I know everyone had negative views on Spy being a father because he’s quite shit at it honestly, however I was hoping we could get a Spy late father instincts kickin in for a young adult reader?
" Late Night Comfort "- Spy comforting a young adult reader.
Tumblr media
Word Count: 1036
Tw. hurt/comfort.
You sat down on the fancy chair, uncomfortably tapping your fingers on it's arms. 
This whole situation made you feel like a child again. You weren't a child, you were almost an adult! And on top of that, a mercenary. You could get through this yourself. 
The battlefield has been tough. A little more than usual. You noticed the others were much more concerned about you lately, but you always shrugged it off with stress and said it's all gonna be okay. The excuse worked on everyone...expect Spy. 
You've barely been a part of the team for two months. You had no chance to even show yourself to your teammates. But somehow, he just knew. 
He saw right through you. And tonight, he knocked on your door while you were crying yourself to sleep, saying he needs to talk to you. 
Right now you were sitting in his room, watching him settle a glass with red wine on the coffee table before you, and then going to the chair on the opposite end of it, facing you while sitting down. You swallowed. Here comes the lecture about how dangerous the job is and how young you are, blah blah...
- Listen...Oh, also the wine doesn't have much alcohol, you can drink it. If you want a cigarette, I have some too.- He said casually. You were about to open up your mouth, but he stopped.- Don't say you don't smoke, I know you do. Saw you with Sniper after the last mission. 
At that, you looked down to your feet and only nodded. You could hear the man sigh. 
- You see, what I wanted to you about is...I think you should take a break.- He said. 
You looked up at him again, starting to get angry. 
- A break? Right now? I can't, Spy I'm...
- You're in constant stress. I can see it. You can't focus during battles, you miss every single shot. And I noticed you've gained some interesting scars on your arms, am I correct?- Spy said, looking right into your eyes. You couldn't help but look away. 
- It's from...
- I know, you don't need to explain it to me. I just want you to cooperate with me. The sooner you go on vacation, the better. It's only two weeks off. 
- Well, where on Earth am I suppose to go?- You asked, a bit salty. You hated the fact that he was right. 
- You see...- He started, taking the glass full of wine into his hand and taking a sip.- To your family. And if you don't want to, Scout's also going on a break to Boston. You can join him. 
- And how is that gonna help? I'm just gonna stress over you all and the missions more and will be counting days to come back.- You replied, feeling a gulp forming inside your throat. 
- That's the thing. You won't, if you manage to let it all stay here. That's why I want you to talk to me. Tell me what's on your mind. We can work this through.- Spy said, putting the glass back down. His tone was very gentle and he seemed to really care. 
For a moment you put down your defense, and sighed. 
- It's just...the missions. I'm not doing good on them anymore. We keep on failing because of me. And you know, the whole mercenary thing...I'm starting to feel like it's not for me. All the other mercs are so much older than me, and I can't really have a normal talk with any of them. I mean, there's Scout, but he prefers to hang out with them. And I'm...
- Lonely?- He cut you mid-sentence, tilting his head to the side. 
- Yeah. It's kinda...- You felt your stomach twist as you thought about it.-...pathetic. 
Saying it out loud, it really hit you. You felt like crying, but instead just took in a deep breath. Spy wasn't replying, so you decided to say something more. 
- No matter how hard I train, no matter how much I try, I can never impress any of you! I just want to feel like home. I didn't take over war, it's the war that took over me! Don't you know, I would rather be at the state university of New Mexico right now...but it was blown up by Saxton Hale because he needed money!- Now pure anger mixed with sadness, and you felt tears forming in your eyes. 
- Spy, I just want to make a new home. I can't have a normal life, at least I can still have this one. But it's not working out.- At this point tears just started rolling on your cheek uncontrollably as you began to delicately shake in the chair. 
- I just want...want a home...- You began whimpering out as you sobbed. It was embarrassing to cry in front of him, but you couldn't help it. 
Spy didn't say a thing, just stood up from his seat. He slowly took off both his gloves, then the Balaklava off his head. He wouldn't usually, but it felt like a good idea. It was somewhat illogical to feel comfortable with someone who hides themself. He slowly approached you, and when he finally got to you, he crouched delicately to meet your eye level. 
He gently took your hand in his, which made you snap your attention towards him. 
- Shhh...I know it's hard. I promise it will be better.- He said.- You're gonna take a break and when you come back, everything will be okay. I promise. 
He began delicately caressing your hand, which was quite calming. 
- Did Scout agree to that?- You managed to mutter out. The man only nodded, and you sighed.- I guess I can go with him.
- Of course. I'm glad.- Spy said, letting go of your hand. He stood up and looked at you again. You exhaled deeply, cleaned the tears off your face and also stood up. Without asking, you just threw yourself onto him. After a second he accepted the hug, pulling his arms behind your back. 
- It's alright, mon chou. Everything will be okay.

Hiii! If reqs are open, can I request for all the mercs finding out teen merc reader grew up with very neglectful parents, and is basically a mother to her younger siblings? The only reason she even took up a job as a mercenary is so she can pay the bills for her little brothers and sisters, since her parents are too busy using their money on drugs:/
Mercs find out teen!reader takes sole care of her siblings [Platonic
Tumblr media
| All mercs x GN!Reader Platonic | 826 words | Masterlist | Ask/Request |
Hardest thing about this was actually getting a name for it :cry:
╔═════════════════╗
Scout
✧ He says he relates, but in reality he doesn't. His family was filled with successful boys (fatherless) and his mother who they all loved. He sent his paychecks to her every time.
✧ When you explained that you had to take care of your siblings from a younger age over the campfire he became quiet.
✧ Doesn't make a joke, but the awkward air was getting to him.
"so.. how many siblings ya got?"
✧ He only says this to break the ice
✧ After a while he understands why you're always on calls with people, always away on ceasefire and always take any off days you can get (hardly any)
Soldier
"AN AMERICAN CARETAKER SHOULD NOT INTAKE DRUGS FROM THE FRENCH!!"
✧ He's trying, but not hard enough
✧ He offers you one of his extra helmets and his raccoons. He cares for you like a strange rabid dog you found on the street.
✧ Shares his food with you, gives his loyalty to your brothers and sisters with a goofy salute.
✧ Don’t let him meet your siblings unless you want him to get them to dig a trench around your house
Pyro
".. mph?"
✧ They don't understand why your parents aren't using their own money.
✧ They don't understand a lot of what you explained
✧ They'll begin to offer any candies they have to you, not like they weren't already. Protects you a lot on the battlefield and draws pictures for you and your siblings (mostly balloonicorn) 
✧ Would like to meet your siblings though, they've got plushies to share 100%
Heavy
✧ He pats you on the back and nods, he didn't need to mother/father a group of kids but having no father made his family's life harder.
✧ Teaches you some night hearty meals that could feed a battalion
✧ Also teaches you self defense, even if you know it already it's never enough (heavy tells you that like :nerd: )
✧ Also makes you sit and have some time to yourself, he's your 'father' now. No ifs, buts or whys
Engineer
"pardon."
✧ He says, frying pan in hand as he was cooking breakfast. Staring at you like he was going to kill a set of parents.
✧ Tries to keep you safer on the battlefield, not wanting you to suffer more than your family has done to you.
✧ Teaches you to cook, like heavy 
✧ Cooks breakfast for you first, and when you have a rough time its 100% only you getting proper meal.
✧ Will drive you to your family's house, and stand there like a guard as you let him meet your brothers.
✧ Probably would build little contraptions for them and help tutor them.
✧ Loves you like family, including your siblings (not your parents, not at all)
Demoman
✧ He's drunk when you tell him this, he raises his bottle and spits out
"aye, fuck ya parents"
✧ He passes out immediately
✧ If he's sober when you mention it again he's going to be more caring(slightly) and since hes always at least tipsy he'll offer you his bombs like a drug dealer.
✧ If you say yes he'll blow up them and their crackhouse.
✧ Is on the fence about meeting your siblings, he doesn't really want your brothers seeing a drunk, half-blind Scot stumbling around.
Medic
✧ His eye twitches, a large insane smile on his face as he turns to you while having his elbows deep in the corpse of the enemy heavy.
"Did I mishear you?"
✧ He removes his hands from the corpse and comes over to you shaking you like crazy. Ranting about how a teenager shouldn't be caring for small children and asking if you had symptoms for any mental issues.
✧ He's insane, I'm not gonna sugar coat it.
✧ But he is smart and teaches you how to do some basic first aid
'no medic I'm not going to remove any appendices please stop cutting into scout'
✧ Wants to meet your sisters, offers them to play with his birds and offers up some plushies
'MEDIC DON'T GIVE THEM SYRINGES' 'and PLEASE put away the baboon heart'
Sniper
✧ Asks for you to repeat what you muttered and then offers to 'get rid' of your parents (sniper put down the rifle.. and the jarate)
✧ Drives you back and to your family home, is uncomfortable around small children so he's going to 100% either stay in his truck or be leaning against it the whole time.
✧ Don't worry he didn't bring any jarate with him.. Just don't check the truck (please) 
✧ But if he mentions taking care of birds your siblings demand to see them, so they get along well
Spy
✧ He will assassinate them, won't tell you, but it'll be suspicious when your mother dies from an overdoses while having and obvious bullet hole through her chest
✧ Look, he wasn't a father to scout but he'll be a father for you. Better than your last father at least, and a little better than he was to scout.
✧ Teach your siblings french 100%, you won't know until they start speaking it and you're left dumbfounded.

