Editing Byron Vera (section)

===Post-[[Mathers Compound Assault|Fallen fall]]===
The twins were part of the [[Heroes vs. Trial and Error|action]] against [[Trial]] and [[Error]] where their powers proved ineffective.

When the team were mastered by [[Goddess]], Byron was the only one to avoid it, due to Tristan being out instead of him at the time. He attempted to convince the team to stop, and even attacked Victoria, to no avail. Enacting Master-Stranger protocols, he managed to convince Victoria to follow his lead, and they went to help the [[Major Malfunctions]] in a fight with the [[Pharmacist]] and [[Teacher]]s thralls.<ref>[[Gleaming 9.5]]</ref>

After the fight, Byron revealed to Victoria the deal the Capricorn brothers had made with [[Barcode]]. Namely, that Barcode would ensure that the brothers were giving each other an equal amount of time, with the alternative being a fate worse than death.<ref>“We meet up every few days.  We confirm we’re okay, we swap.  There are two or three people who show up, sometimes with backup, whoever they’re working with at the time.  One is usually a thinker.  They can read people.  Read us.” - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/09/08/gleaming-9-6/ Excerpt] from [[Gleaming 9.6]]</ref>

When Goddess arrived at the Breakthrough headquarters, Byron was mastered like the rest of the team. He participated in the takeover, the [[Antares vs Lung|fight]] against [[Lung]], and stopped the ankle bombs from working.

After Goddess was killed, Byron and Tristan met up with [[Barcode]] and started a new deal.<ref>[[Interlude 9.z II]]</ref>
