#detroit evolution spoilers
Part 2 has arrived! (to see part 1 click here) Ada won’t have to be on the run anymore!
Didn’t think that it’ll be seen so I’d like to renew my thanks to Octopunk Media’s whole team! You did a wonderful job full of awesome representation! It gives me hope as a future prop/set maker who wants to help spread inclusiveness. To see that it is possible for a reasonnably small team to tell such stories with that impact is uplifting! Thanks again and I can’t wait to follow your future projects :)

After discovering Octopunk Media’s awesome movie Detroit Evolution, I wanted to draw something as a tribute to the all (really talented) team!
But, of course, nothing went the way it was supposed to so here’s a 4 pages lil’ story of what could happen after the film. The two last pages will come up in about a week or two! It’s the first time I do such a thing so do not hesitate to leave some feedback, it’ll be welcome and appreciated!
(Lazzo’s shoes design has been inspired my an other artist on here but I can’t find their name, I’d like to credit them!)

Can I be hopeful and tell myself that Detroit Evolution gave me the ace Nines I’ve always wanted?
Like from the way he talks about falling in love with someone during the scene in the car and the ending scene where he expresses his disappointment at not being “complete” or being able to give Gavin what he thinks he needs. It struck a chord with me. Reminded me of myself.
Even if that’s not the case, and it’s not symbolic but purely face value android stuff, I still love it. I love that Gavin reassures Nines that it’s ok, and that he loves him for him.
My heart.It’s 100% intentional my dear. I am glad you felt seen! I - the writer/director - am asexual, so it was written from that experience of self doubt and journey through the asexual discovery process.
I just wanna say- thank you. As a fellow ace- It was really refreshing to see an ace character that was ace- but not completely sex-repulsed. The sex-positive and sex-indifferent side of the ace community honestly gets so little representation that for years, despite knowing I was ace, I felt broken, even within my own community.
Nines didn’t seem grossed out or even completely disinterested in that aspect of the relationship, he knew he was lacking and he admitted to never feeling that way for someone, and that’s just- so damn relieving. I spent at least an hour just- being relieved that Nines was ace, but in a way that didn’t make me feel broken either. And Gavin’s reassurance was something so many people needed to hear, and proof that people don’t always need that in relationships is so- so nice.
Thank you so much for this- all of you. Sending all the virtual hugs!
