Characters (Outlanders)

Genji: Calm and collective. Will act like a dad and treat others how they treat him. Most of the time serious but can have fun with his group which he loves dearly. He’d do anything to keep them safe. Son of the Light God, Uncle Darkness. Willing to listen when someone is troubled, rarely shows tears/distraught but does smile and can have fun. Normally ends up overworking a lot of the time. Rarely yells.

Zander: Quiet and serious. Rage is hidden in his stoic expression, he is a ticking time bomb. Normally stays away from people, not showing emotions or cries. Actually mentally broken, can get protective over someone he loves but won’t show love. Nocturnal normally snaps at people and doesn’t listen to people, he listens to Genji sometimes. Doesn’t usually hang around with the group but just thinks about not being good enough. Can get pissed easily. Monotone voice. Nocturnal.

Sam: Curious Happy little bean and be nice to everyone. Was in a traumatic experience and is sorta over it. Youngest but is willing to talk to anyone by being friendly, rambles a lot. Smart, wanting to be a doctor when he’s older. Someone you would either call cute and they would deny it. Is a kitten as Zander said. Is also like a GPS

Aaron: He is friendly but serious when needed. Likes gaming with his best friend Ryan who likes to prank him quite a lot. When younger, they got separated when an attack came but got back after a few years and both wanted to be heroes when older. He will look after younger people like kids, likes being social. Adores Sam and has a good relationship with Genji. Has some memories of his ‘mother’.

Ryan: After the attack, he witnessed death and wasn’t gonna let that stand. He vowed to avenge the people in his hometown. He was definitely different after the attack because he was more distant from Aaron. He is serious but still caring. Zenyatta helps with his fear and anxiety. Somewhat like a father and definitely helps Genji when he leaves, actually knows how to cook.

Kazan: Pretty quiet and not social. Spends most of his time in the pool or at the ocean. He’s upset that he got kicked out of his home. He normally talks with Felix who normally is trying to take a nap. He likes doing anything in the water, fishing, and being an outdoor person. Ponders a lot with life. Swimmer/breathes underwater.

Felix: Nocturnal and trying to get into a normal sleep schedule. Most of the time trying to take a nap. Likes dark spaces but enjoys Kazan’s company. Normally will be in trees or in a beanbag. Curious, second youngest. Tries to be serious but ultimately fails, especially if it’s with Kazan. Very smart and has a high IQ. Get’s distracted easily and mostly quiet.

So are the outlanders the characters based on alternate Genji skins, or are they their own original characters? And if they are based on the skins, which outlander is which skin?

They are based on skins or to me it’s their armor which is the skin or depending which character; their from.

Genji = his Cyborg Skin as his armor, otherwise just human with cyborg arm

Zander= his armor is  the Oni skin but Oni is different personality from him/form (demon)

Sam = Nomad skin as his armor

Ryan = Sentai Skin as armor

Aaron = Baihu skin as armor

Kazan = Atlantic Skin as his other form

Felix = Karasu tengu skin as his other form

Sorry this is confusing, it only gets worse ._. (Hopefully you’ll understand)

I love Overwatch au’s so I thought I’d try it, and all I got right now is rough concept art but honestly, Genji and Reaper look awesome!  The detail of a piece of Hanzo’s ribbon is the only substantial amount of story behind this but I don’t mind.  I thought Genji would be a lost soul in this au, thus this duo with Reaper Reyes, and the showdown in Hanamura in the dragon’s animatic is where he got the ribbon tear.  Except it went different from the original animatic, Genji was actually going to kill Hanzo, had not finally had a uphoria while holding his sword to Hanzo’s throat.  He probably took a piece of the ribbon instead, I’d like to think he said,

“Try not to drown yourself brother, we still have a rematch another time.  Until then...”

Then he just casually goes and cuts it and disappear like in the animatic.  Anyway, more coming soon, along with some fun stuff, probably a bunch of Genji messing around while Reaper has to deal with it.

Overwatch Academy: Prologue

Description:Overwatch Academy is the most prestigious school in the world. Gifted teens from across the globe attend the school. It takes the unique talents of teens and teaches them how to use it in a war effort for the greater good 

