reinhardt ♡
the two of you have known each other for many years. you were in the crusaders together, and fought alongside one another for as long as you could remember. what used to be a crush turned into a deep-set yearning the more time passed by. you swear that no one you have never ached for someone the way that you ached for him, and he could say the same about you. the difference between the two of you is that he was always more vocal about his affections. you are the type of person who shows your love through actions instead of words, and while reinhardt has never hesitated to show you that he adores you, he was far more outspoken about it than you were. there were many times where he was boasting about how wonderful you are, the way that you would dote on him and just how lovely you are. you would get embarrassed and try to quiet him, which only made him laugh and become louder. you're a pair of adorable fools.
when reinhardt mentioned meeting his family for the first time, you were nervous. you knew that the lindholms were people that reinhardt adored, and that there were a lot of them, so you were very intimidated. you wanted to make a good impression and do right by reinhardt, but you had never let him down before. you were very quickly accepted into the lindholm family, and you came the love them just as much as reinhardt does. family is something that reinhardt holds close to his heart, so seeing you get along so well with everyone set into stone that you were the person that he wanted to be with.
it was the holiday season, and you were invited to spend it with the lindholms once again. the moon was lounging in the sky, the stars by its side when you and reinhardt were enacting a story for the children. of course, reinhardt was the knight come to save the day, and you were his royal in distress. you collaborated in narration with him while he battled pillows and stuffed animals, pretending that they were ferocious beasts that kept him from you. he fiercely defeated every enemy that blocked his path with a plastic sword, and when he finally reached you, you laid your hand over your heart and fell into his arms. he spun you around while holding you bridal style, laughter from all parties singing into the air. finally, the journey had come to an end, and the large man dipped you down and asked, "i don't suppose that you have a reward for me, your highness?"
you knew exactly what he meant, and you shook your head playfully at his antics. "but of course i do." you said, then turned to the children, "but should i?"
the tiny audience screeched for you to kiss him. you couldn't possibly deny them, so you leaned in and rewarded your diligent hero with a kiss. there was absolutely no hesitation from reinhardt, returning your gesture like it was the most natural thing in the world to him. his lips were dry, but he was ever so warm. the kids lost it and all began squealing and yelling excitedly as you wrapped your arms around his neck, strong arms pulling you closer to him as he slightly rose from the dip. you both agree that you would have loved to become official much sooner, but that moment was perfect. after all of the longing, there could be no moment more fitting for you to your devotion to each other.
venture ♡
i feel like venture gets really nervous when it comes to you. they don't find themself feeling so strongly about just anyone, so when they realized that they were developing feelings for you, they didn't really know what to do about it. you felt similarly, always tripping over your words when talking to them, laughing a little too hard at one of their jokes or taking note of every detail that you could retain about their interests. neither of you made any moves that were obvious to yourselves, but everyone around you was in agony.
venture's well-known way of showing affection to their loved ones is through pebbling. they'll find something that they think someone will like, and rush to give it to them. some of the overwatch team know this about venture and find it super endearing when they are on the receiving end of their gift-giving, but when they all noticed that you became venture's favorite person to gift to, they started to become suspicious. you returned their generosity by getting them any and everything that you could find that took to their interests, and they were always over the moon about it. they would brag to other members of overwatch about what you got them and talk for hours about it. neither of you are very subtle when it comes to your feelings, so they all figured out pretty quickly that the two of you were into each other and just never said anything.
you had been working on something for a long time, and when you finally finished it, you knew that you had to give it to venture as soon as humanly possible. you were hanging out in their room when you showed them a statue that you hand-carved of the two of you, and to say that venture was excited would be an understatement. they marveled at your creation, gently cradling it in their hands and admiring all of the little details that you added. they talked about the material that you used and gushed before setting the statue aside, opening their arms and blurting out, "I WANNA KISS YOU SO BAD!!!!"
upon realizing what they said, the archaeologist slammed both of their hands over their mouth with wide eyes. they started rambling apologies and you were just as surprised, cheeks growing hot on your face. you tried to console them before taking their hands in your own and telling them, "i want you to kiss me."
