Okay so imagine this, Flambae has a huge Aquaphobia or Thalassophobia. Like of course he can handle like water im showers and drinking in all but huge bodily waters? Being on a bout thats surrounded by the deep dark ocean? Hell No. Let's just say he almost drowned as a kid ya know but has started to get over it over time until that episode happened where 8 think invisigal or Mal or anyone i dont remember, trapped him in a place where water rises and that made him relived his whole experience and (if where going by that one post if I remember correctly the post you made, I dont really remember so correctly me if im wrong) where he almost died by drowning again but Robert heard it through the comms yeah I feel like he would associate that with fear so he hardly gos to huge body of water. He would for his kids but only in shallow water and where he can visibly see the kids. Im unsure if he would express this fear with Robeet or just try to suppress it. Bury it maybe bc he thinks its stupid. I would also think he would deny it maybe.
Flambae absolutely suppresses it. Maybe he doesn't actually realize that it affected him so much. When the Z-Team invites him to the beach, he agrees easily until he gets there and realizes he can't bring himself to get close to the water, like, at all. Alice keeps tugging him to go swim with her. Herm has splashed him a few times, albeit accidentally.
Robert notices his discomfort and asks if Chad would like to simply sunbathe with him as he reads. Chad hates admitting defeat, but is glad for the excuse not to go into the water. Robert absolutely clocks it and helps keep Chad away from the water ever since.
So.. Lion king pose but Flambert. Like lets say Flambae held Binta like Simba and it just became a whole thing they do with the other two when their born. Like holding them up high like the chosen ones lol.
It's a family tradition
Unsure of what that meme is called butt is like where like a child or a loved one had a plush toy but they are clicking a plush toy and the plush toy is saying 'i love you' everytime their clicking the button inside. Thought it'll be an interesting concept to share for angst. Lowkey would see it as a flambert kids or just bringing back dead Robert/dead Flambae scenario
Mission gone wrong and Robert sits by Flambae's hospital bed, begging for him to wake up when he discovers the plushie gift Flambae gave him only days prior has a little button inside.
Hearing "I love you" clearly in Flambae's accented voice from the chibified toy version of him completely destroys Robert. He's gripping Flambae's cold hand tightly, sobbing so hard he can barely see through teary eyes, and repeating, "I love you too, fuck I love you so much. Please wake up, Bae." He'd give anything to hear it from him in person. He'd give anything for Flambae to hear his answer.
One of the two saving the other from drowning. Or trying to, if you feel like the angsty angst angle(>:3). Either way, these men are ending up in a situation as they are wont to do!
Basically, one of 'em gets knocked into the ocean. The other is trying to help with the rescue efforts, trying not to panic as the seconds tick by. Or they're just waiting nearby because their presence is more a hindrance than a help(panic and/or not water-oriented), so they can only watch and hope the rescue is fast and smooth. Because each second their partner stays underwater is another second they're running out of air and risk not resurfacing alive. And we know both these men would hate being forced to wait while letting someone else save their man!
And it can really go either way, so take your pick of who takes a dip into the Pacific(rhyming not intended lol)!
Fire and water don't mix, so Flambae is screwed because he can't just fly out. All any ignition attempts do is heat the water, which isn't helpful in getting out of said water. At least it's not cold around him, even if that's small potatoes when compared to possibly drowning. Hope Chad can swim! And that he's not injured or stuck! Not to mention! Possible flashbacks to the sensory deprivation tank sabotage in episode 3!
But another scenario that crept into the ol' noggin was the mech getting shot down and plummeting into the water. Far enough from the coast that it sinks pretty deep. Meaning a slower rescue, especially if the mech suit is not active. Bonus points if there's a hole or something in the mech. Not large enough to instantly fill it the second Mecha Man is submerged, but big enough that water is steadily leaking in and Robert is pulling himself as close to the top of the cockpit as he can to keep his head above the water for as long as possible.
I love putting these men in situations! >:3c
Flambae hates the water but I've been thinking of a specific scene where Flambae fully lets himself sink. There's no fighting it, there's no getting out. He thinks about how no one will even be able to find his body in the vast ocean. At least it's quiet, and calm once he's stopped thrashing.
It's cold, and dark, but somehow Flambae thinks it's not the worst way to go out. It's certainly ironic though.
Robert and the Z-Team manages to locate him and fish him out in time. When Robert learns that Flambae wasn't even fighting it, wasn't even trying to save himself, there's a deep sense of dread that settles in Robert, chilling him to the bone. He becomes extra protective of Flambae, and keeps him away from water at all costs.
No idea why but the song Let me down slowly would fit this scenario so bad if they get to bust Zarak.
Like
Zarak looking at his parents and Z Team as the Villain stays behind the shadow. Watching like a master watching hos puppet as Zarak tries to explain but it escalated.
