As the crowd gathers, Lena considers Widowmaker’s possible motivations.
Tracer gets the package from Winston; she’d already begun to expect Talon’s involvement in the assassination.
Lena *really* should know by now not to go into dangerous situations without her Acceleration….

Robot uprising.
Good color artwork. Second series of milieu. Tracer is a junior member of overwatch. Part of a lesbian couple. Feels a lot of angst. Getting involved with the robot underground while sparks are about to turn into full fledged war.
