Continuing on their world-wide crime spree, Junkrat and Roadhog decide to raid Winston's lab at Watchpoint: Gibraltar for any technology they could use for their own purposes. When they break in they manage to find a teleportation device, so of course they decide to test it out. Unfortunately for them, it malfunctions and transports both them and Roadhogs ramshackle motorcycle to a world of pastel-colored ponies and frivolous morals. What better a place to blow up... and learn about friendship. Overwatch crossover.
Chapters (4)
Junkrat and Roadhog are from the Borderlands series, right?
7876479
Overwatch
How did roadhog go from absolutely willing to kill someone he hadn't even meet yet to berating junkrat for deciding to scare them a little?
Is terrifying them worse then just murdering them outright? Cos I absolutely would have been down with the surprise instant murder.
Hook 'em and cook 'em, roadhog hooks 'em and junkrat cooks 'em.
7876633 Well the straight up murder would be hard for me to do, mostly because I suck at writing gore fics. That and it would be hard to continue from if they just murdered the mane six. After all, if they murdered them, they would still be in Everfree, and learn nothing about Equestria in general. Also to answer about the Roadhog change of mind thing...Mako Rutledge's mind works in mysterious ways. Plus Roadhog and Junkrat's background story is kinda hard to make any of it. All I can tell you is they tend to bicker.
7876707 well first off them being in the everfree doesn't really matter as anything they can't kill right away they could flee from on the bike.
And secondly reading about roadhog and junkrat trying steal valuables from a society they don't understand and where misunderstandings are common, seems much more interesting then them already knowing all the information they need right off the bat.
And if you really didn't want a gore fic you could have made the main six run away.
7876743 Ok fair point. If you'd like, I could make an alternate storyline based on the decision to murder the mane six.
Also to quote Phineas and Ferb about the scare instead of killing them: "One little scare ought to do you some good!"
Why does Roadhog sound so... smart and reasonable...???
7876780 To answer this question correctly would require me to ask a question that reflects yours. "Tell me, would you ever expect to see Junkrat play the voice of reason?"
7876788 Fair.
7876771 that sounds like fun.
If you wouldn't mind a suggestion for it then maybe this alternate storyline could be used as a contrast to the main storyline, for example when something important happens in the main storyline showing how different things would be if they just murdered the ponies in cold blood.
So in the main storyline they are being hailed as heroes for some reason and in the alternate storyline they're robbing the national treasury.
Also on a side note, do you know the general orientation towards royalty is in Australia?
If the royalty isn't British they don't matter.
(Though I don't know still applies in the time period that overwatch takes place.)
nice ideal,i love Junkrat.
7876843 Oh Canterlot, may god help you now. By the way I didn't know that about the australian royalty. That could be used as motivation in Junker's Hellhole. (It's a working title)
7877394 Thanks. I really like Junkrat as well, mostly because of the Rip-tire, his personality, and his weapon of choice. Afterall, indirect fire and splash damage is my favorite way to play.
7877660 Australian royalty? Now that's a laugh.
Australia was formed as it is now far beyond the time period of new kings and queens.
Now what I was saying is that in Australia we are still influenced by the queen of England, she's on all the money! (Half the value of the Aussie dollar probably comes from her face being on it.)
I see what you did there
7877919 Finally a comment about the Stargate reference I made. At first I thought no one would notice. Hell I even planned on tracer appearing because of Junkrat saying: Cheers love, the cavalry's here.
7877850 Yeah I don't know why I typed royalty. Old habits never die.
Finally a story of Junkrat and Roadhog that isn't displaced.
7878227 Uhm...what do you mean by displaced?
7878258 Those stories were someone goes to a convection dressed a a fictional character, then meets a merchant that sends them to equestria, transforming them into the character they're dressed as. the stories that spread like cancer on this site.
7878035 well, actually... now that I think about it I do remember this one guy who claimed to be the king of australia and i suppose no did bother to dispute his claim.
Who'd of thought that an assassin would be the king of Australia.
I'll admit it is kinda fitting really.
7878307 Ahh. I see. I have read a few of those myself, and let me tell you, they ain't pretty. It's like watching Teen Titans Go on repeat.
7878597 I hate hate HATE displaced stories
, at this point, I don't think they should even count as crossover fics. Because a real crossover fic involves the actual franchise characters, not some human who changes into said character, if anything they should just be tagged as human stories.
7878614 I couldn't agree more.
On a side note to everyone who has read Junker's Paradise, once I'm finished with it, I will make a short series of stories with overwatch characters. (Which characters I do is up to you to decide.) I also have an idea for an Epic meal time story. Title: Epic Pony Time, and a Tokumei Sentai Go-buster fic. Let me know what guys think down in the comments below.
This isn't, bad. I like the direction this story is going. I just have two things off my chest. First, Roadhog. Roadhog, to me aleast, doesn't feel like roadhog. Know this is your fic and you are allowed to write these characters however you like, but roadhog feels too, grounded (?). He isn't one to complain a lot and while yes he can be reasonable, he still is as crazy as junkrat. Him actually speaking words I feel, doesn't mix well with the character. I think would've been better if he grunted instead of talk and like over time instead of junkrat having to explain what he said, the girls can understand him. Of course like I said this is all personal preference and you can write this character however you please, I just wanted to add my opinion that's all. Second, it was too rushed. Not the story, but the introduction of the main six. Equistria wasn't set up well enough. It needed more background to it for the reader to really not only get a sense of the setting, but also get a feel of your version of equisetria. It would've been nice to have added some background information to the ponies, like what they were doing for the day before the picnic, how has their week been, or what's been leading up to this picnic. Hopefully this all makes sense. I'm always up late at night reading these lol. Cheers.
7879635 You most certainly have a point about Roadhog. While I wanted him to be the voice of reason, it seems to sacrifice his entire character in the process. In next few chapters, that will be fixed to where he won't talk as much. As for the set up on the mane six and rushed background, that was an oversight by me, and will HOPEFULLY not happen in future chapters. Thank you for the input. I really appreciate it.
As a funny little tidbit to everyone here, while writing Chapter 2,when I accidentally published it, the word count was 666. Is that normal?
I hope you make more cause it is really enjoyable i just hope junKrat and roadhog dontnbetray the mane six
7901536 Thanks for the support. And I hope they won't either
RD is really gonna fuck up bad, soon. she needs to learn whats the difference between he own lack of knowledge and the skill and knowledge of others.
Well rodhog certainly extended his hooking range, that's going to be very very useful later on.
7902056 Amen to that my man.
7902144 Exactly why it happened. Also to fuck with RD, but yeah that too.
7902203 i am waiting till RD decides to one up junk or attack him as he is working on his explosives...
7902206 hehe yea! fuck the blue team!
7902532 Hmm...
7903441 TF2 much?
7903682 actually I was referencing an overwatch comic, specifically one that featured junkrat and rodhog.
Ya bloody wanker...
7904334 Oh...well I'm an idiot
nice chapter.
7909402 Thank you, my good sir
You welcome my friend .
TEAM KILL!
7941535 A rare moment in Overwatch, unless you're using D.Va
7941673 I actually just got a solo team kill yesterday. Used death blossom on an unsuspecting payload full of players.
7943592 Holy crap, they must have been some stupid players to not see a death blossom coming.
7943675 They were focused on the Roadhog ahead, just hiding behind a Reinhardt shield. They tried to kill me, but our Zen went Transcendence and their Reinhardt was already dead. Got a quintuple with the blossom and finished off their Roadhog from behind, who somehow didn't notice me.
Nice story ya got here... Recent too.....
Updates soon?
