Genciotober Day 6: Indirect Kiss /
Tied Up/GraveMore G-rated fluff. 436 words.
His most devoted fans — self-proclaimed ‘Lúnatics’ — have collected a series of photos and vids of the international megastar on stage making a strange gesture at the cameras over the past several months. Some sleuthing from these eagle-eyed devotees finally paid off: Deaf fans have identified the gesture as Brazilian sign language for “kiss.” [See this video from our staff to find out how to do it yourself!]
While many of the Lúnatics want to believe it’s for the fans, most of us have to concede that our favorite pop star might have someone special in mind. Lúcio himself has declined comment on the subject, but he hasn’t denied rumors that he’s dating! Who could the lucky person be?
Here at BuzzBook, we’ve compiled a list of our top five favorites for this Brazilian cutie’s secret sweetheart:
1. Hana Song, aka D.Va
Easily the biggest contender! The two are open admirers of each others’ work and have been spotted together many times over the past year! Between their hectic lifestyles of heroism, jet-setting, and the public spotlight, is this one way the LDR keeps the love alive?
Genji snorted and skimmed through the rest, Hana’s chin hung over his shoulder. “I’m not even on the list!”
“Sorry, loverboy, you can’t compete with this star quality,” she chirped gleefully, smacking her gum in his ear. Genji huffed. “Isn’t that what you wanted?” she asked. “Total anonymity.”
“I— yes,” he said with a slow vent of air. “Yes, it’s for the best.” And it was, of course. Genji wasn’t even supposed to be alive, and he had no desire to suffer the intensive scrutiny Hana and Lúcio lived with.
Of course, maybe one day. They’d talked about it. Genji was entirely too aware that his body could be politicized—that with the right sort of management, the kind Lúcio and Hana had, he could be the one to do it and on his terms—that Lúcio’s spotlight shining on a public relationship with a cyborg could go a long way for omnics and so many others.
But not yet. He didn’t even like strangers on the street looking at him. He sighed again and scrolled back up to one of the pictures, Lúcio signing out his publicly private kiss for Genji after weeks apart, and he grinned a little.
“It’s for the best for now,” he said. “But still: you?”
Hana cackled and reached over him for the tablet, this time to find him a fan holovid arguing passionately against the BuzzBook’s list by speculating wildly about Hana herself. “Oh yeah, me. I’m dating literally everyone.”
