I never got your thoughts from this, but what did you think about the McSombra fic The Woman With No Name by Mmmph?

In all seriousness, it’s my favorite Mcsombra fanfic. I know why some people wouldn’t like it or give it a chance because of it’s rating (which, in my honest opinion, doesn’t even qualify as an ‘E’ rated fic – it’s so tame)…and even though the events in the story don’t really follow canon (not that I care – what even IS canon in this damn game?)…I think it’s just a freaking sweet story.

I just really love how McCree, Sombra, Mercy, Soldier 76, and even Reaper and Widow are characterized…to me it felt very natural. All the while reading it, I could feel that old ‘gunslinger’ charm from McCree that I got when watching old western movies. And their relationship was cute – it started out as what you’d expect from Sombra – just using McCree as an extension to go after what she truly wants but eventually she regrets it. 

How can I say it…it’s almost like a pure romance story, even with a character as non-romantic as Sombra as the heroine. I think I ended up really attaching myself to the story because up until that point, most fics for Mcsombra were either a) unfinished b) pure smut or c) both. This fic was the first that had some sort of plot, was written well, and yes, included more adult elements, but ended on a very sweet note. It’s definitely my feel good story. I re-read it quite often. And I will forever be in debt to Mmmph for creating one of my top 5 fanfiction ever. 

I wish the Mcsombra tag on Ao3 had more of these gems…
