Summary
Something of a lack of maleness, an infection that came through the cracks of his lacking innate masculinity and buried itself and festered. He craved being a man, and that was the reason for his strange, disquieting imaginings, his secret thrill to think of himself, head bowed, unveiling layer upon layer of his superior. He wanted only to be close to the prime example of manhood he could merely aspire to be like.

A WW1 watermech AU filled to the brim with yearning, sexual tension, internalized homophobia & the homoerotically charged relationship between a man and his personal servant.

Summary
The air to Robert’s left grows warm, then hot—a concentrated sunlight that finally forces him to glance up.
Flambae’s hovering over the catwalk now, still nothing but a silhouette of fire. No trace of flesh. No trace of bones. Even his eyes are consumed by flames, leading Robert to wonder about the reliability of the man’s vision. He is a floating fiery ghoul, by all accounts.
One who may or may not be able to see.
Even so, the sight is formidable. He’d be impressed—seeing the effect up close like this is different than seeing it through the Mecha Man suit—but the image of the man slipping on a puddle and breaking his tooth on the bar makes it difficult to be anything but vaguely amused.
“If you’re gonna throw me off, could you at least do it in your other form?” Robert asks listlessly. “I’d like to die without third-degree burns, if at all possible.”

Summary
“Fuck off, Mecha-Dick. Your poor ass has been bumming off of me for months. Can your bitch ass not afford weed? Too busy blowing it all on come rags and twinkies?” Flambae smirks, leaning back in his seat to finish off the blunt.
Robert shrugs, “I just like wasting yours.”
“Whatever. See if I keep bringing any after this.”
