I'm new to tumblr and don't really know how to do these ask things but can i request more shippy interactions? i really like how you write them

Oh thanks!! You didn't really specify a ship so I'm just gonna go hodgepodge here :)

Zenyatta: Lúcio, I was delighted to hear omnicode on your most EP.

Lúcio: I've been listening to DJ Moog Phatty for a long time, it was an honor to finally collab with her!

Zenyatta: Indeed, and the lyrics leave quite an impression...

Lúcio: *short laugh* Uh, what do you mean? What lyrics?

Zenyatta: ...do you not know what she was saying?

Lúcio: I thought it was just, like... feedback beatboxing?

Zenyatta: *clearly embarrassed now* Oh... oh my....

Lúcio: Wait, what's she saying on the track!?

----

Mei: ...so if we have a liter of water and a liter of ice...

Zarya: *slowly* The water will weigh more... because... it is denser?

Mei: Right! The hydrogen bonds between the H20 molecules in a solid form create a larger space between them in a hexagonal formation! That's why ice floats, and that's also why snowflakes all have six sides or points! *pause* Sorry, I forgot what your original question was.

Zarya: ...I, too, have forgotten.

Mei: Sorry, sometimes I get excited and--uhm...

Zarya: It is fine. I like hearing you talk.

[If Symmetra has her Gardener skin equipped]

Pharah: Didn't take you for the type to get her hands dirty~.

Symmetra: You'll find I'm capable of many things.

Ana: I shouldn't be nanoboosting you all the time, Reinhardt. I don't know if your heart can take it.

Reinhardt: Ana, the one thing my heart couldn't take, is you nano-boosting another.

Ana: *scoff* Melodramatic old fool...

[During setup on Eichenwalde if Genji has his royal guard skin equipped and Mercy has her witch or mage skin equipped]

Genji: Be on the lookout, ma'am. There have been reports of fell witchcraft in the area. Evil sorcerers could be anywhere...

Mercy: Oh my! I'm so glad I have a strapping kingdom guard to protect me!

Symmarah nation it is our time to rise. Can’t believe they made our ship canon ngl

#pharah #overwatch #ow2 #symmetra #symmarah #pharametra #my Pharah still bi tho lol

[wildissylupus]

(im the last anon) i don't hate pharmercy either, i just wish they had done things better, not gonna lie i wish to see a f/f couple from the game but i want it to be the way we deserve, like the fandom has being asking for years, and they could do that but i dont feel like it's there yet ? and agree with what you said about pharah, and think she deserves better… i personally like her with symmetra, and also they could do like they did with tracer and give her a gf outside the game ? again no hate to the ship/shippers, i just want what fits better to lore and makes sense too!

Yeah again I do think the writers fumbled a bit with Pharmercy, they have had years to start pushing it, even if it was in a more subtle way, but they haven't. Either because executives said no or because the original writers never planned on making Pharmercy a thing outside of fandom.

With doing what they did with Tracer, I would like to see that but I think that would end the same way that all the other realationships with civilians ended. Cause Emily and Lena's realationship is very much the exception for Hero x Civilian in the Overwatch universe, not the rule. I went into detail on Angela's issues but Pharah has her own issues too, specifically she tends to put work above her personal life (like mother, like daughter-), which would lead to a relationship with a regular person a difficult task for her. Not only that but I think a lot of people would see them doing this with Pharah as a cop out? Especially if they do what they do with other civilian love interests and not give them much of a character (I am still upset about Martina), I don't think they could do that though because they have been updating the lore more and it's not just stuff that's happened in the past.

It's the reason I like sympharah and kiripharah, both ships are with someone who is similar enough to Pharah to know and deal with her issues and flaws, while also being different enough to not enable Pharah's more toxic behaviors. Like Pharah being a workaholic or not being able to see nuances of certain situations.

Also especially with kikipharah I think both ships would have more natural build up?

Sympharah, though they have never met in canon or have that many meaningful interactions in game, have a similar theme of identity. They also contrast each other in the way of Pharah being sure of her self while Symmetra has started to question herself and Vishkar, questioning her postition and identity. While Pharah would help with that I think Summetra would help Pharah with maintaining a heathy routine and structure.

Kiripharah, despite being the least popular of the two, has grounding due to their interactions in game. As I stated in my little explination of Kiripharah, I read this interaction;

As competitive flirting. Not only that but their other interactions already has them questioning each others morals and outlook (something we also saw with Sympharah in OW1 btw), despite them not meeting in canon yet we still have some kind of build up with them.

And the biggest thing for me with these ships, Pharah wouldn't have to wait. I'm fine with the trope of waiting until the time is right before starting a relationship, as long as it's mutual. What they've established with Pharmercy is just Pharah waiting for Mercy, something that I don't like specifically because of Pharah's lore.

With these two ships she wouldn't really have to wait, Kiriko gives me the vibe of someone who would be fairly open if she liked someone, and Symmetra, though she is struggling with her own identity, is a very upfront and straight forward person.

