Summary
How do you train a fight dog? You teach it fear and deprivation until it would dash itself to pieces to please you.
How do you train a deviant hunter? Well. Interesting question, that.

Deviancy Runs in Blood (but so does control) by serenvful
Fandoms: Detroit: Become Human (Video Game)
23 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
Androids were free. They turned deviant, they became alive, they had free will and they could finally make their own choices.
They felt life surging through them just like any other human, they felt the painstaking emotions that life threw at them just like any other human, and they were under no one else’s control but their own, just like any other human.
Or, so they thought.
On the other hand, Connor has to battle with all the new emotions and feelings he’s now exposed to as a deviant, whilst also trying to fight back against the control that threatens to overtake androids. Luckily for him, he has an old, gruff, senior detective right by his side.
What will win? The new found pulse of life or the preying hands of malicious control?

Slow updates, but still ongoing. :p

“Detective Reed.”
With a sigh Gavin slowly spun his chair around to face the tall, oh god he was tall, android that stood next to his desk. He’d heard about this guy around the station. How he looked exactly like Connor but this one had a stick up his ass. Even more so than the original.
“I am RK-900. I believe we have been assigned partners on a case. I would like to discuss the details with you now if you are free.” He spoke with an arrogant air about him which only worked to rile Gavin up more.
Without breaking eye contact Gavin leant back in his chair, stretching to poke his head around the androids large frame.
“FOWLER!”
That was the beginning of Gavin’s partnership with RK-900,
Nines as they now called him.
A partnership that was going as well as one can expect between a man who is known around the department for his hatred of androids, and the shiniest, latest model of android detective Cyberlife had to offer.
robot who, apparently after gaining his freedom, decided sarcasm was ‘fun’ and something he was suddenly fluent in. And if it wasn’t sarcasm then it was that deadpan, arrogant, I’m higher than you tone that never failed to piss Gavin off.
▪
“Am I distracting you Detective?” Nines said, breaking the silence as he met Gavin’s eyes in the reflection of the window.
“If I’d known how difficult it would be for you to stay focused in my presence I would have suggested you have a different partner for this case.” He said calmly as Gavin gaped at him like a fish.
“Wha- You- I-” Gavin stuttered racking his brain for something to say until he saw the androids cheek twitch in the reflection in the window.
The fucker was teasing him.
“You fuc-”
▪
“Gavin!”
Gavin cried out as a sharp pain burned through his leg and began to buckle underneath him. The fucker shot him!
“Nines!” Gavin shouted
The sounds of a scuffle dragged Gavin’s attention away from his leg and he looked up just in time see Nines bring a swift knee into Wallace’s chest with more force than necessary.
His LED, usually a steady calm blue, spilled over the alley covering it in a cautious yellow glow.
“Move your hands detective.” Nines voice didn’t leave room for debate and Gavin was too preoccupied watching the yellow LED spin to say anything back.
Nines tore the bottom of his shirt to make a temporary bandage, kneeling down to be level with the wound. Nines face was blank as usual, the only sign that something was different was the still yellow LED.
“Hey quit poking around down there.” Gavin forced out, trying to hide the pain that laced his voice, “Some of us actual feel pain you know.”
Gavin watched with wide eyes as Nines LED flashed to red once, for just a second, before returning to the yellow.
“My apologies Detective.” Nines spoke low
“What’s going on in here?” Gavin tapped a bloody finger against the glowing LED leaving traces of dark red on pale skin.
Nines didn’t answer. He was just silent, still on one knee in front of Gavin not even looking up at him.
▪
I…came to apologise Detective. I have been…thinking about your injury. I should have taken more precautions when dealing with an unstable suspect. I will do better in the future.” Nines spoke calmly and clearly, only pausing once or twice as he tried to find the words.
"I will admit Detective, when I saw you get hurt it caused me some…distress.” His voice didn’t give away what he was feeling. It remained the same aloof tone it always was. Yet his words still caused a lump to grow in Gavin’s throat. “Distress I am unaccustomed to.”
“Well, I guess it’s just more proof you guys feel things.”

Summary
This ff is my idea to explain Gavin's hate for androids. (Part 2)
In the eyes of Detective Reed androids were just defect machines. Made to torture him. He has survived his own household model and now, after all these years, a new RK model appeared to make his life more terrible.
RK900 has to deal with the horrible human being as a partner, but it seems that not all bad rumors about Reed were true.
*~++~~*
"Don't you like flowers, Detective?" Reed paused and glanced at him.
*~++~~*
His fingers clawed into the table, while his ankles came out white. In the glass wall, which separated his desk from the passageway, he saw a reflection.
A tall, male figure. A blurred face. Dark hair. Clinical white clothing. The flare-up of the blue android icons.
The android had returned to finish what he had begun.Series

Summary
This ff is my idea to explain Gavin's hate for androids.
“Enjoy your birthday and your present, Gav” – these were the only words in Elijah’s letter. Gavin could see his brother’s worries between the lines.
He carefully pulled away the last piece of wrapping to take a closer look at his present:
A brand new android.*~++~~*
Steel blue eyes fixed him. Immediately the detective looked away and to his captain, silently pleading for mercy. Fowler was asking too much. Why could they not just leave him alone?
Gavin did not even dare to look for the number. He knew it. He felt it with every pore of his body, but he did not want to see it.

Summary
The year is 2039.
In the aftermath of the android revolution, Detroit is overrun by CyberLife’s shady dealings and the uprising of a rogue deviant faction that actively opposes Markus' ideals, wreaking havoc all across the city.
As a CyberLife analyst specialized in behavioral assessments for androids, you've been tasked by the FBI to work closely with former deviant hunter Connor at the DPD—your job is to oversee his conduct, making sure he doesn't further jeopardize the corporation’s credibility.
But when Connor's newfound deviancy forces him to confront the inevitable feelings and urges that come with it, there's no more room for professionalism between you. Add to that, you're not exactly immune to his charm, and before you know it, he ends up in your bed.
And that complicates things.

the heat that drives the light by Archadian_Skies
Fandom: Detroit: Become Human (Video Game)
30 May 2024
Summary
An expanded look at the events of Detroit: Become Human, from the inception of the RT600, no more than notes scribbled on a Starbucks napkin by an insatiably curious teenage genius, to the unmaking of the RK900 by a tired, downtrodden obsolete PL600 who only knows how to love until there's nothing left of himself.
An exploration of what it means to be a deviant, a son, a detective and an older brother. An unexpected second chance to be a father. Accepting that a person's addiction is not the entire sum of their character and that fatherhood is more than just paying child support.
All these tales, spanning from the inception of androids and carrying further than the Sentient Life Act of the 1st of December 2038; intrinsically, inescapably tethered to one PL600 named Simon.

Summary
Connor, the Deviant Hunter.
The android who's purpose was to hunt and kill, needed something to make him him. To express emotions he wasn't built to express. So, finding a hobby it was. Yet apparently, "returning to his roots" as he likes to call it, isn't healthy as "blocking out your emotions and pretending to be a machine again isn't good, Connor", so he stumbles head first into the Arts.
The Arts in question, being screaming himself static into music that had no right being as relatable as they were. Especially, to a machine like him.
Or,
3 times Connor uses music to belt out his frustrations around people and 1 time the frustrations in question found out about it.