 Amelie's POV (widowmaker) I wake up to a bright light. I blink to get my vision back. I look around, and see a girl no older than me with blonde hair and blue eyes checking a monitor. I see a monkey? Talking to her. I start coughing and the girl immediately rushed to me with water. I took it gladly, but I stop when I see the skin on my hand."I-I'm blue!" I gasp."Please calm down Ms. Lacroix! We'll explain everything later!" The blonde tried to assure me. I sigh and sip my water. I look around the room, to see it's a medbay and I'm the only 'injured' one here."Uhm, I'm feeling better... Can you finally tell me what is going on?"I question, just wanting answers."Well Ms. Lacroix, you were attending Talon School for the Gifted. A long while Talon has been suspected of doing unmentionable experiments on students, to make them high performance criminals for their terrorist organization. When there was enough proof to invade the school that's what we did. You were a sniper, they had brainwashed you to be so, but during the battle between the government and Talon you hit your head pretty hard and it reversed the brainwashing. As for your skin Talon seemed to have slowed down your heart beat to the point where your skin can no longer keep it's pinkness, and there is nothing we can do about it. I am very sorry Ms. Lacroix."The Monkey explained.  It was a lot to take in, but slowly I'm remembering everything. The battle, and when some guy pushed me into a wall before I could shoot him, and then someone coming to my aid once I realized I'm not who I thought I was."Wait...Where am I?"I interrogated. The blonde smiled warmly."You are at Overwatch Academy, and if it's alright with you, we would like you to attend here. We have read your file and it seems that you are talented in combat, academics, and dance. Overwatch would love to have you as an addition!"She happily replied."I guess, I have no where else to go..."I said."Super! You should get some rest, we'll have someone come get you in the morning!"Blondie and Monkey closed the door after turning off the lights and left me to rest. 

 Angela's POV(mercy) What a shame that poor girl had to be turned into what she is."Good night Mr. Winston I'll see you later!"I smiled at the ape. He nodded and we went our separate ways. I started my way towards the boys dormitory to go visit my boyfriend Jack. I swiftly came up to his room and knocked. The door was answered seconds later by his roommate and best friend Gabriel. He didn't say a word and just let me in. I'm here almost all the time. It's funny how clean their room is, Jack once told me that Gabriel is the biggest clean freak on the planet. I walk over to Jack who was sitting at his desk working on homework. The two boys were very hard working, both hoping to be a part of the Overwatch International Defense Project. I already got a reserved spot there as head medical because apparently I'm a genius in that, but I just really love helping people. I pull Jack's chair out a little, just so there's enough room to plop down right on his lap. He seems startled by this, but immediately starts smiling. He wraps his arms around me and pulls me close."For a second there I  thought it was Gabe, and I about had a heart attack!"He laughs. After that comment there was a shout from Gabriel."Oh Jacky-poo you wish it was me!". I giggle as he says Jacky-poo."Hmmm, Jack Reyes or Gabriel Morrison? Which do you like better?"I ask Jack. He gives his charming little laugh and tickles me giving sweet little kisses to my neck as Gabriel makes noises to let us know that this is unpleasant to watch. 

 Gabriel's POV(reaper) "Dios mio! I'm gonna go for a walk, you two are the most sickening people on the planet."I complain grabbing my hoodie and shoes before walking out of the room. As I walk down the hall some freshmen are staring at me, but as soon as I give the group a glance they look the other way. I scoff at them, everyone at this school thinks I'm this intimidating bad boy, but really I just stand my ground. All the girls always want to be mine, but I could care less about them. I finally make it outside to the large courtyard where I go to the large red wood in the corner. I sit down and pull out my phone, quietly playing games on it. I was about to get 1st on the leaderboard in slither.io when someone slapped my phone out of my hand."What the fuck?"I rage."Ah, Gabriel! Fancy seeing you here!" Gerard muses."What do you want?"I seethed. His answer was a grand ole' punch to the face...Literally."Wrong move amigo."I snarled. I push him too the ground and straddled him pounding his face in with my fists. I got off him once I was sure there would be enough bruises to get my point across. He had a terrified look on his face."You look like you've seen a ghost."I taunted."No, but he did see his vice-principal."A strong woman's voice came through. I recognized it as Ms. Amari's. I'm done for, now."You two my office now!"She barked. I sigh and look down the whole entire walk there. We ended up in her office, me and Gerard sitting next each other facing her."I've made you two do public service, Saturday school for a year, and detention all throughout Freshman year! I have no choice, but to force you two to be friends."She pauses."There is a new student at our school, she is one of the people we rescued from Talon. You two will show her the ropes for a few months together. And when I deem you two to be at least tolerable with each other, then I will let you go your separate ways." She finishes her lecture and hands us notes telling where and when we will meet the new girl. I storm out of the room not looking forward to having to hangout with Gerard and some newbie for a month. I walk into my dorm to see the two blondes curled up in Jack's bed. I cringe as I see Jack stir. He looks at me with questioning asking 'where have you been?' I mouth to him 'I'll tell you in the morning.' He nods and shuts his eyes, his head resuming to the spot it had in the crook of Ang's neck. I shed my hoodie and my pants and hop into my bed, drifting into a dreamless sleep. 

