Summary
Gavin Reed, a mess of a human being, just wants to be left to his self destructive tendencies. RK900, an android designed by the most brilliant minds in the world to be the perfect machine, is desperate to grasp the full range of emotional freedom now afforded to him. The two will need to find an equilibrium before their incompatible personalities—and an eccentric serial killer with a dangerous piece of tech—swallow them whole.

Summary
Mouth dry, heart pounding, Gavin’s hands found Connor’s waist on instinct. He didn’t really need to act for that to come through. “I thought… I thought you didn’t like me,” he said. This really didn’t feel like just an op anymore. The music was picking back up again, becoming louder, faster. Connor began to move along to it. Just another protocol he’d downloaded to blend.
“I never said that,” Connor whispered, his lips to his ear. “And besides. You apologized to me, didn’t you?”

Summary
Nines just tilts his head the slightest bit, a provocation: Well?
Gavin is incandescent with fury. “You know what?” he snaps. “Fine.”
He doesn’t need hindsight to conclude the obvious; he knows full well in the moment that this is where he lets things spiral out of control. When he sets his jaw and yanks his tee up over his head, left in his undershirt like he’s about to start a fight, it’s crystal-clear to him that he’s stepping past a point of no return. But—
—there is no but. What threadbare excuse does he have? He made me do it, Your Honor. I was so irritated that I had no choice but to take my clothes off. Gavin leaves his desk and throws himself onto the nest of pillows at the head of his bed, zooms in with the webcam until the focus returns to the lens, and parts his knees.

Summary
Slowly, like the trickling warmth of the tide coming in, the flush rises in Gavin's cheeks. He doesn't answer, just stomps away as belligerently as he can with two dozen eggs nestled in his apron, while Tina and Chris exchange their animated chatter. Spellbound still, Nines follows Gavin with his eyes until he stomps into the staff entrance and disappears from sight.
Two different things, what Nines is meant to do and what he has come here for.
I came here for you, he thinks.

Summary
“No, I mean all the other times.” Kaoru looks up at him, the gleam in his eyes intense. “Always. Not just with me but the kids too. You always have something ready. Why?”
“I like cooking. I think I’m pretty good with words, but sometimes a dish made with care says more than words ever could.”
Food is Kojiro's love language, and over ten years of their life, he has a lot to say to Kaoru.

Summary
After the android uprising, Connor becomes a permanent fixture in the DPD. That’s fine. Gavin can accept that. The dipshit’s more human than he used to be, and a decent detective to boot. Gavin can deal with him being around.
What Gavin cannot deal with is Connor’s replica; prissy, cold-eyed, and with a mouth that Gavin doesn’t know whether to punch or take between his teeth. The RK900 model has been assigned as his partner for the foreseeable future.

Summary
"No," Diana murmured, "we fight to protect the men, women and children who are suffering uselessly under the thumbs of infantile dictators. Those men are not leaders—they are whining children, bullies to those who hold less power than them."
If Steve were awake, Bucky knew damn well he'd have hearts in his eyes.
He wasn't the only one who seemed to be having the same series of thoughts as Monty breathed: "My god, there are two of them."
[Alternatively known as "The Frisbee Friends" for Diana and Steve set to be future shield-bros. Ranges from 1944 to 2011.]

Summary
Hot damn, is his first thought.
Threat assessment follows close on its heels because Bucky’s a goddamn professional.
Military, definitely. Male, built like a goddamn mountain. Bucky stares helplessly because shoulders that broad should be illegal. It’s the face that really fucks him up though. Hair as silver as the star on his chest, swept back from a face that’s all hard angles and deep lines. There’s a beard too, covering a jaw that looks strong enough to sit on, and its white is peppered with bits of dark blond, which should look ridiculous but doesn’t.
“You seem to know my name,” Bucky says, plastering on a charming smile. “Only polite to return the favor.”
“If you’re banking on politeness, you might be in the wrong business, son.”
Jesus, Mary, and motherfucking Joseph. This is how wet dreams and porn clips should start, not a goddamn interrogation.

S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Bucky Barnes is captured on a mission and meets Commander Steve Rogers, the erstwhile Captain America.Series

Hardison starts a live-stream for Dragon Age to show off his new mods. And he kicks ass. But his viewers are actually a bit more concerned about the angry guy in the background of his videos, and the blond chick who keeps peering through his windows.

Premium Colombian Roast by orphan_account for heartbroken_girl, pseudoanalytics
Fandoms: Detroit: Become Human (Video Game)

Tags
Summary
RK pitches his voice louder, just enough to start getting stares: “Where do you get your premium Colombian roast, detective Reed?”
Gavin’s whole body seizes, hands flailing in an aborted attempt to slap themselves over RK’s mouth. “Shut up - shut your fucking mouth!” He hisses, furious and embarrassed.
*
Gavin Reed is a vegan gym rat and a coffee snob - somehow, RK900 is into that.

Hank raises a brow. “You getting jealous, or something?”

Connor has baggage, too.

Summary
Rufus Shinra grows up, and learns to live in a world of his own making.
I don't claim this to be anything groundbreaking, but it's what I wrote.
Many of the events are adapted from Before Crisis, but that plot is not followed precisely. There is more fidelity to the events of The Original Game and to Advent Children, in terms of plot but maybe not in terms of dialogue.
