers return home — some slice of outlaw life!

Never Say Never (say how you feel) by fishpoets [5,402 words] Reccer comment: "one of my favorite tropes, and very sweet to boot!"

A list of things Jesse McCree has never done:

- spent the night with a lover without having sex - kept a lover for more than a handful of encounters - had a friend-with-benefits he actually considered a friend - or had a lover he actually loved.

There's a first time for everything.

Explicit

Have and Hold by t_pock [2,716 words] Reccer comment: "This one also has smut but it's so fluffy and so heart-warming... yeehan marriage 🥺❤️"

Jesse always thought there’d be a firefight on his wedding day.

And that's a wrap on this week! Thank you to everyone who sent in a recommendation! Keep an eye out for next week's theme: "Right on Time," or modern/contemporary AUs.

In the meantime, you can also check out the Week 1 recs here or preview upcoming themes here!

I love Batman but hate the reasons other people love. Yeah he’s cool af and everything but the aspects of him as a father figure to the Batfamily, brother to the Justice League, and the duality of him as a hero being one of the greatest but as a person him being as bad as some villains is way more fucking interesting then him being some bad ass human who can fight gods.

[Picture of brown-haired, blue-eyed, pale skinned woman with rainbow glasses, wearing an N95 mask, against light blue wall.

Text: “The headbands aren’t rubber so they don’t pull at your hair. It’s also very roomy; you don’t feel as confined when you take a breath. The downside is you look like a duck 🦆 with this N95.” Behind the Kimberly-Clark N95 pouch respirator is Stephanie, Founder of SpoonieStrong. 💙🥄

A childhood cancer survivor and chronic illness warrior, Stephanie was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis in 2013, after her 30-year journey to seek a diagnosis. She created #SpoonieStrong, a health blog, to build a community and motivate everyone to band together and stand up for each other!

“I wish people would understand how a small gesture like wearing a mask would save so many lives. Be a superhero to someone else: wear a mask!😷💙🥄”

Even though Stephanie has received the bivalent booster, she can still catch the virus and get very sick because of her immunocompromised state. She wears N95s to protect herself and keep her family safe.

“Mandate or not, masks are necessary, especially for the elderly and members of the spoonie community. No one likes wearing masks, but our collective action is critical.”

Based on the rising reported C19 deaths, experts have confirmed that XBB.1.5 can equally hospitalize and kill #elderly and #immunocompromised people as other Omicron variants did.

World Health Organization (@who)says #XBB15 is the most antibody resistant variant to date. #ɢᴇᴛᴠᴀᴄᴄɪɴᴀᴛᴇᴅ and boosted, mask, test, ventilate, distance, isolate when sick. The Layered Approach in mitigation measures is recommended by #WHO.

Thank you, Stephanie, for being #MaskTogetherAmerica’s #MaskedHero of the day.

BTW. Stephanie posted more details of what she is wearing on Amazon. Something about a sale."]

#AusBookishPhotoChallenge 3. Favourite Reads 💞 Hm, I always find myself stuck when having to pick some favourites out of a BIG stack of favourites so I've gone and dug up this book that started me on my reading path. It doesn't seem to be that well known 🤔 You definitely can't just rock up to a bookstore to buy a copy... it's not standard stock like Austen or Dickens 😌 Have you heard of The Scarlet Pimpernel? Have you read it? There have been some BBC adaptations too 😉 #igreads #bookstagram #ausbookishfeatures #TheScarletPimpernel #baronessOrczy #EmmuskaOrczy #classics #adventure #romance #maskedhero #frenchrevolution #favouritebook https://www.instagram.com/p/B-geWJdgBfS/?igshid=11q8bat2h57f0

Sorry you had to experience that, I hope that you're not shaken too much. Is there a way you can report the blog in question at all? If I need cheering up I always watch cat vines compilations on youtube. Its so silly but it does distract me! Xxxx

maskedhero replied to your post “You guys, I’m in a really bad mood. Tumblr recommended me a blog with...”

Many hugs!! The exact nature of ToS is fighting against mass oppression of all kinds and mindless genocide. That person running that blog is hateful and lonely, and always will be. You're a sweet and lovely person who is so considerate for others and your presence means a lot to people-- think about all the ones you love who are open and kind and accepting and remember that this world has more love than hate in it. That hatred may weigh more, but love lasts longer. Stay strong, okay?

fey-knight replied to your post “You guys, I’m in a really bad mood. Tumblr recommended me a blog with...”

well if it would make you feel better, you could remind yourself about how the charas of ToS would openly condemn nazis. like they pretty much do that in game. what with human ranches and all.. they would fight those ideas. so even though this nazi person might be a ToS fan (or a norse mythology fan) nothing about ToS or the message it sends, jives with his horrible identity or opinions.

You guys... I’m so grateful for all your comments and advice. I hope it’s okay for me to share them, because they helped me so much and I hope they can help others too. I spent some time watching cat videos and cuddling with my own pets, and was able to think about what all you said. I can’t fully express how much it means to me, so I’m going to post it here for others to read.

(As an aside, it was solely a mythology reference, and besides the very obvious symbols and quotes, the blog didn’t seem to have much interaction with others- positive or negative- so I don’t know if there’s anything to really report them for. I’d rather not deal with that again, so I’m going to ignore it and move on.)