 Jamison's POV(junkrat) "So, mate. Who do you think we should prank next?"I was already planning my next prank. Ice water above someones door. They walk out, and it dumps all over them, Mako records it and bada bing bada BOOM, everyone has a laugh and we all become friends in the end!"I heard there is a new girl..."Mako quietly suggests."PERFECT! Just a matter of time!"I shout. 

Satya's POV(symmetra) "Fareeha, must we stay up so late?"I groan, Fareeha is making us sit outside until midnight to make sure there is no funny business or whatever."Just 5 more minutes, love."She says, not even glancing my way. I sigh and rest my head on her shoulder. That's when we see McCowboy and Hanzit. I feel Fareeha stiffen, I remove my head from her shoulder and she stands up. "Cowboy! What are you doing?"She yells at him. "Nuthin' of your concern, doll."He replies back. I suddenly feel territorial over Fareeha. How dare does that disgusting little cowboy endear my Fareeha. I walk up to him with a glare."She asked you a question, you better answer it..Doll."I say lowly. Hanzit tugs on Cowbitch's arm as if to say 'do what she says'."And if I don't?"He pushes. That's it. I raise my hand and plant a nice hard slap to his cheek."That."I answer simply, dusting off my hands and walking back to Fareeha."Okay, we were trying to go to the vending machines at the girls dorms, cause guys don't have the pleasure of rainbow goldfish in their's."He surrenders."Get back to your dorm you two and I won't tell my mother." They nod walking back. Fareeha and I go back to our dorm finally, so I can get my beauty sleep.

Chapter 1(part 1):New Places, New Faces

 Amelie's POV 

 I got woken up around 6:30 am, by the blonde from yesterday."Good Morning! I brought you your  schedule, and some clothes you can borrow!"She says happily. I nod groggily. She helpsz me out of bed and shoves me the clothes."I can only hope we're the same bra size."She smiles. I walk into the small bathroom in the medbay. I shut the door and lock it. I dress in the clothes she gave me. She gave me a short high waist black skirt, a tight purple t-shirt, a clean pair of deep blue, underwear, a matching bra to top it off, and a pair of black flats. All surprisingly fit comfortably. My hair is down, so I'll have to ask her for a hair tie. Overall I look pretty good, even if I look like a blueberry.  I walk out to see her talking with a guy. He has dark chocolate skin, and curly hair. He wears a black hoodie, black jeans, and black converse."May I have a hair tie?"I requested."Of course!"She chuckled. She pulled one off her wrist and handed it to me."Thanks...uhm"I mumbled the last part not knowing what her name is."Oh my, I never told you my name! I'm Angela!"Angela quipped out. I nod in acknowledgement to her statement. I look over at the guy that was in the room."Oh yeah, that's Gabri-"She was cut off by the guy."I can introduce my self. I'm Gabriel Reyes, and I'll be one of your guides here."He let out what I believe to be a growl at the last part."Oh okay. I'm Amelie Lacoix."I introduce myself. I held out my hand for him to shake and he takes it giving it light shake. Then someone bursts through the door."Sorry I'm late, I had to fix my hair."The guy grins. He wore a grey shirt, blue jeans, and the most revolting lime Nike sneakers. His accent was French, and I wonder how one of my own be a thing like that."Uh...Bonjour, I'm Amelie..."I introduce myself, sticking my hand out for him to shake."Ahhh, Bonjour je'ampelle Gerard."he introduces himself in French and takes my hand lightly in his own, planting a kiss on it. I make a face of disgust and pull my hand away rather quickly."Vas te faire encule , la con dégoûtant."I spit out venom at him. That was the 1st most disgusting thing that's ever happened to me, what a creep."Oh, mon cher. Vous me aimez assez tôt."He chided, those words sent the unpleasant kind of shivers down my spine. The tension is so thick you can cut it with a knife."Oooooookay then. I have to head out, you two play nice. I don't want to hear about Amelie being harassed during a fight."Angela chirps uncomfortably and struts out. 

