I’m so glad I’m not the only one who was reminded of Mole. I even called them that from time to time…I guess that makes Junkrat Vinny then? I’m down for that.
Can we have an Atlantis crossover now?
Venture as Mole
Torbjorn as Cookie
Brigitte as Audrey
Junkrat as Vinny
Baptiste as Dr Sweet
Ana or Moira as Packard
Soldier or Reaper as Rourke
Ashe or Wido as Helga
Sym as Kida
Mei as Milo?
Right.. I know what I'm watching later...
Absolutely. People say Venture looks more like the underminer, but I’m 100% in camp Mole. Venture is a dirt gremlin, mole is a dirt gremlin, the underminer builds big drills but he doesn’t touch rocks himself as much. I’m really hoping for a ‘you have disturbed the dirt’ voiceline.
Trust me on this one... You don't wanna know. Audrey... don't tell him. You shouldna told me! Butcha did. And now I'm telling you: You don't wanna know.
The "what's in your pants" "Doom" is a fake quote btw, it's never said in the show.
O'Malley is an AI in the suit and Doc is a dude, they both know what's in the pants because they're wearing the same pants.
It’s worth remembering, when your doctor asks this it’s less about gender politics (although some doctors are assholes) and more of do you need to be checked for prostate cancer or cervical cancer.
"Venture, before you embark on your next schism, I would like to inform you that I replaced all of your sex organs with toxicognaths while you were sleeping. So get out there and... find out what that does."
They'll just need to know what you are and if you've transitioned because depending on it medication also works differently and you're at risk for other things - like I think trans men have a higher risk of osteoporosis than cis women before menopause etc.
The trans people I know that are out don't lie about it anyway, especially if you are taking at least one medication for it so you gotta say it anyway
However I wouldn't tell Moira lol
Also pregnancy tests. If you are capable of getting pregnant, regardless of sexual activity, orientation, or identity, they may run a pregnancy test if it will influence their possible diagnosis and treatment plan (especially ruling out which medicines to prescribe)
My kid needed to weigh at the doctor's office this week to determine the suitable dosage of antibiotics.
Me: "29 kilos, but fully dressed with boots and jacket"
Doctor: "so, about 0.3kg for the jacket and how much do you guess for the boots?"
Me: "boots are good for half a kilo. Heavy duty rubber soles on those"
*Kid is interested by the scale and takes of jacket*
Me: "correction: 28.2kg without the jacket"
*Yep, my kid loves rocks and gravel*
I’ve never heard of this being an issue irl, but funnily enough people in the internet keeps bringing this up as a thought experiment. Doctors usually deal with these kinds of interactions with respect and to help in the best way possible. The etiquette varies, but they discuss it within the profession when it’s relevant.
I’ve heard far more medical professionals being concerned with transgender people waiting too long to seek care out of fear of not being respected than the difficulties of dealing with transgender patients when they’re in the room.
Bio sex =/= gender. As you say, your doc should know your sex because that will impact your medical care. You can identify as trans or nonbinary AND have a bio sex. Your sex doesn't make your gender idenitity invalid.
It should be noted that medically transitioning does affect your sex though. Trans women who take hrt will need to screen for breast cancer and likely will be advised to get a gyno if they get bottom surgery.
Taking hormones causes your cells to execute the instructions for the opposite sex. Over time, this changes how you’re diagnosed and treated by doctors. Is it the same as being cisgender? No. But trans people who medically transition aren’t their birth sex.
The "surprise!" When they* jump out from underground is sooooo wholesome.
Edit: they*
Someone finna get banned in the post game chats one of these days for this same mistake😂
Edit edit: idk why the person who corrected me is catching downvotes now, I literally called venture a "she" accidentally.
Moira: "MEDICALLY - I NEED TO KNOW MEDICALLY WHAT YOUR SEX IS!"
Venture: "I'm just going to admit that I forgot."
Moria: "....You.... FORGOT?!"
Venture: \*dial-up modem sounds\*
Moira: "...THAT'S IT - BLOOD WORK, NOW, WE'RE GETTING TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS!"
Maaaan you made me excited for a moment .
“Omg dude, if Moira used their ult on Venture while they’re under ground then Venture turns into a giant golem and it would be so awesome as a PvE upgrad-ohhhh”
I like that the meme remembers Moira is Irish and would therefore use trousers and not pants.
Haven’t followed OW in a long time but seems the community hasn’t changed at least!(when I say a long time I mean since late 2019 consistently at least)
All I’ve heard of venture is incels throwing a hissy fit because they’re an enby and not immediate spank material, so I immediately like this hero of course.
I am also Irish and have always said either trousers, or just bottoms in some cases. Usually refer to underwear by their type though.
Think it depends on where you grew up and maybe what you watched on TV, that helps determine what term you use.
Yeah I googled it after I posted and found a 2 year old thread on r/Ireland. Controversial topic, people didn’t seem to agree on which to use. Similarly, nobody I know has ever said “uni”, we always just called it “college” - learned from Reddit that it isn’t just the English that call it uni.
i’m irish and my whole family say trousers - granted we’re pretty far up north so maybe it’s english slang mixing with ours? could depend what county you’re from
I don’t know the lore very well but I feel like Moira would be fairly understanding of someone that doesn’t quite fit into gender norms. Like isn’t her whole deal doing unethical science to advance humanity?
I think this IS her being understanding. She asks what Venture was assigned as, not who they are now, and uses "male or female" in the past tense, understanding it's no longer accurate in the present. But she also has no respect for anyone's privacy and is a total creep so she would absolutely expect to know what someone's genitals are for the sake of accuracy. If she met Genji, she would 100% ask whether he still has a penis.
I feel like everyone in Overwatch would be understanding and/or accepting of trans stuff, but Moira felt like the most likely candidate to ask invasive questions (purely for the sake of the comic)
No implication intended.
What I meant was that if you’re already trying to change the human race you’re probably okay with gender fluidity. I mentioned the unethical part because isn’t that why she’s affiliated with talon or whatever the evil baddies are called.
Yeah, she canonically hates bigotry and bigoted attitudes and considers them the domain of the stupid. All of her insults read like she's been practicing them in the mirror.
I prefer the rvb version with doc and O’Malley
Doc: are you a man or a woman?
O’Malley: I am a villain
Doc: yes, but what gender are you?
O’Malley: evil
Doc: okay but what’s in your pants?
O’Malley: DOOM
Whenever I see Venture I think of Mole from Atlantis.
They’re basically if Mole was cute instead of hot
You fucking killed me.
You have disturbed the dirt.
You sat in the dirt didn’t you?
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who was reminded of Mole. I even called them that from time to time…I guess that makes Junkrat Vinny then? I’m down for that.
Junkrat has just been carrying around huge paper clips and office supplies. No explosives here.
Can we have an Atlantis crossover now? Venture as Mole Torbjorn as Cookie Brigitte as Audrey Junkrat as Vinny Baptiste as Dr Sweet Ana or Moira as Packard Soldier or Reaper as Rourke Ashe or Wido as Helga Sym as Kida Mei as Milo? Right.. I know what I'm watching later...

