Re: "CW: this is... gonna be pretty fucked up."
Date: 2018-03-04 05:20 pm (UTC)Widowmaker is a created person, built out of a combination of Talon needs for an assassin and Amélie Lacroix, wife of Gerard Lacroix, Overwatch's head of anti-Talon actions, back when Overwatch was official and legal and all that sort of thing. Amélie was kidnapped, held for months, changed by Moira, allowed to be "rescued" by Overwatch, and, two weeks after recovery, killed her husband as planned and retrieved by Talon to be completed - also, by Moira. (She wasn't blue when 'rescued,' obviously. She looked - and acted - reasonably normal, for a traumatised kidnap victim. Or so they thought.)
All that's canon. Emily, in canon, we actually know very little about - she's Tracer's canon girlfriend, but she's not part of Overwatch or Talon in any incarnation. At least, as far as we know. So her reaction here is unique to this Emily, this Oilliphéist.
Moira is a terrifying character, particularly to me, in part for reasons I will not explain, in part because FUCK YOU SHE'S SO OP IN THE GAME ON CONSOLE WHAT THE FUCK. But also because of, well, what she can do.
