Summary
Izuku didn’t like the doctor who always came to his room. He just wanted to stay in his room and wait till Hanako came back. Hanako would keep him safe, she always did. That’s why she would always volunteer to be tested on every day, to keep Izuku safe. Because if she went, that meant Izuku didn’t.
The doctor that took him seemed to disagree. He’d take Izuku away from his glass cell and drag him into the experimentation labs, where he’d be strapped to a table.(He really didn’t like needles.)
They’d return before Hanako did and Izuku wasn’t allowed to tell her. The doctor said something bad would happen if she found out.
The doctor was right. Something bad did happen. Hanako was gone.
She never came back to the glass room.
She never came back to Izuku.
He waited. And waited. He waited for what seemed like forever.
The doctor didn’t like Izuku waiting. So he moved him. There was no more glass, just white walls.
White walls and no Hanako.
And staring at the white walls made him realise that, Hanako wasn’t coming back.
Hayashi Hanako was gone.
Abandoned!

Summary
He’ll be better for momma. Momma’s tired. She tries, she cares. But it’s the lies. He lies to her, how is she meant to know. Even when all the signs are there. It’s fine. She doesn’t know because he hasn’t told her. It’s his fault. Not momma’s. He’ll be better for momma.
Momma’s dead. Her body crumpled on the pavement. Dust and smoke billowing from the fallen buildings. Her lifeless eyes staring at him. She... She, She pushed him in front it. Why-why would momma push him in front of it. Momma loves him. So-so why did she... Blood seeped from her battered form. The chunk of the building impaling her torso. How did she get crushed? The words seemed to echo in his head. She pulled him in front of the building as it collapsed, her hands gripping his shoulders as she forced him to stay still. Telling him not to move and it would be alright. Momma lied. Momma is dead. But how? He should be d-dead. Almost like getting slapped, a painful realisation overcame him. A quirk. A quirk had saved him. Not momma’s, not a stranger’s, his. His quirk. His quirk! He had a quirk.
A quirk that killed her.
A morbid thought seemed to replay in the back of Izuku’s head.
‘She tried to kill him first.’

Summary
When the front desk had triggered the lockdown and called to say Mecha Man was in the SDN lobby with the Astral Pulse in hand, turning himself in, this wasn’t exactly what she expected. Mecha Man was supposed to be menacing. He was supposed to be feared, intimidating, imposing, a force to be reckoned with both in and out of the suit. Someone you looked at and thought, damn. Now that’s a villain.
When Blazer got to the lobby, all she could think was, damn. That’s just a kid.
The same thought returned to her now, watching the shallow rise and fall of Robert’s chest as he slept in the too-big hospital bed. Around either wrist, thick restraints pinned his arms down to the metal frame of the cot. Under the blanket that was draped over his legs, she knew the same restraints were fixed at his ankles, too.
“Feels like overkill,” she muttered, shaking her head again. Chase huffed a laugh, hunching further in on himself.
“It’s not. Kid’s a scrappy motherfucker, always has been,” he said.

Or, a villain Robert Robertson AU - featuring a hint of "brainwashed child soldier" and a whole lot of secrets.

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.)
(OR OR: Dispatch ft. Villain Robert Robertson III) -

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,”

Aka: An alternate universe where, instead of becoming Mechaman, Robert became a villain on the Z-Team
