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
My Villain Robert AU in chronological order.
Robert Robertson III is a missing person. Thought to be killed by Shroud soon after he did the same to Mecha Man Astral. However, he is not dead, unlike what many think. Shroud had gotten him on his side, convinced Robert of his innocence in Mecha Man Astral’s death. Now, Robert runs the Red Ring, seeking to prove his Uncle Elliot’s innocence. Dubbed ‘Savior’ by those around him, due to his penchant of bringing in ‘lost causes’ or those otherwise cast aside.
People wonder if he’s even human. Armored in metal, nobody has seen his skin, let alone his face. Those who have won’t say a word.

Summary
“Sooo have you actually had gay sex?” Victor asks genuinely curious.
Robert tilts his head, an actual grin breaking through. “Have the news ever lied to you?”
Everyone stares at Robert. He just shrugs.
---------
Or the SDN makes the horrible executive decision to put Robert onstage as the Z-Team’s hero representative, fully aware that his PR experience consists of half a prayer and a legacy doing most of the heavy lifting. Robert takes the microphone and runs with it, feeding Los Angeles the most outrageous half-truths he can get away with.
The Z-Team slowly realizes their dispatcher is a public menace.
Unfortunately, they are completely whipped.
