#mirrorwatch headcanons

I've honestly struggled to describe how canon Talon and MW!Talon's end goals differ from the description we got on Vengeance, cause there is a big difference in how Vengeance leads Talon and Doomfist leads Talon.

But I think I've got it now.

Our Talon, the one that Doomfist leads, want their end result to basically be an apocalypse, a world where only the strong survive. You can't have conflict without chaos and a world of pure conflict is a world of pure chaos. Which honestly adds to the fact that Talon has no genuine loyalty within it and how that will be it's downfall but that's a different discussion.

Meanwhile MW!Talon, and subsequently Vengeance, wants to, and I quote, "fight for a better world--one where she wields full control over life and death". That isn't something that would lead to an apocalyptic outcome, it would lead to a dystopia. Everything about Vengeance screams as a fight for control, all her voice lines a clinical, straightforward, an order. There is an emotional aspect to her, her name is Vengeance and though Ana is with Talon, it seems like they are at odds, but that doesn't erase that fact that her end goal is based around control.

In conclusion; Our Talon would make an apocalypse if they won, while MW!Talon would make a dystopia.

Hmm okay Mirrorwatch had an interesting choice by them killing off Ramattra though I understand the reason why they would do that.

Yes we all know that Tracer killed him simple as that. Though a part of me finds that a bit too easy you also got to remember she's basically the Reaper of Mirrorwatch.

Remember "Alive" I hardly doubt it was the same when Tracer blinked away from Widow's bullet. As much as I like that headcanon of the same thing with Widow moving out of the way with the plus bomb hitting the target.

I don't think that was the case, I do think Widow tried to stop Tracer from killing Ramattra but she didn't use Widow to kill Ram instead I think it gave Tracer the opportunity that the bullet missed Ram causing a panic making Tracer blink to Ram before sticking her plus bomb onto him. And we all know how that ends.

But that just's my headcanon is it brutal? oh 100% remember Mondatta had a mercy kill as for Ramattra his was brutal.

Though that's just my two cents of the matter.

Another Mirrorwatch headcannon!! This time about Tracer. My theory is that this version of Tracer's chronal accelerator is a lot more unstable, hence why she takes damage when she blinks too much. Which also leads to involuntary blinking in cirtain situations, in turn that leads to MW!Tracers form looking unstable some times, like there are multiple versions of her standing in one place. Think Ghost from "Antman and the Wasp". This situation is also very painful for her to go through as well, mainly due to her fighting to stay in one time stream.

I'm gonna be honest and say you can tell when a season has writers and artist collaborating because there are always little details about the skin designs and other cosmetics that come out with the season.

With Mirrorwatch you can see it in a lot of the designs, MW!Widow wears a jacket like Tracer does while her hair is styled in a way that matches Ana's silhouette, MW!Ana has an outfit that somewhat mimics Reaper's silhouette, her cloak is in the the same style as Moira's cloak, and has signs of experimentation like Widow, MW!Tracer has an outfit reminiscent of Widow's talon skin while also having points and a scarf the mimics Reaper, along with making poses heavily similar to his.

Mirrorwatch is probably the best example but other story focused season also have this level of detail. I honestly really like it!

Sorry, could you remind me of what Pharah and Emily do in Mirrorwatch? And maybe Venture and Mauga too please?

Ok so my HC for MW!Pharah is that she essentually takes Ashe's role as a gang leader. With that MW!Pharah, going with the flipping morals stuff, has a very negative relationship with MW!Ana, absolutely being horrified at the mere mention of her being like Ana. A big story point for her is also that MW!Cassidy is the person who helped her escape Talon.

In my opinion MW!Emily takes on Soldier 76's role, specifically in the fact of her relationship with Lena. I've seen a few people disagree with this but MW!Tracer very obviously modeled after Reaper with her motivation and goal. Yes she takes Widow's role in some story point but her being modelled after Reaper is important to acknowledge. Also I don't like the idea of Emily not being relevant to Tracer's story in a universe like this when they could have easily done the same wither Gerard. That got ranty but yeah, MW!Emily is looking for answers on what happened to Lena and is the main advocate that she can be saved.

With Venture I haven't really made a deep post on, basically I think a Mirrorwatch Venture would be Indiana Jones. An archeologist who has little care for the historical and cultural value of artifacts.

With Mauga I picture him being a new MW!Overwatch recruit, however, he's been active since the Samoan Ecopoint was taken by the Deepsea raiders. Him being a main defender. I picture MW!Mauga being someone who cares deeply on who things effect the people and environment around him.

A penny for your MW!Reinhardt thoughts

God do I have THOUGHTS-

Now we don't get a lot of outside information on MW!Reinhardt but there are a lot of story implications in his voice lines.

Specifically it seems that he was brainwashed in this universe, this being based on MW!Ana's voice lines with him and MW!Reinhardt say "you hold my leash no longer" when killing MW!Ana. Though it definitely seems different the what happened to Widow.

More specifically I think an alteration made to him was that his heart rate was increased and he was made to be more sensitive to emotion, especially anger.

It also seems that either MW!Ana is the one authorising these augmentations. Likely being MW!Rein's handler.

What furthers the brainwashed theory is the MW!Reinhardt skin name, "Fallen Knight" is not typically how you would describe an evil knight, however it is a good way to describe a knight that been corrupted in some way.
