Why isn’t Hanzo on it

How did you know my greatest weakness is being sensitive to touches? Like argh?

Hanzo is super touch-starved and wants to never move again in his life, leaning against Jesse’s hand and enjoying the feeling of those calloused fingertips against his sensitive skin.

I noticed this! Even as a girl I find it really annoying how girls have almost monopolized fandom on here. Tbh I don’t think there would be as much drama if there were a few more guys to balance things out - they usually have different views to them on things (and are usually less radical about it) Of course, I’ve found far more male antis than female on other sites, and who’s to say they wouldn’t be the same here, but at least they wouldn’t be preachy SJWs

Well, girls haven’t really monopolized fandom - fandom just happens to be majority female by design. It’s a girl culture, built for and by women; men tend to show their love for things differently and not really participate in big fandom hobbies like shipping and fanfiction. I don’t know how it is for the gaming side of things, obviously there are a lot of gamer guys who are really passionate about their shit, but at least on the TV side women even dominate the convention scene. Of course that’s a generalization, but as a dude who does participate in fandom, I have to recognise that I’m kind of an exception to the rule. Still, it’s like, I’ve got like two guy friends in fandom who are active and other than that everyone’s a woman and it’s like I love y’all but I’m lonely

@celticwarriormoon Thanks for the prompt!  And as someone who also grew up in the Southwest and is now going to college in Minnesota, the beginning is too painfully true.

***

Growing up in the Southwest and spending many summers at Watchpoint Gibraltar meant Jesse was usually very warm, almost overheating, when he woke up.  The heat would wake him up at 3am, forcing him to turn the fan up to a higher setting, throw off all the blankets except the thinnest sheet he can find, and hope that will be enough to allow him to get a couple more hours of sleep.

But growing up in the Southwest also meant that he enjoyed sunny days and 90 degree weather far more than he enjoyed snow storms and sub-freezing weather.  When winter would hit all spare blankets in the Watchpoint would slowly but surely make their way to Jesse’s room to be piled on his bed and to be worn around the base like a cape.

When Jesse’s relationship with Hanzo finally started getting serious and they shared a bed more often than not, Jesse was ecstatic.  Not just because he was dating the more beautiful man this side of the Atlantic , but because that also meant an extra heat source at night.  Yea the summers got a little warmer but Jesse knew how to deal with that and both men were secure enough in the feelings towards each other that they were comfortable enough to sleep on opposite sides of the bed with minimal amounts of skin touching and weak threats of bodily harm if either one attempted to shift any closer.  But the winters, the winters made every sweltering night they suffered through worth it.  Jesse’s loved nothing more than to climb under already warmed sheets and wrap around his boyfriend and steal as much body heat as he could before they both fell asleep tangled together and pleasantly warm.

Jesse didn’t think it could get any better than that.

What he didn’t expect was Hanzo’s betrayal.

It was the shivering that woke him up.  Each shake pulling him farther up out of his quite frankly, amazing dream until he was finally aware enough to realize how absolutely freezing he was.  He felt like he was back on that mission in Moscow from last month with only 4 blankets and no archer to keep him warm.  But he was back on base now, with his 8 blankets and Hanzo to keep him warm, so where were his 8 blankets and Hanzo?  

Jesse reached out and started feeling for a blanket to pull over him without opening his eyes.  When that didn’t work and another shiver wracked his body he finally opened his eyes and blinked the sleep away.  The moon shined enough light in through the window to let him see in the darkness.  The sight he saw was almost treacherous.

Far on the other side of the bed Jesse saw a head of black hair sticking out of the top of what could effectively be called a blanket burrito.  Hanzo had stolen and wrapped every single blanket around him sometime in the night and left not a single one for Jesse.

“Hanzo,” Jesse whined as scooted over to his boyfriend.  He tried to unwrap the blankets but Hanzo’s grip on them was iron strong.  Hanzo only exhaled quickly and shifted in his sleep as response.

“Hanzoooo,” Jesse tried again, a little louder.  That time he got a grunt and a slurred ‘what’.

“Babe, ya stoll all the blankets.  I’m cold.”

Hanzo rolled over and slowly opened his eyes, the chocolate hues illuminated beautifully by the moonlight.

“’m sorry.”  Hanzo worked to unwrap himself, Jesse helping with trembling fingers.  When the blankets finally get untangled Jesse slid under with speeds that would impress Lena, only for Hanzo to shriek and sit up.

“Jesse!  Your hands and feet are freezing!”

“Well that’s what happens when ya steal all the blankets, you thief.”  Jesse tried to pull Hanzo back down and cuddle with him but Hanzo pushed him away.

“No, keep those icebergs away from me!”

Jesse grinned dangerously and Hanzo tried to push him off the bed.  Jesse lunged and pinned Hanzo underneath him.  He made sure to press all of his cold appendages to as much of Hanzo’s skin as possible.

“Jesse, no!  Get off of me or I am never sleeping with you again!”

“We both know that’s a lie. Now jus’ calm down, I’ll be all warmed up in a minute or two.”

Hanzo continued to struggle, though with less vigor than before, until Jesse’s hands stopped feeling like ice.

“Now, ain’t that better. C’mon, let’s fix these blankets.”

The two men struggled to resituate all the blankets over both of them.  When they were finally right Jesse curled up around Hanzo’s back.

“I hate you,” Hanzo mumbled into the pillow already halfway asleep.

Ooohhh… Can I please be added? :3 My birthday is July 8th and my OTPs are McHanzo and Gency (especially McHanzo though ��) and I’m a sucker for hurt/comfort.
