Gavin and Hank’s After-Midnight Sanity Tour 2038
I know I have another WIP I should be working on (and I still am, don’t worry), but I thought I’d give myself a little break from the angst in Duality of Light that, of course, DBH needed (not really) a Convenience Store AU series. It’s a really short read, but this will be added to here and there in the future lol.

Chapter 2: Hank
Previous:1
Next:3
Get ready for some Hank & Connor hurt/comfort. Dad!Hank is best Hank imo.
For the first time in his short existence, Connor had no objective. His life had always been filled with prompts and commands, small guidance to lead him through life and to help him complete his mission. Now, it was just a blank screen. Even his warning signals had gone away. He felt the cold metal of Jericho under his hands and the blinding hot stares of the other androids in the room on his back. Had he deviated? They got what they wanted in the end, there was no way that he could go back to Cyberlife and tell them about Jericho nor was there any way for him to rejoin the police force for the remainder of the deviancy cases.
He was a deviant now, no matter how much he didn’t want to be. Connor turned and looked at the faces of the androids that had done this to him. Without saying anything, he grabbed his beanie off of the floor and tugged it back onto his head, securing it low down to where it covered where his LED should have been. Shakily, he pushed himself up off of the floor, swaying as he stood on his feet. Everything felt off-kilter like somebody had gone in and ripped around in his wires. The others were looking at him expectantly.
Like deviating had somehow changed him in a drastic way. Perhaps it had, because before he was thinking he said, “they’re going to attack Jericho.”
—
Connor used their confusion and panic to slip out the back and away from the ship. He didn’t owe them anything, and he had done his best to warn them of the attack. If they were smart, they would take this time to evacuate and probably destroy the ship. It was safer to relocate somewhere else that didn’t have their name painted on the side like a flashing beacon anyway.
He didn’t know what to do next. Checking the HUD again, and there were still no messages. Cyberlife hadn’t tried to contact him. Granted, they wouldn’t really be able to then but still. Did they know he had gone deviant yet? Amanda or one of the others would have probably tried to message him about his progress by now. Or, they would be doing so shortly. Maybe they thought that he was going to die when the attacks happened…
Was that what they had planned?
All that Connor knew was that he felt a bone-deep tiredness and needed to sleep go into stasis mode. There weren’t many places he could go to do this, but he bet that he could probably go and see the Lieutenant.
Winter as a deviant was a lot harsher than winter as a machine. It was very unpleasant and made Connor’s movements sluggish. Still no objectives, but there was a new warning across his HUD.
「Warning: LOW TEMPERATURES, SEEK WARMTH」
「Warning: LOW POWER, AUTOMATIC STASIS IN 00:03:40:10」
He had around four hours until his body naturally shut down and would force him to go into stasis. How much power had he drained? Checking his status, it showed that he had around a 4% charge. His distress and his processors running rapidly had almost completely depleted his stored energy. What would have happened if he had gone into stasis before telling Markus and the others about the attack? They all surely would have died at that point, and the rebellion would have been finished. Either way, Cyberlife would have won and Connor would have been killed in the process.
It was an uncomfortable feeling in the pit of his stomach. No matter the circumstances, if he hadn’t deviated and told them about the attack, both himself and the entirety of the android revolution would have been destroyed in one fell swoop. It was a bit surreal. The consequences of his actions were unintentionally saving his life, and the lives of all the other androids on the ship, if they had bothered to evacuate. Who was on the boat exactly? He hadn’t had the time to scan all of the faces. Were they all non-violent, as Markus claimed to be? Is that why he had never heard of them before?
Connor didn’t have time to think about that right now though. He needed to get to the Lieutenant’s house unless he wanted to go into unprompted stasis on the cold streets of Detroit. His body would fully shut down if that happened.
—
Connor had the automated taxi drop him off about three blocks from the Lieutenant’s. He wanted to make it harder for them to track his movements (though, since he deviated his trackers should be useless). Besides, he had warmed up a bit in the taxi so his biocomponents weren’t at a critical level anymore. He also had about two and a half hours until he went into unprompted stasis.
