Help I’ve fallen into Overwatch hell and can’t get up
I write Reader-Insert smut and fluff about Overwatch characters (and some My Hero Academia). Genji is my favourite boy.
Oooh! Been awhile since I gushed about incubus!Genji!
- Sometimes he’ll sit in a different corner of the room and just stare at you lovingly, with his head cupped in his hands while his demonic tail swishes in the air.
- Being around you has been so incredibly satisfying for him. The craving for sex doesn’t come nearly as often as it used to. He’s normally in a constant state of bliss because of this.
- He practically worships the ground you walk on and does his best to cater to your every need. He lives to please and doesn’t want to do anything that would make you dislike him.

DAE see Reaper and immediately think “daddy”?
- Genji isn’t too difficult to train and winds up being a very obedient hybrid.
- He wears his collar with pride and isn’t afraid to flaunt it in front of other hybrids.
- If he’s feeling particularly needy, he will get down on all fours and rub against your legs for some attention.
- LOVES to take naps with his head resting on your lap. And, once he’s there, you’re trapped.
You and Genji are new teammates. It’s unfortunately showing.
After nearly missing the drop-ship home on your last mission, along with the commander’s “polite suggestion” of team-building, the two of you settle on semi-forced seclusion of one of the many abandoned outcrops around the watchpoint to do just that— to get to know each-other.
At first, it feels very much like detention or a weird punishment. You put effort into avoiding serious conversation, offering sarcastic remarks about trust-falls or playing impotent rounds of ‘never have I ever’ but Genji surprises you with his sharp wit and soon you realize the two of you have more similarities than differences. Actually, as it turns out, a little bit of harmless teasing was maybe the most productive method to understanding each other; you would have never discovered he was so easy to talk to if you had kept your walls up.
You know, like you planned to.
It’s only when he dips into matters that are a little more serious do you pull back, instinctually, and while you understand what his angle is— emotional stakes, hostages do this to their captors too, something nailed into your head by the commander himself— you’re not ready to level with him like that just yet.
“Tell me a secret.” The brilliant green lights in his visor pulse gently. “Something about you nobody knows. Anything.”
“That’s, uh, maybe a little too much for right now,” you admit. “Kind of like asking strangers about their scars—”
He perks up as you speak, physically leaning into you. You’ve said the magic word without meaning to, without knowing there was one.
“Scars?” No sooner does he ask do his hands slip around to the back of his skull and work open a mechanism. With a dull hiss, he removes the metal plates that stretch and hide his features and for the very first time, you see your teammate’s real face.
There are multidirectional scars running all over his skin, evidence of trauma, but behind that his eyes are warm. Kind. “We can compare, if you’d rather.”
You look, stunned. His only defence is a smile; it’s a small thing but you can tell there used to be vanity there, residue of ego. The smile used to be a smirk. It’s become shy. Humbled.
This is as personal as it gets with him now.
- He’ll find any excuse to visit you at work and purchase your goods.
- He probably leaves a basket of your treats out in the rec room for people to take and try! Genji just wants so many people to try your food because it deserves so much recognition.
- He eats A LOT of your treats. He may start getting a little bit of chub, but he just can’t stop. Your food is too addictive.
- Genji definitely makes a lot of jokes about wanting to eat you instead.
- Better believe there’s a lot of frosting and custard jokes too.
- Very lowkey angst but I bet he was just blunt one day and said “I love you” but you took it like.. the familial I love you??? So you were just like “aww I love you too, sweet kitty.” and Genji was just… disappoint. Ears flat against head kind of sad. :c
- So he starts saying it more but then it becomes a casual thing, which is the OPPOSITE of what Genji wants.
- So he starts being far more affectionate than normal if that’s possible.
- He’ll take you out on dates and make plenty of mentions that it is in fact a date. (But you’re just like awww yeh a cute little date between a girl and her cat! how cute!!) ((basically friend-zoned but like… the hybrid pet way))
- So okay he starts giving you gifts, but that’s not uncommon with cats since they will sometimes just bring home junk for their owner so—-
- Time to break out the big guns. He gets you a promise ring and basically confesses to you marriage proposal style. He thanks you for the love you give him despite his handicap and lists all the things he loves about you. And of course he points out his frustration with your obliviousness but he loves you all the same.
- You likely feel sooooo bad for unintentionally friend-zoning him but you gladly return his feelings, take the ring, and you are officially a couple!
- (Genji totally adds a “I’m Hers” pendant to his collar. Totally.)
