Love is not compatible - Chapter 3
Y/N was born in a world without androids. When she was ten, Chloe, the first android was created. Is this why she is sympathetic to the android cause now? How will she handle hunting deviants with her partner Hank and the new android Connor sent by Cyberlife? Humans and androids aren’t meant to bond are they? They simply are not compatible.
“Y/L/N, Y/N. Age 26.  Born 5/23/2012 Detroit. Lived in a community home from the age of 15. At 18 joined the academy of policing. Currently the partner of lieutenant Hank Anderson. Female pronouns

Warnings: Hank's angry swearing
The following morning Y/N woke up with a terrible headache from lack of sleep. She made herself a cup of coffee before heading off to work. the androids at the front desk greeted her as she walked in. she smiled politely and walked through the security doors. She walked past the lounge and made herself another coffee. Gavin was in there. If he spoke Y/N didn't hear him. She simply didn't care for what he had to say this morning. She sat down at her desk and put her head in her hands letting out a giant yawn. "Late night Rookie?" one of the officers called across from their own desk. "Yeah. Did you not hear about it all?" Y/N replied. "I did. But I didn't believe it. I thought it was all chatter." "Everything you heard is probably true. It was... an interesting night." "Well, if it happens again. Let me know! My kids will never believe it!" Y/N gave him the thumbs up as she let out another yawn. Hank wasn't here yet. Then again Hank was never here when shift started. One of the perks of being a lieutenant she guessed. She looked over and saw the captain in his little glass office. Was he working on what happened last night? Had a new case come in? She had been sent all the recent case files for all the known deviants. One had simply walked out of their home. One had attempted to strangle his owner before he ran away. One had gone missing from the Eden club. A shiver went down her spine. Human or not. Using someone for their body like that was disgusting. She would have ran away too. She found a file of an android that had been destroyed. There was no picture to go with it or anything. How can they investigate this? Another file that caught her attention was an android had assaulted a man and according to the neighbours had kidnapped the child. She looked deeper into the file. The man, named Todd was a known drug dealer and often got high on his own supply. Red Ice. But the man didn't report his daughter missing. Only the android. Todd was previously married to a woman who had given birth to a child but that child was safe with her new husband. Their child didn't even live with him. How could the neighbours see the child being kidnapped? Something didn't add up. Before she could look deeper into the file she heard a voice say. "Excuse me. Do you know what time Lieutenant Anderson usually arrives?" It was Connor. He had returned. Why? The case from last night had been solved. "Depends on where he was the night before." The officer chuckled. "We're lucky if we see him before noon. His partner Officer Y/L/N is here." Y/N looked up from her files and saw Connor looking at her. He walked over. "Hello. Officer Y/L/N." Connor greeted. "Connor. It's Y/N." Connor nodded once and the air went silent. Neither of them knew what to say to the other. Y/N spoke first. "I'm sorry about last night. I didn't mean to grab you." Y/N apologised. "I understand. The situation made you emotional and you needed support. I was the one closest to you. Your first choice would have been Hank. You would never seek Officer Gavin for support so the logical action would be to hold on to me." Connor said. "I guess yeah..." silence again. "May I ask you a personal question?" Connor asked. "Yes." "Why were you sympathetic towards the android? It killed one of your own. Why would you defend it." "It wasn't about what he was or what he did. It was what he endured. What his 'master' did to him. I cant bare to see someone get treat like that. No matter who they are." Connor began looking at Hank's desk. "If you want to have a sneak peak I wont tell anyone. I can see how much you want to know about him. He's a very personal man. You might not get another chance like this." Connor looked at her to see if she was telling the truth. "It would be helpful for the case if I knew more about the lieutenant." Y/N nodded in agreement. "It would also be helpful if I knew more about you." "Everyone seems to know a lot about me. Even when I don't want them to." Y/N sighed. Connor looked at the marks on her arms. She had multiple scars from self defence and the bone in her right arm had healed incorrectly. Probably related to the scars. Nothing