Share smth you find interesting about the Junker/Australia lore in OW. Anything. Idk much about it other than it basically turned into Mad Max

Ok so I posted about this awhile ago and it was recently confirmed by Declassified but the Australian Omnium was seemingly made in aboriginal land, that being part of the reason why a lot of Australians didn't like the fact that the omnium was being given to the Omnics.

Another thing of note is that the area that was turned into a wasteland was Central Australia, though everywhere else was affected, specifically the cases of diseases increased because of the radiation. The only areas that were turned into the Mad Max wasteland we know was Central Australia, we even see Sydney in one of the comics!

Also in Declassified it's revealed that the person who ran SEP was a doctor from Australia. It's also been noted that both Sojourn and Angela have several charities and hospitals named after them because of their help after the Omium exploded.

Another thing I find interesting about the Australian characters, is the fact that I can tell where they're from just by their accent. Such as JQ is from Queensland and Junkrat and Roadhog are likely from NSW, it definitely wasn't intentional because Junkrat and Roadhogs voice actors are both American and they use the stereotypical accent.

Junkrat with an s/o who's missing an eye? And they tend to bump into walls, trip over their own feet and get lost very easy. Sometimes they see things that aren't really there.

Junkrat with an s/o who's missing an eye

He makes you soooo many cool looking eyepatches as gifts

He jokes about how you look like half of overwatch since many of them are also missing an eye

He's a bit unsteady with walking, so he also tends to run into things, so most times that you two go on walks, it's just you two bumbling around and laughing as you stop each other from falling over or running into things

With his terrible hand/eye coordination and you missing an eye, high fives are basically impossible but that won't stop him from trying

Secretly, he's been trying to figure out how to make a cybernetic eye for you so you can have two eyes again, but most test runs end with the prototype blowing up...

@alfajorconnoisseur TY! That is good to know!

I can actually explain the knowledge that it's hilariously, not that strange for it to happen!

Let's talk education in Junkertown for a minute bc I think between Junker Queen and Junkrat's dialogue we probably have something like the truth, found in the middle. ("that's a knock against the Junkertown Education system!" "We've got an education system?!") There is probably nothing you could point to and go 'that's an education system' from a colonial-European schooling mindset that would be recognised beyond themselves as having gone to 'school'. But there are children in Junkertown and parents who potentially have to leave for many hours a day, if not weeks, depending on who they are and what they do. Single parents and orphans as well, would also become common and ordinary. That means like any burgeoning community, there is a need for child care. Whiiiich given that shot of Odessa playing with the kids and them being in a group, yeah there seems to be something.

So then let's talk about potential Junker-population types. Saying that everyone is ex-military is probably very broad, this is a world-war situation for a country that was invaded and decimated, MOST people probably ended up signing up, so most people probably have military structure backgrounds, now. Of those, half of them might have been full-time military personal before the war (I say under only because again, most of the army was probably killed in the war), and many probably had jobs before that in civilian life in yes, dozens of fields. Which between potential military training structure, actual ex-teachers and child care workers, and people who just, you know, like working with kids there are enough people to form through either being told to do it, or volunteering, something of an early stages tutoring system to teach Junker children the basics of literacy, numeracy and practical survivor skills for their new world. (always remember education is relative to the society in which we live, and there is probably as much emphasis on reading and math, as there is on identifying finding water in the desert and so on).

So now we've got a baby Junker, ready to graduate Junker Primary School of Swearing and Knife Throwing and knowing enough English to read the "hazardous chemical, do not eat" sign and how to count their treasure effectively. They're now ready to graduate to join Junker Society with further education! Their childhoods probably end young, similar to pre-industrial societies, by 14-15, kids are probably expected to have their shit together and be providing for themselves.

This is where it probably completely dissolves past any 'classes' and becomes what you might roughly call apprenticeships. Whereas a young Junker gets roped into existing work their parents or elder siblings might be doing, or finds someone willing to let them hang around to teach them the ins and outs of certain skill sets they are already showing an aptitude for. There is time and interest in non-survival skills, of course, creativity is the baseline of humanity.

But what are the chances of a bright-eyed and bushy-tailed Jamieson Fawkes finding someone to teach him shit like bomb-making and periodic tables?

Funny that, not only is it possible but he has potential options!

