overwatch shipping discourse is wild, like wdym milkywave and mizuyang shippers are fighting. why can't they both kiss wuyang. or they all kiss each other
I think Juno and Wuyang is a simple and cute ship that's been creeping up on me when I least expect it lol. I'm in the middle of a long car ride so I'll try to make up some head cannons/ remember the few I have:]👍
• I saw a drawing prompt that made me think of them- Wuyang is visibly strong and Juno is relatively small, so I think it'd be cute if he carried her a lot<3
○ Makes her feel weightless
○ I imagine he's a very tactile person and enjoys feeling the solid weight of her in his arms
• He helps try to teach her how to overcome her fear of water and they hold hands while they do it
○ Taking walks along the beach shore, unironcally enjoying the gently lapping sea waves and setting sun, the stars beginning to blink into view
○ Juno incrementally relaxing on a pool floaty because Wuyang promised not to leave her side while he stands waist deep in the water beside her, leaning lightly against her floaty and keeping them stable, pressing a kiss against her cheek when she begins to drift off. It makes her smile faintly.
• Anran likes her:]
○ I mean it's Juno. *Look* at her. Anran did, and decided she was too sweet and needed to look after her. I think Wuyang would be happy about her approval.
○ Juno thinks Anran is very tough and cool.
• They're a very low maintenance/ high excitement couple
○ I imagine a common date for them is trying new street foods together and just generally doing stuff that puts stars in their eyes together.
○ Juno taking Wuyang on an aquarium date.
- They hold hands under the water during the touch exhibit and gently pet a starfish together
- Wuyang cries when Juno buys him a big whale plush
- Juno is really drawn to the jellyfish exhibit (designing a jellyfish!Juno skin in my head with this one boys)
• They're very supportive of each other
○ Wuyang has very golden retriever energy that is good for counteracting Juno's general anxiety- like one of those emotional support animals that she can look to if she's feeling out of her element, and when she notices that he's calm, smiling at her encouragingly, then she can be calm too
○ When he begins to spiral about his sense of self worth, Juno is a very effective cheerleader, taking his face in her hands and smiling brightly up at him, sometimes squishing his cheeks to get him to smile, sometimes bringing their foreheads together to speak in that soft and blunt way of hers to help him believe in himself the way that she believes in him, to see himself the way that she sees him
• Kiriko encourages the mischievous streak that Juno definitely has (a la the voiceline where Kiri asks her to modify her bike and Juno gets excited about it)- so when Juno successfully pulls off minor pranks, Wuyang helps to "hide" her by letting her giggle into his back or chest about whatever she's done
• It being a regular occurrence to see Wuyang just carrying Juno in their off time together. Yes I'm circling back to that. I think it's cute and this entire thing is an excuse for self indulgence lol
○ Bridal style with her arm around his neck, her hand idly playing with his hair while they chat casually about their days while he walks them through hq halls
○ Him giving her a ride on his shoulders while she gesticulates with her hands.
- She sits on his shoulders when they watch fireworks together.
○ He gives her a piggyback ride while she naps in the junction of his neck and shoulder
• Wuyang sometimes comes up behind her to curve himself over her back to hold her close, and Juno is proud to prop him up and "carry" him.
○ Wuyang napping with his head in her lap while she projects the stars
• Juno's the one that holds Wuyang's hands when she makes him a pair of rocket boots to help him keep his balance when they try them out together
○ Cue various members of your choosing from the rest of the team spotting their shenanigans and joining in on the fun. Very wholesome vibes, and lots of laughter all around.
• Wuyang feels like a 'Carries Her Stuff For Her' kind of boyfriend
• Juno thinks he's quite handsome and sometimes starts to blush when she stares at him for too long
○ As if he's not in the same boat as her lmao, they're very down bad for each other, it's cute how obvious they are about it to others
• Despite their existing insecurities/anxieties, they're very secure in their relationship with each other + them having similar tastes = If they spot someone that they think is attractive, they blush about it together and gush quietly to themselves
• Wuyang gives me 'helped with the cooking growing up' vibes, so I imagine he cooks for them
○ Juno gives me 'I ate nutrition packs/astronaut food growing up' vibes, so I imagine that her cooking is *very* Follow The Recipe Or Else when she cooks for the two of them
• Wuyang uses every opportunity to give her a little kiss
○ 'Hello'
○ 'Goodbye'
○ 'Just passing by each other in the hallway'
○ 'You look cute today'
○ 'Thank you'
- Juno gives him a little peck on the cheek out of the blue for the first time and he turns a bright red, and smiles all dopey and in love lol
• They're very "This Side of Paradise (slowed)" coded
○ Evidence: They hold hands a lot
• I think they do cute couple things together
○ Paint each other's nails
○ Wear outfits that pair well with each other when they go out
○ Make each other a build-a-bear
○ Do those photo booths to get photo strips to pin to their mirrors and smile at
• Juno putting on lipstick to press kisses all over Wuyangs face and she giggles about it the entire time she's doing it.
○ He wears them with pride, because of course he does.
Conclusion: I think they make my teeth rot now, thanks for the opportunity to think about them for a little while now, lol, it's been like 2 hours of this car ride so far