Hello! I’d like to request the mercenaries with a fem mercenary reader who is a shapeshifter and has a pretty chaotic personality? Basically Nimona from the movie Nimona lol
Watched the movie finally, and now I'm gay for ballister. Thanks for that xoxo. be on the lookout for something on him because i want to chew him and hit him like a tennis ball
Also, it's safe to say I got a little stupid with this one 💀
Mercs with a chaotic! reader
Warnings : swearing, light mentions of gore, talk of body parts, medic.
Tumblr media
CHAOS CHAOS CHAOS *jevil laughter*
Probably get along really well with Pyro and Scout not gonna lie because Pyro likes to burn shit (Even though I'm pretty sure they think they're spreading joy and colour) and Scout is pretty hyper in general, willing to go along with anything as long as it's fun.
*burns down barn*
"huddah huh huu hud."
"Yeah, loving the colour too, pally. Really makes the wood boom." *evil chuckles*
As soon as Pyro learns about your shapeshifting ability, they're all over you. They want you to play 3 different characters at their tea parties simultaneously and transform into a unicorn so that they can ride you into battle and fulfill their wildest dreams
"Hud hudda hu hubuh huuuuh HUDDAH!!"
"Okay, okay, fine!" *transforms into a unicorn* "Get on."
*excited hu noises*
"HUDDAHHHH!!"
Besties 💗🌈🔥✨️
Some of the older and quieter mercenaries are NOT gonna be having a field day with you and your silly little personality.
Sniper hates it THE MOST. He doesn't like people that much in general and can barely keep up with the hyperactive chaos that is you, so he mainly sticks to watching you burn shit down from afar.
"Did'ya really have ta' do that much?"
"Yeah. Why, you not liking it, pissboy?"
"..."
"That's what I thought. Don't be a hero, buddy."
Although he doesn't appreciate your snarky attitude, he likes how you can shapeshift. He really likes animals and will sometimes scope in on you when you transform, nodding with approval and whispering a little, "cool" that he hopes nobody hears.
Spy thinks you're a nuisance around the base but definitely sees the usefulness in your shapeshifting abilities since he kinda almost does the same damn thing, just with his goofy masks. He respects you for that, if anything, at all.
Do not ever expect to replace him or get remotely close to him in espionage, though. If you are at the same level as Nimona, you're not great at directly impersonating humans, and he will tease you about it.
"What was that, today?
"What was what?"
"The 'Oh Mon deu! Ack! Oohh! I dropped my baguette' if that was meant to be an impersonation of me, know that it was terrible, and my lawyer will be contacting you."
"I dunno, I think it was pretty accurate." *shrug*
Medic loves you. Sorry, not sorry. Loves you. Does get tired of you sometimes, but not all the time. He's generally also very *bzzz bzzz chaos organs* so he's happy to indulge in whatever you want to do which usually involves the absolute destruction of everything.
Medic is also incredibly fascinated by your shapeshifting ability. Do not sleep around this man while shape shifted because he's poking and prodding everywhere while you're out.
"Ohoho... how peculiar" *pokes open nerve*
"YEOUCH WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE?!"
*nervous chuckle as he hides a bucket of blood and from your view*
Engineer tries to be that guiding light he thinks you need. He's a friend, a father figure, a colleague, whatever you need. He's a nice Southern gentleman with a slightly insane twist. Encourages you to be careful around the others, but if you aren't, he's not complaining. Makes the job easier if everyone listens.
Heavy is pretty chill with you. He's neither annoyed nor pleased that you're around. He relatively keeps to himself, medic, and his guns.
Actually, do not touch his gun. Do not pretend to be his gun either.
Soldier and Demo like your charisma. You can be a pretty fun drinking partner for demo, and a nice soldier when you're willing to follow orders (which isn't usually) but as long as you get the job done with as much destruction as possible, Soldier is saluting you almost as much as he does the American flag that is hanging next to his bed.
"ANOTHER GREAT DAY, TODAY! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND I MIGHT RAISE YOUR STATUS, CADET!"
"SIR YES SIR! or something I dunno, fuck this is weird..."
*walks with soldier, ignoring the screams of the dammed behind you*
He makes you transform into an eagle and has you sit there on his arm for a while, admiring you fly. It's brought him close to tears on many occasions.
Whenever he gets married to Heavy's sister, Soldier is making sure that you are THERE as an Eagle. He'll pay you to fly across the sky and make majestic bird noises.
Overall, some very mixed experiences. But a fun concept either way.

Hello! this is based on an OC, but may you write about Medic with a cloned child OC? I always thought of him as a mad scientist type, so I’m sure he would’ve figured out how to do that. He basically raises this clone as his own kid, and they’d be a late teen / young adult by the time the events of TF2 happen
The OC is a girl but honestly you can make it gender neutral if you’d like!
Sorry if it’s too specific, but TYSM!

Medic & Child, Cloned reader HC
A/n: This is one of my fav reqs of all time ngl Requests are open!!
Summary: You're Medic's cloned child, headcanons. Words: 636 Request: Yeah
Tumblr media
I like to think you’re a clone based on him, or atleast a clone made in his image. One medic is enough to create chaos and things like that, just imagine another person who's almost a 1to1 of him, pure chaos. 
Your first day being alive, he took you in his arms and was like “it’s alive!” just as Heavy and Spy walked in to ask him if he wanted to go grab a beer. They were absolutely terrified, Spy just cloaked out of there having the day Scout was born in the back of his mind.
That left only Medic, you and Heavy there. Heavy was shocked and Medic just held you up looking at him; “Isn’t she so cute!!” While you looked alarmingly similar to him with his grin on your face.
Others found out like ten minutes after that and soon everyone was just looking at you with no clue of what to do.
When Ms. Pauling found out she almost died on her spot. “There’s no way Medic is suited to even have a dog, let alone a child!” 
Nobody gave af, she soon came around to like you too. 
Medic is 100% your father figure (That’s rather obvious) but so was Heavy, they’re like your dads.
Sniper, Engie, Demo and Soldier are like your uncles (That doesn’t include Spy because he’s def a wine aunt, and so is Ms. Pauling). While Pyro and Scout act more like your siblings. 
Medic showed you the ropes and soon you were as capable of doing batshit crazy things like him. He was so proud!! 
Archimedes loves you, always resting on your shoulder doing simple things like staying with you and Medic during operations on other Mercs. 
When you were a less capable child everyone basically coparented, of course Heavy and Medic were like your parents the most but everyone wanted to take care of you so they followed a schedule of who has to babysit you and when. 
Once you grew up to actually be independent, mercenaries were terrified to realize how similar you are to Medic, you were the same person, with slightly different looks, you even wore the same glasses he did. 
When the events of the TF2 mercs splitting happened (Referencing the comics rn if someone didn’t know) you went with Medic, the change impacted you way more than it did him, you really missed everyone, they were like your family. 
Once he started to work with those blue guys you were cool with it, they underestimated you but you showed them that you’re just like your fellow dad, insane. 
Medic showed you all the modifications he made and you showed the modifications you did before you both laughed it off like the silliest thing one can do. 
When everyone got back together you were way older than you used to be, but fortunately you remembered everything. 
When Medic told you about the fact that you were a clone you were very interested and didn’t care, like at all. I mean you’re basically him, so it was more interesting than scary or sad.
He helped you in acquiring 9 souls from some suckers just like he did! (Can’t believe all mercs gave him their souls lmao) 
Sometimes you operate on the Mercs when he’s somewhere else, at first they were very unwilling but soon it showed that you were just like him in this profession (which isn’t the ideal tbh)
Everyone showed you something, so you were really multiclass, leaning heavily into being another medic (shocking, I know)
Overall a 10/10 father, sure he has some loose screws but isn’t that normal? You two are the most chaotic beings even the devil can’t contain.