Option 1: Sappers. Aka the most likely option. Otherwise known as Combat Engineers, or yes, Sappers as they are called in the Army (it's a term dating back to the 1700s from tunnel diggers in England during whatever war was happening this week, that has been kept since then), are highly specialised in well, a damn lot of things, but amongst them are construction (bridges, roads, fortifications, etc), demolition (of all those same things), and bomb placing and clearing. Their motto is informally here known as: First in, Last Out and they are incredibly important to any military, and especially ours.

As you can imagine, that's a lot of chemistry (periodic table knowledge, and yes, his bomb construction) and mathematics (zeno's paradox is a calculus problem that actually comes up in understanding bridge building n shit, apparently, source: my housemate is an engineer whose favourite math joke is about this paradox and the difference between engineers and mathematicians lmao, he also said, that once you are already in this field, it's actually not considered super advanced or anything, necessarily, to be taught specifically, but it's something that gets passed around to remember in the back, so it falls into 'general math nerd knowledge'). The Combat Engineers of the Australian Army is the fourth-ranked corp of the army, with 15 regiments and an entire dedicated school to it alone, called the School of Military Engineering. An entire separate education option JUST for the men and women in this field (it's not uncommon either, btw, many armies worldwide have it). Which, I just need to throw away a certain concept: getting into our military is actually really hard. They do not just accept any 18-year-old who has no idea what else to do with their life straight out of the gate. They want life experience on them, and a degree if possible.

In fact, they will pay for your university, if it's a military desirable education, in exchange for three years of service when you finish it. The reason why is basically that we do not have the numbers of other armies, so we best make every single member of the armed forces is damn good at what they do and is efficient and sensible about their job as possible. Also to be clear: I do not say this to glorify our armed forces or the things our armed forces have done and continue participating in, but to understand that we fundamentally treat it with a process of education mattering a great deal and prize knowledge whether it's life experience or university education and a high desire to work in a team, over brute strength glory. Bright-eyed 18-year-olds with nothing in their heads is not the preference in the modern day, and people that age with no further education plans can and will be turned away many times before acceptance into our military - most people I know that tried at that age got rejected three, four times before being accepted. So it's actually not impossible to find officers and commanders in our armed forces, across the board, with everything from bachelor degrees to full-blown PHDs in their fields. (I remember meeting a recruiter from the navy for instance, who was Captain of one of a ship, she - SHE, BTW - told us how everyone on the ship, from cook to captain, were trained in star navigation. That is, how to navigate without equipment, completely, just looking at the night sky, in the case of emergencies. )

And I'd say there is some merit to this. Blowing up a WHOLE OMNIC CORE that APPARENTLY HAS NUCLEAR POWER? Is actually not done easily. That requires an advanced understanding of nuclear reactors. Those things are obviously made HYPER STABLE, it's actually hard to just destabilize them unless a lot of things go wrong.

AND WHAT WAS ALF AND JUNKERTOWN FOUNDED BY? A bunch of veterans. The likelihood of running into one of these guys is pretty damn high given how many there are in the army, and oh, this is just the Sappers, who are Combat Ranks, there is a whole SEPERATE group for logistic support to the army, which does all this stuff in variation as well. So yeah. This is by far the most likely.

Option 2: Farmers. Wait, what? Yeah. Seriously. Outside of people who actually work in agriculture, they never realise how crucial chemical knowledge is to these guys. Not only is agricultural chemistry its own field, but there is also an everyday importance to it. For different reasons, of course. Pesticides, Herbicides, Fertilisers, Worming treatments and their effective application of them all can have serious consequences if it fucks up. If a farmer does it wrong, he can risk killing whole crops or all his livestock, and potentially his neighbours too, if he poisons the water in the process. Also yes, there is a hell of a lot of shit in everything I just mentioned, that can explode it stored improperly and cause fires. Or if it's mixed the wrong way. It only takes bleach and vinegar to make damn chlorine gas, and fertiliser is actually a key part of rudimentary bomb-making. Guess who often has a lot of that shit for various reasons? There is often a lot of mechanical knowledge needed as well on those huge pieces of equipment, from tractors to irrigation and yes, in turn, math is needed in high amounts. Then there is also, just because you're country, doesn't mean you don't have access to university, btw, we have what is called Agricultural College, or Agg College as we call it. They offer courses in yeah, Agricultural Chemistry, and Agricultural-needed Engineering. I've met as many cattle hands in the process of this education as not. Hell, fucking Mako might have hung around the same kind, before the war.

