    Summary

    Connor's memory comes back patchy and spasmodic like hardware updates.

    Sometimes he is screaming. Sometimes he wants to die. Sometimes there is blood on his hands.

    Summary

    Connor was sure it would succeed in every mission given to it, regardless of what it would be: catching deviants, saving hostages, or integrating with humans. Being an obedient, unfeeling machine.
    Turns out it doesn't succeed in any.
    It is constantly failing everybody around it, everyone who has ever had any faith in it or hoped for its help. Connor just doesn't seem to escape being inferior. Broken.
    It just can't help being just itself. And Amanda deserves so much better than that.

    Meanwhile, Lieutenant Hank Anderson is dealing with the android partner he has been assigned against his will. The man has been trusted with a task of keeping an eye on the RK800 - a new prototype capable of advanced combat, eliminating difficult targets, stalking humans and androids alike like a predator. Should the android deviate, the consequences would be tragic. And the man is just beginning to notice the changes within Connor.
    But the RK800 is not the only one undergoing them.

    Summary

    He didn't even have time to open his eyes before a feeling he had never experienced before swallowed his chest whole, making him gasp out a troubled breath. He involuntarily jerked away in an attempt to escape the sudden damage, but whatever the cause of this new terribly unwelcome feeling was determinedly kept digging inside of him. His arms were being pressed down onto a cold surface, restraining any chances of escape no matter how hard he fought against them. He’d be silently screaming through every slice into his exposed chest, desperate for a chance to stop whatever this stinging as though entrapped in a beehive.

    “You’re finally active?” A voice spoke up through the darkness. “Good, good. I was starting to get bored anyway.”

    Or, activating two years ago on Zlatko's table, an RK800 model waits his death. He nearly gives up all hope before a little girl is thrown into his room, and he finds that there's more to existence than the cold of an operation table. The girl gives him a hope he didn't know was possible, and when her android mother comes to their rescue, he embarks on a journey that he will not soon forget. Perhaps in time, he may find out why his thirium pump flutters when they smile at him.

    Summary

    Connor was the first machine made to ask why. The first that was actually designed to think. It's no wonder he's different than all the other androids out there.

    Some of the themes are copied from a work I liked by A_Fool_in_Love from this site. I liked his idea, and was kicking around a similar one at the time myself, so I decided to write it. If you like my stuff, consider checking his out, too.