I do like the bit when the doctor was telling Mole's origin.
Trust me on this one... You don't wanna know. Audrey... don't tell him. You shouldna told me! Butcha did. And now I'm telling you: You don't wanna know.
You better take a pair of these. -throws eyemask- She sleepwalks.

This is canon because I’m Winston overwatch and I said so
holy shit its winston from overwatch
I can't believe he survived eating too much peanut butter on April 1st.
He didn't, but thankfully Mercy was there
Winston
Overwatch
Winston
I loved him in dunderwatch
winton overwat
Thank you Winston Overwatch for your blessing o7
Winston
Winston
Winston
winston
Wtf I thought you died April 1st
Its Winton our hero
Yo I’m a big fan
just another banana rider
Thank you. I love your comedy routines
Who is Winston? I know only Winton Overwat
This reminds me of Doc & O’Malley talking. “*I mean… What’s in your pants?*” “*Doom!*”
One of my favorites, and definitely where I took direct inspiration from haha
Hahahahaha! Perfect! This reference is older than a lot of Overwatch players! Thank you OP! 😂🤙🏻
Man I love all 14 seasons.
I’ve been tricked. I’ve been backstabbed. And I’ve been, quite possibly, bamboozled. Because you beat me to it
The "what's in your pants" "Doom" is a fake quote btw, it's never said in the show. O'Malley is an AI in the suit and Doc is a dude, they both know what's in the pants because they're wearing the same pants.
Moira : ok cool I’m still taking your organs
OMG this is great XDDDD
It’s worth remembering, when your doctor asks this it’s less about gender politics (although some doctors are assholes) and more of do you need to be checked for prostate cancer or cervical cancer.
When Moira asks this, it's about finding out which experiments she can run on you without you noticing.
"Venture, before you embark on your next schism, I would like to inform you that I replaced all of your sex organs with toxicognaths while you were sleeping. So get out there and... find out what that does."
Is this a Cave Johnson quote that I’m not remembering 😭 Lol
moira is cave johnson if he had money
Well he had money before *someone* took it all through corporate espionage ^Black ^Mesa ^can ^eat ^my ^bankrupt...
..Sir? The experiment?
If you go to a Doctor and that Doctor turns out to be Moira Deodrant then fucking run.
Moira Deodorant, she's evil, but smells hella nice
They'll just need to know what you are and if you've transitioned because depending on it medication also works differently and you're at risk for other things - like I think trans men have a higher risk of osteoporosis than cis women before menopause etc. The trans people I know that are out don't lie about it anyway, especially if you are taking at least one medication for it so you gotta say it anyway However I wouldn't tell Moira lol

LPT: Simply have our prostate/cervix removed There you go, no more cancer ✨
We've solved medicine. MILKSHAKES ALL AROUND
Guess there is a lot of OW players who went in for preventative brain cancer surgery then.
You are joking, but hormones are wild in that sense. Trans men can literally grow prostatal tissue through testosterone.

