Summary
Hank wondered, faintly, what Connor did when they weren’t together. He wondered if Connor ever thought about him, worried about him. He wondered if Connor knew he was still drinking even after the rude awakening on his kitchen floor.
He wondered why he cared what Connor thought, anyway.
Being lonely was a funny thing, it had a way of taking your relationships with others and turning them into a life-raft in the distance.
Connor was something new to focus on, but Hank had been drowning for years.

Summary
After the car accident that nearly killed them both and left Cole in leg braces, Hank Anderson decided life was too short to not dedicate it to his kid. He left the DPD to open his own business where he could do work he loved that didn’t risk his life while always having time for Cole. Three years later, his handroasted coffeeshop is moderately successful, and he’s looking to hire a pastry chef to add bakery goods onto his menu.
Post-revolution, RK-800 Connor is looking for reliable, simple employment that will take him away from police & investigative work and give him a chance to get his head together as a new deviant. When Captain Fowler nudges him in Hank’s direction, it seems like a logical solution.
Nothing can run smoothly, though, and while Hank manages the stress of being a single father and owning his own business, Connor is balancing his own personal existential crisis with the fact that he doesn’t fit in anywhere and isn’t sure what kind of life he’s going to lead when Hank inevitably gets sick of him and lets him go. It isn’t even close to the ‘best’ of circumstances. But Connor’s starting to think if he isn’t real in Hank’s bakery, he isn’t real at all.

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
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.
