Boombox

Boombox is the slash ship between Junkrat and Lúcio from the Overwatch fandom.

Canon
When Australia was turned into a wasteland after the omnic wars, the people left alive became "Junkers". They scavenge the land and force a cutthroat society. Junkrat was one of the junkers and worked reclaiming materials from the ruins. The lingering radiation caused him to go mad, making him ideal for handling explosives which he became obsessed with. He found a valuable treasure in the ruins, causing him to come to fame and be pursued by bounty hunters and thieves. He hired a bodyguard, Roadhog, in exchange for half the share from the spoils. The two left the outback and embarked on an international crime spree.

Lúcio Correia dos Santos took up DJing as a hobby when he grew up in Rio. When the Vishkar Corporation took control of Rio, Lúcio stole the sonic technology that his Father had invented for the company and led the citizens against the company. Vishkar was forced out of the city, and Lúcio's music career began to gain popularity around the world.