Connor was trying to think of things to say on the walk over to Lieutenant Anderson’s house. How was he supposed to explain what happened? He would surely have questions for the android. This new emotion, which he cataloged away, made him feel like maybe he should try to find somewhere else to go into stasis. That wasn’t really an option, though, as it was late and he couldn’t risk shutting down outside. He could maybe tell him that he’ll talk to him after he rests for a while? Connor knew that the Lieutenant had a charging station at his house, just in case Connor had to charge. He also understood that he probably wasn’t very fond of having that charging station, since he had a negative view on androids.
The porch light was off when Connor approached the house. It didn’t surprise him though, as his internal clocks read that it was 1:43am. Lieutenant Anderson may not even be awake, so if Connor wakes him up he may be grouchy and not let the android inside. A message popped up, stating that if Connor woke up the Lieutenant that he had about a 64% chance of being let inside, but if he just found the spare key and let himself in, that jumped up to a 93% chance of being able to stay inside for the night. So, Connor scanned the surrounding area calculating where the spare key would be hidden. He didn’t want to just bust through the man’s window again. Connor didn’t think he would enjoy a repeat performance.
A quick scan showed that the key was hidden behind a loose brick on the side of the house. Not as obvious a hiding place as a false rock, but it was easy enough to wriggle out and grab the silver key. Connor put the brick back and put the key in the lock. When he entered the house, he noticed immediately how much warmer it was than the outside. A rush of relief fell over him. He quickly locked the door back and put the key on the kitchen table. Then, he grabbed the charger from the corner, plugged it in, and moved over to the couch to curl up. Sumo ‘boofed’ softly at him, following him onto the couch and curling up in his lap. After plugging in, Connor let himself enter stasis naturally and sagged against the couch.
That was the way that Lieutenant Anderson found him a few hours later. Connor was startled out of stasis when Hank let out a loud shout.
“What the hell Connor? What’re you doing on my couch?” Connor blinked up at him, his systems taking a few seconds to come back online. It showed that he went from 4% charge to around 35% charge, so it was enough to keep him going for a while.
“Oh, hello Lieutenant Anderson. I was running low on charge, so I came by to charge. Sorry if it was a shock to see me, but you were the closest place and my biocomponents were going to be damaged out in the cold.” Hank looked puzzled. He knew that the android usually went to Cyberlife to charge, or stayed at one of the police stations charging ports overnight. Yes, he had bought the charger for Connor to use, but he didn’t think he was in critical enough condition to have to use it.
“I’m not sure how you got into my house, but seeing as there’s no broken glass I guess you used the spare key. You must have been in pretty rough shape to come directly here since the police and Cyberlife have much better chargers than I do.” Connor drew in a sharp breath. He wanted to try to hide his deviancy from the Lieutenant, but he knew that he wouldn’t be able to. It would be fairly obvious that he was a deviant, and it’s not like he could hide it forever. Cyberlife would come knocking when they realized that he was still online. Then they would kill and disassemble him to study his deviancy like they had wanted to do to Markus.
“I-I can’t go back to Cyberlife,” Connor stuttered, “I’m not of..use to them anymore.” As a deviant, was he of use to anybody anymore? Emotions and not knowing what to do were really confusing.
“What do you mean you can’t go back? Did you fail your mission or something?” Hank asked, sitting down on the couch next to Connor. He felt like the android was going to want to talk this out, whatever had happened.
“I wasn’t able to capture Markus. He..compromised me. Now, Cyberlife is going to kill me if they get a hold of me.” Connor was trying to stay strong but he felt like he was going to collapse again. His model wasn’t made to handle such intense feelings. They just got in the way of the mission. They served no purpose to him.
“Kill? Connor, I don’t think they’re going to kill you for making a mistake. I mean, you’ve failed a few missions in the past and you’ve been alright.” Hank was concerned. Connor could read that his stress level had gone up by 3% since the last thing that Connor had said. Connor suddenly felt another wave of panic hit him, and he let out a small sob.
“H-hank, they made me deviate.” Hank was shocked. First, Connor had called him Hank to his face, something the Lieutenant had been trying to get him to do for a little while now. Secondly, they ‘forced’ him to deviate? He wasn’t aware that could occur. He knew that androids deviated under intense stress and bad situations, but he had always known it of being of their own free will.
“Connor, it’s okay,” Hank said, putting his arm around the android, pulling him into his side. He used to do this when Cole was upset. “What happened, son?”
