    Summary

    “It just… makes things fucking interesting, you know?”

    “...Really. How so?” Robert said, drawing each of the syllables out slowly.

    “It's like... a challenge," Flambae said, trying not to flounder. "I mean, sure, I pull whenever we go out but it’s like, not even hard, you get what I’m saying?” He gestured to their table: “not when the only other competition for those interested in dick is a furry, a stoner kid made of rocks, some 3ft loser who’s already fucking whipped, and fucking… I dunno. Connecticut Clark.”

    --

    The one in which Flambae invents an intricate ritual rather than admit he finds Robert attractive.

    Summary

    Grace had learned a long time ago there was a difference between giving up and giving in.

    Grace had once been told he was promising. Then he was told he was a joke.
    There was a certain torture in being told you’re gifted and could sit at the table with the best of the best, only to pull up a chair and be informed you’re the dumbest person in attendance. The fall from the tentative top was long and far.

    In which I explore Dr. Ryland Grace and the many ways he's; brilliant, larger than life, but ultimately human.

    Summary

    Rocky's voice is a bit staticky through his robot's speakers, but the frustration in it can be heard clear as day. "No, go left. Left, Grace, are you stupid!? You don't have to fight that guy!"

    "It's fine," Ryland grunts as he swings his staff right at the incoming monster. "I can handle myself!"

    "Try saying that again when your pretty face gets its shit kicked in."

    "You think I'm pretty!?"

    Rockbot freezes, going eerily still. Then, the actual Rocky shouts, "pretty annoying!"

    There's a small click as the comms cut off abruptly, and the robot's antenna droops as it shuts down. Next to Ryland, Colt grumbles, "Ry, don't piss off our only way out."

    Or: In a post-apocalyptic world, Grace is a Hollow raider that dives headfirst into dangerous territory to make a quick buck. Rocky and Adrian are his proxies—the voices behind the robots that help him navigate the hollows and guide him out of trouble.

    Technically, they're not supposed to mix business with romance. But this whole operation is illegal anyway, so what's one more crime to add to the list?

    Summary

    Colt and Ryland haven't been in contact for years, in fact Colt hasn't been in contact with his whole family for years. After being recruited during a movie where he had to fly multiple planes, they heavily criticized him for joining the navy like their dad. Too many traumatic memories were connected to the old man and his military discipline.

    Now after all these years, he gets the order to escort a group of important officers and scientists to a secret base in the middle of the ocean. He isn't aware that his twin brother would be on the ship.

    or:

    Colt being a navy pilot, Ryland being recruited for a secret operation due to his (failed) academic career. There's an explosion of the ship, Colt disobeys orders and tries to rescue his brother. (Pre-mission Ryland from the movie, he was recruited while being a teacher)
