Jack couldn't remember the last time that the watch point had felt this alive. The only things he had been focused on had been the bad times. He could never forget those times, nor would he have done things differently, but it was easy to lose focus on all that negativity when you have so many new faces that are all there for the same reasons. He felt his lips curl into a small smile behind his mask as he watched people slowly flow into the area.

Even though he was in a better mood, he still wasn't much for decorations. Thankfully Ana had enlisted the help of a few others to make the shoddy little tabled area into quite a welcoming sight. One large banner was hanging between buildings, the sight a bit close to the cliff though Jack was sure that he wouldn't need to worry about anyone falling off.

Zipping right by him in a slightly blue streak, Lena had soon set up quite a few balloons and streamers. She zipped back over to Ana, grabbing a noisemaker and putting it in her mouth.

"I'll go and get any stragglers real quick, bee arr bee!" With another flash, the woman was gone.

Jack wasn't sure how many of the old members would be showing up. He hadn't exactly been on speaking terms with many, apart from Lena, Ana and Angela. The latter had been one of his first picks, knowing that if there was any one role they needed filled, it would be a medic. He took a breath as he noted the younger girl from earlier walking closer, along with the Junker duo that he had really not expected much from. Tagging along with the shorter, twitchier one was Mei. He recalled the scientist and what she had been through, surprised that she had come back so eagerly.

He made his way over to them, wanting to once again thank the junkers for their bravery in bringing back their team. As he walked towards them, he felt an odd sensation. Something inside him was... nervous? He had been on his own for a while and hadn't had much interaction outside of giving orders and missions, so the thought of lighthearted talking was daunting indeed. Would he even be able to say the right thing? Could he sound like he wasn't about to give more orders?

"Did you need something Mr. 76?" Mei's voice snapped Jack out of his thoughts, the man nodding quickly before looking towards the pair of still dusty an ragged looking men.

"Yeah, just wanted to tell these guys that they did well. I know it's probably not as exciting as an international crime spree..." Junkrat gave a slightly nervous giggle before looking up at Hog, the large man doing little outside of breathing heavily.

"But I willing to pay you both extra if you feel the need for going outside the lines of what you had been hired for." Jack looked at Junkrat, assuming correctly that he was the talker.

Junkrat got a bit wide eyed with excitement at the prospect of more money, grinning as he went to speak.

"Well mate, since you're offerin' and all, I'm sure we can work someth-grk!" Mei silenced the man with an elbow to the side, her lips pursed a she stared him down.

"Ehehehe... I mean uh... no worries... sir! I was just tellin' Mei here that that mission was more than enough compensation, considering I got to blow up some bots!" The man grinned once more, Mei sighing and shaking her head in a slightly embarrassed way.

Jack nodded before looking at the silent man, looking him over carefully. There was a reason that these two had come as a package. This one was the protection, the muscle. Before Jack could even ask, the man's low voice rumbled out.

"Excitement was payment enough..." Hog then walked away, heading towards the food tables that were now being stocked by Ana and Hana. As the large man went to grab something, Ana smacked his hand while Hana started to list off why he had to wait, rather bravely considering their difference in size.

"Oi, better go keep him calm before one of 'em gets tossed off the cliff!" Junkrat quickly made his way over to his partner in crime, with Mei waving at Jack before she followed.

Lena soon returned, blowing on her noisemaker rather obnoxiously as a few more faces showed up, Jack taking mental notes of those he knew and those that he needed to make time for, his eyes resting on Fareeha as she spoke with Ana. That was one discussion that had taken far too long already. Of course now was not the time or place for such a heavy moment.

Jack made his way towards the group, hearing something large coming from behind him. Turning, he quickly got passed by Winston, who was eagerly heading for the table that had a large thing of peanut butter sitting in the middle of it. The man chuckled as he continued to walk towards the table and his new team, doing his best to not dwell on the past.

Standing at the front of the table, Jack looked over the group. They all had plates in front of them and were looking towards him like a father figure, waiting for him to say that they were allowed to eat. The solider looked each one of them over slowly, before taking a deep breath and bringing his hands up to the corners of his mask, his fingers clutching the thing as he prepared to reveal himself to them all.

"Oh! Miss Angela is finally here!" Hana squeaked out suddenly, Jack's fingers slipping from his mask as he looked over to find himself staring at a piece of his past.

Out of all the things that Angela could have worn, Jack was unsure what made her bring out that old costume. His fingers clenched into fists slightly as he remembered having told her to destroy those suits. He grit his teeth as he quickly walked over to the woman, meeting her before she could make her way to the table.

"Good afternoon Jack, I see you all started without me? No worries, I did take a little long. Been a while since I've had this suit fitted, had to make a few slight adjustments to certain areas." Mercy smiled at the man in a very odd way, her tone overly sweet and leaning towards flirtation as the woman giggled at the obviously stretched fabric that covered her breasts.

"Why do you still have that suit Angela? I told you to destroy it." Jack felt his blood boiling a bit from how light Angela was making this out to be, as if she had forgotten what the red, devilish looking costume had been a part of.

"You've told me quite a few things Jack and if I had listened to you every time, we might not even be here." The woman smiled and slid a finger along the man's chest as she slipped by him with a slight whisper.

"Now if you'll excuse me... I have a party to liven up."

With that, Mercy made her way towards the table of people, a large smile on her face as she slipped through the food and sat down at the head of it, where Jack had just come from. She looked among the people and waved her hands at them.

"Well come now, eat!"

A few strange looks were given, but nobody objected and they were all soon digging in. Mercy grinned and did the same, though she kept her eye on Fareeha, unable to keep her eyes from the woman who had given her such a raise in confidence mere hours before.

Jack turned to watch his team eat, staring at Angela with a mix of slight anger and confusion. This wasn't like her, she wasn't usually the face of anything. He turned and made his way back, suddenly not as hungry as before. He stood beside Ana, simply watching the scene as his mind faded back to when Angela had worn that costume for it's first and only mission.