At that point, Connor wished he could interface with Hank. It would be so much easier, and Connor wouldn’t have to go through it again. He let out a shuddering breath, before explaining what had happened. From his arrival to Jericho to the pen knife to compromising the mission by telling them about the attack, and ending with him on the couch. He didn’t voice his concerns about Cyberlife planning to kill him from the very beginning, because he didn’t want to think about them right then.
Hank’s face changed from passive to enraged by the end of the story. “That’s total bullshit. I’m going to kill Markus personally, that’s not something that you do to another living being.”
“Lieutenant, please,” Connor said, “I didn’t like it, but he was trying to protect his people. They couldn’t kill me, and they couldn’t just wipe my memory.” Connor wasn’t sure if he would ever trust or like Markus after that, but deep down he did understand that even if it wasn’t fair, he was their enemy at the time. Hank killing Markus wouldn’t do anything to solve his problems.
“He’s still a bastard,” Hank said, “and he better never get near you again or I will end him.” He stroked Connor’s hair. He couldn’t imagine the turmoil that Connor must be going through. He had shown signs of deviancy since they first met: ignoring orders, his coin trick, his excessive amounts of empathy; and Hank may have been trying to nudge Connor in that general direction, but it should have been his own choice, not forced upon him like that. All of that on top of the fact that Cyberlife would probably hunt down Connor now. Hank had to try to keep him safe.
“It’s going to be okay Connor, we’ll figure something out,” Hank reassured him, “I know you said your power was low, what are you at now?”
“I’m at 34% charged,” Connor said.
“Okay, why don’t you go back into stasis for a while until you’re fully charged. Then, we’ll come up with something.” Hank gave Connor a small smile. Connor nodded, laying back down on the couch. Hank brought a quilt for the android, but when he got back Connor was already in stasis. So, Hank tucked the blanket around him and left him there to charge while he came up with a semblance of a solution to their issue.
I apologize for this chapter taking so long, it was a surprisingly difficult one for me to write and I had some irl stuff going on this week. I also have the outlines for the rest of the story and unless anything changes it should be 5 chapters. Anyway, here’s the chapter, hope you guys like it!
Also, Hank gets his one alotted fuck.
The past two weeks had been hard for Connor. He spent most days inside trying to process what happened to him while Hank went to work. Things seemed to be moving on in the world, and going back to an uneasy ‘normal.’ News had slowly stopped covering the Jericho raid when they learned that there wasn’t much to report on. Not much happened, and what information that could be learned was wrapped up in so much red tape that it made their heads spin.
It seemed like Connor’s warning had been helpful. Most of the androids had escaped, Hank told him a few days after the incident. Connor was conflicted about this. He was glad that he could help those who were just trying to survive, but it made him uneasy that Markus was still out there. He knew logically that Markus needed to survive through this, but his emotions dealing with the deviant leader were muddy at best.
Connor didn’t lie to Hank when he said that he understood the basic motives behind Markus’s actions, but it was different looking at it from an outsider’s perspective and living through it.
Connor was watching the news when Hank came in the house. There were heavy footsteps shuffling through the front entry to the living room where Connor was sitting on the couch. Hank looked at the android, noticing that he was still wearing his beanie. Connor had worn it since the first time he woke up on Hank’s couch as a comfort item of sorts. It made it easier to process everything if he wasn’t constantly reminded of his LED. Connor was sure it would be cycling red these days if it was still there.
Hank seemed distressed. Connor wanted to scan him to check, but he picked up that it made Hank uncomfortable when he was scanned randomly. Instead, Connor took the more ‘human’ approach. “How was your day?” Connor asked Hank, as the man sat down on the couch next to Connor. Connor pulled his knees up to his chest and sat his head on top of them.
“Same shit, different day,” Hank sighed. He flipped the tv from the news to a rerun of the previous night’s basketball game. He then turned down the volume and turned to Connor. “The FBI’s on our asses right now about the deviant ‘problem.’ They know just as much as we know right now, and it makes them frustrated.” Connor thought for a moment.
“Hank, why are you still working on the deviant case? You have me here, and I’m deviant, so isn’t it against your best interest to be on the case? You could get in a lot of trouble for housing me from the police.” Hank frowned.
“Oh Con, I don’t really want to work the case. It’s just the best way to stay in the loop on developing information though, and I can keep you safer this way,” Hank put his warm hand on Connor’s shoulder, “yeah, I’m a bit worried about them finding out about you being here, but so far nobody’s spotted you and Cyberlife hasn’t contacted the police about your disappearance either. Speaking of Cyberlife, have they tried to contact you at all?”
