Summary
As fast as it had vanished before, Chris’ anger returns.
Ada Wong is there, behind that door.
That woman who killed his entire teamー the reason he wakes up at night in cold sweats, his excuse for why he chooses lone missions over a team job, and why, frequently, he loses himself at the edge of a bottleーis behind that very door.
Chris kicks it and opens fire.
(Or: Six months after the events in China, Chris stumbles upon Ada Wong on a field mission.)

Summary
Oh, how satisfying it was to see Shroud trembling on the ground in pain as his augments shut down. To see him waver as he was pathetically trying to pick himself up. To see him so wobbly on his feet, clutching his side, reaching under his coat-
Wait.
“Sorry, kid… We both lose.”What if Invisigal wasn't fast enough on that roof? Will Robert survive? To what lengths will Shroud go to get his revenge?
A whumpy what-if scenario + me trying to patch up the plot holes from the last episode

Summary
“It’s not a real kid, Chase.”
Chase is technically underage, he’s a year away from being able to drink but the bartender didn’t bother to check his ID. Chase has always looked a little older than he was, it works in his favor now.
Nobody at a hero bar like this would assume he was so young.
“How the fuck do you think that?” Chase asks, spits. His hands still shake with the memory of it. The beer in his hand shakes with the tremors of his hands. “How the fuck do you do it?”
Mechaman sighs, deep, disappointed. He leans back, taking his whiskey with him.
The rest of the Brave Brigade was downstairs, drinking in victory, dancing with the other heroes, celebrating.
“It’s the Astral Pulse.”

Summary
A fight with a reality bender and an overloaded Astral Pulse lands Robert and his Mechaman suit into a different universe altogether, one where his dad never died and Mechaman Astral was still in active duty.
It should be a kinder universe with one less tragedy, but it's not. Not when this universe's Robert had died young instead.

Summary
As much as he tries to shrug it off, Robert's body is not going to let him forget that he had just endured some pretty bad internal bleeding from being tortured.
Getting thrown around as Mecha Man by Shroud’s stupid spider-mech and getting dropped on the ground definitely isn’t speeding up the recovery either.
After giving the people who care about him a scare, it's clear that some reflections are overdue.

Or
Robert’s stubborn ass gets properly sent to the hospital.
Finally.
Post canon story written with Heroic Visi/Spare Shroud/No romance ending in mind.
