    Summary

    Chase spent his early years helping a villain named MechaMan, sometimes reluctantly babysitting his son Robert. Many years later, when Project Phoenix finally started gaining momentum, Chase knew exactly who the perfect candidate for reform would be.

    Summary

    Chase leans towards the baby and squints at her like she's a criminal sitting across an interrogation table. Robert knows he named his daughter right when she matches his expression one-for-one. “At least tell me you didn't follow the stupid family tradition. We're running out of nicknames for Robert that ain’t Bob.”

    A weight lifts off of Robert's chest. Some unseen, fractured pattern comes to completion, and the joy of it is pure and simple. “Chase,” he says, not knowing whether to sob or laugh, “she's named after you.”

    It didn't quite dawn on him yet, clearly. Chase snorts and scratches Beef's ears. “Yeah, right. First name Track, last name Star?”

    Robert hoists the baby up to the full twenty-eight inches of limb and menace. “Chase, meet Chase.”

    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

    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.

    It was supposed to be a joke.

    It was supposed to be a one-off thing to mock the team for how immature they were being.

    So why the fuck was it working??

    Summary

    Robert Robertson should have died years ago. He’s a powerless superhero who’s been beaten, blown up, and on the wrong side of the edge of disaster more times than he can count.

    After he becomes a dispatcher, Z-team notices the strange way Robert seems to survive almost anything and comes to a conclusion.

    Robert Robertson might not be so powerless after all.

    Summary

    Robert, incredibly, has a talent to not die.

    That doesn't stop the fact that he's constantly ready to.

    Until he isn't.

    Or as the title says, "5 times Robert was okay with dying, and the one time he wasn't".

    Summary

    “That’s kind of depressing,” Blonde Blazer murmurs, shuffling a stack of papers.

    “You learn to deal,” says Robin. She leans towards Blazer, tone conspiratorial. “One time, a villain said I was ‘the Mecha Man version of Scrappy-Doo?’ That was my actual low point.”

    It was searingly obvious that Dad would have preferred another strapping young boy, Bobby’s stock, but giving fate the finger was an old family tradition by that point.

    When Robert was around 10 years old, his Uncle Elliot gave him a... Gift. An AI lodged into his brain. Powers, technically.

    After the coma, he can't really hear his "brain twin", and decides he should probably fix that. Besides, "Oracle" would definitely fit right in with the Z-Team.
