Not my statue, not my problem

-squiiiiiints loudly- Who’s this bellhead Blinkin around like she’s me and Genji’s mutant baby?

“Talon has some gnarly troops. Wasn’t sure if this one’s human or omnic until she stopped for good.”

“And? What was she? And was it really Winston’s tech for me or did they manage their own?”

“Seemed human to me. Mostly anyway… tech implants in places, some biological tweaks in others. Tech looked like someone got a look at Winston’s notes and decided to experiment on their own.”

-miffed off grumbling, similar to an angry cat, if she had a tail it’d be twitchin-

“Talon needs to go ‘Boil their Head’ as Moira says.”

He grins, amusement covering whatever else lies beneath.

“That they do. By the pace things are going you might get to help that happen eventually, too.”

To that she perked up like a puppy. “Really? That fast? I thought major battles against Talon operations where where higher ranked missions”

“Hey, if they have jackasses blinking around like pogo sticks on steroids we might need to have one to keep up with them. We were lucky to not have to fight more than one at a time.”

“Jack might not like having rookies in that deep, but he’ll come around. Always has, always will.”

Long Reasons Not to Trust Moira in Retribution

“One of the things we really like doing with Overwatch is playing with perspective. We utilize perspective when we analyze or when we tell stories about characters, what they’re thinking, what their goals are. And we have a lot of unreliable narrators. We want people to pay careful attention to what characters think about in particular situations. We want them to use their judgment and their knowledge of a character’s thoughts to come up with their own ideas about the universe.

“[…] The world needs heroes, but it also needs villains. And we have a number of villainous characters in Overwatch. And what’s important to us is that their internal motivations are not purely rooted in ‘being evil,’ despite how they might seem on the surface. You know, as we reveal more about these characters, we want people to be able to empathize and understand their beliefs. Because sometimes what makes a villain a villain is the extent to which they’re willing to go to reach their goals. And one thing that we find most important when we’re talking about our villain characters is that there is nothing to say that a villain cannot be as charismatic - or more charismatic - or as likeable as a hero character. Because like the old saying goes, ‘Every villain is the hero of their own story.’”

- Excerpts from Michael Chu’s GDC talk, “Thinking Globally: Building the Optimistic Future of Overwatch,” April 2017 (source)

“We stand on the brink of a breakthrough in human evolution. I have dedicated my life to unraveling its secrets. I take risks that others would consider to be ‘unwise,’ for I do not share their caution. Overwatch held back the pace of scientific discovery for decades. They believed my methods were too radical… too controversial…

“And they tried…to silence me.”

- Moira, Origin Story (source)

———

It begins with an experiment.

It is thirty years in the future - approximately 2046-2047. Facilities of the defunct company Omnica Corporation have suddenly gone back online. In a moment of surreality, armies of robots are unleashed from these Omniums and begin to attack humanity the world over.

But national militaries struggle. And fail.

And so, in a gamble for the fate of humankind -

They begin to experiment.

Some countries use cybernetic augmentation. Some countries develop highly specialized armor.

Some countries take normal soldiers -

And “enhance” them.

And at least one of those soldiers -

Gets a little…too experimental.

(A lot more under the cut. I’m not joking. Turn back now.)

Under the Mistletoe

“Gabe!” Lena called, spotting the commander and Blinking over to him. She all but shoved the gift into his hands. Gourmet hot chocolate! She beamed up at him, eyes flicking up when a spring of white & green swung, catching her attention. She smiled and pointed up impishly, waiting til he looked before jumping up and kissing his cheek.@cmdrreyes

¨”Woah, Jesus, slow down Spitfire!”

Gabriel laughed, just about managing to make sure he wouldn’t drop the present before she pointed out the mistletoe, nearly catching him off-guard with the jump-and-kiss.

He did manage to catch her around the waist with his free arm mid-jump, keeping her still long enough for a proper return smooch - cheek of course - beard prickles and all.

“What’s the rush?”

timexout:

“ ‘M Tt-Tryinn” Her voice glitched for a second, and Lena forced herself to steady her breathing. Unfortunately she Blinked completely out of his grip, dropping onto the floor with a pained cry and groan as she rolled onto her side. Weakly, she pointed towards the bedroom.

“F-Foot of bed… Wall side panelL. Chronal bubbler…hiIIII-dden …hurry…”

Fuck!

Gabriel darted into the other room, grabbing one of the spare communicators stored in the safe house on the way and punching in the override code that would bypass all the technically-necessary bureaucratic in-betweens and connect it directly to the ones that mattered. He may have got the same basic briefing as anyone who might end up in the field with Oxton for whatever reason, but that didn’t mean he could deal with this. The Los Muertos story checked out well enough - the girl needed the monkey to help her now.

Panel... panel... there!

“Hold on, I’ve got it!” Thank god these things were designed as easy to activate as possible.
