Summary
Eight months after a peaceful revolution, Detroit has finally settled into a new status quo, with androids discovering lives without servitude and humans adjusting to lives without their servants. It isn't entirely comfortable yet; there are still some kinks to work out, but the tension is gone. However, the situation comes to a head once more when a mysterious android emerges from the derelict suburbs of the city to perpetrate multiple terrorist attacks against humans and androids. The DPD have limited time to find out who the android is, who made it, and how to stop it. The answer likely lies inside an android found by the FBI outside a burning bunker, but its memory has been routinely deleted, and the only way to recover the memories is to find ways to trigger them.
Or, Hank adopts another android.

Summary
"Genius runs in the family, his brother used to joke, but Gavin always chalks it up to the fact that spending any amount of time with Elijah will always end up turning into an impromptu crash-course on all things android. After all these years, all these years listening to Elijah ramble on and on while drunk on whiteclaws, Gavin knew he was more well-versed on all things android than a regular cop was supposed to be.
What he doesn’t know, though, is if Elijah meant to embed his essence into every android, but there’s nothing Gavin knows better than his own brother. So when Gavin looks at an android, he doesn’t see their model. All he sees is Elijah staring back at him, his cool blue eyes staring right into Gavin’s soul, his image imprinted onto each and every droid.
And maybe that’s what unsettles him about the android out front. Pretty brown doe-eyes and curled hair with everything about Elijah that makes his skin crawl right underneath those synthetic freckles."
Or, Gavin contemplates life, death, God, loyalty, and whether or not this damn android is actually stalking him.

Summary
Connor knew he wasn’t particularly good at things. He failed Amanda, failed Markus…and now he was failing at deviancy as well. Perhaps he was better off being a machine. Even Hank was bound to become fed up of him at some point. He expected it, but he hadn’t anticipated the pain that would accompany it. He supposed he deserved it.
His voice became louder, harsher, colder with every word. The more he spoke the more disoriented he got, and the more lost in memories of Cole- crash, hospital, androids, death- he became. Androids. androids causing problems in his life. Always ruining anything good he could possibly have in his life. How could he have forgotten? Looking at Connor now, seeing the yellow-red light spinning on his temple, he didn’t know how he ever saw a person in someone so obviously…synthetic. Mechanical. Always sat with an unnaturally straight posture, speaking like an awkward fucking thesaurus, never understanding jokes, expression never changing except for an uncomfortable, wonky smile that didn’t suit his face at all.
————
A very self-indulgent fic following Connor navigate through his deviancy as he experiences family, friends, betrayal, hurt, and what it’s like to be alive.

Summary
Connor is different than any of the other patients. He knows them better now: knows that he's not the only one that's dangerous...
But he's the only one who is still in danger. He was supposed to get somewhere safe. He was supposed to be able to leave Detroit. He was not supposed to be trapped in this unit for the insane.
Maybe he belongs there, maybe he is insane, but he can't risk staying. Not when they know where he is. Not when they're coming for him.

Summary
After a fatal crash, Detective Gavin Reed wakes up in a body that isn’t his.
Rebuilt as an android by a brother he’d spent most of his life avoiding, Gavin is left with more questions than answers. He’s not dead, but he sure as hell isn’t the same—and figuring out what that means might be harder than dying in the first place.
Between a partner who won’t leave his side and a case that cuts deeper than expected, Gavin is forced to confront everything he thought he knew—about identity, loss, and what it means to still be here.

Summary
Po udanej pokojowej rewolucji androidów, Detroit wstępuję w świeży rozdział swojej historii, a dzięki staraniom Jerycha i ludzi dobrej woli, staje się pierwszym miastem uchwalającym prawa androidów.
Connor — niegdyś słynny łowca defektów, teraz pełnoprawny członek Jerycha i cenny towarzysz Markusa — stara się odnaleźć swoje miejsce w nowej rzeczywistości. Życie z Hankiem, praca ramię w ramię z przyjaciółmi o prawa androidów i pozornie trwający pokój nie są w stanie uciszyć męczących go wyrzutów sumienia spowodowanych jego przeszłością. Z pomocą Andersona i towarzyszy z Jerycha próbuje wymazać swoje dawne błędy i zacząć wszystko od początku, jednakże coś niewidocznego, lecz wyczuwalnego czai się tuż obok... A gdzieś głębiej, w samym sercu miasta, wciąż drzemie inne niebezpieczeństwo — to, które zakorzeniło się w Detroit na długo przed rewolucją.
Czy nowy początek, jaki nakreśliły miastu androidy, będzie w stanie to zmienić?

