    Summary

    Astarion is near the docks when he feels Cazador's compulsion on him snap. He doesn't think twice. He just takes the next available ship out of Baldur's Gate. Its destination: The City of Splendors. Waterdeep.

    Gale takes back the glass, now empty, and then seems to fidget a little. “There is something I wanted to get your opinion on- but it can wait until you’ve recovered. You don’t look well at all- no offense meant, of course.”

    “None taken,” Astarion says sweetly. “Please go on. Tell me exactly what it is about my appearance that you find lacking.”

    Summary

    Waking up has never been this difficult in his life, Chris thinks distantly as he forces his eyes open, flinching against the bright lights. There’s a distant sound of a voice, and he can barely make out the words at first, even though it all gets clearer with every passing syllable. “Oh, Chris, you’re awake!” There’s a hand on his shoulder, gently stopping him as he struggles to sit up, and he doesn’t really have the energy to fight it so he complies.

    When he groans there’s immediately a worried face in front of him, and he squints a little as he attempts to recognize them. “Claire?” It comes out a guess, more than anything. The person in front of him is Claire, he’s sure of it, but she’s… so old.

    -
    Or the one wherein Chris forgets the past fifteen years of his life.

    Summary

    What catches Connor's attention about the dating profile first is that Hank used to work at the DPD - they only just missed each other, actually - but what keeps him on Hank’s page is the bio that reads “idk im 53 and too old and tired for cutesy shit. hit me up if youre tired too.”

    Connor is, indeed, very tired.

    ~~

    After the revolution, Connor is working as an android representative. He finds himself being consistently scrutinized by the public, and he wonders if finding some way to humanize himself might help.

    Pretending to date a human might help, and Hank seems like the perfect option.

    Summary

    Connor does wonder if Hank knows the night he killed him was also the first night he really felt alive, even if he did everything he could to hide it, to answer Hank’s questions the way he knew he should. He wonders if Hank knows that it wasn’t just the dying that hurt, but that Hank only did it because he was so sure Connor was just a machine. For all their differences, Connor knows Hank wouldn’t kill someone.

    He just didn’t think Connor was someone.

    ~~

    In November 2038, after they went to Eden Club, Hank shot Connor in Riverside Park. Connor has never forgiven him for it.

    But against the backdrop of their own regrets and an android murder case that's larger and more complicated than it first seems, Hank and Connor find each other again when Connor is assigned to the DPD by a government workplace placement program for androids.

    Summary

    In 2028, the Department of State approaches Elijah Kamski about developing a unique, dangerous android to meet their specific needs. It's not on any record book at CyberLife, and as far as anyone knows, after Kamski's death a few years later, the project falls out of development entirely.

    In 2033, Connor Stern joins the DPD as a detective. He works with Hank Anderson, and they orbit each other for years. They become friends, and then they fall in love. They decide their relationship is worth the risk to their jobs, and that they can hide it until Hank retires in 2039.

    But something is happening in Detroit. It builds slowly, but their world is about to change.

    Summary

    Connor nods at Hank’s drink anyway, almost empty, and says, “Can I get you another?”

    “Oh,” Hank says. “You don’t have to...”

    Connor blinks at him - he’s sort of intense, actually, Hank thinks, especially for someone with such good puppy dog eyes. “Were you going to get yourself another one?”

    “I mean...yeah, probably.”

    “Then let me,” Connor says, and Hank must be gaping at him in complete confusion, because Connor shrugs and leans in closer to him. “I think you’re hot,” he says, like they’re sharing a secret, “in case that wasn’t obvious.”

    ~~

    In 2036, while Hank is in Chicago on business, he meets Connor for the first time, and he can't stop thinking about him after. There's a magnetism between them that keeps pulling them back together, and it's easy to fall in love with him.

    But Connor has secrets, and Hank has a few of his own, too.

    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

    Black Ice, a dangerous new drug has spilled onto the streets of Detroit. More potent than Red Ice, it affects androids, too. All clues point to the main base of operations being within an exclusive, couples-only hotel. With no warrant forthcoming, it’s time to get serious and infiltrate.

    Hank and Connor will need to pose as newlyweds, Connor exchanging the ring of his LED for a wedding ring. This means sharing a bed, dancing cheek-to-cheek, and public displays of affection to keep up the charade.

