Summary
Malevola has him pinned against her side, hanging onto him like she’s afraid he’s going to get swallowed by the drunken crowd. Sonar is on her other side, ears glowing faintly with the strobe lights as he knocks into her repeatedly.
Visi swings by, wipes the corner of his mouth, then disappears. Hot hands find his head a second- seconds? minutes? later. The flash of orange and black coming closer has him swaying dangerously to catch whatever Flambae starts to mutter against his ear. Something about shitty music?
Coop saunters past with a glint of metal, prying the empty tumbler from his hand. Punch Up appears with a full one to replace it. It makes his face flush when he takes a swig.
“Yo! Anyone seen Golem?” Prism pushes through. She’s got Waterboy by the wrist; She might be about to use him to purposely slip people and get them out of her way. Phenomaman is floating after them.
Visi comes back again, this time with Blazer holding on for dear life. They’re hugging like it’s the end of the world instead of just being drunk in a shitty bar. Blazer smiles, dimples showing. His vision swims.
The whiskey burns. So does the ache in his chest.

Summary
Robert was human.
He felt pain, emotionally at least, felt joy, occasionally at least, and he even looked after Beef. Because why would he care about a dog if he wasn't human?
Yes, his body was made up of metal and wires, and he didn't eat or drink or breath. But what did that matter?AU where Robert is an AI that controls the Mecha Man armour.

Summary
In which Invisigal is handling this soooo normally. She’s not spiraling at all about Mecha Man joining SDN as her goddamn dispatcher. The way she’s thinking about the guy she nearly exploded to death is normal. So normal. She can be normal helping the guy out with something as simple as a headache. AKA: Vizi battles her demons while Robert has a migraine after hours. It’s so normal.

Summary
“Does it ever bother you?" Blazer asked. "That the public doesn’t know? I mean, most of us keep our identities secret, but that’s a pretty big part of yourself to hide from everyone.”
Robert swirled her drink a little as though she might find the truth written at the bottom of the glass. It felt right to give the question some thought instead of defaulting to her usual jokes and quips.
“Nah,” she said eventually, and knew that she meant it. “I am Mecha Man, and Mecha Man is me. Or at least he was, before he got Fourth of July’ed in the background of a TikTok dancing video. What a shitty way to go.”

Summary
After defeating Shroud, LA is left in large chunks of ruin. This includes, but is not limited to, Robert’s shitty apartment. Good riddance, he supposes.
Naturally, not wanting to dampen Chase’s newly good mood and burden him, he turns to the Z-Team for help. While eager to aid him, they’re questionable roommates at best.

Summary
There are moments that cry out to be fulfilled.
Like, telling someone you love them.
Or giving your money away, all of it.Your heart is beating, isn’t it?
You’re not in chains, are you?There is nothing more pathetic than caution
when headlong might save a life,
even, possibly, your own.
-Mary Oliver, "Moments"Stories that exist in conversation with the "my love, for you will never change" series by Sroloc_Elbisivni and Triscribe.
Focused on a world (or worlds) where Imu/Dragon may have happened, for better or for worse.

Summary
King the Wildfire, last of his tribe, receives a miracle in the form of a young Lunarian. Making him not last, after all.
Said miracle is certainly annoyed to be one in the first place. But the thing about miracles is that they don't change just ONE thing. They change the world.
Amaya (the miracle in question), full of One Piece lore, aims to do just that.Series

Summary
The doors swing open.
"S-sorry I'm late!"
Mandy holds back a sigh of relief, before turning to smile at the newcomer. "No worries, Waterboy. Take a seat and we'll… start…"
She blinks. Once, then twice. Then—
"Oh. Wow. You look—"
"You actually look fuckable, what the hell," Courtney wheezes, sounding just as stunned as Mandy feels. Neither notice the sound of Prism's phone shutter clicking multiple times.

Summary
“It’s not a real kid, Chase.”
Chase is technically underage, he’s a year away from being able to drink but the bartender didn’t bother to check his ID. Chase has always looked a little older than he was, it works in his favor now.
Nobody at a hero bar like this would assume he was so young.
“How the fuck do you think that?” Chase asks, spits. His hands still shake with the memory of it. The beer in his hand shakes with the tremors of his hands. “How the fuck do you do it?”
Mechaman sighs, deep, disappointed. He leans back, taking his whiskey with him.
The rest of the Brave Brigade was downstairs, drinking in victory, dancing with the other heroes, celebrating.
“It’s the Astral Pulse.”

Summary
Slowly, Robert stands up. He’s shivering. He looks sick. His eyes are glassy, and Invisigal blinks. He hadn’t looked like that just a few moments ago. What the hell is he coming down with that it’s hitting him so hard and fast? . The door to his cell is unlocked. He doesn’t fight when he is roughly grabbed and shoved into the hallway. Robert looks over at Invisigal.
“Please,” he mumbles. He’s hunching forward, like he’s going to start trying to crawl out of his own skin. A million alarms are going off in Invisigal’s head, but there’s nothing she can do about them, “Whatever happens, stay in the cells.”
or
Robert has been keeping a secret for over a decade now, only for a late night kidnapping to bring it out into the (moon)light.

Summary
What would happen if after the karaoke night, instead of disappearing, Flambae found Robert’s apartment and came to finish the job?
—
Beyond tired, muscles screaming, he lets it happen when Chad fists a hand in his hair and hauls his face close. “I don’t kill puppies,” he says, insulted.
Robert swallows around a bolus in his throat and his vision clouds. He sees it now, signposted between the legs where Chad’s groin presses to his. “Am I a puppy in this scenario?” he whispers, lids dropping.
“Yes,” Chad says, and shrinks the enormous outrage to something that fits between lips.Bookmarked by CircleCautious
