Summary
The doors swing open.
"S-sorry I'm late!"
Mandy holds back a sigh of relief, before turning to smile at the newcomer. "No worries, Waterboy. Take a seat and we'll… start…"
She blinks. Once, then twice. Then—
"Oh. Wow. You look—"
"You actually look fuckable, what the hell," Courtney wheezes, sounding just as stunned as Mandy feels. Neither notice the sound of Prism's phone shutter clicking multiple times.

Summary
Things have been good— besides some lingering regret over not killing Shroud and the careful consolidating of corporatizing Mecha Man with dispatch work, Robert’s been alright. Hell, he even bought a bed recently.
Things spiral pretty quickly when he’s a victim of some sort of bizarro mugging and gets turned into a cat. Surprisingly, it doesn’t even rank in the top ten worst experiences of his life.

Summary
“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.

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.

Summary
To call Robert's new situation with Flambae ‘complicated’ would be a drastic understatement.
Robert cut his fucking fingers off. Flambae tried to burn him to death after a bar fight. They aren’t good for each other, barely even like each other, and there’s no way it’s going to end well.
But when the sex is this fucking good, Robert is having trouble listening to the logic.
Or, the one where they become fuckbuddies and catch feelings.
(Everyone pretend to be shocked.)

Summary
“Look.” he continued, hands raised in surrender. “You’re pissed. I get it. As you know, the rest of my day wasn’t that fucking great either.”
He nodded towards the corner of the ceiling, where one of several small CCTV cameras sat. “But if you’re going to incinerate me, could you at least do it in a blind spot? I don’t exactly want my charred corpse caught in 4k.”
Flambae glanced around at the cameras, puffing out a warm, steady breath. He met Robert’s gaze again, hot embers burning beneath his glare. Flambae’s other fist curled, trembling slightly.
Robert licked his lips and braced, fully expecting to have to come up with a brand new excuse tomorrow for why his nose was busted this time around.
Instead, his eyes narrowed when Flambae’s glare — for the smallest, most imperceptibly short moment — flitted down, tracking the motion. Flambae’s gaze snapped back up, looking caught.
Robert blinked, eyes widening. His mouth fell open, the corner of his mouth ticking up just a fraction. “Oh.”
—
Or, Robert and Flambae run into eachother after hours, post the “comms incident”. They argue a bit, then finish what they started.

“Wait.” Flambae blurted, voice strained.
Robert’s fingers tensed on the channel button, halting his motion. “…yeah?”
The line went quiet for a moment before Flambae made a soft, surrendering sound.
“Fuck.” he borderline whined, and Robert couldn’t help the way his breath caught in his throat.
“...Do you…want help? Or something?” Robert winced, regretting the words as soon as they left his mouth. “The sooner you’re done with…whatever this is, the sooner you can get back out on the field. So—just tell me what you need.”
Another beat of silence and Robert briefly considered taking the offer back, asking Flambae to forget he even said anything. A rough exhale whistled in his ears.
“Talk to me.”

Summary
"It was almost inconsequential in the general gist of things. Robert would not have given it a second thought if not for the weird tension that sprouted after, and the fact that his team made a bigger deal than it had to be. It was not like he was actually hurt, not really, the fingers were not even broken. Probably. It was fractured at most, in his personal opinion. "
Or
The team slowly figuring out Robert's insanely high pain tolerance and progressively getting more worried about it.

Look. Look. It's not like Robert kept his mouth shut about the extent of the pain on purpose. He's just used to having to patch himself up alone, Beef's non-judgemental looks and adorable snuffles keeping him company while he powered through another set of stitches.

And he knows that Waterboy can be good too.—
Yet another fic where these guys get freaky in a closet.

Summary
Robert fills up the glass he's been trying to remove a questionable stain from and empties it in a fluid movement over his shoulder, enjoying the indignant squawk it produces before all noise ceases. Blessed silence.
"You gotta stop doing this near the sources of water," Robert comments lazily, turning around to lean back against the sink. He smirks at the sight of Flambae. Dripping wet, and eyes wild. Pathetic.
"Just you wait until I set you on fire in your sleep," Flambae says through gritted teeth, fingers twitching as if he's trying to summon his fire despite the water impairing him.
"Bringing kinky shit into the bedroom already?" Robert quips. He crosses his arms, not cowed in the slightest by the other's larger frame.
or; Flambae's apartment is destroyed during the attack. He forces his way into staying at Robert's instead.

Summary
There just had to be a jewelry store next door, that just had to have some desirable piece on display that made it the perfect target for an early morning heist...and it just had to be next to a fucking daycare.
Did Robert know the guy had a gun? Yes. But what he didn't know was that the bastard had gotten in a lucky shot.
Fuck his incredibly high pain tolerance.