Connor shook his head no. It confused him that Cyberlife hadn’t tried to get in touch with him for two weeks. Granted, he didn’t want them to but it was weird that they wouldn’t at least try to. Also, nobody had tried to contact him for two weeks. Nobody from Jericho came by, nor did anybody from the police station. It was radio silence. The android was concerned by this, as Cyberlife used to require him to report in every 3 hours and upload the important memories from that time period. The last time he forgot to check in, Amanda had personally visited him in his internal zen garden. That seemed like so long ago, even though it had only been about a month ago. Connor hadn’t been activated that long ago, so he supposed it was a long time ago to him.
“Well, that’s probably better that they don’t try to. I wouldn’t imagine how they would react if they found out that you were a deviant.” It wouldn’t be pretty, that’s for sure. Hank knew that they would want to ‘deactivate’ Connor and probably replace him like they had done previously. Though, this time, they wouldn’t upload his memories most likely. The Connor that he knew, the Connor that he considered a son, would cease to exist. That thought frightened Hank more than he’d like to admit.
Hank seemed to become less stressed with knowing that nobody had tried to contact Connor. Since Connor had come to live with him, Hank had found himself drinking a lot less than he used to. In the past two weeks, he had only drunk a little bit each night to try to stave off withdrawal that he knew would hit if he stopped cold turkey. Connor monitored his drinking though and made sure that he didn’t drink more than one drink a night. It was still rough, but he wanted to be there for Connor in ways that he couldn’t if he was drunk. After grabbing dinner that Connor had made for Hank (the lieutenant wasn’t sure where Connor had learned to cook, as he was pretty sure that Cyberlife hadn’t programmed him to be able to) and his one drink, he settled down on the couch again with Connor. The two men sat in comfortable silence, watching some movie from the early 2000s for the rest of the night.
—
“There is no way in hell that I’m doing that!” Hank yells at Fowler, the man sitting behind his desk with an irritated look on his face.
“You will do this Hank. The FBI is pushing this as a quick solution to the deviancy problem seeing as no other leads have been found, and they have no clue where Markus and the rest of the deviants are.” Fowler glared at the man in front of him. Hank had once been the best detective on the force, but in recent years he was but little of a shell of his previous self. He had tried to understand when Hank’s son had been taken from him, but it had gone on long enough.
“You’re talking about rounding up and killing all of the androids, regardless if they’re deviant or not.” Hank’s hands were balled into fists. He knew the FBI would do anything to track down the deviants and smooth over the public’s fears, but this was talking about the extermination of an entire group of people. It was heinous and inexcusable. They would round them all up, even his own son, and kill them. Government sanctioned murder with the help of the one and only Cyberlife.
“They aren’t people Hank, you can’t kill them. They’re just machines, and this is essentially a recall by Cyberlife. They’ll dismantle the models, figure out what the bug was, and then start production again. The FBI will leave us alone again, and then things will go back to normal once the panic calms down. Cyberlife has issued their recall, and the police will be going house to house to collect any androids that are present. Those are our orders, and you are going to follow them.”
Hank’s heart almost stopped. They’re going door-to-door? He knew that people would just hand over their androids, the panic of deviancy and threat of legal action too great to try to hide them. This also meant that he would be visited as well. Connor wasn’t safe at his house anymore, and like hell, he was going to send him into the hornet’s nest of Jericho or let Cyberlife get their hands on him again. Hank had to leave with Connor, and quickly before they blocked off areas to search.
“Fuck your orders,” Hank slammed his badge down on the desk, “and tell Perkins to go shove this up his ass while you’re at it. I’m not helping you hunt them down like feral dogs. I quit.” He promptly turns and walks briskly out of the office and out of the police station. He didn’t have time to deal with their shit, he had to protect his son.
—
Hank had messaged Connor as soon as he got in his car. He didn’t explain much but told the android to start packing essentials only. When Hank pulled into the driveway and went inside, Connor was almost done. He had a go bag packed for Hank that had about a week’s worth of clothes, his medication, toiletries, and wallet. He also had a bag packed with some food for Hank, a lighter, and blankets. Connor had also put the bag of dog food near the door and Sumo’s water and food dishes next to it.