Ello! Can I ask for some hcs-?? Some hcs of the mercs with a friend that likes to just spoil them, maybe with food or drinks, anything- just because they like being generous,
Mercs with a pal that spoils them!!
this was rlly fun tbh... thank u anon :3 we need more like friendship with these guys i think
uh no warnings, just sillies!!
Scout
Honestly I don’t think he’s used to getting spoiled, but the gesture is definitely welcome
His first reaction is to try and do or get something in return though you have to remind him that it was simply an act of kindness and he doesn’t owe you anything.
Though when you continue to spoil him by getting small gifts, buying him food, he gets a little embarrassed, but he’s still very grateful.
Soldier
First reaction is to hug you, though it’s really stiff and bone crushing.
Maybe make him dinner, even feed it to him. He’ll be a bit reticent but trust me, he’s very happy. 
He’s trying to keep up his belligerent and manly front, but fails horribly when you appear with a little gift in hand. He’s probably giggling like a school girl and twirling the straps of his helmet.
Pyro
Oh get them some treats and they will adore you for it.
It doesn’t have to be big to mean something to them, they appreciate it big time.
Definitely squeezes you in a hug, you had to go to medic afterwards because they broke a rib or two.
They’re very happy… will try ‘n get you a silly gift later as well
Demoman
A little sheepish while accepting a gift, but still very grateful. He’ll probably try insisting that he doesn’t need it, though once he finally accepts it he’s super happy.
Might tear up a bit but hides it very well. 
He’s so used to constantly giving, so receiving something for once kinda confuses him.
Just pamper him with homemade food and whatever trinkets you find that remind you of him, he’ll get giddy about it.
Silly guy…. Ily demoman *smooch*
Heavy
He’ll definitely be confused but when you explain it’s just to show appreciation he smiles softly.
Perhaps a pat on the back and a few words of gratitude.
If it’s an object, he’ll put it on a shelf where he can see it frequently. He’s very happy about it…
Maybe go and get him an ice cream after a mission.
Engineer
Oh he’ll give out a hearty laugh. He doesn’t usually get lots of gifts so he feels very appreciated…
Will ruffle your hair and tell you how much he loves whatever you got for him.
If it’s a treat or food he’ll, he’ll enjoy it just as much and be sure to tell you how he enjoyed it afterwards.
He probably needed it too, he gets quite caught up in his work so it probably helped with his hyperfocus.
Sniper
Oh he doesn’t deserve this… is what he’ll say,though deep down he knows he deserves everything in the entirety of ever. But… this will suffice.
He’s happy about it, very happy. 
Kinda like Engie in the way of being very grateful, albeit a little grumpy, that he hasn’t been overly consumed by his work and instead surprised with a small thing.
Grumpy yet whimsical old man, he’s very glad and will put it on the windowsill where he can see it.
Medic
A gift…? For him? 
So incredibly awkward he does not know what to do. Hug…? No, pat on the head…? Uhh… he’ll settle for an odd side hug. 
He wants to show and say how happy he is about whatever you brought him, but he is terrible with words.
It’s ok though because you can understand and just glad that he’s happy with it.
Spy
He’s usually the one to give gifts, so this is a nice change for once.
Whenever you give him something, he always keeps that persona of indifference and aloofness, but you can catch a quick smile if you pay enough attention.
He won’t stay for long or give you a grandiose reaction, but he does make sure you he’s very thankful and appreciative for going out of your way for him.
He’ll probably be up for a while thinking about it, maybe even be a little nicer to you as a treat.

