Send me “Ours” for a drabble of our muses raising a child
“There are a good many things that are not fair in life, Genji.”
A muttered Japanese swear came from the cyborg, before he slammed his fist against the wall.
“Don’t give me that now! You wanted this too!” He says, his voice harsh as he turns to look at Zenyatta. The vents on his shoulders release steam, and his hand slides down from the wall to rest against his side again, fist still clenched.
The omnic remains calm under the rage of his boyfriend. Taking gentle strides towards him, he stops in front of him, taking Genji’s hands in his own. Softly squeezing them, as reassurance.
“Yes, I too, wanted this.” he says, his voice silent, trying to hide the fact that he was sad. “But fate would not have it this way. We can continue to mope and cry about how unfair it is, but it will not change the outcome, as much as we want it. All we can do is move on, and find something else that makes us happy.”
Zenyatta talking has Genji calming down, his vents releasing another tuft of steam as he lets the omnic guru hold his hands. His shoulders slump as he moves forward, letting his head rest on Zenyatta’s shoulder. He doesn’t say anything, his body and energy talking for him. The both of them just stand there in each other’s silence, taking their time to process the message they had recieved, and what it meant to them.
“You would have been an amazing father.” Genji finally breaks the silence.
“As would you have been, Genji.”
On the table near them lied a pair of adoption papers, which had been denied for the upteenth time. After all, who could trust a cyborg and an omnic to raise a child?
