I’m sure most people are aware of the shootings that happened early this morning (around 2am) at Pulse in Orlando, Florida. As a queer person who not only lives in Orlando, but as someone who literally went to high school and grew up one block over from Pulse, I want to put out some super awesome resources for the internet to take advantage of! Please remember that last night was specifically Latin Night, so not only was this an anti-LGBTQIA+ act of violence, it was also an anti-latinx act of violence. I grew up in this area, and I visited Pulse multiple times, and it was most definitely a predominantly latinx/black club. This attack was carefully planned, I have no doubts about this.

A while back, I saw a post where you could listen to “Reaper’s line in his native language” since he’s Latino.
You see, I’m Latino, and the problem with that post was that they had taken his lines from European Spanish, (like the difference between UK and US english) as awesome as the voice was, that’s not quite what he’d sound like. So here are all his unlockable voice lines in Latin American Spanish!: D
just yesterday I was mentioning ‘you know I bet he actually sounds way more intimidating/better in spanish’ and hey guess what
Several people have pointed this out already, but here’s a clear mp3 of what Junkrat says sometimes after killing an enemy Roadhog in-game. If tumblr won’t play it on the dashboard, go to the permalink page for it here.
Junkrat: Guess we know who’s really on top, don’t we?!
Headcanon with Kristybob that Roadhog is actually rather fastidious and (sorta) makes sure Junkrat is the same, resulting in one angry spicy burrito at bathtime.