A Real Family
Mercenaries x Teen!Reader
Word Count - 2.5K
Warnings: Child Abuse. Swearing. Fluffy Found-Family Mercenaries. OC-insert. Written accents.
Status - Not Beta Read
A/N: Remember that post I made about the Mercs bullying Teufort citizens? That's how long this big boy was cooking. This is my brain slop served on a silver platter for all to see. This isn't a reader insert, just my 16-year-old TF2 oc Ana Ivanova (who was pushed out of a helicopter into Snakewater but shhh we don't talk about that). The translations for the Estonian words are in the replies of this post. As for Ana's lore this is just the tip of the iceberg lol.
The cool Estonian air poured into the room like a wave lapping on the shore of a beach. So sudden, yet so common. Ana flipped over in her bed, the créme-colored, thin fleece blankets hand-knitted by her late mother wrapped around her. Ana squinted through the dark, and saw the silhouette of her sister's grinning face in her doorway.
"Hei, sister! Today, it's your turn to help me string the nets and catch us some breakfast!! C'mon, get up and put on a smile, unekott!" Maria chimed, her voice falsely inviting.
Ana's stomach grumbled under her blankets at the mention of breakfast. Last night, Maria sent her to bed with no dinner because she gave her lip. Ana leaned up on her elbows, back popping as she squinted up at her smarmy sister. Maria rushed her, like a cat pouncing on its prey, her hands gripping Ana's arms, and Maria hauled Ana out of her safe and comfy bed.
"Hei! Mida-"
"Ei! No cuss words," Maria sternly reminded her, hooking arms with Ana and dragging her from her bedroom to the kitchen.
The two siblings skipped down the hall, as the oldest of them was in the kitchen brewing some hot tea. Little Olev was cradled in his arms, wrapped in another white fleece blanket that was hand-knitted by their mother.
"Tere, Alex!" Maria said in a sing-song voice, greeting her older brother.
She sighed. "Tere, Aleksander– tere, little Olev," Ana hastily greeted. Maria whacked the back of her head. Ana made a groan, as her brother's sweet-as-honey smile faltered slightly.
Maria kissed the top of Ana's head to ease Aleksander, and she skipped over to kiss her older brother on the cheek, as her littlest sibling made a tired noise of distaste. Twirling playfully, she yoinked a black, furry coat off the coat rack and began buttoning it. Ana simply stared at her display.
"Mida? You're fourteen, you can get the coat yourself. Now, hurry! Before I do it all and you'll get nothing to eat!" Maria benignly threatened in her sisterly voice. Ana flinched when Maria's hand raised to exaggerate the "nothing to eat".
Ana nearly tripped over her socked feet; drunkenly stumbling to the coat rack to grab the slick maroon coat. The soft, rabbit fur lining slipped over Ana's lanky arms. The shiny zipper cocooned Ana in her coat, and throwing on her boots she grabbed the ice drill and a cup of bait on the key stand. Maria smiled at Ana and pat her on the back, Ana recoiling from the action.
The sisters rushed outside into the snowy Estonian grass. It was near ethereal. The sky was silver, as frost twinkled on every blade of grass. Powder snow rained down like it always did in the morning, and Ana sped out after her sister for the frozen lake.
Stepping onto the ice, and seeing the imprint of her boots on the thin sheet of snow covering the lake, Ana smiled. Maria did a whistle for Ana to come near, and she stomped on a soft part of the ice where all the small fish were. It was never a lot, but it was enough to feed the four of them.
Ana set the drill down onto the heart of the crack Maria made by stomping on the ice, and slowly rotated the drill-tip in her hands. The ice was already pretty thin, so when Ana pressed the side button meant to punch a hole in the ice, she accidentally dropped the drill into the cold water.
"Mida kuradit?!" Maria screamed at her. That drill was hand-made by Aleksander and their father, back when Maria was little. Her papa always held the family drill in high value, and so Maria did too. To lose the drill felt like losing a 10,000 quid lottery.
"Ma- vabandust!" Ana pleaded. Maria grabbed Ana's dirty blonde hair, teeth gritted in contempt. Maria yanked on Ana's hair firmly, to twist her away; and Ana fumbled on her feet when she was spun, so she slipped and fell face-first onto the ice.
Maria fell with her, but she caught herself on her knees. Ana was laid out on the ice like a dead body, as her older sister glared down at her with empty eyes of hate. Ana's neck craned back, and her face was bashed against the ice.
Again and again, Maria continued to pound Ana's face into the ice 'till she bled. Her eyes were filling with blood from cuts on her forehead– her sister fading into the red, blurry void.
Eventually, the ice broke; Ana's face heading into the water below. She screamed, bubbles of air gurgling out of her mouth. Her head flew up, freed, and she was flashed with sunlight. Her achy arms lifted her up on silky, gray-brown sand. The sky was a gentle blue, and calm waters tickled her wrists. The rocky outcrops were rounded, warm, and soothing.
At least until the screaming came. Men, screaming. Explosions turned the once-gentle sky orange, and all the white puffy clouds in it dispersed into black smoke. A bullet bounced off a rock beside her, chipping it and turning it jagged. Then. The worst part of it all. Had to be Maria's laughter. It came from the loudspeakers. It made Ana's ears ring. Maria's fucking cackling.
Ana's hands rushed to cup her ears; to make the vexatious, awful laughter go away. It was deafening, and made Ana's head pound. She screamed, and she screamed and she screamed to make it go away.
As she screamed for Maria's stupid laughing to go away, people calling her name emerged, and it got louder and louder with the laughter too. "Ana! Ana! Ana!" it was like a bunch of different voices were speaking all at once. Her eyes squeezed shut against her will. This didn't feel nice. Make it stop. Make it quiet. Shut up. Stop it.
"Stop." she sorely, and quietly mustered at first. But the voices kept coming. "Stop!" she demanded, eyes now open and pouring unshed tears. But the voices continued to get more anxious. "Stop it!" she screamed. But they kept coming.
"STOP!"
═════════════════════════
Ana's eyes fluttered open, and she wasn't on the hellish battlefield anymore; rather, on a couch. A red couch. A man in a white doctor's coat was level with her, on his knees; his icy blue eyes locked with Ana's turquoise ones.
A breathy, Estonian "Ah?" lazily left her lips in a yawn.
The hands on Ana's face were not hers, trying to block out the laughs; but rather the man's, whose soft thumbs were wiping away tears. Her world seemed fuzzy, but slowly, she could make up the words flying around her.
"Ana? Mein Kind, vake up," Medic was saying. An expression of worry was worn on his face. Others were also trying to coax her awake. She felt herself trembling on the couch, now aware of someone's arm wrapped around her.
"Medic?" Ana asked quietly. He nodded, and Soldier and Pyro were now shushing the others. "Mis juhtus?" she asked looking around, accidentally slipping into her mother-tongue.
"Jou fell asleep betveen Heavy und I," Medic started, the arm around Ana belonging to Heavy. The large Russian was looking down at her, his worry also evident. "Jou started vhimpering und tvitching. Vhen jou started crying ve all tried vaking jou up," Ana was suddenly aware of all the eyes on her; every Merc staring her down with a concerned look.
"It was just a nightmare, I'm fine, really!" Ana said, trying to nonchalantly shrug it off. A shaky breath trailed her words.
"Kiddo, no one should be actin' like dat when sleepin'," Scout stated.
"Oui, Scout is right. What was zhe dream about, chérie?" Spy asked from his spot next to Sniper.
She shook her head, "It doesn't matter, I'm fine now," Ana said, attempting to reassure them. It seemed to only worsen their state, though. Medic took Ana's hands, holding them, opening his mouth to begin to speak when Engineer cut him off.
"Yah weren't dreamin' 'bout her again, were yah?" he asked. Ana's eyes guiltily fell to her hands, an obvious yes.
"Roo, yah left that sheila behind the day yuh fell into Snakewater," Sniper said, sighing. His head dipped low, solemnly, but he straightened back up when Ana spoke.
"My brother... he didn't even try to look for me," she said, feeling the salty tears drip down her face once more. "He didn't even try."
"Ana." Heavy stated suddenly. "Look at Heavy vhen he iz talking to you." She did as he told, meeting his eyes. Heavy's grip on her tightened. "It iz better dat he did not." he said. "You are happy vis us, да? Happier than you ever been?" Ana nodded at all his questions, taking her hand from Medic's to wipe away still-wet tears. "You should not care about her."
"She treated yah like crap! She was messin' with yer family so she could hurt yah wit'out no one questionin' it! Now tha' is no way tuh live," interjected Demoman, shaking his fist. Soldier patted Demo on the shoulder in agreement.
"Ana?" Scout, almost somberly, asked. Ana looked over at him; he was holding his hat in his hands, and his headset was around his neck with his short brown hair ruffled. "Did... did any of 'em evah tell yah dat they loved yah?" When she shook her head, a no, the temperature in the room seemed to increase.
Their combined anger could've rivaled Ana's late father. A lot of them were muttering curses under their breath. "But none of them needed to! Alex kept the roof over my head and Maria was keeping food on my plate; it was all just peachy!" Ana was shushed by Heavy.
"Ana. Zhose are her words, not yours," Spy said. "Zhat is not love. Zhat is what caretakers legally 'ave to do for you in this country,"
Ana frowned. "But Maria always told me-"
"Ana! She had lied to you about a lot of things!" Soldier said suddenly. "Hudda hudda!" Pyro added, probably agreeing with Soldier.
"Ana, listen to me." Medic said, drawing her eyes back to him. "Jour birzh parents, siblings, whoever- vill never love jou as much as ve do. Zhey do not compare to us; zhat may sound narcissistic, but it is true,"
Ana nearly froze. "You guys... love me?" It was a genuine question.
"I mean, yah kinda fell from the sky and took a tumble on 'dem rocks in Snakewatah, so Doc hadda heal yah, and we all wanted to keep yah at that point," Scout said, rubbing the back of his neck.
"Ve had to fight the Miss Pauling to keep you," Heavy added.
"Aye! Even after that we had to fight The Administrator!" Demoman chimed in.
"Darlin', we gave yah somethin' yer old parents never could." Engineer said. Ana rose her brow and he smiled at her. "A real family,"
"We love yah more than anythin' kiddo," Scout said.
"We'll foight for yah, even if that means we lose our jobs; yer way more important," Sniper stated, grinning. Though his grin was lost when Ana suddenly burst into tears.
"What is the matter, Cadet?" Soldier asked frantically.
Ana covered her face with her hands, attempting to wipe away the tsunami of warm tears dribbling down her face. Don't cry, please. "I- I'm just so happy!" she cried. "No one's ever- ever loved me before! Aitäh, aitäh!"
Medic sighed, a small grin on his lips. "Ana, I know, I fell in love zhe second I saw jou," he shrugged, "Even zhough jour head vas bleeding." Medic covered a part of his mouth with his hand, leaning closer to Ana. "But I know jou love me zhe most," he whispered, though he made sure the others could hear it.
"Now hold on a moment, tha's not true. Ana loves me the most," Demoman said, earning a shove from Soldier.
"Both of you are lying! We all know who Ana's favorite is and that's-"
"Me!" Before she knew it, Ana was swept up in Demoman's arms. He hugged her tightly as he kissed her cheek. Then Scout snatched her from him, holding her in almost a headlock by his waist; ruffling her hair as he "hugged" her.
"I want to hold Ana!" Soldier argued, grabbing her from Scout and hugging her to his body with only one arm, like she was a teddy bear.
Ana was used to this, surprisingly. She got a lot of amusement from this human tug-of-war. "Guys, there's plenty of me to go around," she joked, grinning.
"Yes, well now you are mine, and only mine," Soldier stated.
"Ohoho, is zhat a challenge?" Medic asked (more like teased), smirking. He grabbed Ana, engulfing her in a hug, and peppering the top of her head in small kisses. Heavy stood in front of Medic, effortlessly grabbing and holding Ana with one arm, and holding Medic back with the other.
"Aye! I had Ana first!" Demoman whined, trying to grab her back. With Heavy distracted, Pyro cut through the fray and grabbed Ana; sending Demo to the floor with a thud! as the Scotsman's weight slammed against the ground. Pyro held onto Ana as they spun her in a circle gleefully.
Spy got a hold of her next, but before he could vanish with Ana in tow, Sniper grabbed him. His left arm wrapped tightly around Spy's neck, while his right arm was draped over Ana's shoulders. Sniper slyly grinned up at the Frenchie.
"Let go of me Bushman!" Spy snapped, nearly elbowing Sniper in the throat.
Sniper chuckled and did as told, but he kept his grip on Ana. That left Engineer, who stood in front of Sniper with his arms crossed. "Wot are yah gonna do, shorty?" Sniper teased.
Engineer quirked a brow, flashed his wrench on his belt, and smirked up at Sniper. The kiwi gave off a nervous chuckle, politely shifting Ana to Engineer. Engineer looked around at the other men. And Pyro, who seemed to be getting closer to him, "Now fellas, why don't we just let Ana tell us who her favorite mercenary really is?"
"But I can't choose, I guess you're going to have to keep trying to win me over," she joked, grinning slyly from ear-to-ear.
"Well that'll be easy, I'm already winnin'!" Scout boasted.
"In your dreams, maggot!" Soldier retorted.
"Now look what'cha started Ana. We got a whole war startin' 'cause you're so damn lovable," Engineer said, laughing as the bickering began to grow. "Imma just start walkin' away, we both know Ah'm your real favorite anyway," he joked, turning on his heel and starting to walk back to his workshop.
"Vhere do jou zhink jou are going, Engi?" Medic called, the others now noticing him leaving, too. Next thing Ana knew, she was the one running. After all, she had nine mercenaries all trying to smother her with affection and attempting to become her favorite.
She was loving it though. How they were trying to show her how much they really loved and cared for her. This was something other than a competition between them. And as Ana was in her room, giggling up a storm as she heard the Mercs all playfully calling out her name like it was a game of Marco-Polo, she knew that Engineer was right; this was a real family.

