*rubs my gay little hands together* god this was a hard conclusion to come to. a lot of people like to headcanon classpects based on what the classes do, (i.e. if lanque’s aspect wasn’t already given i bet a lot of people would see him as a thief of heart. i mean, look at him.) but i’m all about the trends in personality or background based on pre-existing people that have their classpects all figured out.

i decided on heart since genji’s backstory revolves around finding himself and inner peace and all that. iirc he felt a huge disconnect with his body after he became a cyborg and i sort of connected that with feeling a huge loss of humanity? he didn’t really know who he was, and heart players are all about finding themselves and their identity. that wasn’t too difficult.

rogue was a really hard decision to make. (i honestly feel like maid or sylph might fit him better to a certain extent, but there isn’t really a male equivalent;;) my notes on rogue literally just amount to “very chill and kind of give off a low amount of energy. their aspect typically plays a heavy role in their life and interests” i’m not helpful!!! 

but doing a bit of research there was a little think piece saying that they have problems coping with their aspect or lack of it. again, going into that whole lack of humanity that genji felt like he had at one point. 

considering going deeper into his background and how he used to be a playboy and thought of as kind of a liability to the shimadas because of how little fucks he gave i also kind of thought he might fit into the mage category since... it literally almost killed him. that lifestyle could also be interpreted as a moment in his life where he was still searching for some soul or purpose since he didn’t really wanna be part of the clan iirc??? then it got even worse since he tried to cave into that whole ‘i’m a machine and nothing else’ thing with talon why is overwatch lore so interesting they should’ve just made it a movie

ANYWAYS