“Wow, that’s amazing Connor. That was quick,” Hank marveled. It was only a ten-minute drive from the precinct to his house, but Connor had managed to pack all of this that quickly?
Connor’s cheeks turned a light blue from the praise. “I had predicted that we would need to leave eventually, so I had some of the stuff packed already,” Connor admitted to Hank. It was smart thinking, but Hank felt a bit guilty that Connor had to deal with this on his own. He should have tried to prepare more beforehand, but that was in the past now. What mattered was getting Connor somewhere safe.
“C’ mon, load Sumo’s stuff in the car and get in. I’ll explain what’s going on then.” With that, Connor grabbed Sumo’s stuff and the bag of food. Hank leashed Sumo up, pausing in the kitchen to grab Cole’s picture before heading out. He turned back to look at his house, bidding it and the memories in it a temporary goodbye. He promised that when this was all sorted out, they’d be back.
—
Hank picked an abandoned house on the edge of town. It would be better to leave Detroit altogether, but they weren’t prepared to do that at the moment. So, they would stay there for a few days while Hank and Connor planned what to do next. When Hank had told Connor what was happening with the police, he was distraught. They were planning on killing all of them. Connor moved the stuff inside of the house while Hank hid the car inside of the abandoned garage. It wasn’t the best place to stay, but it was relatively well maintained and Connor only predicted a 3% chance of the house giving out while they were there as long as they stuck to the first floor.
It was nightfall by the time the pair was settled in. Connor had set up a makeshift cot for Hank. He wished that he could make a better bed for him, but it was the best that he could do with what was given to him. They were both sitting on the pallet, Hank eating a can of chicken soup that Connor had warmed up for him. Sumo laid across their feet. It was quiet, the slight draft from the window coming into the living room where they were.
That was until there was a long creak as the front door was opened. “What the hell?” Hank turned to Connor. Connor had made sure to lock the front door. The question of what happened was quickly answered as none other than Markus walked into the living room. Hank jumped to his feet. “What the hell do you think you’re doing here?”
Family Reunion
Rating: mature
Ship: Connor/Gavin

Chapter: 1/5
Summary: Gavin is going to a family reunion, but he doesn’t have a date. Of course, he has to ask the android he’s been pining for. What could possibly go wrong?

Connor honestly didn’t expect these words to come out of Gavin’s mouth, especially not directed at him.
“I’m sorry, what?” He asked, shaking his head. There was no way he had heard that right.
Gavin huffed and crossed his arms, looking anywhere except at Connor. “I said, will you be my boyfriend?”
So he didhear that right. Huh. They didn’t get along, but they didn’t… fight. He had found that his eyes frequently followed Gavin, and who could blame him?
“You’re asking me to be your boyfriend.” He squints his eyes, scanning over Gavin. He wasn’t intoxicated or high. He seemed to be in his right mind, except for the question.
He felt a spark run down his spine and hope rise up. He pushed it down, deep down. There had to be a good reason for this.
“Phck. It’s my family. They are having their get together. I told them I had a boyfriend, which I don’t have, obviously. No way in hell am I telling them I lied.” Gavin sighed, shaking his head.
That… made more sense. He didn’t know about Gavin’s family as he never asked, or dug deep into his file. He never had a reason to.
Could he fake being in love with Gavin? The easy answer is yes. The extended answer is yes, but it might kill him.
He found himself attracted to Gavin, and not just for his physical appearance. When Gavin wasn’t around others he was actually pleasant. He talked about his cats, which Connor found quite charming.
He would also talk about his cases to Connor if they somehow were alone. Each time Connor would try to have input that could help, and each time Gavin would nod. Then he’d absentmindedly pat him on the shoulder and wander off.
His shoulder always tingled in an unusual way afterwards. When he first did that he had worried Gavin had planted something on him that caused this. He ran scans and they always came back clear.
This would allow him to learn more about Gavin, and get closer to him both physically and emotionally. Though it did have the possibility of Gavin finding out about his affections towards him. The probability of that was 77%.
The probability of Gavin reacting well to it was at 44%, the odds of him reciprocating the feelings was at 13%. Not the best odds. There was still the chance, though.
“Alright.” He shrugged. It was worth the risk. Gavin’s eyes went wide and arms slack.
He stared at Connor for a few seconds, just gawking. The probability of him reacting well went up by 1%. “Wait, really? Did you say yes? Phck, was not expecting that.” Gavin chuckled, shaking his head.