Mercs react to being picked up
Scout
Kinda like a really fussy cat
Makes a big deal of it the first few times and tries to wriggle free.
"What da hell do you think you're doing? Put me down!"
Really doesn't like it in public because he wants to be the big strong man in the relationship >:(
Keep doing it and he'll get used to it. Still doesn't like it in public but won't mind being picked up in private. Still complains tho
Likes to be held but will never ever EVER admit it
Soldier
Doesn't even bat an eye tbh
Oh we're doing this now? Cool.
Soldier's a very touchy person, especially with people he likes so he's very okay with being picked up and carried. Very snuggly and probably wraps his arms around your neck
Don't expect him not to pick you up too tho! Scoops you up bridal style if he's in a playful mood or just straight up tosses you over his shoulder if there's something cool he wants you to go see
Pyro
Heart eyes mf
Pyro's pretty similar to Soldier in that they like both being held and holding their partner.
Loves to be picked up and will probably never stop bugging you to do it again if you do it once
Barely even needs to be supported because they cling like a cuddly little limpet
They're stronger than they look and will have no problem picking you up too
Extremely cuddly. Pyro takes this as an invitation to be in your personal space all the time now. Sorry, they're your best friend now. It's non-negotiable
Heavy
I'm sorry what
Kind of bluescreens because he's honestly impressed that you managed to pick him up
Thinks it's impressive that you're that strong but would really rather prefer you put him down. He just prefers to have his feet on the ground thanks
Would prefer to be the one picking you up altho he'd really prefer nobody get picked up tbh. Unless he's excited or really happy about something. Then he won't think twice about scooping you up and spinning you around!
Engineer
Another one of the mercs who just bluescreens
Definitely freezes for a second as his brain works to catch up with what just happened
Probably starts blushing really hard and gets exceedingly flustered.
"Aww shucks... I didn't know you were that strong, partner."
Again tho, please put him down. He would like to walk thank you very much
Probably won't pick you up either unless a) you ask or b) you're bleeding out and he has to move you to safety
Demo
Like Soldier, doesn't bat an eye
This is just par for the course with Demo. Honestly you'll have a hard time picking him up before he picks you up.
Likes to initiate a lot of playful touch. Wrestling, throwing each other around, ruffling your hair, etc.
Just kinda melts when you pick him up. Lol enjoy holding a Demo puddle.
May or may not fall asleep if you hold him for any length of time
Medic
Oh
Oh hello
Medic starts blushing the instant you pick him up. Kicking his legs and giggling
Starts joking about you being his knight in shining armor.
Probably has a crush on you now if he didn't already. Look, he's just into people who could easily squish him alright???
An overdramatic bitch if he's in the mood to be picked up
"No, I am afraid my injury is too bad! You will have to carry me!"
He stubbed his toe. Jfc medic
Spy
No. No. A million times no.
The first time you do it, he blushes fiercely and runs away and you don't see him for a week.
It is undignified and humiliating and you're going to ruin his reputation and how dare you
More inclined to like it in a romantic relationship but still makes a fuss about it.
That is, until he gets used to it and then he's demanding you carry him everywhere like a spoiled brat
Sniper
Kinda hard to pick up because he's a lanky fuck and he's got so much goddamn legs. It's like picking up a spider
Really really nervous that you're going to drop him. Has a death grip on your shirt
Sniper's pretty confident right up until something happens that he doesn't know how to deal with. Being picked up is one of those things. Probably hiding his face with his hat and blushing really hard and making a big fuss
Can't decide whether or not he likes it
Probably isn't going to stop complaining but he's also not squirming so idk make what you will out of that

You should hmmmmmm write fatherly mercs NOW 👿👿👿👿👿
If u want to teehee
Mercs being Fatherly for you since yk ur fatherless and stuff also scout bc he’s ur lame brother
Scout
He isn’t really the person you’d want as a father figure, but he can definitely act as an older brother or just a sibling in general!
Scout also gives me fun but weird uncle, so if you want an estranged uncle who is pretty dumb, funny, and kind of rich??? then yeah he’s a good choice.
The kind of guy to watch sports and yell at the players even though he doesn’t know the rules, that’s so father of him
He would then proceed to try to teach you the sport, and he will fail.
You guys just end up playing catch in the yard, but y’all quickly abandoned the gear after Scout heard an ice cream truck
You walk home together eating your deformed character popsicles, Scout’s arm around your shoulder, and the sun setting
Heavy
If you need a father figure, you came to the right person
He had to be the ‘man of the house’ for a while since his father died when he was young, so he kind of gets how you miss that paternal relationship
He’s very good at comforting and helping you when you aren’t feel well or having trouble with things even though he doesn’t speak English very well
I think having three younger sisters contributed to that
When you guys get closer, Heavy starts watching you on the battlefield more and keeping you near him, just to make sure you’re doing ok
He worries about you even though you guys do this every day, but he just can’t help worrying for you!!
Heavy would read you books in Russian, even though you don't understand much of it, and it reminds him of reading to his sisters when they were younger
When you visit Medic, Heavy watches the doctor closely to make sure he doesn’t try implanting any animal organs that don’t belong, but don’t worry, Medic takes a liking to you too because Heavy likes ya :)
Engineer
Is it just me or does he just give me like childhood nostalgia? Might just be because I'm from Texas too
If you start sticking to him like a lost puppy, he'll quickly go with it. He'll be looking out for you on the battlefield even though you’re a smart kid
Engie will definitely teach you a bit about engineering if you're interested too! He's very happy to explain anything and everything, not only engineering stuff, but it'd lowkey just be him info dumping
He will update your weapons more often than the other mercs, but that also means you guys sometimes have little adventures trying to fix your weapons or hunting down the occasional bread monster herd
Y'all have fun though, and your weapon gets updates, so win win?
He reads stories to you and Pyro too, mostly fiction ones though like the Grimm Brothers' writing.
Speaking of Pyro, you two are basically siblings now, good luck. Engineer has a little nook for you two to hang out in while he works into the nights. If you and Pyro fall asleep there, he'll walk you back to your room, maybe read you a silly bedtime story if Pyro's still with you two, and wish you a good night
Medic
He’s a questionable choice for a father figure, but he's silly <3
You’d probably be in the infirmary or calling him a lot if he starts feeling protective of you, but he thinks it’s sweet that you always get your injuries taken care of in this line of work. Like if you get a paper cut, you make sure to slap a bandaid on it, y’all know what i mean?
I don’t know how to explain in a way that doesn’t sound weird, but Medic is weird so eh?
During battles, when he knows the Heavy is safe, he’ll run off to top off your health, even if you’re only down 5 HP, and he saves his Ubercharges for you and Heavy <3
But since you’re getting injured a lot, Medic decides to teach you some first aid past the basics
If you’re interested, he’d teach you more advanced biology and even let you assist in surgeries! You guys bond over spinning Scout’s organs around, and Scout is not happy about getting his lungs switched around with his kidneys
All this time in his medbay got his doves quite used to you, so they now have favorites, you and Heavy. Although, now sometimes Archimedes tries to sneak away from their dad to follow you
Heavy always brings Archimedes back to Medic after you give them treats
Spy
Oh boy
If Spy begins acting in a fatherly way towards you, you must be something special
And Spy doesn’t have the best track record with children, Scout and the kid from the Smissmas comic, however Spy does still care
It would mostly be shown through gifts or praise for your exceptional work, he’s just very proud of you!!
While you’re great and all, he still watches your back to keep you safe from energy spies, and she teaches you new tricks to surprise the enemy team
It’s a nice challenge for you while also bonding with your sort of father figure!
When you learn a new skill, he’ll be singing you praises to the team for the next few days and expect to find a shiny gift from them in your room that night
“Bien joué, you have done well this past week”

