    Summary

    Visi disappeared after the final confrontation with Shroud, bleeding, broken, and unknowingly carrying a piece of Robert she had no right to take.
    Months later, circumstances dragged her back into the orbit of the very man whose life she once shattered, neither one of them prepared for what happens when old ghosts, old loyalties, and old feelings collide.

    Summary

    another explosion comes and goes and, as usual, refuses to take robert with it. with the fate of the suit uncertain, he’s forced to confront the truth he’s been avoiding: the suit might never give him the ending he’d spent half his life expecting. which leaves him with the one outcome he’s utterly unprepared for—being alive in a room full of people who actually give a shit.

    (aka, everyone was way too chill about robert almost exploding in the lab, including robert.)

    Summary

    Months after Mecha Man’s catastrophic fall left Robert in a coma, you had been by his side through every grueling step of recovery. Now, as Robert adjusts to life after losing his mech, you find yourself confronting feelings that go far deeper than friendship. And as the days pass, it becomes more difficult to ignore; as somewhere between nearly losing him and fighting to help him heal—physically and otherwise—“best friend” stopped being enough to describe what Robert means to you.

    But after everything he’s been through, is now really the time? And would he even feel the same way? And even then, are you too late?

    Summary

    Inside, the party continues as if their hostess hasn’t abandoned them. Bass thumps in Caitlyn’s chest and she flicks the half-spent cigarette from her fingers and watches the embers fade as it falls to the sidewalk below, then explode into hundreds of tiny sparks against the concrete.

    “Vi isn’t coming,” Jinx says. “Did you see her text?”

    The animosity normally present in her voice is strangely absent. Instead, Jinx just sounds resigned. Caitlyn grimaces a little, wishing she had some way to cover for Vi. “I was hoping maybe she’d make it after all. It is your birthday.”

    --

    caitlyn attempts a truce with jinx. it doesn't quite go according to plan.