 ////|-|\\\\ 

The two boys and I are walking silently to homeroom, I feel eyes on me everywhere I go. Gabriel leads me up to the teacher, who is the monkey from before."Oh, Mr. Reyes. How can I help you?"The monkey asks."Hey Mr. Winston. The new chica, is here and we need to know where she sits."Gabriel explains."She sits next Jamison."Mr. Winston replies."Aw, guess we won't be sitting together mon amour."Gerard winks. I just roll my eyes."Luckily you'll be sitting at my table."Gabriel added. I nod and follow Gabriel to a table in the back. Two boys are sitting there already. One lanky looking one with spiky blonde hair and punky type outfit on, and across from him is fluffy boy with white hair in an undercut that's pulled back in a ponytail in a sweater with a pig on it. Gabriel sits down next to fluffy, and I sit down next to spiky."Good'ay mate! I'm Jamison Fawkes, but you can just call me Jamie. The big guy right there is my boyfriend Mako Rutledge!"Spiky or Jamie boasts in an introduction."I'm Amelie."I mutter."Pleased to meet ya! So Amelie, who ya gonna sit with at lunch? Gabi, Mako, and I have this great place outside we hang out at during lunch, you should sit with us, cause you seem cool! So who's your host? Is it Gabi? Has he shown you your dorm? Have you gotten a dormie-"Jamison's rambling ended when Gabriel told him to shut up."I think I'll take you up on that offer of sitting with you at lunch."I mused, this Jamison is pretty entertaining."Or. You can sit with me!"A voice butted in next to me. I internally groan, I see everyone at our table's moods go down."What do you Retard?"I snarled."The names Gerard, mon amour~! And what I want is you! Why hang out with the imbeciles when you can hang out with moi?"He was determined set me off."I think she got your name right the first time."Mako butted in quietly."What did you say fatty?"Gerard teases. I furrow my brows. This man has a complete lack of human respect. I looked at Mako who was looking down at his thumbs. Jamie looked like he was about to explode. Before Jamie could say something, I took this opportunity."If I have lunch with you, will you leave them alone?"I even cringed at my offer, but I can't stand bullies. Gerard had slimy little smirk that made me want to punch him so hard in the dick."Oui I'll leave them alone. See you later,mon amour!" He sang as he walked away."You didn't just..."Gabriel looked at me wide eyed."I can't stand people who act like that, but if he's bullying people I'll stop it at any cost."I stated."Sheila, your putting yourself through hell for Mako...CONSIDER US BEST FRIENDS!"Jamie yelled hugging me. I let out a small giggle. 

 ////|-|\\\\  

I've done my first 4 periods and now it's lunch. I'm following Retard to the lunchroom. I get in line and get my food. I get a salad with bleu cheese dressing, apple slices, and chocolate milk. When I get to the cashier, I pull out my schedule to be scanned, but Retard beats me to it and pays for it."I could've bought it myself."I huff."I don't get a merci?"He asks as I follow him to a table in the middle of the room. He sits down and unfortunately I sit next to him. I look around the table and see the rest of them are boys."Wow Gee, I didn't know you liked blueberries that much!"One laughs. The others start to snicker."Hey now, she's my girlfriend. So don't be mean."He chuckled. My eyebrows crease, and my eye starts to twitch."G-Girlfriend?"I seethe. He places his dirty paw on my thigh and leans over and whispers in my ear."We wouldn't want anything unfortunate to happen to your friends, right? Oh what a tragedy it would be if their new friend betrayed them."Gerard hisses. I nod, and start picking at my food. Glad I didn't pay for it myself."Yeah, her skin is from a rare condition. It's pretty boring."Gerard discussed. Him and his friends were chatting away while I was quiet and played with my food."Isn't that right babe?"Gerard asks."Hm?"I hum in confusion. He sighed, and smack my arm quite hard, if I didn't know better his dead body would have been on the table in 3 seconds."We asked you a question, dumbass. What's your talent?"Gerard scoffed."I'm skilled in ballet, and combat..."I mumbled."So that means your flexible?"One of them catcalls."Why don't you come over here and see?"I grin. He walks over and I stand up in front of him I grab my chocolate milk and pour it on his head.  He grabs my salad and dumps dressing and all on top of me, soon enough the entire tables in a food fight.

 Anyways, this leads other tables to join, I pick up a sandwich and throw it at the cheerleader who just threw a bowl of spaghetti at me when it hits someone who recognize to be the vice-principal. The room turns deathly silent as some turkey from the sandwich slides off her face."Who threw it."She asked. As someone who owns up to everything, I'll have to own up to this one."Me."I admit in a solemn tone. She stomps over to me and grabs my arm and drags me out to the hallway."I want a story now. Tell me the truth and your punishment wont get worse."She ordered, I nod."I was sitting with Gerard and they asked me what my talents were, and I told them ballet and combat. One of them proceeded to catcall me and as out of anger I poured chocolate milk on his head and accidentally started a food fight."I described the whole scene."You are off the hook. Go to your dorm and clean up."She decides after a minute."Merci-beaucoup madame, but why?"I inquired."Boys will act like dogs, if they do not learn their lesson they will never learn at all."She concludes our chat. I head to my dorm, I was shown my dorm before school. My roommate is a brit named Lena. Angela had some clothing she bought online brought to my room, so I wouldn't go naked for the time between now and when I go shopping.