Hi I have a tf2 request!
A HC with spy and scout the reader, (the reader is spy’s kid too but only spy knows about that) spy and scout plus reader being an adorable family without noticing, also scout and reader acting like siblings and spy trying to reel them in (poor tired dad spy)
Dude I dunno if this is weird but I feel like Scout would be flirting with them and Spy would be like "NUH UH, 3 FEET APART" like those middle school dance chaperones 😭😭
In a battle
Y/N: OW MY FUCKING ARM—
Scout: Oh shit! Are you okay?
Spy: What happened?
Scout: I think Y/N's arm is broken!
Y/N: don't touch it please!!
Spy [examining her arm]: Yes, I think we should get Medic.
Y/N: Thanks Spy! Please hurry!
Scout: Don't worry, I'll keep ya safe.
Y/N: Thanks, Scout.
At Red Base
Scout: Y/NNNNNNN!!!!
Y/N: Scouuuuttt...what's up?
Scout: I'm bORREEDDDD
Y/N: Not my problem, good luck with that.
Scout: Aw c'mon! Can I at least hang out in here?
Y/N: I guess so.
Scout: Cool! What movies ya got on this TV?
Y/N: Basically anything.
Scout: Oh, okay! Cool! [Turns on random movie]
Y/N: Actually, I'm gonna watch it with you. [Sits down next to him]
Scout, smiling: Okay.
That One Time
Scout: Hey, uh Y/N? I've been meaning to tell you something...
Y/N: Oh, okay.
Spy: 🤨
Scout: I uh...I've actually had a crush on you for a while, and...
Spy: No.
Scout: Huh? WH-WHAT DO YOU MEAN NO?!
Spy: I mean no. No romance amongst the company.
Scout: Heavy and Medic?
Spy: They don't count.
Y/N: 💀💀💀

Hello!!
Since requests are open, may I ask for a platonic blu!spy that doesn't realizes that blu!scout reader is his child??
Idk the idea of spy asking himself why the fuck is the scout on the fucking corner of the room avoid eye contact to the MAX while reader is just like "OH MY FUCKING GOD THATS MY FUCKING DAD WHAT THE FUCK IS HE DOING HERE"
General BLU Spy headcanons
↳ content warning: slight angst/comfort, engineer trying to be a good dad
• genre: platonic
• a/n: hey anon! Sorry this was answered late @~@ i was meaning to write this to a sort of, "comedic" turn but it ended up being kind of angsty halfway through so sorry if this wasn't like what you imagined!
Tumblr media
When you two met, either you're aware of that fact or not, it might just have not been a very good first impression.
You'd poke fun at spy, to which he'd reply with an insult to which you respone harshly back then it escelated to an argument.
If you happen to not recognized him right away, then there are chances you might've known it from medic or/and engineer.
Maybe you were feeling particularly mischievous one day and decided to steal some medkits from the medic's infirmary and when you found some classified documents of the mercs in his table, you couldn't help but take a little peek at it..
And that's how medic and engineer found you sitting on the corner of the room, documents clutched in your hand and your eyes wide.
They both would try to comfort you in some way, while giving each other a look at seeing your bewildered self.
Your mind is still processing at the fact that spy- The Spy- is your father. And questions began appearing. Where had he been this entire time? Does he recognized you? Maybe you did know him at some point in your life but you simply forgot?
At this time, engineer would always be by your side, offering comfort and cheering you up too.
After the revelation, you went from annoying spy every chance you get to absolutely trying to avoid him. At first spy was glad that you're finally out of his hair.. but after awhile of seeing you constantly avoiding him it began making him question if there was something wrong.
Seeing you and spy not being able to communicate and practically giving each other the cold shoulder concerns the other mercs, mainly the BLU medic and engineer since they're the only one who knew.
And so they decided to help you both on resolving this problem. After lots of talk, encouragement and awkward silences you and spy finally began warming up to each other.
When he finally realizes that you were his child, he was frozen on the spot, mouth slightly agape as his thoughts were temporarily cutted.
He's certainly still in shock.. but looking at your downhearted look, he understands that there's not more excuse. You were his child, and he left because he was a selfish man.
He could only apologizes and giving you a hug and feel you cry on his shoulder. He knows even if he could somehow be forgiven, it wouldn't change a thing by then.
Now it's really up to you whether if you still want to catch up lost times with him or if you just want to stay as just colleagues.

Hello hello, im aware that you made a platonic Yandere!engie recently and probably don't want to make another but I can't stop thinking about this idea.
Recently I managed to convince my friend to play TF2 with me and it was...something?? They quite literally spent half an hour trying to "deactivate the smoking" while they played as Spy for some reason and kept shooting at me while they played Engie bc they were trying to get my Spy to stop smoking. It was fun, they got disappointed at the realization but played with me anyways haha.
I was wondering if you could write some platonic yandere!engie with a spy!reader, I just think is a very funny idea for Engie to constantly to try and make them stop smoking is all, specially with Pyro who is nothing but delighted to light reader's cigarettes.
(once again I apologize for bad English from my part and for making an ask about a fairly recent character, hope you have a great day!)
AAAAAHHHH! Yes! YES! platonic yandere Engie gives me serotonin and a reason to live! He is such a weird yandere because of his kindly disposition. THANK YOU! I really like this ask. :)
Warning: Platonic yandere, smoking.
~~~~~~~~
Taking a deep breath, you sigh as you walk through the base. Having won a particularly grueling battle today you could feel some pride well up in your chest as well as a creaking in your bones. It was going to be a rough day tomorrow. Thank goodness it was the last battle of the week. Tomorrow you could rest easy and relax. Thinking about all the plans for tomorrow you smiled to yourself and hummed a happy little tune. The way that the battle was won today was incredible. The soldier did his part phenomenally and you think about how you backstabbed the enemy medic so many times he ended up paranoid around his own teammates. It was a sight to behold. Just thinking about it made you smirk and chuckle slightly.
Just one thing was off....during battle the Engineer on your team kept looking at you. It was weird. It wasn't a mean look or anything...but it gave you the chills. You didn't think he was mad at you. You didn't even do anything to him. As far as you can tell, you both are on pretty good terms with each other. Just the way he acted; it was off putting. Sighing softly, you round the corner and almost bumped into Pyro. The smell of burning and something sweet fills your nostrils. Looking into the gasmask you see your own reflection being reflected back at you.
"Ah, hello Pyro....good job out there today."
He doesn't say a word but holds his hand out with a lighter in it. Flicking the lighter on and off you look at it and let out a small sigh of relief.
"Oh...thank you."
Taking out a cigarette you light the end of it and bring it to your lips. Taking a long slow drag of it you let out a pleased sigh as you feel your body relax. Pyro seemed just as pleased. Clapping his hands together and practically hopping on his toes his happy mumbles break the silence.
Leaning against the wall you and Pyro relax for a while. Pyro looks more to your left and then takes off without a word. You roll your eyes at his antics and continue smoking. Leaning back and closing your eyes you don't notice the sound of someone walking closer until a hand is on your shoulder. Opening an eye you look to your left to see the Engineer.
"Hello Engie...how are you?"
He sighs heavily and reaches a hand to your mouth and plucks the cigarette from in between your lips and drops it on the floor and stomps on it with a huff.
"I hate seein you smoke those things."
You feel your eye twitch, a swell of anger rises within you and you give him a piece of your mind.
"Engie...don't you dare do that again!"
Your words coming out harsher than you liked. The look in his eyes looks dark and hurt...it scares you. Swallowing nervously, you lower your head and apologize softly.
"I-I'm sorry Engineer...I...I didn't mean to-"
He sighs and crosses his arms.
"I hate seeing you hurt yourself this way...If you keep this up, I'm gonna have to hurt you."
His thick Texan drawl mixed with uncharacteristically unkind words made you laugh hard. You look up at him through tears of laughter and stop cold. A pit of dread settles in your stomach...He wasn't laughing....he wasn't even smiling...You looked him in the eyes and freeze. His cold eyes pin you in your spot. Hearing your name being called from down the hallway you took this as a sign and took your chance to escape. You walked away slowly. Leaving Engineer staring after you in the hallway and a feeling of fear in your stomach.
~~~~~
I hope that you enjoy this! I finished my finals and I'm so happy! :)

