Summary: Jesse McCree was caught trying to steal back some Overwatch technology. No one is able to save him, not when the world still views Overwatch as a failed experiment. Jesse is now on borrowed time, captured by a gang that wants nothing more than to make an example of the cowboy, except... Except for the Yakuza who showed up at their door, demanding they keep him alive.

Summary: Jesse watches that ever present scowl freeze over, his heart doing that uncomfortable twist yet again, and he realizes—

This is a problem.

What started as a fun romp- a few too many drinks and heavy hands-

Turned into- into-

He didn't know anymore.

Under a glittering sea of stars, drunk on amber moonshine and burnt sugar heavy on his tongue-

Feeling Hanzo's weight; heavy in his arms, spiky ponytail tickling against his chin...

He knows.

Summary: Jesse McCree has travelled far to seek the aid of the Shimada mountain guardians. It's his last hope for help, if they'll give it to him.

What better way to start off the year than with an announcement on a random Thursday. 

We hope you all had lovely holidays and that going back to the real world where we’re not in a loop of Hallmark Christmas movies has been smooth. I'm going to skip the highlights of 2020 and let the year rest in peace, and turn towards the new beginning we have. These 7 days have started a bit challenging for many of us (somehow everything didn't just fix itself over night and I'd like a refund), so I'd like to do something small to bring a bit of positivity to the year and all of you.

I know very well how challenging the past year has been on many of us from a creative standpoint, and that there are some of you that joined us in the RB to get back to creating and to find motivation to keep creating amazing fanworks. In the spirit of that, I've decided to make another change to our schedule (the change in our FAQ is pending until we finalize the check in dates):

Posting (and the final deadline of the event) has been moved from March to April. I've decided to give everyone a bit more time to work on their entries to reduce stress and make sure everyone is working with enough time to finish everything up, and maybe even give you the opportunity to create something more than you initially planned.

Check ins will happen per schedule at the end of the month, where I'll include the new schedule as well.

Happy New Year, and stay safe!
