There was a time before all this, all this non sense. A time where Jack could proudly dawn his overwatch jacket. A time where he could hold his hand in Gabe’s. A time where he love deeply, fought bravely with cause, had a family. Now that family was torn apart. Disbanded, branded as criminals.

He gazed at himself, wrinkles deep, hair whiter than snow and receding fast,his bones ached, old age didn’t suit him at all. He wondered how long they could continue like this.

How long could the newly branded overwatch, which was shaping up to be nothing more than a rag tag team of vigilantes, carry on.

How long could he carry on? He had tried to keep himself out of the fray, but old habits die hard and old soldiers are hard to kill.

He sees Jesse say something that makes Hanzo laughs and he can’t help it but his hear flairs with jealousy and longing.

He remembers when Gabe would make him laugh and blush like that. He remembers the sneaking around, the dates, the letters, the gifts, the sex, he remembers all of it and he wants nothing but to crawl into bed with Gabriel the only man he has ever loved, the man he’s ever dedicated his life to, the only man that he wanted, but now he’s gone and Jack is now just a faceless solider in a never ending war. The omnic crisis might be over, but Talon is alive and well and so are many other organizations just the like.

Maybe that’s why he fights like he does, as if he fights hard and long enough he could bring back his love.

Hey everyone. Usually I don’t post here anything besides my artworks, but

Look at what I’ve done. Gabriel Reyes w/o his beard and mustaches.
