    Summary

    “I have to tell them, right…? That it’s me…?” Danny, stitched back together to the best of Vlad’s ability, kept alive with the entanglement of machines Vlad had once used to incubate Danny’s clones. He could only speak when the machine breathed for him. A rasp instead of a voice. Eyes too dry to cry, dehydrated and spent from all the screaming and sobbing Vlad had not been around to witness, and could only imagine. “I can’t hide this. They’re gonna know…”
    ---------
    Maddie has come to beg Vlad for a favor. Over a lunch date, Jack excluded. Vlad accepts with the confidence that he knows precisely what she wants to talk about. (He was more involved than she could ever know, after all.) But Vlad's expectations fall apart as he learns what exactly Maddie has come to ask.

    Summary

    Something warm fills Connor’s chassis, strong enough that he runs a quick diagnostic to check if something else had become damaged. Still just his thirium pump regulator and communicator. The feeling runs hot and pleasant through his thirium lines before he registers the sensation must be a part of his behavior conditioning programming, rewarding him for eliciting a positive response from Hank.
    It’s not an emotion. Just a piece of programming.
    Just programming.

    OR

    A well-intentioned Markus kidnaps Connor and takes him to Jericho. But what happens when a machine that can feel emotions doesn't want to deviate? And what ends can justify the means?

    Summary

    It learns the ins and outs of human depravity; learns how to match it with just as much. (It learns how to be so, so much worse.) It learns how to make it's most powerful weapon it's hands and teeth - the predator to humanity's prey.

    Or - "They made me a monster. They made me something so horrendous and something to be so feared and- what now? I'm just supposed to change? I was made to be terrible; I can't just- be good. I can't just be soft."

    "You could be, if you tried."

    "I have tried, Elijah. I've tried so much. And it hasn't changed anything. I'm still a horror."

    "Hm. Well, what's one more try, then?"

    Or or - An attempt at becoming something soft. Maybe, more likely, an attempt in becoming the person you've never gotten to be. Maybe, even more likely than that, an attempt at just healing.

    Summary

    If there was one thing Markus regretted more than pulling that trigger, it was the horribly skewed rumor that spread from Connor’s execution. Just weeks after the success of the peaceful revolution, he learns that somehow Connor is alive, but in order to make amends, Markus will need to first appease a very protective Lieutenant Anderson.
