    Summary

    Flambert Prison Mates AU

    Robert is trying to investigate a criminal organization while also trying not to stare at his cellmate's hair, Flambae is slowly becoming weirdly protective of the "feral little shit" he's rooming with, and approximately seven hundred desserts changing hands. It's fine. Everything's fine. Robert is definitely not catching feelings for a man who would absolutely incinerate him if he knew the truth. Definitely not.

    (Spoiler: He is. He so, so is.)

    Summary

    Peter bit his lip hesitantly. Would he have been a good teacher? It sounded nice but it’s not like it was even possible.

    “There’s a teacher shortage,” she went on, digging through her bag for her keys. “The city’s doing a loan forgiveness program—college tuition covered if you agree to teach in one of the inner-city schools.”

    He blinked in surprise. “Really?”

    Or: The AU fic where a forgotten Peter Parker becomes a middle school science teacher at 19 years old.

    It's an Irondad story...eventually.

    Summary

    “She didn’t tell me she was sending the hot nurse.” His voice is low, raspy in a way Robert is sure is supposed to be seductive but sounds a little more like he swallowed sandpaper. He grins up crookedly, eyes shamelessly dragging over the column of Robert’s throat. “Not that I’m complaining.”

    Robert blinks. Once. Twice.

    He… he wasn’t expecting that.

    Or,

    Flambae is concussed and thinks Robert’s his boyfriend. Shenanigans ensue.

    Summary

    “All that power, that control, that force–it was genuinely really impressive. And it was definitely meant for something so much more.” Mecha Man leaned back against the bar, eyes tracing the open V in his costume, lingering on his bare chest, before slowly drifting his gaze back up to Flambae’s. “I’m sure you’re an amazing superhero now.”

    The comment Flambae was about to make died on the tip of his tongue. Any retort he could’ve possibly thought of scrambled with the butterflies ramming against the insides of his stomach, silenced by the alarms screaming behind his eyes. Was this some kind of trick? Was he about to jump him? What the fuck is happening? And why was Flambae freaking the fuck out over some few choice words that seem really close to a genuine compliment?

    Or-

    The romance option is Flambae and only Flambae. This is from his POV. Bro is down bad and angry about it.

    Summary

    “Tell me. Robert Robertson the Third. Mecha Man. Hero.” There’s something soft in the thing’s voice. Almost reverent. “What do you want?”

    His body wants to shut down. His mind wishes for oblivion. The answer is obvious.

    “Put me…back into…the fight.” He rasps.

    “Very well,” he can hear it smiling, “let’s get to work.”

     

    Or, in simpler terms…let’s do it all over again.
