    Summary

    One of the main characters - the only surviving witness to a murder - has just woken from a coma. Not only is she entirely cognizant, but the first thing that the subtitles say she asks for is a lawyer.

    “What are you fucking giggling about?”

    The other person that’s been paying attention is Flambae. He’s right next to Robert on the couch, his arm slung over the top behind his head. One foot is propped up on the other knee, also pointing towards Robert, which has him caged in the corner by the arm rest. It’s probably some fucked-up power move. Robert has been ignoring it just to spite him.

    “It’s just not how comas work,” Robert shrugs.

    “Right, and you know because you’re a fucking doctor,” Flambae quips back.

    “I know because I was in one, asshole.”

    ------

    During a quiet night in, Robert realizes that his coma and injuries aren't common knowledge among Z-Team.

    Most of them take the information in stride with jokes aplenty.

    Flambae does not.

    Summary

    Robert rubbed his temples. "Alright, polyamory. But how does that work, exactly?"

    Malevola sighed, then leaned forward, resting her elbows on her knees. "Alright, dumbass. Basic breakdown. Communication. Honesty. Boundaries."

    "But like. I don't get it. You just get to...date and fuck whoever?"

    "You're thinking way too black and white, idiot."

    Sonar sighed. "That'd be the dream though. Infinite puss."

    Malevola ignored him. "It's a lot more complicated than monogamous relationships. It's all about needs, desires, insecurities."

    "But people are different. What if it doesn't match up?"

    "Then you talk it out. Figure out compromises. Decide if you can meet those needs—or if you aren't compatible."

    Robert stared at his phone. His thumb brushed over the background; Visi holding Beef.

    "So. Now that we've educated you, what are you gonna do?"

    "...I don't know."

    ---

    Or, how the Z-Team became a kitchen table polycule.

    Summary

    Robert hasn't slept. He doesn't know how long it's been and he doesn't really care, not when Chase is laid up in a hospital bed, barely breathing, with a heart that 's had to be restarted three times since Robert careened into the hospital bay in his old wheezing beater and begged the nurses for help.

    ***

    Wherein Robert is Going Through It and Flambae... Helps? Who knew he could do that?

    NOTE: I refuse to believe Flambae's name is Chad, so I made his name Kamran in this, because he was born in Afghanistan; I'm always open to feedback so if this is a wrong usage of you have a better name, lmk!