Robert and Chad can clearly see the fear and guilt in Zarak's eyes. They're prepared to fight and take him down (without hurting him of course) but they know their son, and they know there must be more to the story.
Robert already has a bunch of contingency plans in place to lure out the mastermind.
I've been seeing some dragon flambae on my feed recently and was thinking about that typical fanfic trope where the love interest get scarificed/tries to kill the dragon who is the other love interest hehe
(sorry long ask incoming)
I was thinking for Robert being the sacrifice we could go the typical route of him being sent by the village. But if he was the Mecha man equivalent, maybe instead of being scarificed, he would scarifice himself. In this AU I think Robert would be a knight or a rogue (like vigilante esk)
Like maybe there would be some big worldly plague or disaster and he would want to save the town. So everyone prays to the mountain top dragon etc etc. Then a rumor and tale goes around that the dragon can help or the dragon is causing havoc, as it's close to being a deity and all, but it comes with the price of a human scarifice/someone should scarifice themselves to kill the dragon.
So Robert decides he can't save the town from evil if the townspeople don't exist, and sets himself off to be scarificed/to scarifice his life to slay the dragon
Then like flambae the dragon has beef with Mecha man like normal (or Mecha knight? lol) cuz robert took one of his horns in a battle where he tried to terrorise the city or smth but he stopped terrorising the city from fear of the (stunning and lowkey hot) knight that took his horn (dragons has a troupe of being submissive to those that defeat them so I think he is butt hurt but absolutely wants this metallic powerful mortal being in his nest hahaha)
For the 2nd scenario of like needing to slay the dragon I think it's obviously a misunderstanding from the time flambae terrorised the city and like this is his retribution so the townsfolk kind blame Mecha knight maybe, hehe angst.
But yeah that's my thoughts I wanted to share hehe :P
- xenphone
Very in character for Flambae to be both butt-hurt that his horn was taken and also highly admire the human that took it and wants him in his nest. The fact that he just saunters in himself? Flambae couldn't have planned it better himself and he now happily keeps Robert in his nest at all times. The village fully thinks Robert was eaten or something because they don't see him again.
Maybe Flambae permits Robert to go back and visit after a while and the villagers freak out.
"What?"
The world stops for a moment. Robert stops breathing.
"He didn't tell you?" Blazer's voice is soft, gentle, a little too delicate like she's stepped on cracking ice and is trying to get off. "He was offered a transfer to Portland."
"No." Robert's voice sounds foreign to himself. "He never mentioned it."
Blazer looks at him knowingly, her smile twisting apologetically. Robert stands abruptly, stiff. "Sorry, I, um, need to go."
"Oh, yes, of course." Blazer lets him go with a sympathetic nod. "See you tomorrow, Robert."
Robert doesn't respond to that. He heads straight home, head buzzing with half-formed thoughts and questions and a growing sense of dread that seems to spread from his chest to his fingertips.
It's hard to describe the immense fear Robert feels.
Flambae is the sun, he is the stars, he belongs out there. For bigger, better things. He is what the myths said no one could touch—not Icarus, and certainly not Robert.
When Robert unlocks the front door with shaky fingers, what greets him is a sight so painfully normal, he almost forgets what he was so worried about.
"Welcome home." Chad calls from the kitchen, the smell of warm spices permeating through the entryway. His hair is thrown up in a messy bun, wearing an apron and sweatpants. "Perfect timing, I just finished cooking so change and come eat."
Robert swallows. He should say something, but the initial rush of emotions have escaped him, so he nods dumbly and heads to the bedroom to change out of his work clothes.
He returns to the dining table as Chad hums one of Alice's recent releases, setting the plates.
Robert sits down and stares at the food, staring at the kimchi stew and braised short ribs that he had mentioned craving yesterday.
His heart twists so painfully and he hates that he's not the least bit hungry.
Chad takes his seat across from him, now looking at Robert with a light frown. "Did something happen with Blazer?"
"Huh?" Robert startles. "No, not really."
"So why are you being so fucking weird?" Chad leans in a little closer on his elbows, scrutinizing Robert's expression. "Are you upset at me?"
Say it. Just ask.
"Blazer said you were offered a transfer." The words stumble out of his mouth. "Why didn't you tell me?"
Chad pauses, eyes widening a fraction before relaxing. He leans back and shrugs. "Why should I tell you?"
A flash of anger bursts inside of Robert. "Why should you? I'm your fucking boyfriend, you need to tell me if you're moving out of the fucking state you ass—"
"I'm not." Chad cuts Robert off dismissively with a wave of a hand. "I already turned it down so why does it matter?"
"You—" Robert blinks, his mouth falling open. "You what?"
"I turned it down." Chad repeats, emphasizing the words.
Everything rushes out of Robert all at once. He's left utterly dumbfounded, sitting gaping in disbelief. "Why would you do that?"
