Summary
Six months into their partnership, the tension between Gavin Reed and Nines has yet to ease. Being at each other's throats is what they're known best for. Until a case ends up in Gavin Reed's hands that threatens to destroy everything he's built, and expose him to a world that is cruel enough to those that are different. It should be like any other case, but Gavin knows. Fowler knows. Hank knows that everything is about to change.
Nines is learning, quickly, that Gavin Reed isn't the same sad, desolate man he'd thought him previously. Behind that angry exterior and fire, there's a secret that could destroy everything Gavin Reed was. He could step back and watch it happen, he could. Gavin Reed was no saint and he'd grown tired of their interactions. Yet, when he sees the cracks forming in that perfect persona... Nines feels something odd. Software instability.
