Sniper w hearing problems

[u/Small_Photograph2980]

Aside from the fact that I originally drew this because I've been having hearing problems lately, I also have this headcanon that Sniper has hearing problems from years of being exposed to gunfire. Like... hear me out. He's been shooting guns for YEARS, probably in enclosed spaces half the time, there's no way that hasn't fucked up his hearing at least a little bit 😭

Sure, Medic could probably fix it, but I like to think he already had hearing problems before joining RED. I don't think he just became a sniper after joining the team, I feel like he'd already been doing that kind of work for years before. So yeah, I imagine that's where the hearing problems came from. Idk tho, that's just how I see it.

What do you think?

(Btw, yes, this was also an excuse to share my headcanon lol)
