Summary
The first Mecha Man to grace L.A. was titled Mecha Man Prime, being the first in the legacy of non-powered humans to make a difference as a hero. The second Mecha Man named himself Astral and made his debut in L.A. as the leader of a group of heroes.
Robert was supposed to be the third Mecha Man. His father would have wanted that for him, but disappointing his father isn't new to him anyway.
In Robert's defense, he had a very valid crash out after his dad was murdered a decade ago. In his opinion, this leads to his very reasonable agenda of hunting down the man who murdered him. It sucks, because it's his target is beloved by the entire damn State.
L.A.'s third Mecha Man, Elliot Connors.
(OR: Robert Robertson is L.A.'s most wanted supervillain, hunting down the newly retired Mecha Man one dispatch call at a time.)

Summary
Blonde Blazer feels herself unwind a bit– not in relief, no, but in confusion. The person under the mask is… A man. A young man with striking blue eyes. Eyes that’re weighed down by heavy eyebags, highlighting sunken cheeks and unruly facial and head hair. There’s a chip on his right ear. There are veins crawling up his neck.
“I’m not asking you to believe me.” His voice is raspy with signs of disuse, Adam’s apple bobbing up and down as if it isn’t used to the movement. “I’m asking you to arrest me.”
or,
Mecha Man died in that explosion, suit broken beyond repair and pilot nowhere to be found. A few weeks after that famed explosion, a new villain pops up and terrorizes Los Angeles. The chances of these situations being connected is slim.
(But not zero.)
or or,
villain Robert Robertson because he hasn’t been through enough

Summary
Five years after Shroud is defeated, Waterboy lives comfortably as a high-ranking SDN hero. The Z-team, now a well respected hero troupe, lives on in something just to the left of glory. Everything is peaceful. Or, at least, as peaceful as it can be.
And then he's flung violently back into the past, forced to watch as old wounds open. Okay. Whatever.
There's really not much he can do without messing up the future, but... maybe there's some comfort he can provide. Some life he can bring to his past teammates' eyes.
It's the least he can do.

Summary
Robert is keeping two secrets from his team.
1. He actually enjoys their company (mostly).
2. He doesn't need the subtitles to understand the K-Drama they just forced him to watch.
A two-part story about a heritage erased, a team that misses the obvious, and the inevitable moment the truth comes out.
——————
A/N: This is based on the fact from one of the developers that Robert was originally intended to be half-Korean in early development, but the concept got scrapped because of similarities to Mark Grayson from Invincible. We were ROBBED.

Summary
Robert Robertson III has days where everything hurts. Days when his body decided what he could and couldn’t do, no matter how much he pushed. Days that reminded him just how much he’d already lost. Those were the worst, because they forced him to admit he needed help. Today was going to be one of those days.
It was a good thing his group of misfits were there to catch him when he fell, whether he wanted them to or not.

“Hold up, hold up!” Prism chuckled, handing him the orange, square-shaped cover. “You better read yours.”
“For what? I already know what it says. ‘ Flambae is amazing, and so fucking strong, and hot, and I’m a bitch! Also, he’s hot’. “
She raised a brow.
Shoulders dropping, he opened the folder, and his eyes dimmed slightly.
“ ‘Chad is the biggest asshole I’ve ever met.’
Or,
The Z-Team get their hands on Robert’s reports about them. Flambae doesn’t like what he finds, and makes sure Robert knows.

my body's made of crushed little stars by DaQuirklessBeauty

Summary
Robert has always treated his body like something temporary—maintained just enough to keep going. Then one run-in with a passing villain leaves him younger, unscarred, standing in a body that no longer carries the visible proof of the pain he survived. As the Z-Team watches him move through the world in a way he hasn’t in years, concern sharpens into something heavier. Others begin to notice what Robert himself has long learned to dismiss, and the truth becomes harder to avoid: whatever hit him didn’t just revert him—it revealed how much pain he’d been living with, and how quietly he let it happen. Because if this is who Robert used to be, then the version they’ve known has been surviving far more than he ever admitted.
—
Or: Robert gets caught in the crossfire of a fleeing villain’s power—and wakes up in the body he had at twenty-one.

Summary
“Robert hadn’t expected to hook up with anyone when he decided to go out for the night but fuck if he didn’t need this. He had to admit he was going a little crazy doing nothing other than being Mecha Man and returning home broken and exhausted. He had left his apartment just to grab a drink and for a change of scenery but that had quickly changed when the man above him approached with an offer to buy him a drink.”
A one night stand changes Robert’s life forever.

“Robert, don’t look, but there’s a group of weirdos over by the window who bet me that I couldn’t get the number of, and I quote, ‘that gloomy twink at the bar’.”
—-
Z-Team unknowingly sends Robert’s ex to flirt with him, not knowing they already know each other, and Robert is all too happy to play along if it means his ex will split his winnings with him.

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.

breaking news: sopping wet man with water pouring out of his ears is least weird member of his family by ace_onthecase

Summary
Herm has always been the black sheep. Ever since he was a little kid, his strange attitude and behavior drew whispers from his aunts and uncles.
Turns out that when your entire extended family are career criminals for fun, being a decent and caring person tends to make you stick out like a sore thumb.
It also tends to land you in…situations. Situations that Herm has rationalized as a bit commonplace. Apparently most people don’t have to bail out their second cousin after they get arrested for running an illegal piranha breeding ring out of the pool in the backyard.
Or,
Waterboy: lol reminds me of when my 1st cousin once removed drowned in a haunted lake. crazy stuff. really no need to talk about me and my family
The Z-team: ok no run that back and explain