surprise spreads across their face, though it's quickly replaced by excitement. their eyes sparkle and they smile widely before wrapping their arms around your neck and kissing you. their lips were soft, a little chapped but you didn't mind, and their kiss was ever so tender. you felt so lucky that of all people, you are the person that they feel safe with. and everyday, they thank their lucky stars that you stand at their side through every adventure.
mercy ♡
poetry has always been the best way that you express your feelings. before becoming official with mercy, you were always telling her that she was the most beautiful, loving, unique soul that you had ever met. not to say that you didn't show your affections through your actions too, as mercy is the type of person who doesn't just want to hear things, she wants you to show it. and you did. time and time again, you helped mercy clean up after a hard fought battle, went out for coffee with her and listened to her when she needed you to. you had proven to mercy that you were serious about your feelings for her, you just like to express it through words.
so, when you finally decided that you wanted to make things official with her, you wrote her a poem. you spent a long time working on it, revising and sometimes even starting something completely new. after everything that the two of you had been through together, and because of how important she is to you, you wanted it to be perfect.
the night that you read it to her, she was smitten. you had become one of the most important people in her life, and hearing you express your deepest, truest feelings to her solidified it in her head that you are the person she wanted. your performance was exquisite, albeit a little dramatic due to your theatric nature, but that's just one more thing that she loved about you. she applauded once you were finished and chuckled, standing before approaching you and holding your hands. "ever the charmer, you are." she muses lightheartedly.
you chuckled and placed a hand on her hip. "am i charming enough for a kiss?" you asked, partially teasing and really not at the same time.
the woman chuckles and taunts, "just charming enough."
her lips felt like magic as they connected to yours. both of your arms come around her to encase her in an embrace, pulling her close to your body as you return her affection. her hands rested on your chest and she gratefully kept against you. you hadn't become official sooner because mercy wanted to focus on her career in overwatch, but the closer that you grew, the more that you showed her that you will always have her back. you came to her when she needed you most, and she always did the same for you. she believes that with you by her side, the chances of ending this war are far greater than none.
brigitte ♡
i imagine that brigitte is the type of person who is very private about her love life, due to one of her interactions with tracer. tracer asks if she's seeing anyone, and brigitte says that she'll tell her later. with that being said, i think romance is a personal experience for her, so she doesn't talk too openly about it. therefore, when you began to grow romantically involved with brigitte, she told you that she didn't want it to be too public. you both agreed to only keep it to you and a few of your close loved ones, and you were alright with this arrangement. so long as brigitte is comfortable, you are too.
this was your dynamic for awhile. around others, all interactions you shared were purely platonic, but when you were alone, you were able to flirt, snuggle and leave lingering touches to your hearts content. it was difficult sometimes, but in the end, it was always worth it to have time with her later on. many nights that you spent together were just sitting around and talking. brigitte has always been an easy person to talk to, and when you are with her, you feel as though you could tell her anything without any judgement. nothing is better than a conversation with her.
it was one of those nights that you shared your first kiss with brigitte. you were talking about the way that your relationship has progressed, and how every day, your feelings for her grew stronger and stronger. she was looking at you like you were her everything, a crooked smile tilting onto her lips. in that moment, no one else existed in her world outside of the two of you. she listened to you talk about how much you adored her, a little pink coming to her cheeks. never has she felt so strongly about anyone, and never has she been so sure that she has wanted something the way that she wants you. while you were rambling, you weren't upfront with what you were trying to say, but you didn't have to. because brigitte knew how you felt. so, she cupped one side of your face and confessed, "i love you too."
you swore that you felt like you were flying the moment that your lips touched. her lips were soft and the pressure was gentle. her hand was warm and rough against your skin, yet cradled you so carefully. so much weight, tension and longing lifted from your shoulders when she finally made her move, and you weren't hesitant to return the gesture. you took her face in both hands and kissed her hard, and her hand came up to hold your face while her lips returned your roughness. you were both finally put out of your misery after so much time spent yearning for each other. you would make your relationship official that night, and slowly became more open about it to everyone in your lives. though, none of this came before brigitte smothered you in all of her kisses and affection.

