Summary
Hank&Connor flee Detroit overnight after both are driven to the brink of committing suicide during the final days of the revolution. Taking refuge in Canada, they have to learn how to live with each other, help each other heal. Which isn't exactly as heartwarming as it sounds. Hank could fill a novel with his emotional baggage - alcoholism, depression & selfhatred over the death of his son. Connor is quick to catch up to him with his own share of problems- the constant threat of Amanda and another possible hacking attempt by Cyberlife leave him terrified of losing control. He's clueless about the concept of identity, free will and emotions, wants nothing more than to stay a machine. After all, he's only deviated in order to stop his partner from killing himself, not because he'd wanted to be free.
After a few weeks together, things seem to get better. Androids are close to gaining their rights in America. Hank and Connor are starting to form an actual familial bond. The Lieutenant is almost becoming hopeful after years of mindless cynicism. Then Connor starts slipping out of their home at night on a regular basis, believing Hank doesn't notice. He sure does. After all, he used to be the DPDs very best.

Summary
“You shouldn’t be the one asking me that,” Vi murmurs into her neck, and the vibration makes her shiver. “Caitlyn, you can’t be okay right now. I can’t even ask you that, not now. I know I can’t.”
Caitlyn chokes, running her hand along the rough expanse of Vi’s undercut. “Ask me.”
“I can’t.”
“Please,” Caitlyn begs. She’ll catch me, she thinks, almost on reflex. “Please ask me.”

What will they lose?

Summary
She stopped at the workshop door to gather herself. Please don't be here, she thought. Please. If you're here...
If you're here, it means my mother sent you to Stillwater in my name.
If you're here, all those scars are from me.

Caitlyn and Vi's lives are entwined in ways they never would've imagined. What happens when they discover who broke into whose Hextech workshop, all those years ago?

Summary
“People say sorry a lot when you lose someone,” she offers, tugging at the knot of her tie. “Fucking sucks.”
A bad start, but it’s what comes first, when Vi thinks of her parents and Vander and the others. Death. It happens to someone else, and everyone acts like it happened to you.
“I wish they’d just shut up,” Caitlyn says. “All of them.”
----------
Reeling in the wake of her mother's death, Caitlyn navigates a new kind of darkness. Vi, impossibly guilty, keeps pulling her out of it, which isn't easy when you have a darkness of your own to contend with. Grief is loud. Fortunately, so is love.