“I think it could be fascinating. We should exchange information so we can discuss this later.” He says, looking around the small breakroom. This definitely wasn’t a good place to have this discussion.
Gavin nods and rummages around his pockets until he finds what he’s looking for. He pulls out a pen and hesitates for a second.
Connor is about to tell him he can just say his number and he’d remember when the thought flies out of his head. Gavin takes his hand and writes on his palm. It feels odd against his skin, not really scratchy but not completely smooth either.
Gavin nods to himself and puts the pen back and just holds Connor’s hand for just a second longer before letting go.
[Probability of positive reaction: 46%]
Connor looks at his palm and adds Gavin to his list of contacts he has received numbers for. He had all of the officer’s numbers but never felt comfortable calling them without their permission.
Connor nods and sends a message to Gavin’s phone. ’ Detective, this is Connor .’
Gavin jumps slightly when his phone vibrates and pulls it out, rolling his eyes. “Right, sometimes forget you don’t actually have a phone.”
Connor shrugs; he never found a reason to get one, it was just a waste of money. He now made his own, and he didn’t want to waste it on that.
“Right, well… ok. Guess I’ll talk to you later?” Gavin asks. “This is fucking weird,” he muttered to himself. Connor still picked up on it with his advanced hearing but brushed it off, after all, it is quite weird.
Connor nodded and grabbed the coffee he had been making for Hank. “Talk to you later.”
He walked back and handed the coffee to Hank. His mind was elsewhere when he sat down, trying to go back to work.
“What did that fucker say?” Hank grumbles, glaring towards the break room.
Connor just shook his head, mostly to clear his thoughts. “Nothing. Well, not nothing. This isn’t the place.”
He grabbed a pen and nibbled on the tip as he finally focused on the work. Because of that, he didn’t see Gavin staring at him from across the room with a blush on his face.
Connor sits at the bar, sipping the android-friendly drink. They still hadn’t made drinks that would simulate being intoxicated, but he didn’t mind.
Gavin had asked him out to talk over the plans. He originally suggested a different bar, Connor had pointed out that the bar was known to be anti-android, even after the revolution.
Gavin had flushed and scowled at himself for not thinking of that. He then asked where Connor would recommend.
He had been working on getting Hank sober, but it was a long-drawn process. So when Hank did go out he followed along and soon Hank found android-friendly bars. It was sweet of Hank to consider him.
So he had plenty of places in mind. He figured this one would be the best. It was never too busy and always had a good mix of android and human alike, so neither one of them would stick out.
It didn’t bother him that Gavin wasn’t here yet, after all, he was early. He was anxious about their meeting and had left earlier than needed.
He had told Hank about his… feelings and what was going to happen. Hank had laughed his ass off and then tried to comfort Connor. “I’ve read enough fanfics to know how this is going to end,” Hank had said while snickering.
He’s never talked to Gavin outside of work, never even sees him. Most of his time when not working is either spent with Hank or trying something new.
He looks up each time the door opens and sighs and goes back to drinking whenever it’s not Gavin.
He feels someone walk up behind him and doesn’t react. The chances of being attacked here are very low.
He does jump when a hand grips his shoulder and someone leans in. He can smell the alcohol on their breath as they speak. “Hey, Pretty Boy,” the man sneers.
Connor sighs and glares over his shoulder. “I am currently waiting on someone. Please leave me alone.” He states this plainly, his tone serious.
“Too good for a human? Is that it? Heard y'all are good fucks. I’m sure I can make you scream.” The man pushes his hand down Connor’s chest.
Connor could grab the man and easily throw him off. He doesn’t though because of one thing.
Even with the revolution being a year ago the relationship between humans and androids was tense. As part of the leaders of Jericho, (though he didn’t think of himself as one) him hurting a human, no matter the reason could make things more unfavorable.
“If anyone is gonna be screaming it’s you. He is an officer of the law and the most advanced android. He could break every bone in your body while naming it. Not to mention he’s my boyfriend.” He heard Gavin snarl from the side.
Connor looks up with wide eyes. He was too distracted to notice him come in, and he didn’t expect this.
“Fucking fags,” the man grumbles, snatching his hand back. That made no sense to Connor; Connor was very obviously male and presenting as male.
