Summary
“I ask you this as one knight to another. I would be in your debt.”
“I have no use for nebulous favors from a mortal in a different dimension,” he said. “Debts are paid tangibly, Dark Knight. I favor the traditional.”
Batman’s mind raced. “My firstborn,” he said.
He had no intention of ever having children. The Mission was the end-all be-all of his life. There would never be a firstborn, but there was hardly a more traditional bargain.
“Very well,” Fright Knight said. “I accept your terms, Batman. I shall dispense with Spectra posthaste.”
Batman nodded.
Fright Knight kept his word.

Summary
A fight with a reality bender and an overloaded Astral Pulse lands Robert and his Mechaman suit into a different universe altogether, one where his dad never died and Mechaman Astral was still in active duty.
It should be a kinder universe with one less tragedy, but it's not. Not when this universe's Robert had died young instead.

Summary
Simon was a mutt. A feral little bastard who didn’t- who couldn’t do what he was told, who refused to lie down and take it like a good boy. He was a guard dog, an attack dog, a stray. Something to use and throw away, to kick when it's down.
For better or worse, people have always treated Ghost as less than human. Always, until Captain MacTavish.

Summary
His body swings like a punching bag. The tightening sensation and chafing of the chains around his legs the only thing reminding his body they existed at all. Robert had already been struggling to breathe. His lungs would scream out in pain against the weight of the organs that suffocated them if he could waste the breath. With the desperation only dying men have, Robert found himself searching for any hint of oxygen in the air as the force of Shroud’s fist sent what little air he had left out of his lungs. All he received was the taste of cheap, shitty alcohol on his tongue, the heavy must of mould in his mouth and the acidic tang of vomit hitting the back of his throat.

Robert might not have the Astral Pulse or know where it is, but he has something just as useful to Shroud. He just needs to stamp out that mind of his.

Summary
Blonde Blazer focused on him with a bittersweet look. Posture weary as her shoulders were slightly slumped into themselves, her hands tightened into fists. "Chase." She sighed. "I was just looking for you. Come in."
They both entered her office, tension settling in the room as she beckoned him to her desk where her computer sat.
"We found Robert."

Summary
After Flambae and Invisigal pull a particularly cruel prank on their boss, Robert suddenly goes missing without a word.
Toxic, under orders from Shroud, seeks out Robert Robertson and takes him to a facility where he is tested on. Shroud is working on a serum, derived from Sonar's DNA, that is supposed to turn the affected into mindless beasts for him to control. But, when said serum is tested on Robert, he only gains an unquenchable hunger for blood and a seemingly unending amount of pain. Toxic is happy to toy with Robert, allowing him to suffer on his own and giving him no other choice but to come crawling back to him. But, when the Z-team is sent to search for their colleague, Flambae is shocked to find that something far more sinister has come over Robert than they initially believed.

Summary
All of his emotions came crashing at once— Shroud, laying on the ground begging him to stop. Shroud, the one who put a bullet through his father. Shroud, the one who made his only other relative into a critical state because heroism was etched deep in his veins. Shroud, who made him go through his final straw.
His hands, bruised and bloodied from his own, held a shard of glass. He wasn't sure where he got it. He doesn't remember anything except for one goal; Kill Shroud. He raised the glass— then he stabbed.
He stabbed, and stabbed, and stabbed. He paid no mind to the hands grasping at his face as what little fight they gave, no mind to the blood splattering his only work clothes and the roof below both of them, no mind to his team or his dog—
And he smiled.

Summary
Everyone hated Mecha-Man for some reason or another, but Robert could say with confidence that he hated him the most.
----------------------------
Robert’s father had never been a good person. But to be crystal clear, neither was Shroud. Apparently, all it took to forget that fact was five bullets clean through the infamous Mecha-Man.
Shroud was worshipped as a hero, despite everything he did to Los Angeles. He’d even been offered a job at some shitty hero agency, all for turning on the Brigade he’d worked with for years. And he’d had the gall to accept the offer.
Robert was left stranded in the wake of his father’s death. Not even eighteen, forced to confront his family’s legacy before he’d even graduated. He didn’t grieve for his father. You had to know someone to truly mourn them.
...
!! HEAVILY INSPIRED BY THE WORK OF @/altades_art on x, some moments in the fic will be inspired directly by their art/comics, PLEASE GO CHECK THEM OUT OK COOL !!

Tired of Comparisons, Trying to Learn the Lesson In by Anonymous
Fandoms: Dispatch (Video Game)

Summary
AU where Robert has powers his dad forced him to suppress in his youth. Upon stepping into the role of Mecha Man Blue, Robert runs himself into the ground physically, mentally, and financially to uphold his family’s legacy. It’s what he was born and raised for, after all. He can’t afford to fuck it up. He’s nothing outside of it. His dad was so keen on drilling that into his head.
…with that kind of pressure on him, is it any wonder he starts to act out? It really shouldn’t be surprising that he needs to let off some steam, some charge, so he doesn’t lose his cool doing real hero work. Call him a hypocrite. Call him a supervillain in a hero’s suit. Robert’s long since past the point of caring.
It’s just a shame he’s working so closely with people who know the hallmarks of a real villain a lot better than he would like them to. He’ll have to keep his work and his fun separate, for the team’s sake if nothing else. They mean a lot to him. He genuinely wants to help them succeed in their redemption arcs.
But he has no intention of stopping. Not when he’s finally back in his prime.
Not for anyone.

Summary
Mecha Man is dead. In both legacy and the man behind it, Mecha Man is dead. All that's left is Robert Robertson the third, who puppeteers Mecha Mans corpse on Shroud's command, using the suit when needs must and his hacking skills when it doesn't.
However, when Chase finds Robert again after all these years he's not going to let him go again, not even when they're on different sides. There's one last chance for Robert, even if that involves unravelling just how Robert can stand at the side of his fathers killer... and making him deal with a rag-tag team of reformed villains along the way.
After all, nobody ever said it would be easy for any of them.Series

Summary
Robert Robertson III is a villain. Or he was, before he ran out of money and was arrested. The SDN offers him a deal. Being one of their lackeys is better than a prison sentence.
A few weeks after Herm joins the Z-Team (his Gramma is so proud), a new member joins.

Summary
“You are gathered here because we’re being asked to take in another villain and allow him to join the Z-Team… Effective immediately,” Blazer explained, all of the villains suddenly sitting up at attention.
“Wait- You wanna bring in another bitch?” Prism asked, Blazer sighing a bit.
“We don’t have a choice-”
“Yes you do! To fight and tell them we can’t fit anyone else here!”
“Guys- I know there is a cause for alarm and- A lot of opinions. However, this time around we don’t have a choice. I can’t just turn them away. He… He doesn’t have anywhere to go,” Blazer said, Invisigal raising a brow as she sat up in her chair. She pulled out a single earbud, her music still blasting in her left ear as she spoke.
“And what will they do if we don’t? Can’t we just send him to another team?” She asked.
“If we refuse to put him on the team? I was told they were going to- They were going to get rid of him. Permanently,”

Summary
Surprisingly, Flambae doesn’t mind the newest dispatcher for Z-Team. Robert is a snarky asshole normie, but he’s smart as shit, actually seems invested in the job, and is all too willing to flirt back whenever Flambae can’t keep his mouth shut.
Meanwhile Flambae’s arch nemesis, the infamous villain Mecha-Man with his wet freak sidekick, continues to make his life a living hell.
