((resubmitting bc for whatever reason it doesn’t show up in the promptwatch tag))

for promptwatch! reyes struggling to accept what he’s become. I like to imagine his body works like a dead person’s now, with the weird stretched face and blood pooling thing going on there

I also like to think that he can’t smile properly because of the explosion and also because of that uncanny valley thing corpses have

(sorry for weird colors, laptop doesn’t display them correctly for me so what looks right to me looks wrong to u probably)

Hey, I saw the last person posted their work a month later (no offense!!). How much time to we have to do our fanworks after the prompt is posted? Bc I usually go through long periods of not doing anything and then suddenly making like four fics at the same time

hi anon!

we welcome posts at any time from any prompt, just be sure to specify which prompt it’s for so we can tag it appropriately :)

i look forward to seeing your four fics 😉

Bittersweet

one | “traditions”

Title: Bittersweet Fandom: Overwatch Pairing: none Rating: T+ Warnings: brief mention of violence and (temporary, canon) character death Word Count: 4,378  Notes: This was written for @promptwatch​’s first prompt, “Traditions,” and is an entire month late. It ties into the official holiday comic, “Reflections,” and also features a bit of backstory and worldbuilding.

OVERVIEW

After his encounter with Genji, Hanzo reflects on their past and finally allows himself to contemplate the future.

EXCERPT

Hanzo breathes deeply, savoring the chill in the air as he peruses the storefronts. Night has finally fallen. The skydome is translucent for the most part, but it still leaves an ethereal film across the stars. The thousands of tiny lights suspended far above and the warm candlelit lanterns interspersed throughout the bazaar compensate for any dullness, gilding the city with golden light. The unexpected brightness disorients Hanzo as he paces the streets, careful not to linger too long or draw attention to himself. He’s contemplating retreating to his dark, quiet room when it happens.

A simple display in the window of a bakery catches his eye.