Blizzard I beg PLEASEEEEEE explain this it’s been years and we still have no clue who she was talking about
And I mean it is pride month sooooooo
Miss girl is soooo sapphic and you cannot convince me otherwise like little 14 year old me latched on to her and was like yeah she likes girls and she’s pretty then proceeded to main her and put countless hours into her back when the only rep we had was tracer and soldier + tracer asking that question (who is 1/2 of the sapphic characters in game) could be her being likes cool older gay cousin type figure
And Brig seems to be becoming and major player in the story rn and ik it’s not the rlly the time for romance but like if she makes a comments…. Or if she gets with someone already in the cast….
I mean ik brig and dva have been a ship for a hot minute and they had TENSION in the dokiwatch and she’s met anran in the comic and will probs meet sierra soon soooooo…..
I’m just saying the girl has options and idc if the voice line came out years ago and she’s only meeting some of these characters now when has overwatch’s timeline ever made sense??? Hell she could be like surprise its venture!! And I’d be happy like when the hell did the meet? Idk and idc I just want ANSWERS
Also not saying that she can’t be with a guy she totes can miss girl just is not straight 🙂↕️ there’s just no guys in her age range I could see her with like the options are (within 5 years of her) mizuki hazard junkrat Lucio and ramattra and no hate to any of those ships (idek if they exist) but I just don’t see it…. If I had to pick it’d be Lucio since they already have a mutual respect and friendship
Tho overwatch doesn’t really care about age gaps im looking at you emfrej with your 10 year age gap (my blorbos)
Anyways I love brig so much so give her someone to love and to pick up with one hand cause she totally would
Request: Kiriko brigg dva and sombra having a S/O who calls them by a pet name in thier native language but doing it badly
Requested by: @golem543
It took a little while, scrolling on your device and searching through books to find the right pet name to call your girlfriend, wanting to surprise her. Unluckily though you didn’t have enough time to practice so when you finally said it you messed up.
Trying to call her your ‘koibito’ which instead came out as kobito, so calling her your lover quickly turned into calling her short.Her mind raced, looking at your face, realising you didn’t mean it. Instantly bursting out laughing, almost collapsing onto the floor.
"You just called me a tiny person, you know that, right?" She teases, cheeks pink from laughing.
She thinks it's adorable that you're trying, and insists you keep calling her that, although she corrects your pronunciation with a sweet little smile.
There was one pet name she often called you, she said it was ‘älskling’ or something, it apparently meant darling. So you decided it was time to try say it back to her even though you barely spoke Swedish.
Because you barely spoke the language your attempt at the name wasn’t… good. It was a jumbled mess, luckily Brigitte could tell what you were saying.
She beamed at your attempt, pulling you into a tight hug while speaking. "Aww, you're so close! It's älskling," she says, before giving you a kiss on the cheek for trying.
Takes it upon herself now to properly teach you a few more Swedish pet names.
For the longest time you’ve been wanting to return the favour to your girlfriend of pet names, specifically ones in her language. Which leads you down a small rabbit hole of names to call her.
Settling on ‘친애하는’ or ‘dear,’ but you messed up, saying something similar but wrong. Something you didn’t pick up on, she did, immediately.
"Whaaat— you were this close!" she teases, doing an exaggerated pout.
She laughs and repeats it correctly for you, even typing it out on her phone so you can practice.
She thinks it's endearing and loves when you use Korean with her, even if you mess up, she just wants you to keep trying!
You tried for the classic ‘Mi Amor,’ only to get distracted mid sentence, instead saying ‘mi amorro.’
Watching her pause then crack up laughing, so much she has to lean against a wall.
“Y/N, that wasn’t correct, Mi Amor.”
Even if your mistake was minor she wasn’t letting you live it down, often using the butchered names on herself when you’re around.
Still loves when you try again, even if you mess it up she just melts inside, you’re trying at least.