 ////|-|\\\\ 

 I've been hanging in my dorm with Lena, after going to my last to classes. She grabs her guitar and walks out saying she's gonna go play in the courtyard and get some fresh air. I nod, and return to my book that I need to catch up on for English. 

 A/N:Sorry everything is so run on. I just had a blast of inspiration today and sat myself down and wrote for about an hour or two. I'll try and post chapters often. My motto is "Don't release a chapter until you've started the next, or else you'll lose interest, ideas, and time and you'll get hella lazy." So I hope you all are liking the story! Cause I love writing this! Thanks for the love!

Overwatch Hollywood!AU Character Headcanons

Between a crucifix and the Hollywood sign We decided to get hurt Now there’s a few things we have to burn Set our hearts ablaze And every city was a gift And every skyline was like a kiss upon the lips And I was making you a wish in every skyline...

"How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful", Florence + The Machine

Jesse McCree

Actor

Was a stripper in his early twenties working in a seedy strip club called Deadlock and was discovered by talent agent Gabriel Reyes.

Started out with minor but distinctive supporting roles in action-adventure shows on cable TV. You know, the kind where graphic violence, gore, nudity, sex, and drug use was totally necessary for the show’s narrative. Enjoy finding those delicious episodes where Jesse’s big dick was in full glorious view *wink wink*

Overcame the near-impossible transition from TV to the big screen when he turned 28 thanks to Gabriel’s patient guidance and hard selling to the major studios.

Landed his first leading role in a tentpole sci-fi/western blockbuster production by S76 Films called “High Noon” where he played a sharpshooting space cowboy with a cybernetic left arm.

Made the Hollywood and global celebrity A-list when his subsequent summer release films became certified box office winners. Also, you can expect to find any red carpet world premiere of Jesse’s movies filled to bursting with hundreds of hysterical screaming fans all clamoring to get precious photo-ops with him. And it doesn’t need to be said that a large majority of his fan base happens to be women and gay men because hello, have you seen him?!

With a name like Jesse McCree, his rugged good looks, and his undeniably alluring charm, he was obviously destined to be a major international film star with a massive fan following. It helped that Jesse is quite active on social media and always makes an effort to constantly thank all his fans for their loyalty and unwavering support via his goofy selfies and short video clips.

He definitely became a global household name when he landed that iconic perfume ad campaign for Dolce & Gabbana where he wore bleach-blonde hair that really divided his rabid fan base nothing but tight red swimming trunks that definitively proved McCree was indeed carrying a massive weapon of sexual destruction.

Oh, and there was also that deliciously sinful and borderline controversial Calvin Klein commercial where McCree was dancing (man, his stripping background really helped) to seductive music by world-renowned musician, DJ, and film composer Lúcio CDS, clad only in denim jeans, and removed it at the end to reveal that he went commando underneath and the audience got an uncensored glimpse of his naked bubble butt.

Talked out of joining the DC Extended Universe by Gabriel and pushed him instead to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Needless to say, the decision proved to be a highly successful one.

Decided to diversify his acting range and insisted on auditioning for arthouse and indie film projects by the time he was 37 as he was sick and tired of hearing all of the passive-aggressive comments and cutting remarks from film critics (most notably from Moira O’Deorain) and his fellow peers in the industry (cough*Amélie Lacroix*cough) that he doesn’t have what it takes to be a serious dramatic actor because of his extensive blockbuster movie repertoire. That, and he agreed with Gabriel’s sage advice that he shouldn’t turn into one of those aging movie stars who still do paycheck roles in action movies as a desperate attempt to remain relevant. You know which ones he’s referring to.

Earned the game-changing role of a lifetime by starring in an indie drama written by Hanzo Shimada where McCree played a closeted gay amputee military veteran suffering from PTSD after winning an extensive audition process where he was up against many other serious and big-name dramatic actors.

McCree’s heart swooned when he read the script for the film that would change his career path forever and totally made a complete yet adorable fool of himself fell instantly in love when he met the man who wrote such a powerful screenplay.

Jesse made the conscious decision to portray his character without his natural Southern accent and went as far as undergoing intensive lessons with a dialect coach to ensure that he would sound completely different with the role that Hanzo had beautifully written.

An incurable romantic who is prone to grand gestures, McCree publicly declared his love for Hanzo in his speech that went insanely viral when he took the stage at the Dolby Theatre to accept his Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role. That, and he was quite possibly the very first Oscar winner to receive the award wearing a traditional tuxedo accessorized with—of all things—a beat-up cowboy hat and an oversized gold belt buckle embossed with the acronym “BAMF”, both of which he kept and saved from his days as a Deadlock stripper.

