Good morning, Lieutenant - (Vol. 1) The Defective Deviant by TNKT
Fandoms: Detroit: Become Human (Video Game)
29 Dec 2020
Tags
Summary
The free androids of Detroit start building their brand-new future, but peace is only relative in the troubled times that follow a revolution. One of the major figureheads of the revolution and finally a deviant, Connor now has to learn how to handle free will. The AI that both guided and punished him is gone, but at a price, and he struggles with his newfound freedom when guilt and fear are the crumbling foundations of his new life.
They say they want him there with them, but Connor can't understand why. He's afraid of himself and what he's capable of, afraid that maybe these feelings don't have their place within him.
Despite all the doubts he may have, Connor finds that he desperately wants to live, because whenever he feels himself slipping and falling, they're here to catch him.
Please heed the tags. Look after yourself!

Summary
The cool Detroit winter breeze. The obnoxious light from the club’s sign. Loud music. Big brown eyes that take on all the light’s colors and make them their own. A soft smile, a breathy laugh. Hands tucked into the pockets of a long coat. Boots strolling down the sidewalk, crunching in the thin layer of snow. Three shots of vodka apiece. Soft hands with long, delicate fingers.
These are the things that Markus can remember from that night. Healing, like incense. Strengthening, like sunlight.
Markus could paint it, if he could just relearn how.

Summary
Nearly a year after the Deviant Demonstration, Markus, deviant leader turned android ambassador, continues to push for android rights while (unsuccessfully) attempting to balance his social and personal life. Unfortunately, attacks targeting androids and their sympathizers are leaving everyone on edge.
Meanwhile, Connor remains fearful of the return of the Amanda AI that nearly drove him to kill Markus; the repercussions of which continue to make him doubt his deviancy. To distract from his fears, he loses himself in the newest case sweeping the DPD: a disturbing pattern of suddenly homicidal androids.
After Markus is targeted by a mysterious assailant, Conner finds himself unwillingly assigned as the head of the ambassador's security detail.
Only this mission is different.
He didn't expect to find Markus so...distracting.As the investigation progresses, and new and old threats arise, deviant hunter and leader find their paths becoming as tangled as the wires inside of them. At the end of the day, their worst enemies may be closer than they think.

Summary
"North and Josh and Simon were trying to protect him from Connor, Markus was trying to protect Connor from them and CyberLife, and Connor was trying to protect him from everyone else."
---
The Revolution is far from over, Markus knows. There are so many changes that will have to come; socially, politically, legally. What he didn't realize is that spending so much time with Connor would make some of these changes much more...personal.
Connor is lost, searching for a new mission and Markus can help. But he's beginning to think that it might not be as straightforward as all that, now.
(He might only have started feeling real emotions just last week, but all this is normal, right??)

Summary
“Loneliness constricts the heart. Loneliness cripples the body and the mind and the soul. Loneliness is unconscious and numb. Loneliness is endless tears for change – any change that will tell you that you are alive. Because loneliness is dying at every moment; loneliness is death.” -Kovie Biakolo
Connor, once becoming deviant, is lost and doesn't know who he is anymore. The only way he knows how to cope is by reminding himself of who he is. Luckily, Markus is there to help him along with Hank, Connor's partner at work. Little do the three know, something even bigger is brewing in the background, something that will affect the lives of everyone in Detroit.

Summary
It's been a few months since the android revolution and androids and humans alike are settling into a new normal as negotiations for rights continue.
Androids- specifically those from Jericho, including Markus, have taken over Cyberlife, which has come to be known by android kind as "New Cyberlife". In the ensuing takeover, many new androids were freed, including a brand new RK900 model- the first and only of his kind.
Built for detective work, 900 lands a job at the Detroit Police Department- as Detective Gavin Reed's new partner.
Notorious for his vicious competitive spirit and hatred of androids, Reed is hardly a good fit for an android new to the force- but that's what they said about Hank.Part 1 of the Polyandroid Series

Finally escaping the slavery mill, Ambra finds what she has been seeking: a chance to help her friends. Although serving another master has to be the price, it is a fair trade for joining the Assassins Brotherhood.
Meanwhile, Altaïr returns from Jerusalem to find that Al-Mu'alim has given him a gift in form of a task. For once in his twenty-years of life, his balance has been disturbed.

