Summary
Only four years into being Mecha Man, Robert is still trying to figure things out. Things won't get any easier when he has a run in with a certain potty-mouthed villainess.
Au. Pre-canon invisimech.

Summary
Centered around Robert and Courtney. Some quiet (extra) moments during the game's timeline, then mostly picking up after the events of the game. Robert and Courtney's romance, Mandy's challenges returning to being Blazer, Coupe's struggles returning to the team, and eventually, an old face from Courtney's past, who might have a role in the team's future. A little bit of angst, a lot of fluff, and plenty of smut.

Summary
What do Courtney and Robert's texts to each other look like on any given day? Surprisingly more domestic than the rest of Z-Team assumed.
(published 2025/11/24 - completed main story 2026/07/08: if you ever see this on page 1, I've put out some new side piece!)

Summary
Two months after Shroud’s death—or, more accurately, murder—Mecha Man and Invisibitch meet again while on the trail of two leads that are somehow connected. Each one of them holds a different piece of the same puzzle. Naturally, it makes sense the hero and villain partner up to solve the mystery surrounding the sudden resurgence of augments in the black market.
Only one problem: neither Robert nor Courtney has forgotten what transpired between them in the secrecy of SDN’s locker room. Haunted by the memory of a desperate kiss, and fueled by desires fast-swimming to surface, the line between business and work affair soon gets blurred.
The two start something they really shouldn’t.
Featuring: Anti-Hero Robert / Villain Courtney / It's Complicated / Failed to Save LA.

Robert has powers of technopathy. Retelling of Dispatch's story, but this time Robert has some powers, which he tends to dismiss.

Summary
No matter which way you slice it, putting on a set of colorful tights to go running around fighting other people in costumes is a deeply ridiculous thing to do. But when you come from a whole bloodline of weirdos that do this, or are born with powers that seemingly railroad you towards a more sinister path, the things that end up happening to you don't feel quite so silly. Sometimes what befalls you, and the things you end up doing to others, end up affecting you in ways you'd never expect.
A series of one-shots diving deeper into the characters of Dispatch Season 1 to help me cope with the wait for Season 2. The events of the first game are mostly done but need a lot of editing, and I've added some new details to set up what I have in mind for events post Episode 8.

Summary
After nearly dying on the job, Robert Robertson III returns to Torrance, CA and reunites with his family... mostly. While his mother, his sister, and Chase are all happy to welcome him home, his father is too busy as usual. This time, he's running for governor. At least until the FBI arrests Robbie for crimes he insists he didn't commit.
Robert, after vowing not to work in the news industry again, joins the Southland Daily News (SDN) team as a producer. On day one, Robert clashes with a young reporter named Courtney Soledad. Their relationship shifts from adversarial to tense to something more complicated.
It doesn't help when Robert breaks his promise to stay objective, opting to investigate his father's case and who Elliot Connors is.

Summary
Defeating the Red Ring seems like the easy part. With Shroud dead, Robert returns home to find Invisigal waiting for him in his bedroom. Deliriously exhausted, Robert interrogates the now former Z-Team member. Soon, none of that seems to matter when Robert finds Visi in the midst of a severe asthma attack.
With the help of Mandy, the two reconcile. Robert invites Visi back to the team, but they can't savor the reunion for long—Mandy and Robert receive an email threatening to reveal who Mecha Man really is. As the Z-Team finds a balance, one ex-Red Ring member disrupts it all. Yet, it brings Robert and Visi closer. Eventually, their relationship becomes an asset to the Z-Team as they prepare for another takedown.

Super horny post villain ending. Surprise Robert and Courtney get anything done in between banging each other.

Summary
A year into their relationship, Robert and Courtney are thriving, for the most part, with a shared home, stable careers, and mostly positive publicity. As the Phoenix Program grows, new faces and new challenges begin to appear.
Sometimes being a hero means becoming someone who would have protected you when you needed it. Sometimes facing the past is the only way to heal from it. And sometimes a family can be a college dropout with powers she can't control, her Emotional Support Couple, and an overweight chihuahua.
Sequel to my series "Our Own Normal," but you don't necessarily need to have read that.

Summary
After the Red Ring’s attack, Courtney and Robert are left to face the part of heroism no one cheers for—the aftermath. Injuries, secrets, and close calls force them to confront feelings they can’t joke away or outrun. As their partnership begins to shift into something deeper, the pressure of saving a city that never stops needing them threatens to pull them apart before they’ve even figured out what they are.
Together, they’ll have to learn how to carry the weight of their pasts, lean on each other in times of need, and decide if the cost of being a hero is worth it.

Summary
Six months after the night everything fell apart, Robert has buried himself in the life of Mecha Man, while Courtney hunts the remnants of the Red Ring in an attempt to wash the blood from her hands.

Summary
Invisibitch only joined the Red Ring to get the augments she needs to manage her asthma. She didn't count on Shroud's mysterious second-in-command, Reaper, taking an interest in her. As the two get closer despite their better judgement, secrets are revealed that threaten both their lives.
Or, the Red Ring InvisiMech AU that no one asked for.

Summary
Robert Robertson came to New York to play Orpheus.
He didn’t expect to find a home.
A slow-burn Broadway romance following Robert and Courtney through an entire run of Hadestown—from first rehearsals to closing night and beyond. Featuring found family, backstage chaos, opening nights, snow-covered New York, lots of kissing, plenty of theater nerdiness, and two people discovering that the greatest love story of their lives wasn’t the one they performed onstage… it was the one they built together.
Or the Broadway Actor love story au for Invisimech NO ONE asked for! Sue me as a theater kid AND Dispatch being my #1 fixation!
