Hanzo Shimada x (former) Servant!Reader

ok so- we all know the Shimada family was like, rich rich, right? imagine being a worker at shimada castle - just this average person working as a servant (probably with great pay ngl) when they were younger, and many years later seeing the heir of the family you used to work for being the hanamura equivalent of batman.

Younger Hanzo would be both easier yet harder to interact with, given your position.

Physically, it wouldn't be much of a problem to find him. Working at Shimada Castle would make it much easier, that's for sure.

On the other hand, he'd be harder to reach emotionally. Both because of clan expectations he'd no doubt be constantly trying and training to live up to, as well as the fact that he isn't naturally a social person.

Easiest solution? Don't try to interact with him. At least, don't try too hard.

If you work at the castle for long enough, being a consistent enough presence to become simply a familiar part part of Shimada Castle, he'll grow more open to you. As open as he knows how to be, anyway.

Hanzo strikes me as the type to favor routines, or at least the familiarity that comes with it.

Say you were the one assigned to bring him tea every so often. Maybe you knew enough about tea to be able to recommend blends to his preference, or you simply were assigned the role.

Overtime, he'd subtly begin to open up - asking about the tea blend you've decided on this time, perhaps even complimenting your choice of tea to serve.

If you work for the Shimada Clan long enough, he'd probably even notice if you were gone for a day, asking you the next time you bring him his tea.

However, despite this familiarity, I'm not sure if he would ever consider you a friend T-T. He'd most likely still see you as a staff member, maybe an acquaintance? Perhaps unrealized crush as well.

If you ever did develop a crush on Hanzo while working for the Shimada Clan, fully expect Genji to find out, regardless of if you've ever even talked to him.

Genji would tease either you or Hanzo no matter if you had a crush or not - nudging Hanzo whenever you walked within eyesight and pointing you out to him as 'his favorite servant', or following you around asking you questions while you were just trying to do your job.

After the Shimada Clan falls however, that would be...interesting.

Years after leaving your job as a servant to the Shimada Clan, just trying to make your way home through the streets at night, you'd run into him again.

Your reunion could vary from watching him take out a bunch of thugs from a rooftop to meeting again at a teashop or cafe.

Regardless of how you meet, you two do meet again. I'd imagine for Hanzo it'd be a bit bittersweet - seeing someone from his past, from before he lost everything, yet who's also a familiar face who he felt at least somewhat comfortable with.

He wouldn't open up immediately of course, but it'd be a bit easier to connect with him before, now that there wasn't a social class dynamic-thing happening anymore.

You'd most likely be the one to have to work to maintain contact between the two of you. Being the first to ask him things, message him, etc.

If you take that time however, he'd certainly become closer than you. Perhaps even realizing his unrealized crush from his youth.

If he were to develop/redevelop a crush on you, he'd certainly have to go to either Genji or Kiriko, both of which would most likely give him some version of - 'wow, you just realized?' - as a response, before giving varying advice, but none of which he finds helpful.

I'm not quite sure if he'd ever have the courage to ask you out. If he did however, it'd either be the most romantic scene every, or on accident with pure comedic timing.

anyways this is all i've got for now, maybe i'll write a proper one shot with this scenario later!

Kiriko: Oh, fiddlesticks! That really ruffles my feathers! Hanzo: Please, just say fuck.

Mccree: *flirts*

Hanzo: *flirts back*

Mccree to himself: I was not expecting this outcome. What the fuck do I do now?

It's gonna be a long day at work. So I decided to try this. Anyone got any questions for me? It can be anything from headcanons on the fandom you follow me for fanart to what I like in my coffee to what I think of socks in sandales. Hit me!

The highest level among the other five was barely 185 and I felt particularly generous.

So I gave our Hanzo this assist in multi-kill with a single “Orisa Pinch(TM)” to his beloved, kickass Dergons(TM).