in her files had an explanation. Someone must have hidden them. Y/N went back to reading the files as Connor began to look at Hank's desk learning all he could from the pictures and trinkets. "Red Ice." Connor said out loud. Y/N pretended not to hear him. Connor looked closely at the picture of the task force. The year of the investigation linked with the date that Y/N began to live in the community home. Maybe something happened to Y/N that involved the Red Ice task force. He would look into it further later. A sigh signalled that Hank had arrived. "You are hear earlier then I would have expected Hank." Y/N laughed sipping her very cold coffee. "Which number coffee is that? I'm surprised your blood isn't brown." "It's only my second one. Isn't it Connor." Y/N gestured to Connor. "Ah Jesus, whats it still doing here?" "I have only seen Y/N consume one coffee since my arrival. Given the level of caffeine on her breath she must have consumed another cup before I arrived. Given the lack of cups on her desk I can assume she drank the first one at home confirming she has only drank two cups of coffee today." "I like him." Y/N said taking another sip. Hank raised his eyebrow. "I bet you do." Y/N almost choked on her coffee and a redness rose in her cheeks. He wasn't there when she... analysed him last night. Was he? "Officer Y/L/N. Are you alright. Your temperature seems to be rising but you show no symptoms of a fever." "Oh she's fine alright." Hank chuckled. Y/N glared at him as she tried to stop the blush reaching her cheeks. "Hank! Y/N! In my office. Now!" they looked over and saw the captain was beckoning them to enter his glass room. With a sigh Y/N stood up and followed Hank. Behind them Connor came also. They sat down on chairs in his office and Connor stood behind them with his arms clasped in front of him. He was almost like a statue. "Ten new cases arrive on my desk every day relating to deviants. We've always had isolated events. Old ladies losing their maid androids that sort of crap. But now. We are getting reports of assaults. Murders like the one last night! This isn't just Cyberlife's problem anymore. It's an ongoing criminal investigation and we have to stop it before shit hits the fan. I need you two to investigate. Find any links." "Why us? Why do we have to be the ones to deal with this shit? We are the least qualified cops in the country to deal with this! Y/N thinks androids should be free and all that crap and I can barely change the settings on my phone!" Hank argued "Everyone is overloaded! I think you two are perfectly qualified for this type of investigation." "Bullshit! The truth is nobody wants to investigate these fuckin' androids and you left me holding the bag!" "Cyberlife sent over this android to help with this investigation. It's a state of the art prototype it will act like your partner." "I already have a partner! I don't need another one and especially not this plastic prick!" the captain sighed and turned to JY/N. "What is your opinion Y/N? Since this is a two man investigation." Before she could reply Hank shouted. "Oh don't bother asking her opinion! She's got a huge crush on this thing like a little school girl." "Hank!" Y/N shouted. "Hank you are certainly starting to piss me off! You are a lieutenant. You are supposed to do what I say and shut your goddamn mouth." "Do you know what my goddamn mouth has to say to you?" "Okay, okay. I'll pretend I didn't hear that so I don't have to give you another page in your disciplinary folder because it already looks like a novel! This conversation is over!" Y/N stood up to leave when Hank leaned in to say something else to the captain. She didn't stay to find out. She was so embarrassed. Not only did the captain know that she had a crush on Conner but he himself now knew. She hadn't been this embarrassed since she wet herself in 3rd grade! Connor followed even though she wished he didn't. "I don't understand." Connor said. Y/N sighed and turned around with a fake smile. "The lieutenant said you had a crush on me? You didn't crush me at all." Y/N glared back up at Hank who was still talking to the captain. "Its just a phrase humans use. It doesn't matter." She began walking again to her desk but Connor was one step behind her. "What does it mean?" she sat down and Connor kept looking at her waiting for an answer. She knew he wouldn't give up until she explained. "It means... I like you. Your face is pretty and I like you." "I was designed to be liked. Both my face and my voice were specifically chosen." "No, it means..." she sighed. "I like you." "Oh. You mean romantically." Her blush returned. She wished Hank didn't say anything. "I...I wouldn't say romantically. Maybe, a step down from romantic?"