He watches as Gavin clenches his fist and tenses. Connor makes a quick decision and reaches out, grabbing his hand. Gavin looks down at Connor and slowly relaxes.
He doesn’t fully relax until the man is gone. Once he is, Connor pulls his hand back, a blush growing on his cheeks.
Gavin doesn’t say anything as he sits and orders himself a drink. Connor watches him with questioning eyes. Had he meant to call him his boyfriend? Was it just a joke because they were going to pretend to be together? Or was it to just get the man to leave him alone?
Once Gavin got his drink and took a sip then he did turn to Connor. “Right. So I should warn you, my family is kinda crazy. Not in the ’ I’ll actually eat your face ’ but I guess just chaotic. It’s the yearly get-together so it’s gonna be everyone. We’ll stay at my stepmom’s house.” So they were just going to ignore what happened. Not too unexpected.
“You'll… you’ll definitely recognize one of my brothers. He’s an ass, but we all love him, he’s also the oldest, that fucker. Anyway, you should know I have five siblings in all. I consider them all my siblings, but two are technically only half.” Gavin continued.
Connor didn’t want to interrupt him, so he just sipped at his drink as he listened, making notes in his head.
“I’m the oldest from birth parents, middle for all. My grandparents from all sides will be there, but my grandmother from my birth mom’s side is dead. I’m sure my cousins will show up. Also, people that I’m related to and have no idea who they are will be there as well. Big family, but bio mom definitely won’t be there.” Gavin rubbed at the scar on his nose. A nervous tic or something to do with his mom?
For some reason, he thought that Gavin’s family would be small. This did make it harder as they would have to fool quite a lot of people.
“So, the drive is three hours. I’ve got an actual car, but I can drive the whole way if you want. We’ll be staying there for three nights. We leave on the third of next month. Any questions?” That was definitely… a lot to take in. He already learned so much about Gavin from this.
“Boundaries? I know that most relationships involve physical affection, but the amount that’s shown to others varies.” He’d seen Markus and Simon kiss and hold hands. Other than that the two generally kept it private.
He’d also seen how unfazed North was with Tina on public displays of affection. He actually had a hand in getting those two together.
He had often talked to his fellow officers after the revolution and soon found out about Tina’s crush on North. He then mentioned it to Markus who suggested the two meet. The rest was history with those two.
Gavin clearing his throat brought him out of his thoughts. “Right. Ok, so if you tell anyone about this I will rip your throat out, you hear me? Also, no laughing,” Gavin asked, pointing a finger at Connor. Connor quickly nodded his head.
Gavin takes a deep breath before looking into his drink. If it wasn’t for his enhanced hearing he wouldn’t have been able to hear Gavin’s quiet voice.”I’m…cuddly. So, yeah,” Gavin says then clears his throat, looking back up at Connor. He has a cute flush across his cheeks and Connor can’t help the small smile.
“Fuck, yeah, anyways. So touching is fine. Probably kisses on the cheek too. If it comes to it we can kiss if you wa-uh, if you’re fine with it. They also have a pool, so we’ll probably go swimming. I’d say you can get away with not if you pulled the ‘ I’m an android ’ card…but yeah, no way is that gonna work there. So, sorry. If you don’t want to swim just tell them or come up with an excuse.” It seemed like Gavin was now rambling, so Connor reached out and gently touched the hand holding his drink.
“I have no problems with any of that. We will need a sufficient backstory. Also, any details about you I should already know.“ He had a few ideas already but wanted to wear what Gavin had to say.
He watched as Gavin flushed again, staring at their hands. Connor quickly snatched his hand back, a blush forming on his own face. Gavin blinks a few times before shaking his head. “Right… ok, so again don’t tell anyone. I’m trans. Female to male. I’ve had top surgery, so you’ll see my scars if we go swimming. My grandmother on my stepmom’s is homophobic so I have to deal with that. She'll… she’ll call me Gabrielle.” He spits the name out like it was dirty, and he couldn’t blame him.
“I’m assuming I can’t punch her in her old granny face?” He jokes, tilting his head. Gavin’s eyes go wide then snorts.
“Nah, no punching grannies,” then he actually smiles. Full-on smiles at Connor and he feels his thirium pump stutter for a second.

“So, you probably already know, but I got two cats. Sig and Fea. Both sweet, but Fea is a little shit. I’ll tell you more about them in the car.” He pulls his phone out and shows a picture of two cats.
