Faalves

I think we found the perfect enrichment for human crew members.

Our humans really enjoyed this area we provided for them.

They can run, fall, climb and more, to their hearts content.

They really enjoy being lifted and thrown into a large pit of foam blocks, or plastic spheres.

Note: our crew is mostly Xarnian, so we possess the necessary strength to lift the average adult human despite the density they have evolved on their deathworld.

Human larvae enjoy it the most, but even the mature humans are also thrilled by these activities.

His whole job is ordering around of bratty ex villains like he's trying to leash them while they all work hard to get him to call them good boy/girl after a mission.

invisigal being the one who knows because she touches Robert while invisible and goes right through.

rumors that his power is some kind of spideysense for touch, or that there's eyes in the back of his head. the more magical members of SDN swearing that the building has a soul and that Robert specifically does not have one.

maybe even going to the bar as Mecha Man and not Robert.

Cooking up my SwapAU

Refs! Feel free to use them for your aus (with credit) The gist of this au is Shroud leads SDN. Z-team are a bunch of mediocre heroes who fucked up in one way or another. Roberts gets captured and is offered a deal to become a part of the phoenix program. He's hired as Z-team's dispatcher (totally not as a way to torture him) and given limited freedom.

I DO SAY @yipyapcloudi

So this au is pretty new and doesn't have a lot fleshed so I'm gonna just talk about what IS fleshed out, aka some of the character swaps, what those swaps mean for these characters, and also just. How I'm doing swaps since I know swap au can mean a lot of things.

When I say swap au I mostly mean Swapped Powers. Now, if those powers are connected to backstory or something similar, than that stays with changes (see Phenomaman and Waterboy). Same goes with current personality (see Flambae and Prism).

The current swaps that I'm sure of are:

Robert - Chase

Blonde Blazer - Invisigal

Sonar - Coupé

Phenomaman - Waterboy

Flambae - Prism - Punch Up

Golem - Malevola

now some LORE for them (small notes that I think the people would like

Flambae is a drag queen

Waterboy was actually very attractive on his planet of fish people. He is not so attractive on Earth.

Waterboy eats raw fish

Phenomaman is not an established hero, he's just a guy who has the same powers as canon(though not as extreme only because he doesn't train them)

Robert and Chase have only switched powers (mostly). Robert, at the time of the game, would have the appearance of a kid (for reasons I will elaborate on at some point).

While Sonar is still the visible hybrid, Coupé is the one with a big monster form (bird lady :) )

Everyone thinks Robert Robertson is the son of Blonde Blazer

Visi obviously freaks the fuck out -> she doesn't know why this guy's here, she doesn't know if he'll expose her or not, she definitely doesn't know why he's so interested in- wait, nevermind, no she gets that one. Everybody wants Robert

but everything else is up in the air!

The rest of the Z-Team is terribly confused bc- Toxic is so chill, y'all, what is your problem??? ↓ it comes out, of course, over the comms. vaguely, anyway:

Toxic: Don't you ever wanna talk about your emotions, Robbie? Robert: One, don't call me that. Two, no. Sonar, confused bc that's one of the main nicknames they've given him and it's never been a problem before: Wait- what's wrong with Robbie? Robert: Nothing, keep up the good work out there. Toxic: Oh, so they get to call you nicknames but it's a problem when I do it? Talk about favoritism... Robert: Considering they never helped in the murder of my father, yeah. They are. My- favorites, I mean. Compared to you- Toxic: Alright, alright! I get it, I get it... jeez. Talk about a grudge Z-Team: ...what?

"Well my dad died-"

"Eh."

"Eh? What do you mean eh?"

"Come on Bob Bob, dig a little deeper. Half of us had our dad die or dissappear."

"-or try to kill us."

"Or try to kill us. Come on, give us something unique."

It takes Robert a second to think other than the obvious when he remembers an incident from when he was eleven. He's drunk and laughing talking about how he was kidnapped and held hostage by someone who knew his father's identity. And the kicker? His dad didn't save him. He said he," knew his son could save himself on his own." And he did. After four days. And Robert's just laughing like it's the funniest thing, not noticing how everyone went dead silent before Sonar speaks up.

"Dude. That's legit fucked up."

Rob absolutely knows he started a harem (eventually) and now uses his pathetic sad boy energy to recrute more villains into the Z-team.

It starts when it becomes apparent that, for some reason, HR won't touch him. They come down on everyone else, but for some reason if they find out Robert is involved they drop the matter. Soon he realizes that he can just do anything. Its not that HR let's the other heros get away with shit, its that they let both Rob and the Z-team get away with shit on each other because its Rob.

(Cue several moments of Rob breaking up arguments just by butting in and kissing the two people in the argument. Its not even Z-team members, just random people and it works.)

The next logical step was to start dropping the crime rate by having Mechaman drop in and recruiting villains left and right.

He fights them just long enough to have them not retaliate immediately and the pops the hatch like

MM "Hey, wanna join the Z-team?"

Bad Guy "No. Why the fuck would I want to join?"

MM "It kinda sounds like you wanna join rn."

BG "Where in my fucking response did it sound like I wanted to join?"

MM *proceeds to break out the Depressed and Kicked Puppy Boy Energy(tm) as he throws a leg over one of the arms of the chair, man-spreading seductively* "Ya suuuure?

BG ". . .oh shit maybe?"

Mechaman proceeds to grab the guy and drag him outside to where the rest of the Z-team is cheering like Houston during the Apollo moon landing and holds the guy up saying

"BEHOLD! THE NEW FUCKTOY!"

"ALL HAIL THE NEW TOY!" the team screams.
