    Summary

    After the Red Ring’s attack, Courtney and Robert are left to face the part of heroism no one cheers for—the aftermath. Injuries, secrets, and close calls force them to confront feelings they can’t joke away or outrun. As their partnership begins to shift into something deeper, the pressure of saving a city that never stops needing them threatens to pull them apart before they’ve even figured out what they are.

    Together, they’ll have to learn how to carry the weight of their pasts, lean on each other in times of need, and decide if the cost of being a hero is worth it.

    Summary

    Mecha Man is dead.

    Well, not exactly.

    Robert Robertson III survived the explosion of Llewellyn Steel Works against all odds. The same couldn't be said for the others there.

    Except one.

    Invisibitch is on the run. Having collected the Astral Pulse from the bomb site and inadvertently taken over as public enemy #1 of the Red Ring since Shroud's demise, her priorities had shifted from "be the right hand woman to the man who finally gave her a chance" to "survive, whatever it takes." But running and hiding was only going to get her so far.

    Robert Robertson III scavenged together scraps of the demolished Mecha Man suit to repurpose at his late father's lab, located within the Robertson Industries campus. With the Astral Pulse in the wrong hands, there was no telling what damage could be done. He had to get it back. Whatever it took.

    They both are fighting for the same thing.

    Truth.

    But when the truth starts to get complicated for Robert and Courtney, two people who meet by complete chance in the shittiest dive bar in town, will they keep chasing it?

    And when the truth comes out...

    Something's got to give.

    Summary

    Last night Courtney dreamed about her philosophy professor going down on her. This morning she has to sit through his lecture on Kierkegaard's concept of despair without making eye contact.

    The problem is multifold: One, she's failing his class. Two, he's probably dating a colleague. Three, she's pretty sure her brain is trying to torture her by making the dreams progressively more detailed.

    She definitely should not stay after to beg for academic help. But she does anyway, because apparently self-preservation isn't her strong suit.

    (University AU, no powers, just poor life choices and some good sexual tension.)

    Summary

    Courtney's life is in shambles:

    Law school dropout (she can't do anything right).
    Exotic dancer (mad about it).
    Just got dumped (by her boss).

    The last thing she needs is some sad-eyed asshole walking into the club, pretending he doesn't want her.

    At least he's cute.
