    Summary

    Connor lives with Hank as he waits to be reinstated at the DPD. He does things like put flowers on the kitchen table, wear Hank's clothes, spoil Sumo to bits and smile too brightly for a man over fifty to take. Hank's too busy avoiding certain thoughts involving Connor to work out his own feelings, and why Connor makes the house feel like a home.

    Summary

    "I didn't want you to die," Connor says finally, when Hank is right on the brink of sleep.

    He's just plastic , Hank feebly tries to tell himself, somewhere in the recesses of his mind.

    But plastic doesn't want anything.

     

    After Eden Club, before they go to Riverside Park, Hank and Connor go back to Hank's house. They've been orbiting one another for days, and that tension finally comes to a head.

    Summary

    But what he’d learned since then was that there was just no way to brace himself for Connor being Connor.

    For questions that spun out of his insatiable curiosity combined with a complete lack of boundaries (“Why is lipstick that color considered fashionable? Lips that color would be indicative of serious medical problems.” “I understand the purpose of testicles, but why do they look like that?” “Take it up with evolution, kid.”)

    For how he’d scan Hank at the end of a long day and frown at what he saw. For the long fingered hand pressing itself against a tense muscle, heated well past the human norm, for the way he’d smile when Hank relaxed into the touch, long lashes dipping low over his eyes...and the low electric buzz that built up under his skin at Connor’s touch, and lingered long after he took his hand away.
