If I had a nickel for every time I liked a game with orphaned brothers that fought, leaving the younger one a breath away from death, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice

featuring kiriko and the shimada bros and a moral doughnut crisis!

tysm for the collab!

Story art for my latest fanfic, "The Dragons' Truce". The bros mean a lot to me and I wanted to write a better reunion for them.

When Hanzo was born he was a ridiculously sweet baby. Looked like something straight out of a 'cutest babies ever' list, never screamed even when he cried, had the cutest laugh ever that sounded like his mothers, always cuddly and loved hug naps. The baby lottery.

Sojiro got kinda confused why his family were so insistent babies were loud, horrible and stressful. He was actually starting to like this whole 'papa' thing. Another baby couldn't hurt, right?

Genji was all the ugly, snot nosed, screaming, hyperactive baby chaos Hanzo wasn't born with personified. Sojiro definitely regretted Genji for a while LMAO 💀 Especially when the damn kiddy leash couldn't come off without him bolting somewhere until he was like, 13...

OK AU IDEA!

Very rushed I'm just writing this down because I came up with this 30 minutes ago and I have not thought it out very well and I'm too lazy to really double check my writing so probably a lot of grammatical errors in spelling errors or something I don't know lol

We know from one voice line from retribution between Genji and Reyes that talon tried to partner with the shimada clan but sojiro declined as they're view didnt aline.

Well what if he had agreed?

So Genji and Hanzo were raised in talon made to be not only shimada assassins but talon operative assassins so they were somehow even more brutal and inhumane than the shimada clan already was.

How Genji would end up joining OverWatch would be during an OverWatch mission to break into a talon base something goes wrong and one of them (Cass or Angela probably) can't make it back to the dropship or they're trapped or something, and genji knowing if talon finds out what he did they would kill him decides against his better judgment and decides to help the OverWatch agent he has no idea who they are.

And once he gets the agent back to the dropship Reagan's turns to him and offers him a place in OverWatch because he knows fine well talon/the shimada are going to have him killed for betraying them, and genji agrees. And eventually when they get back to base and after Reyes has finished convincing Morrison, once they start filling out his medical paperwork and a whole bunch of other stuff Reyes finds out that Genji is a cyborg.

And instead of becoming a cyborg once he was in OverWatch because his brother tried to kill him like normal, since he and Hanzo were raised in an even more violent and bloodthirsty environment they would often be made by each other and whoever lost would be punished either through extensive additional training, have something taken away that's the basic necessity, and eventually after those punishments weren't working and Genji was still losing to Hanzo, they started to replace parts. (Think like nebula and gamora from guardians of the galaxy) and since doomfist's family owns a cybernetics company it isn't too much of a stretch that they would have someone who could replace parts.

And the reason they were so easy with allowing an ex-talon operative to join OverWatch was because Baptiste had already joined at this point, and was the medic of black watch (moira is already gone at this point, they realized she didn't exactly have normal limits a lot faster). So they offered Genji a role in black watch alongside Cassidy, Baptiste, and sombra (because I want her to be here too). Since Genji already was wearing a mask when they met him, they didn't take it as very much of a surprise when he requested that his new black watch attire be armor and the helmet and you couldn't see his face or even eyes, they willingly obliged especially considering they allowed Cassidy to dress like a cowboy they couldn't exactly say no to the cyborg ninja to allow him to dress like a cyborg ninja, so his armor was made and it looks like his current armor but black watch color palette and instead of his normal hoodie and joggers he has black watch attire and looks more like he's on a black ops strike team. This black watch strike team would train alongside the OverWatch strike team and everyone even a lot of the black watch members at first the longest time thought Genji was an omnic because he never took off his armor in front of people except for Cassidy because they were roommates and Genji didn't sleep in the armor. The other black watch members found out a lot faster than the OverWatch team obviously from being around each other more but none of them ever talked about the fact Genji was actually a human so everyone still just assumed outside of black watch he was an omnic.

Also Genji's cybernetics look more along the lines of sojourns, where you can tell their cybernetics but they look more human than pure robotic. Also since he never went through a Playboy phase he starts off as more cold, aggressive, and quiet. But eventually when he starts warming up to everyone and learns that you can actually be a nice person and not constantly have to worry about someone trying to murder you or having to murder someone else he eventually shows off his more warm bubbly caring side to his personality.

Hanzo in this AU is still a part of talon but he is very internally conflicted because she does care about his brother in a weird way because even though he knows he calls them a lot of pain he still does care about him, and the fact he knows he calls him a lot of pain and creates a lot of inner turmoil in him that he is trying to push down but it's getting near a breaking point. And he is slowly becoming more and more uncertain of Talon's actions, with the final breaking point being when he almost kills his own brother during another OverWatch mission a couple years later and the shock of both realizing that his brother is alive, is on the other side, and that he almost killed him freaks him out to the point that he ends up running away from talon on his own. Not to join OverWatch at least not immediately he goes about by himself for a while trying to figure out reality and get a grip on what things are actually like because he is no idea because both of them had been brainwashed so much to the point they had no concept of what the real world is like.

Also probably kiriko would be a part of talon too as one of the assassins, and is probably the last of the three to leave because she has her mother still tying her there, and the anger of her believing that Genji and Hanzo just abandoned her when that is not what they were doing what was an accidental side product of what they were actually trying to do.

That's all I've got so far , again I did only come up with this like 30 minutes ago lol. feel free to add your own input!

Young Hanzo: Its my divine birthright as your older brother to beat you to death

Young Genji: You would never

*smash cut many years later*

Genji: Still believe in that "divine birthright"?

Hanzo: Currently? I'm considering it.

[wildwinterlunas]

Mercy: *pinching the bridge of her nose* OK, so how drunk did Genji and Gerard get last night?

Cassidy: Well Gérard got pretty drunk but he handled it like a camp....Genji though....

Mercy: Oh Gods what happened?

Cassidy: Well I think it was his first time drinking since his surgeries and prosthetics so-

Genji: *shouting from his dorm bathroom* I'm washing me and my clothes bitch! I'm washing me and my clothes~

Cassidy: He's drunk as hell...

Mercy: God fucking damn it....

Genji: *now in a sing song voice* I'm gonna dive in~

I have a Sims household where Hanzo and Cassidy from Overwatch are engaged. I decided to have them have a Science Baby and their asses decided to have triplets.

Like??? What the fuck am I supposed to do now???

[cyberbirb-arts]

I was re-watching Genji reveal his face in the Dragons cinematic. I like to think that he smiles at Hanzo and dammit I wanna cry. 😭

I wish we could see him as he is now, the scars, everything he's been through. ❤

[looses-gooses]

Hanzo’s team to go along with Cole’s :]
