I will not get over the original Blackwatch team, and no I don't mean the one with Genji and Moira.

For context, in Overwatch it was revealed that not only was Angela "Mercy" Zeigler the head of Overwatch's medical team, but also the head of Blackwatch's medical team up until Genji joined. Meaning it's likely she was a part of some of the Blackwatch missions as a team member.

So that makes the original Blackwatch team Reyes, Cassidy, Gerard and Angela. Which considering the fact that Gerard was at most three years older then Cassidy and Angela....

I want to know what their dynamic was like. Specifically Angela, Cassidy's and Gerard's, cause we already know what all of them were like with Reyes.

Like before everything started to go south? Did Cassidy and Angela know about Gerard and Amelie? Were they there when the two met? Did they make fun of Gerard's crush on Amelie? Did they try and give him dating advise?

Angela's a doctor and Gerard was a diplomat so I doubt either of them could shoot that well. Did Cassidy make fun of Angela and Gerard's shooting skills? Did he help them improve?

Did Gerard teach Cassidy diplomatic tricks in order to make sure there was at least one other person who could get info without pulling a gun? Did Gerard ever make fun of Cassidy and Angela's less then stellar love lives? Did he invite them to his wedding?

This group interests me so much because it's a look into the golden age we haven't seen, it's a look into the early days of Overwatch, an age not riddled with tragedy after tragedy.

Gabriel: Moira, Angela stopped by the Blackwatch headquarters today.

Moira: Really? Did she say why?

Gabriel: No, but I can guess.

Genji head cannons number I already forgot

1.

Unless Genji is actively in ninja mode, in the mindset of controlling every single movement he does and being aware of everything happening around him, he can be incredibly clumsy.

Like accidentally dropping something, if he's not dodging then getting nailed on the side of the head with a snowball, tripping over himself, bumping his hip off the corner of a counter, falling off of things constantly (this one would happen a lot more considering the other head cannon of him unintentionally always just perching on things like a bird like the back of the couch), etc. With a prime example of this being the time kiriko retales about him tripping over his sword in training and just (how I imagine atleast) completely and totally faceplanting

So unless he is actively in the zone and the mindset, you would hardly know he has insane reaction time, to move really quickly, can dodging deflect like no one's business, or just move in general at incredible speed. If the adrenaline isn't pumping, you wouldn't be able to tell at first glance he was a ninja assassin trained from birth. He's just zoned out half of the time, or he's just so intently focusing on listening to someone that he's unaware of everything else around him.

Also on multiple occasions he would do the thing of accidentally dropping his phone and in the process of trying to catch it accidentally slaps it into a wall instead of the carpeted floor it would have landed on.

2.

Genji is really intelligent, if he had gone to normal school, like Angela he would have been considered a prodigy. He was the one who built his collapsible shurikens and original wearable shuriken deploying gauntlet, he couldn't use technically terms, or even really explain how he did it but he could show it / draw it out. Drawing detailed diagrams explaining his thought prosses, but not really able to put into words his explanation for each part or how he figured out how to get it to work.

He has a deep understanding of mechanics and some robotics even before becoming a cyborg. This knowledge only grew once he became a cyborg and drying his travels had to repair himself. And in his time during black watch and OverWatch before the fall, he learned even more from talking with Angela, torb and other members of the cybernetics team.

And even though he's incredibly smart and eventually incredibly wise. He can come off as somewhat dimwitted, with him not picking up on jokes/sarcasm, being amazed by the smallest things, or not understanding things others would think is obvious.

He comes off as a trained killer assassin who knows about fighting and combat, and other things nessessary for being a ninja. But outside of that specific area he wouldn't know much.

But naturality when you get to know him, he's incredibly knowledgeable on a lot of things, and academically really gifted as well. (Maybe not as much in geometry as compared to Hanzo anyways lol) if it came down to it he could do really complicated equations with ease or understand a lot of science-based subjects, but this would mainly show through his knowledge on dinosaurs if he got to talk about it. Like if someone were to mess up a time period you would politely correct them and then quickly and efficiently inform them about all the intricacies and specific details about the differences between the time periods and what dinosaurs were in those periods and the climates during each period and more.

This also shows through the conversations getting Angela would have on base during the night, has Angela explained all of her medical research Genji would listen intently and ask relevant questions, and is genuinely very interested in learning more. This is helped person being a quick learner and can be able to pick up concepts he's interested in really quickly. Maybe even going as far to do his own research in between their conversations so he could come back with more topics for them to discuss and he could ask questions on. Similarly, he can be incredibly witty and sarcastic (even if he doesn't pick up on sarcasm himself sometimes), just overall be a totally smartass, which possibly played abit in the clan elders wanting him killed aside from the "liability" thing.

Long short Genji gives off himbo energy but is in fact very smart, dumbass yes, but also smart(ass) ...also his version of common sense it's incredibly different due to his up bringing which also causes half of his issues

You know what I think about? The fact that it's confirmed that Angela helped on Blackwatch missions until Genji was coerced into joining. Meaning technically Angela was both an Overwatch and Blackwatch agent.

And if my theory that Gerard was 20 when he first started going on missions is write, then Cassidy and Gerard were probably the first friends close to her age that she made. Cassidy being the first friend since he would have been a trainee and she would have only been volunteering since they met around when they were 17.

Which makes everything that happened a lot worse because Angela lost both of her first and best friends during the final years of Overwatch. Gerard dying and her loosing contact with Cassidy because he had to go on the run.

Honestly I hope we get to hear about the early Blackwatch days more. Especially since the main group would have been Reyes, Cassidy, Angela and Gerard, I want to see what that dynamic was, they would have definitely been closer then the Retribution group.

Honestly I would kill if they brought back the archive events and added a new event that has that group.
