Summary
One of the main characters - the only surviving witness to a murder - has just woken from a coma. Not only is she entirely cognizant, but the first thing that the subtitles say she asks for is a lawyer.
“What are you fucking giggling about?”
The other person that’s been paying attention is Flambae. He’s right next to Robert on the couch, his arm slung over the top behind his head. One foot is propped up on the other knee, also pointing towards Robert, which has him caged in the corner by the arm rest. It’s probably some fucked-up power move. Robert has been ignoring it just to spite him.
“It’s just not how comas work,” Robert shrugs.
“Right, and you know because you’re a fucking doctor,” Flambae quips back.
“I know because I was in one, asshole.”
------
During a quiet night in, Robert realizes that his coma and injuries aren't common knowledge among Z-Team.
Most of them take the information in stride with jokes aplenty.
Flambae does not.

Z-Team finds out Robert has been missing a leg this entire time. Apparently, twisting his foot back into place from a 180 degree angle doesn’t pass as normal.

Summary
Robert felt guilty for keeping secrets from the z-team. They were starting to become a family, and he was getting closer to a certain firey hero. But he wasn't just keeping Mecha Man a secret, he was also keeping his prosthetic leg a secret in fear he would be treated differently. That was until Visi convinced him at the Sardine to come clean...
OR when the suit exploded it took one of Robert's legs with it and he's trying to come clean to the team and his situationship with Flambae.
This fic was inspired by fanart made by @citrus0lemon on twitter. I won't do the art justice with my writing, it looking amazing.
