    Summary

    When Rawlins arrived that morning, Connor felt the first pang of unease.

    The man was large, broad-shouldered, with the kind of weathered face that looked carved from stone. Deep-set eyes, a nose that had been broken at least twice, and the permanent shadow of stubble along his jaw. He wore his coat like armour, unbuttoned, revealing a holster strapped openly at his hip.

    He didn’t offer his hand. Didn’t greet Connor with so much as a nod. Instead, his eyes flicked once to Connor’s LED, and his mouth twisted. “So this is the machine I’ve heard about.”

    “Hello, my name is Connor,” Connor supplied. “I’ll be your partner until Lieutenant Anderson is cleared to return.”

    Rawlins grunted, brushing past him. “We’ll see.”

     
    Or, after Hank is placed on medical leave, Connor is reassigned to a new partner from a different precinct. Unfortunately, his new partner is more interested in using Connor as a tool than treating him like a living being.

    Summary

    When Connor first realizes he is experiencing panic attacks, the revelation is… troubling. Not least because he had yet to define that category of emotion in his code.

    After a new case crosses his and Hank's desks concerning a serial torturer of androids, it becomes increasingly difficult to pretend his programming can handle being exposed to so much misery.