merc reactions to getting a new recruit but finding out they’re only in their mid-teens ? gender neutral please-
A / N - Ay, it's here. Somehow I managed to finish this faster than I expected. Hope you like it, dear anon!
Also, half of the photos are kind of meme-y, but you know what? It works...Please tell me if it works, I am losing my mind trying to find a good quality comic cut out, but only find those.
Mercs with a recruit in their mid-teens
TW. Ask to tag.
Scout
Tumblr media
- he's not much excited, in fact he's a bit scared you might take his place, 
- but after he finds out you're younger than him...he's so happy! 
- he will teach you so many things, 
- how to play basketball, how to get along with the older men, even how to deal with your first crush, 
- since he is barely a few years older than you, he feels like as an young adult it's his priority to make sure you know all this stuff, 
- he's got seven older brothers, all the lessons are probably from them, 
- he really feels like you're just his younger sibling, 
Soldier 
Tumblr media
- Jane thinks it's his duty to make sure you know the rules of war, 
- he will show you how to use weapons, maybe even let you touch his own weapons, 
- " But only for a few seconds, I don't want your young, inexperienced civil hands to spoil them! ", 
- he will sit you down in the meeting room of the base, and tell you stories, 
- half of those stories aren't real, but you don't want to make him sad, so you just listen, 
- on the battlefield, he will follow you around to make sure you don't hurt yourself...or use your weapons incorrectly, 
- also..." You do know basic history of your beloved country, don't you, hippie? ", 
Pyro
Tumblr media
- this Phoenix adores you, 
- will invite you to tea parties, 
- you will also get a plushie or two from their collection, 
- you're the only person other than Engineer who takes them seriously, that's why they like you so much, 
- their childish personality helps you cope with the fact you've been sorted out as a mercenary at such a young age, 
- always there when you're feeling down, 
Demoman 
Tumblr media
- in all honesty, he has mixed feelings about you, 
- he can't invite you to the drinking nights with the other guys, you're just always left behind, 
- in recompense, he tries to teach you how to use the sword in the meantime, 
- you might never use that skill in the battlefield, but at least you have a thing that takes your mind off of the gravel wars, 
- when you're down, you both watch soap operas together, because he's the only one in the whole team who likes them, 
Heavy 
Tumblr media
- Misha just avoids you, 
- at first, you think he's just a big, tough guy who dislikes teenagers to look more " deranged ", 
- but finally, one of the men, possibly Medic, explains to you why he dislikes being around you so much, 
- you remind him of his younger self and his sisters. The way he had to fight to protect them, the awful place they lived in for a while...everything comes back to him when he sees young face, 
- you try approaching him about it, but he still remains silent, 
- deep inside, on every mission he keeps a close eye on you, making sure you're safe, 
Engineer 
Tumblr media
- Dell is now your step-dad, that's how it works, 
- he needs a few energetic bones to help him with his projects, so you will often stand around and hand him tools when he asks for them, 
- while he's working, he will tell you different stories about the other mercenaries, 
- you ask him to adjust your weapon's, because they're a bit too big for you to handle freely, 
- on warm days, he will take you out for a short walk to make sure you won't go insane, 
- he assures you that you can tell him about anything, and he will help, 
- he does in fact help, especially when it goes with your emotions, 
- he's always there to cheer you up when you're sad, or share a smile with you when you're happy, 
Medic 
Tumblr media
- he's so happy with you! I mean, such a fresh canvas to test on, 
- every week he asks you to replace your heart with an Uber-handling one, and every week you refuse, 
- but when he's not in his mad scientist mood, he's always ready to help you with some of the downsides of growing up, 
- he's also very helpful when you're feeling insecure about your body ( all teenagers do that, right? Not only me, right? ), 
- " Oh, don't vorry, zhis vill go away. Zhe average of healthy patients your age look zhe same as you ", 
Sniper
Tumblr media
- you never knew his first reaction, because he's rather quiet about it, 
- but after a bit, you learn that he's actually very trustworthy, and big hearted, 
- when you're down or one of the other mercenaries, you go to his camper, 
- you both play board games there, 
- he will most likely take you out fishing or camping during long weekends, 
- you like listening to him talk about his adventures from the bush, but he will leave out the gorey details out, 
- at some point, he just feels like an older, wiser, quiet brother to you, 
Spy
Tumblr media
- he's mad. Not at you, at the Administrator for even thinking about hiring you at this age,
- he doesn't see the reason why there must be a new mercenary, so he mostly avoids you,
- until during one of the missions, you save him for getting headshoot point blank,
- he does acknowledge you a bit more after that,
- you're not allowed in his room though, it smells too much like cigarettes in there,
- maybe he seems cold on the outside, but when he sees you struggling with your work, he will always help,
- helping you however makes him remember he couldn’t see this stage of his son’s life…that makes him feel miserable.

Hello!! I'm the one who requested the reader getting hurt in battle haha, hope you don't mind me requesting again! Don't worry I won't be doing this too much lol. This one's probably a bit weird, so I completely understand if you don't wanna do it! I wanted to know if I could request the mercs comforting a teen reader who just got out of an unhealthy relationship? I just got out of a toxic relationship and it'll really make me feel better :,) Please and thank you!!
Mercs comforting teen reader after toxic relationship [Platonic]
Tumblr media
| All mercs x GN!Reader Platonic | 749 words | Masterlist | Ask/Request |
Hi again anon! Hopefully you're feeling better now, it sucks horribly you had to go through that kind of relationship but at least you are out of it now <3
TW: Violence, blood n murder; the usual for ghosty's tf2 stuff
╔═════════════════╗
Scout
Big brother scout here is to kick ass for his younger sibling 💪💪💪
But honestly he doesn't know what do to, he offers to beat your ex's head in
Look its the scout way of showing his love, he's trying
Asks spy what to do, he doesn't help so he then goes to engie
He gives you some of his food, that being fried chicken of course
Soldier
"NO ONE HURTS A CADET UNDER THE WATCHFUL EYE OF AN AMERICAN SOLDIER"
He bellows down the hall when he sees you crying, look he cares about you. He just inst that bright
Already knows where your ex lives because he kept a close eye on them, more like stalked him but he's just being a good American dad
Beheads your ex and places it on a spike to use as target practice
Throughout the day he brings raccoons into your room, offers you guns and his American blankets
Pyro
>:(
Covers you in all their plushies and blankets, leaving you covered in soft pink balloonicorns and fluffy blankets
They roast marshmallows for you, and gets engineer to help make hot cocoa
They'll creep out of the base and hunt down your ex for hurting you.
Heavy
Russian man rise up 💪
He cooks you a nice traditional Russian soup
Keeps you on the couch and brings all the food to you, keeps scout far from you in this state
Will read some Russian fairy-tales or novels to you, with the lights dim and you covered in blankets
Gives you a giant bear hug
If he comes across your ex he will knock them out and give their body to medic
Engineer
Texan Father mode activated
The moment he finds you crying he is instantly ushering you to his workshop and offering to cook anything you wish.
He'll let you vent to him, but if you need silence he'll just work on his mechanics while in the room with you.
You are his child, no ifs or buts
and no one hurts his kid
but he'd get spy to give him your ex's address
then would absolutely strip your ex's car for bits and pieces, taking the wheels, engine, battery, steering wheel you name it
He'd bring soldier with him for optimal damage
Demoman
Drunk off his head (as usual)
Offers you his scrumpy
look he doesn't know what to do, like scout but he's trying to show you he cares
If you refuse the scrumpy he'd offer you to sit with him and just be in each others presence.
May or may not rig your ex's house with explosives
Medic
Where do they live, whats their phone number, whats their email, whats their blood type who do they live with and are they healthy?
You tell him any of that and he's instantly found your ex, kidnapped them, and while they're alive he takes all their organs and makes it as painful as possible
When you come for medic for some comfort he'll coo, patting your back while offering you a nice warm drink. draping his (CLEAN) lab coat over your back and letting you stay on his chair.
He's not good with comforting, but will let you vent to him and just stay within the med bay
Probably asks heavy to comfort you after a while
Sniper
Scraggly old man
Like most of the other mercs he has no clue how to comfort you during this time
I mean he lives out in his van and rather live in the bush than in a house
He'd take you out into the bush to get away from society, and keeps watch in-case you are anxious about your ex finding you
if you ex was extremely abusive sniper would kill them with no remorse, but ensure the bullet hits them where it would make their death slow and painful.
Spy
Spy comforting? lol no, sorry
He would pat your shoulder awkwardly
When you leave he's already tracked your ex down (not hard since he'd been keeping tabs on them ever since you two got together)
Blackmails your ex into the ground, forces them to make a video apology, give up their belongings and more. He sends the video and all his collected photos and videos of their abuse to your ex's family.
By family i mean everyone who is merely connected with them
Would throw his card at you, telling you nothing as he lets you go crazy with his money
He thinks retail therapy would help
If you thank him for anything he'd wave you off, saying "he deserved it" and lighting another cigarette.

