Summary
“Put your hands on me,” Robert commands, voice raspy with pain.
Flambae finally runs out of words, sputtering uselessly.
“Your hands,” Robert grinds out, gritting his teeth through another excruciating wave of spasms. “On me.”
“Bitch, now is not the time!” Flambae hisses. From his place on the floor, Robert can just barely make out the fierce flush spreading across the other man’s face.

Summary
"Robert, what the fuck is going on? Are you actually getting a new job or something?" Punch Up asked. "I get that it's none of our business, but..."
"What? No, I'm not getting a new job," Robert said, and the surprise at least sounded completely honest in his voice. He paused, and Flambae could almost feel the wheels turning in his head even across the distance as he tried to decide how much to tell them.
There was a pause.
"I wasn't going on a date. And I'm not getting another job. I was going to a funeral," he said finally.
"Oh," Mal said quietly.
"My condolences," Coop added a little louder.
"I..." Robert started and then swallowed.
"You don't have to explain," Flambae said, because yeah. Okay, this really wasn't their business, even if he wished Robert knew that he could lean on them if he needed.
"No, it's part of the job," Robert continued, though that made no fucking sense. "I was Mecha Man for... god, more than fifteen years. I had about two dozen make-a-wish kids. And I try to keep in contact, if the parents are willing."
Oh.
Oh, Jesus.

Summary
Thirteen seconds.
Thirteen seconds of anger. Thirteen seconds of hurt. Thirteen seconds of fire because Chad is fire. And fire is unpredictable, hard to contain, and it usually does not care about what it burns. Thirteen seconds later, the world has been altered and shifted off its axis forever. Because Robert was standing in the fire with him this time.
This has always been a story of redemption and second chances. Of breaking the curse of potential. But when somebody pulls a trigger, the bullet can’t go back in the gun. Right?
———
Flambae’s fire attack actually hits Robert after he reveals his identity, nearly killing him on the spot. Six months later, Robert will risk what’s left of him to offer him his last chance at redemption. If not him, who else would?

Summary
The thing about plastic chairs is that they weren't a great substitute for an actual bed; the other thing is, Robert can't exactly afford to be picky and even if he 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 the internal debate is still ongoing as to whether or not he deserves a mattress at this current point in his life.
So, the plastic chair stays and is staying for the foreseeable future. Besides, it's charming - in a depressing, minimalism-that-is-totally-not-a-reflection-of-his-inner-sense-of-worth way.
Or:The fic where Robert has chronic pain and Flambae has warm hands. The two of them will figure out what to do about that eventually, right?
