On one particular day, they were tasked with securing an important payload. As they made their way through enemy territory, Junkrat suggested taking a shortcut through an abandoned building. But Mei disagreed, saying that it would be safer to take the longer route, which had been cleared by the Overwatch team.
"Come on, Frosty! We don't have all day," Junkrat argued. "This way will save us time and energy."
"We cannot risk our safety like that. What if the building has traps or enemies hiding in it?" Mei replied, determined to take the safer option.
Junkrat rolled his eyes, "Blah Blah Blah. Always so safe. That's why we move so slowly and get nowhere fast."
Mei was getting frustrated with Junkrat's recklessness, "I'm not playing it safe, I'm being cautious. It's a lot better than putting ourselves in unnecessary danger."
But Junkrat wasn't about to back down, "You're just scared, that's all. Scared to go off the beaten path and take a risk. That's not what the mission is about, Mei."
Mei bristled at the insult, "I'm not scared. I know the risks and I want to minimize them. We have a mission to accomplish, and I won't let your impulsive behavior jeopardize it."
Their argument escalated further, with Junkrat insisting on taking the shortcut and Mei sticking with the safer option. He gives up on arguing and picks her up, carrying her through the abandoned building.
To Mei's surprise, there were no enemies. Junkrat was right. This fact made her particularly angry as she hates being wrong, especially to someone such as Junkrat. "Okay, Okay! Put me down now!"
Junkrat grins. "As you wish, Ice Queen." He quips, putting her down gently. She glares at him. "That was not funny. And I can't believe you were right.."
He hums happily in response. "Believe it! I'm right and you're wrong!"
Mei scowls and crosses her arms. "I will literally strangle you."
He snickers. "If you could even reach.."
She begins to chase him around the building, Junkrat yelling as he runs away. "Oi! I only have one good leg!"
