Summary
Mech Man Blue was a hero. He was helping people, doing his best to be good and do good. But being 'good' has a line that Robert crosses. Abandoned by the city and the people he protected, Robert ends up in the same prison as his father's murderer.
The man who leaves the system is not the same one who entered.
Upon release, he no longer believes in clean lines between good and evil, thought of redemption long abandoned. He has to navigate a complicated relationship with Elliot Connors, and infiltrate SDN to retrieve the data that had been stolen. His growing affections for the team of misfits, especially one of them, bring complications to the calculations.

Summary
Javier gets along with most of the gang. Most. There’s a thorn in his side called John Marston, always picking at his patience and his nerves.
Their mutual dislike is hard to miss and they get taken on adventures where they have to rely on each other to make it because what is that concept? Coming together under shared trauma.
They guess that’s their fate - sharing trauma and finding out the hard way that they’re not so different after all.

Summary
“I’ve gone crazy,” he concludes aloud.
This must be the answer, because his dreams are never this stable, and he doesn’t believe in ghosts. He’s finally lost his ever-loving mind. The grief must have been too much. He’s become one of those men driven insane by tragedy.
“It’s me,” Arthur says, voice raspy around the edges. “You’re not crazy, John.”
_______
John spends two years trying and failing to move on. Returning to the States, he makes the most unlikely and infuriating discovery of the new century. Life has provided a second chance, and John refuses to let it go to waste.
