    Summary

    "Victor, you ok?" Robert asked as he walked over.
    "I thought about what others said today. When talking about Invisigal." He said solemnly.
    Robert stops, and tenses.
    "Well, I'm thinking about it too. But, what's up?"
    "Did..." Victor began to rub his shoulder. "I cause her to get captured?"
    "What do you mean?" Robert asked. Worried.
    "I wanted to shut off your computer because I wanted to help more. All I did was silence a possible call for help."
    ---
    A "What-If" in which an act of kindness by Victor for Robert at the end of the party in EP6, ends up getting Invisigal captured by mercs hired by The Red Ring, and ends up costing them all dearly. However, one last rebellious act by Invisigal before her capture, and by sheer chance, gives them time and hope. The Pulse is still anyone's game, but first they must heal.

    Summary

    It's cut day, and Coupe, Invisigal, and Sonar are at the bottom of the list. Only one of them takes coke on the job, has random transformations that make him unreliable, and can be manipulated by any pretty woman who glances his way. For Robert, it's an easy decision.

    Malevola sees things differently. She sees a dispatcher who sends a recovering addict to a drug bust, who doesn't even try to use the transformations to the Z-Team's advantage, and . . . well, even she can't deny the last. But she knows that being cut means losing not just a job -hard for any felon to find-, but stability, support, and any path to recovery.

    A demoness who takes the pain and injuries of others to heal them, and a man who can't stop getting hurt as he starts giving his team everything he can -what can they do together?