Secretly gets pleased every time trailers for his films after his first Oscar win now advertise him as “Academy Award winner Jesse McCree”, although he takes careful measures not to let his enthusiasm about this fact show too much and tries to pass it off as no big deal.

Hanzo Shimada

Screenwriter

Came from a prestigious and high-profile entertainment dynasty from Japan where his father, Sojiro Shimada, is a wealthy and influential film distribution mogul.

Defied his father’s wishes when he refused to take over the reins of the family business and decided to become a screenwriter.

Forced into exile and blacklisted by his own family within the Japanese entertainment industry because of his career decision, Hanzo moved to the United States where he reunited with his younger brother Genji Shimada, who now lives and works in Los Angeles as a highly popular comedian.

Took an intensive screenwriting course in UCLA where he graduated with an MFA degree at the top of his class.

His very first dramatic screenplay—the year after he graduated from UCLA—about two estranged brothers who reunite following the death of their imperious and domineering father quickly made the Hollywood Black List, an annual industry survey of the most well-liked unproduced film scripts.

Landed his first major writing job on Netflix as part of a core team of writers for a big-budget, fully-animated, and totally R-rated adaptation of Saga by Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples, of which Hanzo is a hardcore fan of the original source material.

Won his first Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series thanks to the season one finale episode of Saga, where Hanzo took sole writing credit and coincidentally, also making Emmy history as the first win in this category going to an animated TV series.

While working on his Netflix gig, Hanzo developed a film screenplay about a dysfunctional family of misfits and social outcasts that caught the attention of hotshot producer Jack Morrison and acclaimed director Ana Amari.

His first official feature film credit garnered massive attention and critical praise from the international press when the finished product produced by Jack and directed by Ana debuted at the Cannes Film Festival and Hanzo took home the Prix du Scénario (Best Screenplay Award).

Was quickly besieged with collaboration offers from all the top directors around the world to write the screenplay for their upcoming film projects after his big splash at Cannes, but made the conscious decision to write his next screenplay while continuing his well-paying Netflix gig.

Churned out his second film screenplay that would turn out to be the life-changing catalyst which would eventually lead him to cross paths with one Jesse McCree, whose career he’s been secretly following since the latter’s meteoric ascent into the Hollywood A-List.

Was featured in an in-depth profile piece on Vanity Fair’s annual Hollywood Issue where Hanzo talked about his passion for writing, his creative process, his enduring fascination with nerd and geek culture, his hidden talent of archery and martial arts, as well as a candid discussion on his severed ties with his family legacy back in Japan.

Collaborated once again with Jack and Ana to film his second screenplay with Jesse in the lead role where one thing led to another with McCree during the production process and whoops, would you look at that? Salacious rumors between Jesse and Hanzo swirling about in the entertainment news industry thanks to an alleged leaked sex tape hazy paparazzi photos from TMZ.

Won the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay the same night Jesse won for Best Actor in a Leading Role, although Hanzo’s speech was more formal and restrained yet still gave off blatant overtures as to his relationship with a certain A-List movie star. He did, however, remember to give Genji a huge shoutout that smug green-haired little shit during his acceptance speech and also gave out what is perhaps the classiest fuck-you to his father as he proudly clutched the Oscar statuette in his hands.

“McHanzo” becomes the newly anointed Hollywood power couple post-Oscar season—complete with virally trending hashtag—and Hanzo finds it adorable that his boyfriend tries so hard not to make a big deal out of it whenever he sees posters and trailers of his films now billing him as “Academy Award winner Jesse McCree”.

Gabriel Reyes

Talent agent

Born and raised in Los Angeles, he had previously worked as a security specialist for high-profile celebrity clients before discovering that he had an uncanny knack for spotting talents that he considered as “diamonds in the rough”.

Quit his job in security and decided to open his own talent agency—Blackwatch Artist Management (BAM)—where he was responsible for discovering many successful and highly talented people over the years, ranging from actors and models to musicians and athletes.

As his client base steadily grew, so too did Gabriel’s reputation rise in the industry, to the point where he has become the go-to person for every rising or established celebrity to handle their personal and professional affairs.

Very selective with the people he chooses to sign onto his agency, as Gabriel isn’t swayed with a perfect body or pretty face, but judges a person based primarily on the strength of their talents, their personality, and their capacity to handle the pressures of celebrity life.

Was offered several times in the past by talent scouts and casting directors to try his hand at acting because of his smoldering good looks and intense physical presence, but Gabriel turned them all down since he absolutely hated the idea of living his most of his life in front of the cameras.

Another strong reason why he prefers to have a Hollywood career behind the scenes is because he has a huge roster of talents to deal with, and some of them have egos and diva attitudes that he’s more than happy to cut down to size if they don’t get their shit together.

