    Summary

    In which we explore some of the off-screen time between game scenes. Team bonding, dispatching, character studies, and various donuts eaten while on the job. Focus is mostly platonic and team-dynamics because I really really want more screen time with the other members of Z-Team... but I am also an action and angst writer, so buckle up. Not ACTUALLY writing a non-romantic Robert so much as Robert who is too fucking exhausted to do anything about, like, dating in Season 1? Something like that. The one-sided crushes go fucking HARD tho.

    Summary

    Robert rolled his eyes. “Guys, I have responsibilities. I told you, we can go out on Fridays.”
    Responsibilities,” Visi mocked him. “You’re not responsible for the whole freaking world, Robert.”
    “You do know you’re not getting paid for it?” Coupé added.

    A few months after Mecha Man officially joined SDN, the Z-Team is quickly rising to fame under his leadership. But the full-time job isn't full-time enough for Robert - not when it comes to being a hero.
    Unfortunately, some off-the-clock missions might turn out too dangerous to go solo.

    Robert sets off alone on a rescue mission. Things only get worse from there. Will the Z-Team learn what happened to him? If they do, won't it be too late?

    Summary

    Oh, how satisfying it was to see Shroud trembling on the ground in pain as his augments shut down. To see him waver as he was pathetically trying to pick himself up. To see him so wobbly on his feet, clutching his side, reaching under his coat-
    Wait.
    “Sorry, kid… We both lose.”

    What if Invisigal wasn't fast enough on that roof? Will Robert survive? To what lengths will Shroud go to get his revenge?

    A whumpy what-if scenario + me trying to patch up the plot holes from the last episode
