Summary
Robert might’ve, maybe, perhaps, gifted Herm an aphrodisiac plant as a thank you gift. With how unbelievable that sounds, it was a complete/i> accident.
What was that one quote Bob Ross said? Happy accidents or something.

Summary
“Well I’ll be damned… this feels too good to be true.”
And it does; Robert isn’t used to surprise gifts– he hasn’t done anything to warrant this. He hates that his immediate response was to throw up his hackles, and try to find any signs of tampering– but it’s not unreasonable for someone like him. He’s Mecha Man; he’s on a lot of people’s shitlist. There’s a lot of people who would mean to do him harm, or at the very least, play a cruel prank on him. He can’t let his guard down, just because he’s a dispatcher now. Being Robert Robertson doesn’t erase the legacy that hangs over his shoulders– the shadow that it casts.

Summary
Robert Robertson has, spontaneously, become ten years old.
“What’s not legal? Employing a man? Ask him why he can’t drive his own damn self back from the station!”
“Well, he’s ten, sir. Ten year olds aren’t allowed to work.” There was a long pause, then an unsubtle cough. “Or drive.”
Hands on her hips, Blazer slammed to a halt, face expectant. Chase silently counted down from ten in his head, then took a long, calming breath.
“Let me get this straight. Robert Robertson is at your police station, and he is visibly ten years old?”
Blazer startled, anger evaporating in a blink.

Summary
Robert has been pushing himself too hard, trying (and failing) to balance his job as a dispatcher with returning to being Mecha Man. Of course something was going to get forgotten along the way.
-
His vision became splotchy, losing his balance as he stumbled into the edge of his desk. He grabbed hold of the back of his chair for balance and took a couple of deep breaths, blinking the dark edges back. Not wanting anyone to see him in this state, he forced himself to straighten up and tried to walk with as much purpose as he could out to the hallway. Usually he’d carry Beef, but Robert was pretty sure if he bent over he’d get a close-up view of the carpet.

Summary
“Can I ask you something?”
Will laughs a little, shaking his head with an expression of complete bewilderment. “You already have.”
“Something else.”
Will shrugs. Mike wonders what he’s thinking. “Go for it.”
“It might be weird,” Mike warns in a stage whisper. He isn’t sure what’s weird or not anymore. He has a feeling this question crosses the line, but the feeling isn’t strong enough to stop him from asking. Not with Will standing so close, looking so glowy and perfect.
“Whatever, Mike,” Will laughs. “It can’t be weirder than what’s already happened to-”
“Have you ever thought about us?”In which Mike Wheeler gets drunk, tries to kiss his best friend, and is generally an idiot. What else is new.