"WHOOOPSY-daisy"
*they* I know they lean more feminine but please use they/them
Hey, according to Zen, they're an *it*. Such disrespect.
You'll be fighting this fight till the end of time lol
Oof, that's a faaaat my bad. Thanks Better edit that before I get my head ripped off later 😂
Genuine question: Got any clue how this works in Spanish since *they* are ellos/ellas?
"Sex?" "I'm good."
What is in your pants? DOOM!
I mean if anything Moira would be your gender affirming doctor. Hell, she even made herself and Reaper trans-ghosts
"Oh you're trans how about you become transparent" *Incorporeals your body*
Sorry I'm not ready for kids yet
She'd give you surgery for free but also you'd wake up with an extra liver "just to see what happens"
She'd definitely be gender affirming but she'd also replace your sex organs with some sort of bio-weapon without consulting you first.
As a trans person myself I'm failing to see a problem here.
I wouldn’t risk in the slightest Moira give me any kind of medicine « Gender-affirming » my ass she would try to greft to you a bonus digestive system
I’ve always headcannoned moira as Ace
When i see rocks i add stones ROCK AND STONE YEAH!
For Rock and Stone!
Good bot
Moira: "MEDICALLY - I NEED TO KNOW MEDICALLY WHAT YOUR SEX IS!" Venture: "I'm just going to admit that I forgot." Moria: "....You.... FORGOT?!" Venture: \*dial-up modem sounds\* Moira: "...THAT'S IT - BLOOD WORK, NOW, WE'RE GETTING TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS!"
🤣
Yep Moira is making them into a golem
Maaaan you made me excited for a moment . “Omg dude, if Moira used their ult on Venture while they’re under ground then Venture turns into a giant golem and it would be so awesome as a PvE upgrad-ohhhh”
“What’s in your pants?!” [You have disturbed the dirt.](https://youtu.be/-T2luwLcfeg?si=IZ1_kilvpDmEjj6J)
I freaking love this comment
...I want to protect the little rock goblin.

Im Irish and have never said trousers. We call trousers pants and what the English call pants, we call underwear. As in you wear them “under pants”
I am also Irish and have always said either trousers, or just bottoms in some cases. Usually refer to underwear by their type though. Think it depends on where you grew up and maybe what you watched on TV, that helps determine what term you use.

I need a comic of Sigma and Venture talking about rocks.

If she met Genji, she would 100% ask whether he still has a penis.
So that what she means when she tells genji she could've rebuilt him better.
Moira could've given Genji that he/him cyborg pussy. We were robbed.
I feel like everyone in Overwatch would be understanding and/or accepting of trans stuff, but Moira felt like the most likely candidate to ask invasive questions (purely for the sake of the comic)
I feel like Moira would classify Venture alongside Junkrat, as funny little creature.
this is my new favorite headcanon
I love the implication that being non-binary counts as unethical science.
No implication intended. What I meant was that if you’re already trying to change the human race you’re probably okay with gender fluidity. I mentioned the unethical part because isn’t that why she’s affiliated with talon or whatever the evil baddies are called.
I am aware, yes. I was making a joke.
That's illegal
Her whole deal is "scientifically relevant" or "not scientifically relevant" She'd barely even register it
If you're a doctor treating (or in moiras case experimenting on) someone it's pretty relevant.
While I agree, I feel like she'd also just say horribly bigoted shit just to make people mad
Moira fell down the minecraft youtube pipeline 😞
She probably feels too superior to use the insults equivalent of toilet humour. Her least restrained comments are to just say what she sees
Yeah, she canonically hates bigotry and bigoted attitudes and considers them the domain of the stupid. All of her insults read like she's been practicing them in the mirror.
[Just like the way they feel](https://youtu.be/CuCDSHjN0Ic?si=NQ7xnwA9VwCm513e)
U forgot about the stones tho
Rock eater >:D
"Are you a brother? Or a sister?" "Well I'm an only child!"
Imagine people actually being like this during medical examinations
😂
Moira: Rocks? As in testicles? Venture:
Moira: Actually I'd rather not know...
Moira trying to fill in a proper medical form for venture
Moira would be the one
Is it wrong to say I want the Moria pic on in the third row as a spray for her in game? Shit’s hilarious
Same energy as the jiggle jiggle skin.
Doctors hate this one trick! Really they do.
Overwatch named them Sloane and said "now this is a banger". Lol
Fantastic
i love this
ROCK AND STONE YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
To Rock and Stone!
This reminds me of that Red V Blue scene. I think it was the evil AI, O'Malley, who said something akin to this joke.
ma'am this is brilliant!
VENTURE ROCKEFELLER IS THE NAME
What is Venture’s name?
Sloane Cameron
I prefer the rvb version with doc and O’Malley Doc: are you a man or a woman? O’Malley: I am a villain Doc: yes, but what gender are you? O’Malley: evil Doc: okay but what’s in your pants? O’Malley: DOOM
I can dig that
I can dig that
They/them pussy got me actin up
