    Summary

    “Guess I’m not really looking for friends right now.”

    Connor looks at the bottle in Hank’s hand, and the time of day, and the fact that this was his first stop after work on a route that veritably leads back to his home on Michigan Drive, and he wants to somehow connect those things to the notion that Hank maybe seems like someone who could use a friend right now, and maybe Connor could use a friend in this new world too, but there’s no way to articulate any of that without revealing too much about himself or too much about what he knows of Hank. So he remains stuck on the other side of that wall and says, “Okay.”

    “Hey… another time, maybe.”

    It’s the kind of hollow sentiment people offer one another when there’s nothing left to say. Still, Connor echoes it. “Another time.”

    [Alternatively: With access to the quantum calculator, Amanda leads Connor to the DPD months before his time. And Hank, well... Hank keeps running into this weird kid who works for Cyberlife...]
