Summary
Connor cocks his head a little as he explains, “‘Hurt’ isn’t the right word. ‘Damaged’ is more accurate. But my self-repair protocol will take care of it and within 72 hours it’ll be as if nothing happened.”
Hank looks at him with his brow creased in concern, “You seriously didn’t feel it at all?”
Connor takes his hand back from where Hank examines it, “I felt something, but not pain. Not like you conceive of it.”

Hank Anderson's life is a never-ending race trying to escape pain. On the other hand, Connor can't feel any pain at all. In many ways, it makes their life together easy but, at the same time, deeply private. When a trip to Vermont in the fall of 2039 lays their differences bare, both Hank and Connor are given a chance to change things, to let each other into their own shifting worlds of hurt and of happiness. But no one promised them that it'd be easy.