Again Pharah deserves better than to have to wait for both her family and her love life to sort out their issues before they have time for her. Waiting for her family is enough.

Fandom: Overwatch Ship: Symmarah Words: 448 Summary: A hunger no one, but a lover could satisfy.

A/N: Honestly, there’s no plot to this. This is just soft sm////ut that wouldn’t leave me alone until I’ve written it down.

Blizzard: OW will be doing its first Pride event this June! :)

Me: umm ok,

Jen Cohn: I think [fans wanting gay Ph@rah content] will be very happy soon :)

Me: huh, ok I guess that’s kinda c

Mercy in-game: I’ve got my eye on someone! You’ll find out soon enough! 😇

Me: oh god. Oh no

#NO ITS 2023 YOU CANT DO THIS #YOU MISSED YOUR CHANCE!! GO AWAY!! #let us poor Symmarah fans rest with the little bit of denial we were able to keep ourselves warm with over the long harsh years 😭 #I don’t Hate ph@rm3rcy it’s just #now?! seven years in?! #I was happy Lifew3aver opened the closet for more gay OW chars but I change my mind now. I want that twunk obliterated

[xenosagaepisodeone]

finding out that Pharah is confirmed gay 6 years after people begged Blizzard to confirm PharMercy SymMarah canon is like "what am I supposed to do with this information"

[robo-cryptid]

Taking Prompts

Ok, so this is not in any way a promise these will get filled, but one of the things I used to love about Tumblr was having prompts I could look at and choose to fill as sort of writing warmups. So I am tentatively saying yes, you can prompt me for short ficlets. Caveats apply:

I have so many YH fics already in the works that a prompt for them probably won't get much attention. Do not worry. That ship will get written anyway. I'd rather get stuff for ships I don't write as much, whether they're other OW ships or any of the other fandoms I'm usually reblogging (adding a quick list under a cut).

I'm trying to max out at, like, 500-word ficlets, so if it's too elaborate, I probably won't be able to fill it. It can be as short as you want though, including one word. It's hard to predict what's inspiring.

I don't think people usually submit prompts with the expectation I have to write them, but I do just wanna reiterate that taking prompts isn't a promise I can fill every single one of them. I'll do my best with what inspires me though!

Yes, they can be smutty prompts, lol.

Overwatch ships you're most likely to get traction with: Spiderbyte, Symmarah, Kiriko/Pharah, Kiriko/Sombra, Genciotiste (or Gencio, Bapcio, or Gentiste).

Other fandoms I'm digging right now:

A League of Their Own (esp Lupe/Jess but I will prob gleefully multiship)

Dragon Age: Absolution (Roland/Lacklon or Qwydion/Miri)

Disco Elysium (Harry/Kim)

tentatively, I will say OFMD (I especially love Jim/Oluwande, but again I could probably be talked into 90% of the possibilities on that show)

Hades (Thesterius or MegThanZag or... idk, try me???)

Wheel of Time (Siuaraine or again, idk, try me)

have you seen me reblog something that I'm forgetting here? It might be worth a shot, lol

Here's the askbox.

#robo writing #writing prompts

[odessastone]

Hey this is my Overwatch sideblog where I will mostly be reblogging art and maybe some funny posts. Occasionally making text posts or sharing stuff I found on Reddit or wherever.

My OW fics can all be found here!

My favorite characters are Symmetra, DVa, Sombra, Sigma, Moira, Brigitte, Pharah, and now Lifeweaver, but I more or less enjoy the entire cast, so there will be a wide variety of characters represented here. I’m also partial to Symweaver (going insane about them 24/7), Moicy, Symmarah, MekaMechanic, whatever McSombra’s called now lol (Colebra?), and McAshe/Cashe. There’s barely any new content for most of those anymore, but I may post about them occasionally.

Currently compiling all Invasion lore HERE!

[suhmayzooka]

sorry guys i hate overwatch and blizzard too but when i was 16 i LOVED symmarah so just let me have this pandering okay

[symmarah]

it's been 5 years, I hope you're ok 😭

im totally fine and doing great, just no longer an enthusiastic fan of overwatch. lost interest in the game/fandom a while ago and lost track of the state of the symmarah ship. regardless i really appreciate the check in! i hope all symmarah fans are having a good day 💕

[nitewrighter]

Can we get a few Wingman Zen interactions? I think satya might have been right that the watch point is full of… canoodling

Zenyatta: I wish to thank you, Cole.

Cassidy: Eh?

Zenyatta: Hanzo finding a place here at the Watchpoint has been very important to Genji, and to me as well. I sense Hanzo's distress and hardship has eased significantly thanks to your presence.

Cassidy: *rubbing the back of his neck* Well... y'know, probation duties and all that. Just happy to help.

Zenyatta: And if there were any other... hardships you wished to ease, I do not think he would be averse to it.

Cassidy: What?

Zenyatta: What?

----

Symmetra: *holding up two dresses* Keyhole neckline, or Grecian?

Zenyatta: *silence*

Symmetra: ...you're right. I should not be so insecure in my appearance and have faith that no matter what I wear, Fareeha will always think I'm beauti--

Zenyatta: Keyhole.

