    Summary

    “One of these days I’m gonna burn that smug fucking look right off your face.”

    Robert could reply with snark, a well-timed retort. He had it loaded.

    Instead, he stares.

    Like the way you're supposed to stare at the sun when it hates you, and you love it anyway.

    “God, you're beautiful.”

    Flambae arched a brow. “Yeah? I fucking know. Mirrors exist. But thanks.”

    Or,

    Robert is in love with SDN’s resident flaming asshole.

    Unfortunately, the flaming asshole is the only one who doesn't know.

    Summary

    Robert is keeping two secrets from his team.

    1. He actually enjoys their company (mostly).

    2. He doesn't need the subtitles to understand the K-Drama they just forced him to watch.

    A two-part story about a heritage erased, a team that misses the obvious, and the inevitable moment the truth comes out.

     

    ——————

    A/N: This is based on the fact from one of the developers that Robert was originally intended to be half-Korean in early development, but the concept got scrapped because of similarities to Mark Grayson from Invincible. We were ROBBED.

    Summary

    YOU — You fidget with your fingers for a moment, and then look back at him. “Are you okay, Kim?”

    PERCEPTION [Easy: Success] — He blinks twice, surprised. Then he looks away, turning his gaze to the violet and blue sky.

    EMPATHY [Medium: Success] — He feels uncomfortable, sometimes, having such raw concern and sincerity pouring out from you with only him as recipient. You’re… intense, on a good day.

    KIM KITSURAGI — “I’m alright,” he says. His fingers twitch, like he’s itching for a cigarette. “It’s been… a long week.”

    ELECTROCHEMISTRY [Trivial: Failure] — Oh, it’s been long, and it’s been hard. Makes you itch for the neck of a bottle in your hand, neurotransmitters firing wild, fireworks behind your eyes.

    (or; Kim has a rough week. Harry helps, in his own way.)

    Summary

    Harry finds himself in the liminal space between Martinaise and actually having to be Harry Du Bois again. He needs to return to his apartment, and his job, and his life, but the prospect is terrifying; everything that was once him is everything he can't allow himself to be ever again. Kim helps him make the transition, and Harry pines wildly over him. They eat food and talk about the homo-sexual underground. Harry tries not to cry a lot.