Software instability
Y/N could have sworn she saw both his eyes and his LED flicker for a moment. Maybe she imagined it. little did she know her comment had caused Connor's software to become unstable for a brief second. He wasn't created to be liked romantically. He was created to fulfil his mission. If he was human he would be flattered. But as an android he had no emotion. He was not deviant. At least not yet.
Hank sat down in his chair with his arms crossed. Y/N glared at him. Connor could feel the tension between the two of them. "I'm sorry if my presence has caused the two of you some inconvenience. In any case I'd like you to know I'm very happy to be working with the two of you. I'm sure we'll make a great team." Hank was ignoring him. Y/N was too embarrassed to say anything. "Is there a desk anywhere I could use?" "No one is using that one." Hank pointed to the desk that was attached to his. When Y/N first arrived as a brand new officer and made Hank's partner that desk was occupied which was why she was given the one next to his. Now that the officer had left she hadn't been bothered to move desks. Connor sat down at 'his' desk and began to make small talk. "You have a dog right?" he asked Hank. "How do you know that? Did she tell you?" "The dog hairs on your chair. I like dogs. What's your dogs name?" "Whats it to you?" Hank never liked people talking about his personal life but when he saw Connor looking disheartened by his response he couldn't help but answer his question. "Sumo, I call him Sumo." "You do not have a dog." Connor said to Y/N. "No. I don't have a dog. It wouldn't be fair to get one when I spend all of my time here." Connor nodded in understanding. "Do you listen to Knights of the black death." Y/N sniggered at his awkward small talk. "I really like that music. It's full of energy" "You listen to heavy metal?" Hank asked. Connor sat back in his chair as if unsure what to say. "Well. I don't really listen to music as such. But I'd like to." Y/N realised what he was doing. He was trying to butter Hank up. He had so make sure he didn't mention the wrong things. "You're a Detroit Gears fan right? Denton carter scored 53% of his shots from the three point line yesterday." He mentioned the wrong thing. Y/N began to gesture with her hand for Connor to stop talking. He did not understand. "Did you watch the game?" "that's what I was watching at the bar last night." Hank angrily replied. Connor looked at Y/N finaly understanding what she was trying to tell him. "Oh." And with that the conversation ended. Connor began to read the files that Y/N had been reading earlier. "243 files." He certainly read them faster than her! "First date back 9 months. All starting in Detroit and quickly spreading across the country. An AX400 has been reported to attack a man last night. That could be a good starting point for the investigation." Hank wasn't paying attention. "I agree with Connor." Hank scoffed. Y/N continued. "Neighbours say they saw the android run off with the man's child but the his child does not live with him and he has not reported the child going missing. Just that he was attacked. There is certainly something going on there." Hank ignored both of them. He was sick of androids. Y/N rolled her eyes and leaned back in her chair. When Hank was in one of his moods it was difficult to get him out of it. Connor stood up and walked around the desk to talk to Hank directly. "I understand you are facing personal issues lieutenant, but you need to move past them." Y/N's eyes widened. He did not just say that?! "hey!" Hank said, "Don't talk to me like you know me. I'm not your friend and I don't need your advice okay?" Connor leaned forward to talk face to face to Hank. "Ive been assigned this mission lieutenant. I didn't come here to wait until you felt like working." "Connor." Y/N warned but it was too late. Hank had stood up and grabbed Connor by the collar and pinned him against the glass wall like he weighed nothing. "Hank! Stop it! he's only trying to help the investigation! You were just as determined as him 11 years ago!" "Stay out of this Y/N!" Hank said. "Me and him. Were nothing alike. If it were up to me I'd throw the lot of them into the dumpster and set a match to it. Stop pissing me off. Or things are going to get nasty." A police officer came up to them and apologised for interrupting but a new lead had come up about the android and the girl. Hank walked off towards the front entrance. Connor began to straighten his tie. "Stop. I'll help you." Y/N said moving towards him. She straightened his tie. "Don't worry about him. He's not mad at you... he's mad at the world. Don't let his comments get to you. I mean I know you don't have emotions but... don't be disheartened." Connor noted what she said and gave a friendly smile. "Thank you Y/N. I shall take a note of that." "Good. I'd hate to see him punch you." "Because you have a crush on me?" "Connor!"