    The trouble is knowing where the act stops and the real feelings begin.

    Summary

    How does someone programmed to serve learn to ask for what he wants? Connor is struggling, but thankfully Hank has become his semi-willing human tutor in the weeks following the revolution. Maybe tonight Connor can figure out how to tell Hank he wants more.

    Summary

    Connor and Sixty have been fighting over Hank since they first moved in with him after the revolution. Connor's approach has been more romantic, Sixty's more, uh ... provocative. But despite the androids' differences, Hank is sure he can help them find some common ground.

    Or at least, a common interest.

    Summary

    The second time they have sex, it's everything Hank expected. Soft, reverent, loving. Warm touches and long, slow explorations and murmurs of sweet words of devotion. Nothing he ever expected to have again, and everything Connor deserves.

    That was the second time.

    The first time started with Conner slamming his fist into a wall so hard the bricks near Hank's ear crack.

    Summary

    The picture attached is uncanny. In his uniform Connor looks different from the flirty little twink climbing all over Hank’s lap in a taxi ten years ago, and he’s certainly filled up a little, face a little less angular and more masculine now. Hank remembers those earnest brown eyes and those pink lips a little too well though. Even the fucking cowlick is still there.

    And then Hank’s stomach rolls over when his brain truly catches up with what he just read - DOB August 1990.

    University my ass, Hank thinks weakly

    Summary

    Hank is 53 years old. He's never had a soul mark, doesn't have a soul mate. And he's fine with that. He cheated the system once and it cost him everything he had. Never again.

    When August 2038 rolls around and the number '313 248 317 - 51' appears on his arm in perfect Cyberlife Sans font, exactly where a soul mark should be, Hank wants nothing to do with it.

    Summary

    Title taken from “Basket of Figs,” by Ellen Bass.

    .

    There’s—a certain stance, maybe, or the way light hits his captain just right when he stands on the rail of the Merry, all sharp curves of jawline and the gentle slope of his neck and bare shoulders. The contrast of his dark hair and tanned skin. The swell of his calf, too, Zoro finds distracting. The artful leanness of his captain.

    In those moments Zoro’s knees go weak. He nearly drops his swords, he’s so overcome with it.

    Beautiful, he thinks, and he’s got no clue if it’s him or his alpha thinking it. Beautiful. We'd be so good to you.

    .

    Zoro falls for his captain headfirst, convicted in body and soul and heart all at once. He aches.

    Summary

    Zoro’s hands are big, thick and knuckly and covered in calluses from his swords. He has a strong grip, too, and strong muscles because he trains them to be strong.

    None of it explains the way Luffy’s body lights up when Zoro clasps the back of his neck, like every nerve is alight and trained on the palm cupping the baby hairs at the back of his skull. His stomach knots over itself and he wants to eat everything in Sanji’s kitchen. Zoro’s skin is a little rough and sweaty from fighting and warm.

    Zoro is close, his forehead nearly butting Luffy’s and Luffy couldn’t move if he wanted to, trapped there by the closeness and the touch that makes him aware of Zoro’s skin against his in a way he’s never been before. Zoro’s eyes bore into his, digging deep into Luffy and dragging out—something, buried in the base of his spine. He feels like the earth is tilting, and freefall seems like it might be fun.

    Things you should do to achieve a dream:

    1. be kind (offer a dense looking surgeon you’ve met three and a half minutes ago to take him for a ride around the city)
    2. take risks (fix a mistake in the blueprints of Heimerdinger's TA, because he's not around to stop you)
    3. be persistent (drive the sleep deprived idiot home after he almost falls asleep on a sidewalk)

    Things you shouldn’t do to achieve a dream:

    1. helplessly fall for your lab partner
    2. follow the stupid rules

    Summary

    It’s been half a year now since his marriage to Mel fell apart and Jayce became a stay-at-home dad. A little less than that, since he offered Viktor the empty guest room, just to make juggling work and child-rearing overall easier.

    It’s a question of convenience, really. Jayce gets to take care of his daughter, but he also has someone to watch her when he needs to run errands, to play with her next door while Jayce is in a conference call with their sponsors.

    And if Mae gets a little confused about how many daddies she has… or if Jayce is in denial about what kind of partner he wants Viktor to be… Well. They’re going to figure it out eventually.