Symmetra: Ah.

----

Mercy: Tell me honestly--Did Genji ever talk about me or our letters during his time in the Shambali?

Zenyatta: He worried about you intensely during the Zurich explosion. Though those were difficult circumstances, I had the pleasure to learn much about you from him in that time.

Mercy: *softly* Oh...

Zenyatta: Also one time I watched him chase a bird for 45 minutes trying to get another feather to send you.

Mercy: *flatly* Oh.

----

Zenyatta: Are you so certain that violence is the only means to deal with Reyes?

Soldier 76: Thought you said you weren't a pacifist?

Zenyatta: I am not, but my time in the Shambali and in my travels has granted me surprising experience in couples' counseling.

Soldier 76: Oh for--

Zenyatta: I find that by grounding the discussion in 'I' statements, one can make significant--Oh you're walking away. That is fine. I will give you time to reflect on my suggestion.

Pharah/Symmetra/Junkrat's ship name is Chai Bomb

[wildissylupus]

do you have any first kiss hcs for ur fave ships ?

Sorry this took awhile-

Anyway, here you go;

Cashe

Very much heat of the moment thing

Neither of them expected it to happen, it just... happens-

Ashe initiates it

They are both messes afterwards

It most likely happens either during a fight, after a fight, or after one of them gets injured

There are most likely people around them when it happens

Bapssidy

It just happens casually and they both play it off in the moment but afterwards they're flustered messes

The same thing happens when they first say "I love you" to each other

That or they kiss before they even start dating as a "kiss the homies on the mouth" bit

Either way both of them have been in a fair few relationships by this point that their first kiss isn't that dramatic

...Unless it happens immediately after a confession spurred on by one of them getting hurt, they're both sobbing messes if that's the case.

Sympharah

Pharah just blurts out that she wants to kiss Sym one day while they're out on a walk

As much as Pharah is confident in herself she is not good at socializing, so it is a bit awkward, Sym finds it endearing though

However Pharah has the best luck and she asks in the most romantic spot on the walk trail their on,

Cassidy, Angela and Genji instantly figure it out after they get back and all three of them pester Pharah for details

RaptorFox

I feel like Kiriko would be big on PDA, not explicit stuff but she would defiantly jump up and kiss Pharah on the cheek

I think their first mouth-to-mouth kiss would be after one of them have been away for a mission for awhile, like they've been apart for months

Like Cashe I think it'd just happen as a spur of the moment kiss, specifically an "I missed you" kiss

Honestly I wish I could add more but these are the ships most often on my mind and even then I don't typically think about the stuff like "oh what would their first kiss be".

Fandom: Overwatch Ship: Symmarah Words: 1163 Summary:

 “Drinks will be on me.” He gave her a smirk. “Does that sound good?”

“You’re going to be regretting that.” A wide grin came over her face. “Let’s make things more fun, why don’t you pick my target?” She suggested, wanting to make this challenge a little bit more interesting.

A/N: Have another Symmarah fic because this fandom is lacking of them—a lot.

find the word tag! :)

tagged by @purgatorydotexe... technically? i mean, you said 'anyone who saw it' and i'm a someone, so... ^^" i hope it's okay that i joined in, even tho' i'm a fanfic writer and the meme was prolly meant for original works only. and i cheated with the words juuust a little 'cause i couldn't find some of them.

rule breaker 🤸 rule breaker 🤸

PICTURE - comes from a convin memory loss fanfic.

“You recognize him?” Connor taps one of the pictures with an index finger. He doesn’t wait for a reply, because he knows he’s not going to get one at this point, and when he continues, his voice is a little sharper this time: “It’s Carlos Ortiz. Stabbed, 28 times. And that–” (I AM ALIVE) “–was written on his wall in blood.”

→ Stress levels: 43%.

EERIE - comes from a symmarah wing!fic.

Watchpoint: Gibraltar feels suddenly looming and eerie around her, its steel buildings and massive empty dropship hanger and abandoned skywalks quiet with the absence of a thousand ghosts as the shadow of the communication tower stretches out over the courtyard behind her, cutting her shape into the shade.

SOUND - actually does come from an original work, it's from the backstory for one of my original characters!

Then, laughter—a sound like leaves rustling in cold winter tree branches and television static in another room and a woman and a man and a child all at once and a bell tolling and the cacophonic clash of metal against metal. It rattles around in the dark space behind their eyes like thoughts, but louder. Laurie scrubs the heel of their palm between their eyebrows.

STABLE - comes from a simarkus fanfic and i cheated big time with this one bUT I COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING ELSE.

Simon looks down at his hands. Then, after a moment, he hooks a finger beneath the elastic wristband of one of his gloves and pulls it off. The synthetic-skin overlay underneath is swimming, visibly unstable.

“You’ve never asked me how I ended up at Jericho.”

-

i don't have any writer friends other than Ren and @loverofbumblebees, i think. sooo, i'll also tag anyone who sees this and wants to do it. 💃