Summary
Reed let out a laugh. “So that was genuine, back there? You’re stuck doing everything I say?”

Summary
Fear is what makes one human; it’s what drives true, unthinking impulse. It’s unmuddied, perfect, pure. It’s something androids had never truly experienced until the widespread deviancy that swept the world, and even then, their fear was never pure holy terror.
Now, androids all throughout the city of Detroit are falling victim to fears they had not yet been able to realise. Their responses are unpredictable, driven by unseen threats; their reactions distinctly human. How can one track ghosts only seen by a trail of missing eyes? Detectives Reed and Nines are being tasked to overcome their differences and try.

Summary

Alongside him is Connor, the first deviant android detective. Previously designed to assist in investigations of his own species, Connor has a calm demeanour and an analytical mind. Yet, this doesn't make up for the journey of being deviant; his lack of emotional understanding often puts him at odds with Gavin.
The two, paired together to investigate the case, must find the ability to work together.
Will they be able to overcome the challenges thrown their way?This story contains explicit and heavy themes. Please read the tags and take care in reading if you continue.

Summary
Gavin Reed, proud owner of Reed's Coffee and winner of the World Barista Championship two years ago, hated matcha with all his being. So much so that he had a big poster in his café that read: FUCK MATCHA.

A tense encounter turned into a challenge, and the challenge turned into prank wars.

or,
Coffee Shop AU but make it ConVin and also a casefic. Hehe.

Summary
"You know, for a million-dollar android, you sure don't know how to read instructions. No androids are allowed in here," I tell him, jerking my head towards the sign on the door.
"Neither are dogs, Detective," he— it— reasons.

Now the only thing he can do to escape their partnership is to be as rude as possible to the son of a gun and hope he gives up soon.

Summary
Following the Android revolution, Gavin’s worldview has been practically turned upside down. Androids are recognized as ‘people’ now, and Fowler’s been on his ass about his attitude more than usual. Oh, and not to mention a serial killer is running rampant, stealing biocomponents and killing anyone who gets in his way.
And who does he have to work with to catch this son of a bitch? The android sent by fucking Cyberlife.
So yeah, you could say Gavin’s having a pretty shit week.

Summary
In the aftermath of a peaceful revolution, Detective Gavin Reed has to adjust when it comes to his work relations. The assholish version of Anderson's android gets assigned as his new partner. Not only that, but an assholish android who deems it necessary to not only question Gavin's professionalism but also invades his personal life. Ironically, the deviant may have a better grasp of living than Gavin Reed does.
What is there to say when you realize the machines you mistreated are no more a monster than you are?
------------------------------------
The RK900 thought this would be a simple task. Prove his invaluableness to the precinct, solve cases, and move up as quickly as possible. Annoying his partner was just a treat on top of an already perfect plan. But Gavin Reed may be the one mystery Nines can't solve. Especially when it turns out that the detective and the android may have more in common than he initially thought.
What do you do when your partner turns out to be something more than human or android altogether?

Summary
Reed looks RK900 up and down, barely masked disdain in his gaze. “Who’s this?”
“This is RK900. Starting today, he’ll be acting as your partner.”
“Oh, noooooo fucking way.” Reed stands quickly and shoves a pointed finger into his superior’s face. “I’m not working with a fuckin’ toaster.” His finger shifts its aim towards RK900. “Especially not that one.”or
After the end of the Revolution and the successful establishment of New Jericho, RK900 has lost his only purpose yet again. When directed to find a new one, he settles on journalism - the only other pursuit he thinks worth his time.
However, the public, and a certain Gavin Reed - a once-respected journalist, are finding it... difficult... to accept the tides of change.
It is now RK900's objective to fix that. -