Earned the industry nickname as “The Reaper” because he has a vicious reputation of dropping talents from his agency if they so much as make unforgivable public faux pas such as showing support for undesirable presidential candidates, making a humiliating spectacle of themselves by getting wasted in nightclubs and footage of them vomiting in a back alley gets viral on the internet, or worse: sex scandals or crimes with undeniable evidence against the accused celebrity.

His status as The Reaper is so feared that once a former talent of Gabriel Reyes is dropped, that person can kiss their career in Hollywood goodbye since Gabriel’s dismissal is considered an automatic industry blacklist and no other talent agency—West and East Coast—will take them on.

And oh yes, God help those producers, directors, and casting agents who so much as try to create sleazy casting couch situations for a prized talent managed by Gabriel Reyes. No one fucks with those under the watchful eye of The Reaper and gets away with it.

Considers his discovery of Jesse McCree as his proudest professional achievement, even though he doesn’t say it out loud to the man in question and the circumstances as to how he discovered McCree is rather salacious to those who don’t know the real story.

The Reaper is never seen in public without his trusty black beanie or knit cap. No matter the occasion, whether he is a casual meeting with industry executives in his office or making formal red carpet appearances to show support for his talents, Gabriel Reyes will always be seen wearing his beanie covering his head.

Has a long and frustratingly complicated history—both professional and romantic—with Jack Morrison that the entertainment news media often revisits their “are-they-or-aren’t-they?” relationship whenever there is a quiet entertainment news cycle without any sex scandal, pregnancy/birth announcement, engagement revelation, public/secret wedding exclusives, or major celebrity couple breakup in sight.

Likes to take his coffee black with extra shots of espresso because he’s so edgy and will have no compunction chewing out his assistants if his caffeine fix contains so much as a hint of cream, sugar, or anything that might ruin the sharp bitterness he really craves.

Once had a huge falling out with Jack for reasons that will forever remain mysteriously undisclosed to the public and the industry at large that he absolutely refused to have any of his high-profile and bankable talents—Jesse included—to star in any project produced or financed by Morrison. It is generally believed and accepted by everyone that they were back in good terms when Jesse snagged the award-winning lead role in the indie drama film written by Hanzo Shimada and directed by Ana Amari.

Jack Morrison

Film producer

Originally from rural Indiana but moved to Los Angeles when he turned 19 in the hopes of breaking into Hollywood as an actor.

Worked several jobs upon arriving in L.A.—waiter, dishwasher, bike messenger, dog walker, and of course, barista/bartender—while unsuccessfully trying out for open castings and auditions, and it was also around this time that Jack met Gabriel Reyes, who was around the same age as him and was, at the time, working as a junior assistant at a security firm.

Ended up being roommates with Gabriel not long after their initial encounter where the two men eventually consummated their relationship. Despite their intense and powerful attraction to one another, Jack’s ambitions to become a famous movie star clashed terribly with Gabriel’s desire to live a more private life and work behind the scenes.

Got his big break when he was discovered by legendary casting director Winston—yes, mononymous style like Madonna because he’s fucking amazing like that—when Jack was spotted by the intimidating-looking yet friendly agent while delivering a package to his office. Needless to say, when Jack told Gabriel the good news, it didn’t end so well with the two and Jack bitterly moved out of Gabriel’s apartment.

With his All-American movie star good looks and fantastic physique—like have you seen those stunning blue eyes, that perfect blond hair, and his amazing bone structure?!—Jack’s gradual rise to stardom was greeted with critical praise from audiences and industry pundits as he was able to showcase an incredible versatile range with his acting as he starred in literally everything from uproarious whip-smart comedies (”Too Much Future”) and unnerving psychological horror flicks (”Black Harvest”) to crowd-pleasing popcorn summer blockbusters (”Strike Commander”) and gut-wrenching film-festival-worthy indie dramas (”Dancing in Nowhere”).

Despite the overwhelming fame and fortune Jack amassed over the years, his love for Gabriel never faded and he often crossed paths with him when Gabriel ultimately found his true calling as a powerful talent agent. Needless to say, the two men eventually found themselves in a twisted, years-long, on-and-off relationship complicated by the fact that Jack never formally came out to the public with his sexuality.

His transition from actor to producer was because of a near fatal accident when Jack experienced a car crash during his mid-40s that left scars on his handsome face. Using the harrowing tragedy as a wake-up call, Jack made the conscious decision to switch careers and started his own production company called S76 Films—a reference to one of his most famous characters that he portrayed called Soldier: 76.

Since he was smart to save and invest all the money he earned from his movies, Jack was able to recover quickly from the accident and had more than enough resources to fund his new job as a film producer. However, he chose not to undergo cosmetic surgery and decided to keep his facial scars as a reminder to always keep himself grounded in a ruthless business that only favors everything shiny and new.