One is a ragdoll, who he assumes is Sig, the other is a dilute calico and she must be Fea. They both are incredibly adorable. “They are beautiful, I’m excited to learn more about them.”
It was no secret that he loves animals of all types. He had pictures of Sumo on his desk along with selfies of himself and other animals that he met. Hank often called him a Disney princess because animals would walk right up to him.
Gavin put his phone back in his pocket with a nod. “Right, so my brother, the oldest, already knows a bit about you. He… I, you know what, you’ll know why when you see him. Also, I may have ranted about you to him.”
Connor hoped that the rant was about him having feelings for Connor, but he highly doubted that.
“Backstory. So obviously we got together after the revolution. Maybe I apologized-which I am sorry for trying to kill you- and then we made up. By kissing, a lot.” They both flush at that.
“Alright, have we moved in together?” Currently, Connor was staying at Hank’s house. He could technically just stay at the DPD because they had everything he needed, but he preferred to have a home.
“Hell no. I would have told the family if that happened. So we are together, but not living together. Wait, fuck I didn’t even ask what your sexuality is. That’s even more of a dick move than usual for me.” Gavin shook his head at himself.
“I am bi and I believe I am on the asexual spectrum. I’m assuming you are gay.” If Gavin was straight this would get awkward very fast.
He knew he was on the ace spectrum but didn’t know where. He knew androids were capable of feeling sexual attraction and part of him wondered if he was just broken or it was because of his coding. He found people attractive to look at but never felt sexual attention to someone. He has wanted to have sex before, but never got the chance.
Gavin snorted and rolled his eyes, “Hell yeah I’m gay. Also, cool. If you don’t like or want sex we can use that as shitty as it sounds.”
Connor never really thought about sex before, and he didn’t have genitalia either. He knew that he could be stimulated down there, but never tried it. He never felt the urge to, though he was curious. “I’m not opposed to sex, but I’ve never had it either. I am lacking in that area.”
He feels himself heat up slightly in embarrassment when Gavin’s eyes trail down to his crotch.
Connor shifted in his seat as Gavin continued to stare. He cleared his throat and Gavin jumped. “Huh. Tina owes me ten bucks. But that’s fine. Is that a you thing or?” He trails off, eyes back to Connor’s face.
“I’m unsure. I know most models are anatomically correct, but Cyberlife decided for me to not have one. I’m sure I could get an upgrade if I want to.” That would definitely be an odd upgrade to request though, but again, he didn’t feel the need to.
“Huh,” Gavin said once again. “Do you feel anything down there? Like, have you… ever tried buffin’ the muffin?” Gavin cringed at his own wording.
“I have not, but as far as I know I can be stimulated.” He honestly didn’t know why Gavin would need to know this, but he didn’t really have a problem telling him.
Gavin nodded again and chugged the rest of his drink. The bartender came over and when Gavin nodded poured another.
They sat together and they both drank from their cups, not saying much. It was nice to be able to just sit with someone and enjoy being out and about.
They do sometimes make small talk, commenting on random things. Gavin and Connor both like to people-watch and come up with backstories for people. They’d also come up with random dialog for them but they could both read lips, Connor better than Gavin.
It’s a few hours later when Gavin stands and stretches, paying for his drink. He also pays for Connor’s, even with his protests. “Don’t mind, after all, you’re the one doing me the favor.”
They part ways with a slightly awkward pat on the shoulder. Connor gives Gavin a small wave and smile as he drives off.
Connor has to wait for a cab, but thankfully it doesn’t take too long. He gets home and shushes Sumo as Hank is asleep. Connor quietly walks to his own bedroom and lets Sumo in, closing the door behind them.
He doesn’t sleep that night, he doesn’t have to. Instead, he stays up thinking about Gavin.

Summary: Gavin Reed didn’t have a soulmate. He had come to terms with that by sleeping his way through half of the male population of Detroit. He would have even been happy with a female soulmate at this point, but no. Even fucking Hank Anderson had one, though she was dead now.
So he didn’t give a shit. He didn’t have a mark and he never would. If he did…well he wouldn’t want them anyway. You got your mark when your soulmate is born, and no way in hell was he ever going to date someone 36 years younger than him.
So when he woke up at three am on August 14th with burning pain on his arm, he tried to ignore it. He knew what that burning pain meant, but of course, he couldn’t ignore it.
