Summary
Only a month after the success of the androids’ peaceful demonstration, a new problem has arisen. Three androids were murdered, in their own homes, by the same weapon.
A taser.
A taser that should not have been possible for a regular citizen to get their hands on.
Connor, a newly official detective at the DPD, has been assigned the case. But not with Lieutenant Anderson as his partner, no.
He has to work with Detective Gavin fucking Reed.

Summary
Still adapting to freedom after living his life as a nothing more than a machine, Connor struggles with the aftermath of breaking his coding. None other than Detective Gavin Reed happens to be the one to guide him back to some semblance of stability after an episode of his processors becoming overloaded -- and after more than five minutes alone in a room, questions rise in both the human and the android, "Is it about strength? Is it about control? Is it about authenticity?"
That undefinable thing between Gavin and Connor, what is it?
It takes an android panic attack, three conversations, a cup of coffee, a bottle of gin, and a kiss for Gavin to figure it out and the answer is annoyingly simple.
(Or: The One Where Gavin Realizes He's Allowed To Be Happy)

Summary
Gavin didn’t want to be here. Correction: he wanted to be anywhere but here. The DPSF Winter Ball was a yearly event that Fowler had been forcing him to go to ever since he made detective. And Gavin hated every fucking second of it.
Tonight was gonna go exactly the way it always went. Gavin would drink the free booze. He’d drink the free booze. And yeah? He’d drink the free booze. It was the only way he’d make it through this fucking hellscape disaster of a night each year. It was absolutely, unequivocally the complete opposite of a ‘fun’ night for him.
And fuck, what could make this night worse?
Being seated with Connor the Robot Tincan Android sent by fucking CyberLife.
Fuck his life. Fuck everything.

5 Times Gavin Wanted and 1 Time He Let Himself Have by adamliketheant
Fandoms: Detroit: Become Human (Video Game)
28 Jun 2025
Tags
Summary
Gavin Reed didn't want a partner, especially not *Connor*. Plastic prick came in, tried to take his job, kicked off a revolution, and left Gavin out cold on the floor of the evidence room.
But that was six months ago. And six months, apparently, is a long fucking time.
Long enough for prejudices to crack. Long enough to catch feelings he had no idea what to do with.
Gavin spent his whole life learning that hope gets you nowhere. That nothing good sticks. People leave- or worse, they got tired of him and stayed just long enough to make it hurt. So he stopped wanting things entirely.
Until Connor, relentless, patient, and stupidly kind, started looking at him like he was worth something. Like he was worth sticking around for.
And maybe Gavin wanted to believe it.
Five times he held himself back... and one time he didn't.
(Plus a bonus smutty chapter at the end because I know how frustrating it can be to read 5 chapters of pining and only get the 1 of The Good Shit, lmao).

Summary
Abby and Mike had been living with Jeremiah temporarily as the latter two worked on repairing the damage left by the animatronics, a sense of normalcy beginning to return to his life. When he returns to their house one night to retrieve a few forgotten items, he expects dust, memories, and silence. What he doesn't expect is something that knows where he goes first, speaks his name from an empty room, and refuses to tell him who, or what, it is.
Mike knew that after the events of that night, hell, even the past year, nothing would really go back to normal.
He just didn’t expect it to start again so soon.The Faztalker remembers him. And it has something to say.
(someone please help me come up with a new name for this)

Summary
“Wilson!” he calls, willing to concede if only to understand what the hell is going on. “You can stop now! You win!”
“Hm?” Wilson reappears in the doorway, knotting some hideously patterned tie. “If this is about the poker game I know you cheated on—”
“This prank,” House says, gesturing all around the apartment. “You got me, you don’t have to—”
But in the action of waving his hand around, his gaze catches on a shiny glint on his finger. He blinks at it. Once, twice. It can’t be.
He’s wearing a wedding ring.
Out of the corner of his eye, he sees Wilson place his hands on his hips, roll his eyes. There’s a similar band on his left hand, fourth finger—the designated marriage finger. The sight is not unfamiliar to House, what with Wilson’s endless stream of wives, but House has never seen a matching ring on his own hand. Certainly not one that matches Wilson’s.
~
Or, where House wakes up in an alternate universe where he and Wilson are married.

Summary
Spamton gets an ad slot on TV Time. After his ad went well he gets an offer to have another slot, and another, and another. Soon he's a regular guest on the show and is practically the co-host in just a few weeks. Eventually he starts catching feelings for Tenna and things go as expected. Pure panic and worry.
Tenna didn't give out ad slots to just anyone but the salesman intrigued him, how could someone get so popular so fast? After the first ad goes well he offers another slot to the salesman, and another, and another. Soon Tenna is seeing the salesman almost every day. In just a few weeks he practically had a co-host for his show. When he realizes that he's catching feelings for Spamton he goes into full on panic mode.
This is basically about the silly guys and how their relationship started and how it might have gone if Spamton got all of his success the normal way instead of listening to the voice on the phone.

Summary
It was a major misconception that House was incapable of experiencing positive empathetic emotions. He certainly felt them. Frequently, in fact. But they just weren’t as comfortable for him as the almost routine misery and chaos that he felt most often. When he was feeling one of these positive emotions, he would occasionally feel the urge to do something kind, but it rarely worked out well for him. People weren’t receptive to a brief moment of kindness after being subjected to hours of his sarcastic put downs.
Somewhere along the way one person became an exception to this deeply ingrained habit.

Summary
Gordon Freeman did not ask for a second chance.
He didn't ask for Benrey to come back from the dead, bleeding, dazed, and weirdly casual. He never asked to smell the same metallic smell and see the same run-down science facility every time he closed his eyes, or feel the same panic he did a year ago when Benrey does something so simple as to steal a fry from him.
But for some reason, Gordon helps him anyway.
Maybe cause he's stubborn. Or curious.
Or maybe because if he can understand Benrey—and forgive him—he can try to put this all behind him. (It's really a mystery.)
Meanwhile, Benrey's still figuring out how to be a human. But it's hard. Especially when your past is half-fake and your existence might've been a lie, and when Gordon Freeman's staring at you like you personally murdered his dog.Bookmarked by brainerr

Summary
He was a medic, for Primus’ sake! He’d been a medic, the CMO of the Autobots for millions of years – he should be better than this. He should be able to find a solution. He’d saved millions of lives.
He should be able to make his body work.
“Ratchet?”
Ratchet jumped – and whirled around to the voice at the door. “It’s my off shift!” he snarled, instinctively keeping his hands behind his back to hide the shaking. “If you’re not actively leaking you better come back during regular hours – oh. It’s you.”
---
Ratchet has a hard time accepting that his hands no longer do what he tells them to. One evening, Drift surprises him in the medbay.Bookmarked by brainerr

Summary
Optimus Prime is young. Too young. By Cybertronian standards, he is barely an adult. He is far too young and the world asks so much of him.
“You have to lead us,” they say. “Primus chose you.”
I don't know how to lead, he wants to say. I barely even know how to mine.
Or: Optimus struggles with leading his people to war, and his new position as Prime. (It's all okay in the end.)

Summary
Mark had never planned for Strahm to survive if he didn't get into the glass coffin. It'd never even crossed his mind that he could, so when the hydraulic systems fail... well, he doesn't really know what the fuck to do about that.
Now he has a very injured, very pissed off FBI agent on his hands that he may or may not have framed for murder. But maybe Mark can still try to make Strahm understand just what it is he'd been trying to tell him in the first place.
(or, mark and peter go on a road trip to get peter's arm taken care of, and learn things about each other along the way.)
