Summary
Several months after Invisigal disappeared with Shroud's mask, Robert is falling apart. He can't taste, can't feel, can't stop his off-the-books investigation into underground surgeons removing failed Red Ring implants. Every back-alley beating, every late-night break-in is just him chasing pain to cut through the numbness. To feel alive again.
The Z team are starting to notice, and they have their own plans to help Robert.
Flambae's got an alternative therapy in mind. The kind that doesn't end with Robert bleeding out behind a club. The kind that involves heat, control, and getting his dispatcher out of his system once and for all.
A story about choosing to live and finding heat in all the wrong (right) places.

Summary
“I don’t fuck little boys,” Robert tells him sternly. “If you want this, you need to be a grown man and communicate.”
Flambae bristles and opens his mouth, but Robert talks right over him. “That being said, I realize there’s such a thing as leading by example. So for the next few minutes, I’m going to talk, and you’re going to listen.”
AKA
Robert’s back is feeling much better, and he has plans to take a certain pyrokinetic apart the way he deserves. Unfortunately, he has to impart a little lesson about communication first.

Mecha Man Blue has been going after heroes, ones accused of corruption. Corruption that's been swept under the rug because of their flashy powers and famous names.
After taking it too far one night, a popular hero succumbs to his injuries in the hospital and Robert is sentenced to life in prison for what he considered to be an accident. It was deserved, so why was Robert being punished for doing a good thing?
Ten years later, he is visited by the one and only Blonde Blazer, he is curious as to whether or not this "Phoenix Program" she's talking about can break his fall, as he has been falling for a very long time.

Summary
🔷🔹🔷🔹🔷🔹🔷🔹
Waterboy goes down hard in the aftermath of a frantic and sudden mission that required the whole Z-team.
The ever-dysfunctional Z-team is then forced to work together to make sure that Waterboy stays alive until they can contact emergency services and get him proper help. This is easier said than done, though..In any other situation, the team would rather not get personal with Waterboy, but now they're required to take a small step into the personal life of this weird dork..
...oh, and also, they have to find a way to gently tell Waterboy's poor grandmother that her grandson might be dead without giving her a heart attack.

EDIT: Remind me never to try this hard at writing a fanfiction ever again, fuck me. I can't believe I wrote and posted this, as if anyone even gives a fuck, then submitted it to the contest. Imposter syndrome is killing me because I don't have people recognizing this as a notable fic, or even a "waterprism" fic. Maybe because it comes in later? Idk. If you liked this, please leave a comment. Otherwise it doesn't feel worth posting anything.