I dunno if you did this but can you do the mercs (platonic) with someone who says really weird stuff out of no where like "bro.. a dodo is a pigeon 😦" LMFAOODJSJXJ
YES, THE QUESTIONABLE CHAOTIC ENERGY WE NEED- TF2 Mercs X Gender Neutral Weirdo Reader Headcanons (Platonic): Scout: -Fucking dies laughing from the weird shit you say, full on. -Always tries to guess what you're gonna say next and hopes it's better than the last. -You're basically shower thoughts as a human being. -Wonders if you're high sometimes, NGL. Spy: -Gives you the most bewildered expression, like "???" -Literally asks Medic if you're okay and is amazed that you come up with this shit. -Finds it amusing and ridiculous. Soldier: -Yells "What?!" at the nonsense that comes from you. -Is constantly confused at some of the shit you say, honestly. -Wonders if this is normal for you- Sniper: -Just accepts it and doesn't question it the after the first time. -He might join in on asking weird shower thoughts as well. -Sometimes laughs at some of your questions. Heavy: -Also gives you a confused look and wonders if something was lost in translation since he's not fluent in English. -Asks Medic if it's a normal occurrence (and if his hearing needs to be checked). -Just accepts it even if he doesn't understand. Medic: -Doesn't question it and instead has deep convos with you on those shower thoughts like it's deep or some shit. -Wonders if some of the stuff you say could have some truth to it. -Loves to watch the confused reactions that people give to what you say. Demoman: -He looks at his alcohol wondering if someone put something in it, LMAO. -Thinks it's because of the alcohol and just decides to not question it. -Laughs to himself 'cause he'll remember one of the stupid questions you asked. Engineer: -He's working on something while you're talking to him and whatever you said makes him drop his tool out of surprise and confusion, like, he'll look at you like "What-" -"Are you okay, Partner??" -Accepts it and just shakes his head when you tell him something weird. Pyro: -Tilts their head like a dog but somehow has an answer for it afterwards?? -Answers your questions with such confidence that it's scary (even though they're muffled under the mask)- -Loves watching people's reactions, thinks it's the funniest thing-

Omg this may be based too much on an OC, but could you do like a reader x spy where the reader is the twin of the Scout, and it’s kind of how the reader and spy would bond overtime, since Spy seems to hate everyone on the outside really.
Of course reader like scout doesn’t know who the spy really is, but maybe you can write how they discover it too.
This OC is a girl but you can make this gender neutral if you prefer!
Tysm!!
Sure thing!! :D
Scout's twin!Reader x Spy
(platonic)
• when you first joined the team along with Scout, Spy found you and your twin quite annoying
• truth to be told, you matched your twin's energy, gaining the same reputation as him
• however after some time you successfully detached yourself from the combined reputation into your own
• Spy had no interest in you at first, but when he found out your twin and you are his kids, he became more cautious around you
• Spy grew to appreciate you since you're not as snarky as your twin bro, you're more open and not as talkative
• You often talk about life back at home, Spy still thinks fondly about your mother, he wanted to know how she was doing but that wouldn't be too sneaky to ask openly "how is your mother?"
• Spy is pleased to see at least one of his kid has some manners
• you bought a nice bottle of red wine for Spy's birthday once, granting you his favor
• Spy is not the type to have long meaningful conversations, well with his colleagues at least, but he always responds to your questions or chit chat
• Spy still is afraid the truth will be revealed, he doesn't want to ruin what he built, he's afraid to face tge consequences, he's afraid you'll hate him for abandoning you before you were even born
• When you find out he's your father, it's not by your doing, it was Scout, who snooped around Spy's smoking room, he found a picture of your mother and Spy together as well as a few drafts of letters Spy intended to send to your mother
• Scout struggles to read, he brought the letters to you and asked to read them out to him
• it was a shock for the both of you, Scout was enraged, you were shocked and disappointed. You confronted Spy about this
• you've never seen Spy turn that pale as you confronted him, he decided to be honest with you, explaining why and apologizing for what he has done
• you're upset for a while but after sometime you manage to forgive and reconcile, hey at least your dad is stylish
• you already liked Spy so him being your father isn't a bother, however Scout is not too pleased
Okay! There it is! I hope you like it!! :D
I really hope that was what you wanted @_@

Hey I think ur writing is like really cool and nice !!!!
can I get some platonic hcs about the mercs with a friend who randomly gets scars and they dunno how they got them ? (Sorry if it’s weird D;)
HELLOO!!! mwah ofc!! 😚
AND TYSM<3333
Scout
Barely notices, but when he does isn’t really surprised because he gets them too.
Oh just a bunch of random minor cuts ‘n bruises? That’s ok… No big whoop. Infact look at this cool scrape that came outta nowhere yesterday.
At the end of the day you both kinda have a routine of patching each other up because Medic is tired of seeing your silly asses in his medbay.
Soldier
Not phased one bit…
Go get yourself taken care of, cadet you need to be in tip top shape.
Will patch it himself if it’s bothering him enough…
Has also learned that he has to do this frequently and just carrie’s bandaids in his pockets for you.
Pyro
Gets a little worried about you.
You must be incredibly clumsy and careless and they’ll probably scold you kindly.
They’re always dragging you to Medic to get fixed but other times they’ll just do it themselves if he’s busy.
Expect lots of colorful bandaids. To help you feel better of course!
Demoman
Your cluelessness concerns him!
But you don’t seem to be severely hurt or in obvious pain so you must be ok…
Still, he’ll find himself wiping the blood off a cut on your face quite often.
Probably licks his thumb to get the dried blood off like dad.
Tbh with the amount of shenanigans you both get into the “unknown scars” can be quite frequent.
Heavy
He is no stranger to cleaning scrapes and scars.
He did this with his sisters a lot…. they were quite reckless.
He might coddle you a bit… It’s sweet but you have to tell him you’re ok.
Doesn’t like seeing you hurt but you seem to be rather chill with it.
Engineer
Gently scolds you to be more careful.
Does the thumb licking dad thing as well… a little unhygienic but it’s fine guys.
Has a medkit in his toolbox and made sure there were extra bandaids for you.
If you want he’ll get ones with with patterns ‘n characters on it.
Might kiss it better if he’s feeling particularly nice…..
Medic
Oh you miserable, poor creature.
Surely this means you need an amputatio- what? Fine…
Not annoyed at you, just at how oblivious you are to your surroundings.
How do you not know what happened? Ah well, he’ll just use his medigun and shop you off with a firm pat on the head.
Cares a lot. But is like a scolding mother a lot of times.
Sniper
Won’t do much. He gets them all the time. No big deal…
Although will encourage you to wash it so there’s no infection.
Though he’s convinced you’re clumsy and will be a little more wary of your surroundings for you.
You don’t know where you got that cut? He does he watches it happen. Did not say a thing because you gotta learn somehow…
Spy
Where did you get these? You are very odd to him.
Will probably poke ‘n prod at them just to see you wince or any kind of reaction.
Its a little funny to him. Stupid asshole….
After he’s done teasing you about it he’ll clean your scars and make sure you’re all patched up.
