Summary
The previous reincarnations of the Avatar Spirit were growing restless as Aang stayed frozen within the iceberg and Sozin’s Comet drew nearer. In the year 97 AG, they made a desperate gamble by removing the Avatar Spirit from Aang and giving it to their best hope for peace and balance between all four nations—a 13 year-old Zuko, freshly burned and sentenced to exile.

Summary
Robert loved his father, he really did. But the only thing which could make the destruction of the Mech and his entire legacy worse, Robert decided, would be if his dad was here to see it. He might be temporarily retired as a superhero, drowning in thousands of dollars of credit card debt, fighting through chronic pain, unable to take revenge for his father’s killer, and working as the barely respected leader of a group of superpowered assholes… but at least he didn’t have to deal with that.
Or, Robert “Robbie” Robertson II gets transported to the future to witness his son at two steps above rock-bottom. Nobody takes it well.
Except Shroud. Shroud is having a fucking field day.

Summary
With Rouge joining Team Sonic to be closer to Knuckles and Omega being assigned to a new base for a promotion, Shadow is once again alone. He watches Sonic and his team from afar, conflicted. He works better alone, and yet … part of him yearns for their company, specifically that of his blue rival.
When the bodies of poisoned Mobians are found in increasing numbers, Shadow will have to work together with Team Sonic to uncover the culprit. But Shadow’s life is becoming increasingly tumultuous – Commander Tower is retiring, and his replacement seems to have the singular goal of making Shadow’s life a living hell. It’s a flip of a coin whether the circumstances bring Shadow closer to Sonic and his team, or drive him away forever.
(Title from ‘No Happy Ending’ by the Mechanisms)

Summary
On Friday, Blonde Blazer found a new sucker to try (and fail) to wrangle the infamous Z-Team at SDN's Torrance location. On Friday, they all bet he'd be gone by Monday. On Monday, he showed up. On Tuesday, he showed up again. On Wednesday, they got to put a face to the voice.
He was the most basic and boring man he’d ever seen in his life. Average height, average brown hair cut into an average look, with big doe eyes and even bigger bags underneath them, a freckled face supported by a frame so thin and frail looking a soft breeze might knock him on his ass. All in all, he was entirely unremarkable in any and every way. Kind of cute, but in the same way a malnourished puppy covered in mud on the side of the road was cute.

Summary
"Just one hint," Malevola pleaded. Prism leaned against her chair, eyeing Robert expectantly.
Robert stared at them briefly, deliberating over his response. He settled on honesty. They wouldn't believe him, and they wouldn't be able to link it to his identity as Mecha Man anyway.
"Sure. I can't die."
Prism sighed in frustration. "Oh come on! Don't be like that."
_______________________________________Robert Robertson III was eight when he realized he had a super power. It was also the first time he died.

Summary
Soulmates find each other when marks are left behind.
Flambae's fingers got cut off, and his side of the bond flared to life. Sent to prison with a one sided bond and knowing his soulmate is the man who put him there, he's still not sure if he wants to live. But one thing he does know is this bitch in his head is just depressing.

Summary
When Mecha Man Astral died, his legacy died with him, his murder never solved, his son left behind, and his Astral Pulse never seen again.
Fifteen years later, Robert Robertson III, working under the name Mecha, is still chasing down leads on his missing birthright. Leads that always end up turning up nothing. After his latest failure to locate the Astral Pulse, Shroud gives Robert a new mission: infiltrate the SDN as a dispatcher. A laughably simple job.
Well it would be, if he could keep his eyes off of Flambae for five fucking minutes.
The closer they're drawn to one another, the harder Robert's inevitable betrayal will be. For both of them.

Summary
Every power has a price. Something that would make you laugh at the irony if it wasn't so damn infuriating. A man with the strength of ten at the height of half of one. A woman with asthma who needs to hold her breath to stay invisible. A walking fireball who can lose his eyebrows to a rogue flame.
So of course when Robert realized he wasn't powerless, he could only laugh at the irony.
An immortal man who wishes he was dead really was the icing on the cake.
