A wonderful story of mending wounds that introduces us to the softer side of Symmetra, a talented architech who struggles to find beauty in imperfection. Zenyatta helps her see that beauty doesn't exist despite our flaws, but because of them. He reminds her that "Perfect art is sterile. True art is like any kind of true thing…flawed, and glorious because of those flaws. Just as we are."



~~SPOILER QUOTES~~



Some other of my favorite quotes in the story:

"Nature is not perfect. Certainly art should not be."

"Instead of hiding something broken, celebrate it."

"You have taught me that much in the world is sacred, even if it first seems ordinary."

"There is energy in the new, but there is power in the ancient."

"And so, the statue had not been replaced. It had been transformed."

“Forgive me. I misjudged you. This couldn’t be more perfect.”
“Yes, it could,” Satya said. “That is precisely the point.”

“But I have learned that we do not need to understand how someone
thinks in order to respect them.” Or even, she thought, be their friend. ( )