"Why?" Chad throws the question back incredulously. "Maybe because my family is here? My team? Because you're here? Why would I give that all up?"
"But," Robert trembles, just a little, feeling his eyes prickle. "But it's a great fucking opportunity. A chance to do some real good, to go further than you can here." Robert doesn't really know what he's saying anymore.
"Yeah." Chad sighs, pulling his hair loose. Robert can't help but be enamored by the way his inky dark hair falls across his shoulders, curling so elegantly. "It's either advancing my career as a hero or stay where all my friends and family are. I think it's a pretty easy choice, to be honest."
Robert gives out an incredulous, wet laugh. "I was so upset you were going to leave without telling me. Now I'm upset you didn't take it at all." He buries his face in his hands, a flood of emotions washing over him. "Fuck."
"Did you want me to take it?" Chad asks, his voice wavering in uncertainty.
"No." Robert curses. "Yes. I don't—I don't know." The tears come finally. "I don't want you to go." The admittance hurts more than anything.
"Robert." There it is, his name called so very softly, so lovingly. It only makes Robert stifle a sob and press his palms harder against his eyes. "Eshgham, c'mere." Robert doesn't move, but hears Chad get up to move over to him, taking the seat beside him. Warm hands graze his wrists to pull his hands away from his face, and he's swiftly pulled into a hug, pressed into Chad's warm chest.
Robert melts into it and lets himself cry.
"It's okay," Chad murmurs softly, "I'm not going anywhere. Idiot."
Robert thinks again of the sun, of the stars. So so so far away. Always admired but never reached, never touched.
Flambae belongs to everyone. Is it selfish that Robert wants Chad all to himself?
"Don't go." Robert whispers, wrapping his arms tight around Chad's torso, pressing himself closer, digging his nails into shoulder blades. "Please don't leave me."
"I already said I'm not." Chad tries to tease but it falls flat considering how worried his undertone is. "Don't cry, my love. I'm sorry, I should've told you earlier."
"Sorry." Robert sniffles into Chad's chest. "I'm so sorry. I should let you go, but I don't want to. I'm sorry. I'm so selfish." Robert sobs, "I'm sorry I'm holding you back."
"Stop that." Chad sounds heated now, his skin growing a little too warm. "You know that's not true. You make me better, you make all of the Z-Team better. Stop fucking saying that. I chose not to go. I want to stay here."
Robert doesn't respond, he just keeps sniffling.
"Jesus fucking christ, you're such a fucking idiot." Chad mumbles, pulling Robert fully onto his lap so he can hold him closer. "I don't need to be the best fucking hero, Robert. Some things can't be replaced, and you're one of them. My family too. And the Z-Team. I won't give any of that up for anything, not even for a billion dollars." Warm kisses are pressed against Robert's hairline. "So stop fucking crying and get it into your thick skull that I'm not leaving already."
Robert manages a weak laugh, followed by a shaky sigh. "Love you." Inside, he knows what he really means is, I can't fucking live without you.
"Âsheghetam." Chad replies, his voice thick with affection. "Ugh, now I have to heat everything up again."
Robert giggles but shows no intention of moving. And maybe Chad doesn't mind, even if the food is cold.

A.u where Chase dies in the ep however years later, One of the misfits kids actually kinda looks like, acts like and has the same or similar powers like Chase. And what a coincidence that his birthday is the same day Chase dies?
This is sweet but also gives me the same feeling as Robert naming his child after Chase. Sweet but leaves a sense of expectations on the child and strings attached with that "legacy," the same way Robert's name will always carry the Mecha Man legacy. I want all of the new generation kids (whether Robert's biological child, adopted, or an apprentice) to be their own person and nothing more.
Not to mention, it'd be weird to have someone Robert is now responsible for to reflect someone he once considered a parental figure/looked up to? Idk it's just a weird dynamic for me.
So you know how Superman knows Batman heartbeat. Like he memorized it and everything?? How about something similar with Robert and Flambae? Like the best I can think id Flambae knowing Roberts body heat? Like What if Flambae can sensed body heat and he just memorized Robert?? Or Robert memorized Flambae voice?
I think Robert definitely has Flambae's heartbeat memorized (not like he has his heart rate monitored all the time noo he would never). Robert's favorite thing in the world is lying on Chad's chest and following the rhythm of his heart. He's especially obsessed with the way it skips and speeds up depending on what Robert does, like if he gives Chad a kiss or gives him a soft compliment. If it slows too much Robert will freak out.
Chad knows Robert's body heat, but more than that, he knows the perfect temperature to make himself, catering to Robert's comfort. He'll adjust his own temperature according to Robert, like if he's a little sick and feeling colder, Chad will warm himself up more. He's absolutely the optimal Robert's-heating-pad temperature at all times.
