Summary
Four alternate realities built around the same idea, every version of how their story could go. The Rise is before everything, the messy beginning. The Break is everything at once, the collision that won't let go. The Fall is after everything, the quiet that comes when they finally stop running. The Slip is everything that could have been. What's left when the world takes everything else.

Summary
A call comes in and Robert makes the call that he's the best suited to handle it. He wouldn't entrust just anyone with saving Flambae's beloved niece, not when he couldn't trust other heroes to give the same level he would to keep her, and all the other kids, safe.

Summary
“He with you?” the bouncer asks, head tilted up to look at Flambae. There’s a lot of emphasis on that “with”, and Robert can feel his face beginning to heat up. Was Flambae even in the room when they talked about this? Or is he about to be mortified into the next week by a classic Flambae dressing-down at the mere possibility of him dating someone like Robert?
But then the heat in his face is joined by another, external source of warmth when a firm arm slips around his waist, and he’s gently tugged to Flambae’s side. “Yeah,” Flambae says, without hesitation. “Is that a problem?”

Summary
"Robert. You've been hit with a power that causes persistent heightened anxiety." Blazer cuts to the chase, keeping her voice carefully calm and measured.
There's a reason why she's there with the amulet and why visitors were restricted to only her and Chase.
Robert, on a good day outside the suit, was a force to be reckoned with. She doesn't want to think about what he's capable of when he's operating on the constant heightened panic of a cornered animal.
---
Or the fic where I give Robert a seven day long panic attack and Turbo Anxiety and force Flambae to lock him in his apartment to keep an eye on him wrow.

Summary
When facing a strange villain that feeds off fear, that pulls the trauma from people’s throats like a horsehair worm from a wriggling mantis, Robert thinks it’s going to be routine, that Flambae will deal with him and get some free therapy as a bonus, that he’s safe behind his desk where the villain called Archivist won’t even think about him.
He’s wrong.

Summary
Robert had been drowning his omega in suppressants and scent patches for years to keep his secondary gender silent, just like his father did before him, but after his coma, his doctor banned him from using those, and ordered him to let his omega breathe again, but between dealing with chronic pain, his omega's return, and losing the Mecha Man suit to his dad's ambush, Robert is finding it hard.
But between his team and Flambae, things might just work work for the best.
And if it doesn't, Robert always has Beef and Twinkies to count on, neither of them have ever let him down before.

Summary
The reasonable thing to do when you get flung three years into the past would be to sit down and think things through - make a plan.
Fuck that noise - the Z-Team doesn't make plans. They have one (1) future dispatcher and current
disasterhero to find and bully into taking care of himself and one (1) statistics-obsessed, jackass supervillain to murder and leave in a convenient ditch. Easy, straight forward - no problem.Robert would really appreciate it if someone would explain to him what the hell is going on.

Summary
Local fire idiot falls in love with sad lactose-intolerant man in the frozen foods aisle at 3AM, marries him in Vegas eight months later, and then has to join a superhero rehabilitation program just so he can legally serve as his husband's caseworker when the aforementioned sad lactose-intolerant man inevitably gets caught committing performative felonies while completely powerless and barefoot on a rainy rooftop. SDN HR representative M. Kowalski did not sign up for this, but frankly, the paperwork is already filed and she's too tired to argue (featuring: forty-seven stolen porcelain dolls, one very judgmental dog, an Elvis impersonator who cried during the vows, and the worst meet-cute in supervillain history).

Summary
Having multiple soulmates was something romanticized in stories, but absolutely loathed in practice. Made all the more complicated by the people experiencing it. Every bond was intermingled, looped and knotted up in others. It made the connections murky, the limits hard to grasp. Unfairly proportioned, a gift to some, a curse to others.
OR
“I just..” he motions up at the MechaMan suit. “I purposely stayed away. Tried to hide away from the bond. I felt like knowing me would only put them in danger. Heroes don't live safe lives. What if one of my enemies went for them because of me?”
“How about we look at it other way.” Robert frowns “If YOUR soulmate was in danger, would you want them to stay away? Or would you want them to let you help?”

Summary
It made sense that Robert associated touch with something bad and given the way he made comments about his father being the ‘tough love’ type, Flambae was starting to doubt that much of the touch Robert received had ever been positive. How many times had someone laid their hands on Robert and didn’t mean him harm?
Or,
Robert is scared of being touched. Flambae tries to make it a little less scary.