Option 3: Miners! As we've gone over, mining is a huge industry in Australia, and we have a lot of kinds! You know what you use in mining a lot??? EXPLOSIVES! Not to mention a hell of a lot of people that know certain elements on sight, to know what they're digging up. Not to mention, once again, ENGINEERING! Those tunnels need to be safe! Can't send people into them and have them collapse so once again we are needing maths and chemical knowledge of many kinds!

Option 4: this is the one I understand people will squint at but I am putting my foot down as an aussie, to say again: this place is our home that we like and as many non-military, non-country people, would fight and die for it just the same. Many university-educated in niche areas people would want to go out there and fight for that scrap of memory, even knowing the risks, as the people who used to live out there. From pub owners to PHDs in astrophysics. We are a modern, multicultural country, whose history dates back 60,000 years, we have a high rate of education, and many of those people would fight and resettle in that area. There would be a wide variance in reality of Junkertown that reflects modern Australia. Finding an advance teacher of calculus whose job it was that week to mind some kids? Not unlikely as it seems on paper. That he or she is a little bemused that this teenager will sit there and learn calculus theories from them? Must be nice to be able to talk about it again.

In reality, I think it's possible it's all four, in regards to Junkrat, assuming he's the same friendly bugger in childhood as he is now, and followed all sorts of people around, accumulating knowledge as he went.

I find it interesting that Moira isn't hostile towards Junkrat compared to most of the overwatch characters, I had thought she would look at him with disdain. I'm sure after that interaction that Roadhog would hate Moira with a passion

Oh absolutely, Roadhog would not like Moira. Specifically because she has the same belief system as Omnica, she wants the advancement of humanity, doing experiments that she can do without think about if she should do it. Which is something I think Roadhog would hate on principal, add that with Moira wanting to experiment of Junkrat and you have a whole issue.

As for Moira and Junkrat, I honestly never saw them hating each other. I honestly think they're very similar, just in different fields. Both of them love their respective fields with a passion, to the point where others find it concerning. Which leads them to be ostracized by their own communities. We also know that though Moira is confident, she doesn't really underestimate people, at least in the traditional sense. So doubt Moira looks at Junkrat and instantly sees an idiot.

Could i get a matchup for overwatch? Romantic please!! (Help I couldn't decide whether to do OW or Tf2 so I just went with OW)

Please avoid Soldier 76, Hanzo and Winston(he's a literal gorilla and I'm scared of them)

I'm pan with a preference for men! I use she/it/they and sometimes Neos! ENTP

I'm really bubbly, I make a lot of jokes about my past trauma and I get sad really quick when told the wrong thing, I have mood swings often and when pushed hard I can get aggressive, I have really big hyperfixations that can last months, and I'll often talk about it! (MY current one is space!!) And I often get happy talking to others about it!! I also have social anxiety so I can't interact well with people.Im also a hopeless romantic and give lots of affection!

In a partner I guess just someone who can keep up with my personality? A lot of people can't and it makes me sad. I guess someone who'd also willing to be very affectionate with me and is willing to relieve a ton of affection??

I like to stargaze, use my telescope, talk about space, I do art and I love love LOVE music!! I like to write fancy letters and draw maps!! I also like to cook and clean (mom material), oh and I like to dance sometimes!!

I'm chubby so maybe take into account if they'd hate crime me lol. Oh and I dress like El macho from despicable me but if he were a very fruity female. I also have a lot of stretch marks.

I like to draw on people's hands and bring people little shinys I find, (a lot of my friends call me crow or opossum)

That's all I think! Thank you do much!!

Overwatch matchup it is!

For Overwatch I think...

Junkrat!

For someone who can keep up with you Jamieson is perfect

He's pretty energetic and absolutely adores how bubbly you are

Just like you he makes jokes about his tramua and losing his arm and leg

If you suddenly are sad because someone said something you can see Junkrat slow down as he gives you a worried look trying to figure out what's wrong

As for giving affection you're receiving little bombs and daily hugs and cuddles from him

He'll happily accept all the affection you give him as well

He's definitely down to listen to you about your hyperfixtations and probably gets invested with you

He gets super excited when you give him shiny things (one of the canisters on his belt is filled with all the shiny things you gave him)

Also don't you dare feel insecure around him he couldn't care less about what you look like as long as he can cuddle with you

When you draw on his hands if you draw something he particularly likes he'll get it tattooed
