Wattson: What did you say?

Caustic: Nothing, I said "you're so great" and then I stopped talking.

A HC fic of Watton’s recovery

Two weeks have passed since the incident on the other dimension, Natalie was stable and has physically recovered but she still hasn’t regained consciousness yet. The legends took their time to visit her in the room she was resting on, but the one who stayed the longest was Caustic; this side of the mad scientist was a side none of the legends expected to be alive to witness this “vulnerable” part of him, yet here he was, a man that enjoying causing pain to acquire knowledge was the same as this paternal figure that suffered in silence. Lifeline assure them that Natalie should be waking up in a couple of days, but she would still need some rest, after all, she could experience some trauma after all that she experienced.

Ajay was the only one wasn’t too afraid to try and make some conversation with Caustic, not that the others were terrified but they preferred to let him alone.

-She’s gonna be okay Doc-

Caustic sight didn’t leave the still resting engineer when he answered

-I know she will, a stubborn girl like Ms. Paquette won’t go down so easily-

-Still callin’ ya daughter like that huh? –

He just let a deep sigh, rubbed his forehead and continued

-She is… close to me, but I’m not sure if she would accept me that way-

-Ya kno’ that she does sees you as a father figure, right? You both have a tendency for taking good care of each other in the arena, plus she seems to be the only one you actually “care” for, not just respect-

For the first time in many years he felt a warm sensation coursing through out his chest, this kind of “happiness” was something he thought he wouldn’t be able to experience ever in his life. He did care about Natalie’s well-being, spending time with her working and talking about their respective sides of science.

-Is that a happy grunt I hear or ‘am getting’ crazy?

-Don’t test my patience-

-Aigth, I’ll let ya be, stay as long as ya need-

With that Ajay left the room, Caustic stayed for another twenty minutes, he liked to take care of the flower arrangement Path and Elliot bought for her, with this done Alexander thought of leaving to grab something to eat, that was until he heard Natalie’s voice calling for him

-Dr. Caustic? –

He turned to face the tired looking girl, she was back, he grabbed his comm and call Ajay immediately. The doctor then got back to his chair and grabbed her hand

-I’m here-

Those were the only words he could say before he felt a knot in his throat, a gut wrenching feeling to see her so weak, while at the same time enormous amounts of relief of knowing they got her back. Ajay busted through the door mere seconds after he called her and asked Caustic to wait outside for a bit, he did let the medic do her work in peace and waited on a bench outside.

-Alright, she seems stable, she’ll be fine you can see her now, I’ll go ‘n inform the others-

Caustic got closer to the more conscious Wattson who greeted him with a warm smile

-Two weeks gone huh? –

-Yeah…-

-What did I miss? –

-Not much to be honest, say, were somewhat aware of the things that happened while you were “napping”? –

Natalie did recall hearing things while she was down

-Some vague things, I know Octane and Mirage cried sometimes, Wraith and Gibby kept me entertained with some books, according to Ajay all of you visited me-

All except for two, Alexander will be dammed if he had let Loba or Revenant get closer to her.

-We were worried, you really… shocked us-

Natalie didn’t know what was more surprising, the fact that he admitted that he was worried or the use of one of her puns, whatever it was she giggle softly.

-I’m happy to hear that Dr. Caustic-

-And I’m glad that you ara fine… Natalie-

Tears rolled down from her eyes and little sobs escaped her, Caustic quickly dried her tears and hold her close into a hug, this was the first time Wattson saw Alexander Nox, she was extremely happy for this.

-I-I don’t know what to say-

-Save it for later, I can hear Octane’s footsteps and that means they’ll be here soon, and I don’t need them nagging me with questions-

-Merci papa-

After this the door slammed with force, a sobbing Octane rushed to hug Natalie and soon enough the rest of the legends followed sue, tears from the daredevil and trickster almost flooded the room, Lifeline and Gibraltar had to use force to get them off Natalie’s side to give her some space, although she didn’t seem to mind, the rest were a little more careful with their approach giving her enough space after a tight hug (especially from Makoa), Wattson was happy to be back.

Salty dad

Wattson: Daddy, could you hand me the salt please?

Caustic: That’s new from you Na-

Octane giving Natalie the salt: I-I... puedo explicarlo

Caustic: …

Mirage whispering to Lifeline: ten bucks says he’s gonna die

Lifeline: twenty says he’ll be used a test subject

Sleepy Wraith HC

Sometimes the voices in her head keep her from getting the rest she needs, so the other legends try to help by being there for her when she just feels like taking a random nap.

Hugs to them like a baby koala, resting her head on top of their shoulder: Mirage and Wattson; mainly because they are both comfy and warm most of the time.

Gets positioned under one of their arms: Gibraltar and Caustic; being the biggest of the legends this is how she usually sleeps with them on the couch (they always have a book in hand to read while she sleeps)

Uses their lap as her pillow: Bloodhound, Lifeline and Pathfinder; this three are the only ones who are allowed to style Renee’s hair, the rest either don’t know how to or they just suck at it.

Sits beside them and rest her head on their shoulder: Crypto and Bangalore; they even unconsciously rest their heads on top of her sometimes (old habits die hard)

Rest her legs on his lap: Octane; Octavio isn’t use to stay still but he knows that she need rest after the voices keep her up all night, he sometimes softly sings some lullabies in Spanish for her.

The odd one: Revenant; He is always informed of where and when she is sleeping on base, the voices always alert her of his presence thus preventing her from actually sleeping, so he always steps away.
