[There where very few times where Genji's anger and frustration had been directly aimed at Angela, and even when it wasn't she had taken his outbursts with composure. Maybe he really did blame her, maybe he didn't- in the end she could only do what she could.
She doesn't so much as blink when Genji removes his mask, instead feeling almost relieved. She had sensed it back in the tent when he first spoke, but seeing his face now she could truly see that a happier Genji was sitting in front of her. A warm feeling rises in her chest and she finds herself smiling again- though what he says next takes her by surprise.
There were lines that she had crossed when Genji had been under her care, she can't deny that. When Morrison had told her that Reyes was interested in having Genji in Blackwatch, she had fought against the idea. Ultimately it was Genji's choice to make, but she made that clear whenever the opportunity arose- that he didn't need to become something he didn't want to be.
It's not as if they stopped seeing each other once he was transferred to Blackwatch, and maybe that's why the rumors started. Angela had been baffled, but maybe the idea of a forbidden romance was more exciting than the thought of her having basic empathy. And she did see Genji a lot- why wouldn't she? It was easier for the medical staff if she remained his primary doctor.]
Genji, I helped in the investigation that ended Overwatch. [She has to laugh, looking almost sheepish. Genji had left before then, but now that they're sitting here talking about it it feels a little awkward.] I don't know if Winston even intended for me to receive his message.