Syzygy In Motion by LikeWaterisWet for Fantismal
Fandoms: Detroit: Become Human (Video Game)
23 Sep 2019
Tags
Summary
Syzygy-noun: a conjunction or opposition, especially of the moon with the sun // a pair of connected or corresponding things.
No one thought that it was possible for androids to have soulmates, after all they weren’t alive, were they? In a world where soulmates share their pain Markus experiences several world shattering events. In this AU Deviants are able to feel pain to a certain degree.
Written as a 5+3, with maybe an extra chapter of fluff at the end if people like how it goes.

Summary
(AKA: Six Times Connor and Markus did not have Sex (and the first time they did!))
Heavy spoilers for Sacrificial Lamb. I highly recommend you read that first.
Connor is a free android now, and Markus is still trying to change the world. Finding time for their growing relationship is hard. It's made even harder by the entire truckload of trauma Connor is carrying with him from his time spent at CyberLife. Markus doesn't care. He loves Connor as he is, and is willing to take as much time as they need to help him heal.

Summary
In the aftermath of Markus' peaceful revolution, CyberLife does not want to concede everything to the androids. Connor is willing to be the price they pay for his people's freedom. Hank thinks this is a stupid idea, and Markus agrees with him (though he uses nicer words). Connor, however, has recently realized he has a mind of his own, and he's determined to use it to protect the people he loves.
Hank was right.
He always is.

Summary
Amanda flicks her hand and he stops, mouth clicking shut. Her eyes are scornful. “You will return to CyberLife.”
Connor’s heart drops. She’s right to be sending him. He’s malfunctioning in some way. There’s something wrong with him. Still, he can’t help asking her, “For what purpose?”
Maybe he has it wrong. Maybe-
Her eyes flick over him like a man judging the worth of a disobedient dog and her lips curl like she’s bitten into a rotten lemon. “For deactivation and disassembly, of course."
Based on the idea of Connor going deviant sooner and joining Jericho as part of the squad.

Summary
“I’m the most advanced android that CyberLife has ever created. I don’t understand. How was I not even aware that a human was there?” Connor seemed genuinely distressed, and Hank felt that discomfort once again, still not entirely familiar with the best way to reassure a robot going through an emotional crisis. “How did my scans fail to retrieve any relevant information on her in my databases? When I saw her, I had no idea what to say or what to think. Could the deviancy really be affecting my software this much in the short-term?”
“Hey, you guys fought to be equal. It’s only fair that you get to be as miserable as the rest of us when it comes to figuring out why we become idiots the second we see a pretty girl.”
When Hank and Connor are assigned bodyguard work, Connor's life becomes exponentially more complicated. As though adjusting to life post-deviancy wasn't enough, his systems were starting to glitch whenever he came into contact with the human he was supposed to be protecting. It was as though her mere presence triggered his databases to become an information deadzone, leaving him vulnerable. Hank thinks that vulnerability is just part of the "becoming human" experience, but is that really all it is?

Summary
His mission is simple. Detain the subject. Eliminate the loose ends. As his interactions with his only lead intensifies, Connor realizes he doesn't have much confidence in the former. The latter - even less. Connor/OC. AU.
***
As reports of deviancy becomes short on the rise, Connor is tasked to discover the whereabouts of Abel Gabor, a former Cyberlife employee who could be conspiring against the very company that once found him pivotal to its success. And Connor’s only lead begins with the man’s niece. Little does he know that she’s much less cooperative than he initially thought.
AU. Couple months prior to the events of the Detroit: Become Human.

Summary
Set post-Pacifist ending; the city of Detroit has been evacuated of all human life and Jericho and the androids rebuild. A year later, it's time to test the waters of the world once more. What better way to do that than to invite a human reporter into the city to tell their story?
Connor is tasked to be her guide. Predictably, things do not go according to plan.
Along the way he discovers that no story is as important as the story we tell ourselves - and each other.