His previous success as an actor also translated to his new role in the business as a producer, and Jack was hailed as one of Hollywood’s greatest comeback stories. With a keen eye for spotting well-written scripts and pairing them with the right directors, Jack’s stellar reputation as a producer made him a valuable commodity for everyone who wanted their quality passion projects realized.

Even before his unfortunate accident, Jack had already took to the habit of wearing shades or sunglasses for his public appearances—his signature favorite being the L’Incognito by Maison Martin Margiela where he owns several vintage pairs—for the reason that he really hates being blinded by camera flashes. Thus, there is never a photo of Jack in public where his piercing blue eyes can be seen.

Absolutely detests drinking his coffee without any cream and sugar mixed in, preferably in copious amounts. Jack’s coterie of assistants are fully trained to memorize his exact coffee order the way he likes it or else he gets into these scary rages that could rival that of Gabriel Reyes on a bad day.

Behind closed doors, he finally reconciled with Gabriel when Jesse McCree headlined the film project written by Hanzo Shimada and directed by Ana Amari. Of course, the rest of the world doesn’t need to know about that since the Great Hollywood Ballad of Jack and Gabe was absolutely none of their fucking business.

Oh, and it helped that Jack was more than happy to oblige Gabriel when he suggested what he was going to do with Jack’s Academy Award for Best Picture. Spoiler alert: it’s exactly what you think it is.

Author’s Notes:

Hey, guys! I’ve been quietly lurking around in the Overwatch fandom for a long while now and this is my first attempt at sharing some of my headcanons for two of my favorite OW ships, McHanzo and Reaper76. TBH, I don’t yet have the guts to really flesh out this particular idea into a full-length multi-chapter fic of my own, but if any interested writer in the fandom out there finds/reads this and wants to make it happen, then by all means, use this as a prompt and I give you my full blessing and support, as well as my beta/editing services!

I actually also made ideas for the other characters in Overwatch based on this Hollywood!AU idea I envisioned, but I thought it would be too long to post everything in one text post. However, if anyone is interested in knowing what the other OW characters do in this alternate universe (i.e. the professions/personal tidbits of Angela Ziegler, Genji Shimada, Lena Oxton, Reinhardt Wilhelm, etc.), then don’t hesitate to send me an ask and I’ll post them here for you guys to check out! Also: if you want to know more about what life is like for Hollywood!AU McHanzo and Reaper76 (i.e. who cooks, who pays for dinner, who’s the big spoon/little spoon, etc.), then feel free to send those asks to me as well!

Hope you guys enjoyed this one, and cheers! :)

:^) she big

i already have some silly ideas for this AU !! like, each one of the support heroes would be a different type of medical professional:

Mercy would be the head of surgery and maybe the CEO of the hospital (instead of field medic, and she would still be a nanobiologist)

Lúcio would be a otolaryngologist or a music therapist (duh)

Zenyatta would be a psychiatrist (a funny option for him would be ambulance driver, i took inspo from this silly interaction of him and Rein)

Lifeweaver is a nurse (i don't know what type of doctor suits him, plus he would still be studying biolight :3)

Kiriko would be a paramedic (i based this choice on her ability to teleport to her allies in game)

Ana would be a pediatrician (basically cuz she is the only mom that has experience with kids in the sup role )

Brigitte would be a nurse too or she could do the maintenance of the hospital

Moira would be an Oncologist or a Geneticist (like in canon, plus she would almost be banned from working on the hospital lmfao)

Baptiste would be a general practitioner

since Illari and Juno are the youngest (18 and 19) they would still be in a medical university

and last but not least, I'm adding Symettra as an ophthalmologist since she was a support back in OW 1

(if anyone have suggestions u can tell me and i have no knowledge of how an hospital actually works (sorry for any mistakes), this is just a very silly and funny AU idea after all)

Overwatch AU ideia: all support heroes work together at a hospital

AU where the Junkers are Ghost Hunters

Roadhog staring at Junkrat for doing stupid stuff most of the time.

More overwatch X Oiiwa cause I fucking love both of them dhsjdjs, this time I present you Gency X Oiiwa because honestly, Iwa suits the healer role so well with his canon profession fjsjdhjs For those who have no idea what's happening!! Iwa is mercy!! A support hero who is a primary healer with a pistol!! Mercy used to be part of overwatch but didn't agree with the violence they got up to fjjsjd Tooru is Genji, a cyborg ninja who became what he is because his brother downright tried to kill him ejsjje, Mercy is the one who saved him!!! Hence why I thought it fit the two of them rather well hhhh
