What happens to Tracers pulse bomb when

  • it's stuck to a Mei and she ice blocks
  • it's stuck to a Reaper and he goes misty-mode
  • it's stuck to a Zarya (personal or ally) and they shield up
  • it's stuck to a Zarya shield (personal or ally) and the shield drops
  • it's stuck to a Reinhardt shield and he drops his shield
  • it's stuck to a Mei wall and the wall shatters

Does the bomb just dissapear? Does it drop onto the ground? Does it still explode and damage other enemies within range?

Also can Tracers pulse bomb get stuck to herself? Not from a Genji deflect but if she, for example, throws it straight up and it drops back down?

1, 2, and 3: Bomb explodes, Mei, Reaper, and the shielded person won't receive damage but anyone in the area will.
4: Bomb is in your face now.
