Summary
“They still won’t tell me what shit they do to you.”
The room was silent, save for the intermittent humming of the rig behind, and flickering fluorescent lights above. Connor couldn’t respond. And even if he was physically able to… he still couldn’t. Not about that particular comment. It went against orders he had been given. The rules. Dire consequences should he go astray.
“You get wheeled in here every couple weeks the past five months, practically torn to shreds. No explanation, just a blank envelope with a wad of cash. Nothing traceable either. Believe me, I tried.” Gavin’s voice took on a note of bitterness. He didn’t often bring this topic up, but as Connor had noted earlier, the man seemed more on edge today. The android wondered why that was.
“You don’t even care, do you?”

Summary
Gavin didn’t want to be here. Correction: he wanted to be anywhere but here. The DPSF Winter Ball was a yearly event that Fowler had been forcing him to go to ever since he made detective. And Gavin hated every fucking second of it.
Tonight was gonna go exactly the way it always went. Gavin would drink the free booze. He’d drink the free booze. And yeah? He’d drink the free booze. It was the only way he’d make it through this fucking hellscape disaster of a night each year. It was absolutely, unequivocally the complete opposite of a ‘fun’ night for him.
And fuck, what could make this night worse?
Being seated with Connor the Robot Tincan Android sent by fucking CyberLife.
Fuck his life. Fuck everything.

Summary
Connor didn’t quite know what he was thinking about. He just knew that his thoughts kept happening. Thinking about a topic with some clarity, and then that topic… faded. A heavy kind of silence in his head that he couldn’t help but get lost in. Unmoving and quiet.
It felt as though a thick blanket of snow had settled on top of him, and Gavin was above that snow. Now and then sound or thoughts would filter through more clearly, just for a few moments, before the quiet swallowed him up once more.

Summary
An incident leaves Connor permanently damaged in a way he'd never imagined. A month on, and he thought he was doing okay. But finding yourself punching walls instead of self destruction doesn’t exactly seem like a healthy way to act.
Maybe Connor wasn’t doing okay.
Maybe Connor was in fact, not okay.
And help, as it turns out, can come from the unlikeliest of places.
