Ask Rules & Navigation Tips

Be kind and respectful to anyone you come into contact with on this blog.

If you send in an NSFW headcanon, please put a warning at the beginning so I know to properly tag it.

No minor involved NSFW headcanons, you will be blocked.

This blog is purely for fun and for sharing ideas. Attacking anyone over a headcanon or ship will result in a delete of the comment/ask and an immediate block. If there are too many instances of hate in anon asks, anon asks will be turned off.

Keep in mind, every headcanon I post is copy and pasted by the ask or message I have been sent with it. I do not spell or grammar check these headcanons and do not typically check their contents unless there’s a warning to. If there is an issue with one, please tell me and I will address it through editing or deletion of the headcanon.

Navigation

All characters involved in a headcanon are tagged both by their full name and code name (if they have one)

Posts that are not headcanons will be tagged as “not headcanon stuff” and/or “maintenance”

Headcanons that need it will be tagged with trigger warnings with “tw (trigger)”. If you feel there is any incorrect tagging or needs to be a tag that isn’t there, say so.

Once during a mission, Cole wasn't paying attention and accidentally stepped on the head of a hoe in the warehouse they were scouting.

If Cole didn't leave Overwatch after it fell, he would have taken over as Commander Cassidy to lead the new age heroes (with or without the Petras Act)

In his travels, Zenyatta has touched the hearts of everyone, from healing Genji, to helping Winston locate Overwatch to join, to consoling Widowmaker at Gerard's grave, to defending Bastion from Null Sector supporters, to meeting with Sombra and Baptiste, to consoling both Reaper and Soldier 76 after their pasts, to helping Echo find Overwatch, to guiding Wrecking Ball towards civilization in Australia, and more.
