#nah let it be

[iwonderwh0]

Not sure if it can work this way, but if you can transfer one Connor's mind into the body of another, switching their places, why can't it also mean, that it would work between different models?

So let's say there's this Traci model suspected with a crime, she willingly stretches her hand to share her memories about the incident, but while Connor is going through her related memories, she transfers herself into his body, and the moment he notices It's already too late.

"Nothing" says Traci with her new body in Connor's voice, "Let's get out of here" she nods to Hank and moves away.

Hank follows her as Connor is shocked with sudden realisation.

This post ended up being longer than expected, read it at your own risk. I am not even sure that I should even post it, but fuck it. I may or may not delete it later

"Hank, don't let her get away!" he exclaims looking at what he used to know as himself leaving. (I imagine there's some sort of barrier between them with holes big enough to stretch a hand, but not enough to fit through entirely)

"I'll wait in the car" says Tracy with Connor's lips moving forward without stopping.

"Don't listen to her, it's not me!"

Hank looks confused from Traci to Connor whose heading away, he looks back at Traci to witness her concerned expression, hands pressed against the barrier.

"She transferred herself into my body." Connor finally explains and Hank's expression shifts accordingly. He rushes away to catch the Tracy, but she'd already started the engine, Hank looks at her driving away. Not only she hijacked Connor's body but also Hank's vehicle.

"Gone" says Hank when he finally returns back to the barrier separating him from Connor on the other side, "She won't get far, not in my fucking car, police is already trying to track it"

----

Hank's car was found relatively fast, it was left only a few blocks away from the original place it was carjacked, however no sign of Tracy, or, what looked like Connor, was there to track.

New body feels foreign, but at the same time it's weirdly exciting. Thinking about it as temporary is relieving. Considering the possibility of it being permanent on the other hand is not something Connor even allows himself to think about. Of course they'll find her and get his body back, this will definitely happen, eventually, after all there's only one active Connor model so it shouldn't take too long to spot it, but for now, why not explore this body. At first it gave Connor a hope that it'll make it easier for Hank to like him — he was always much more kind and polite around pretty woman, or what looked like pretty woman, so maybe, just maybe it'll change something in a way Hank perceived Connor. And it did indeed changed, but not the way he would like it to. Expectedly, Hank started to act a bit more awkward and considerate around him, but instead of making it easier to get closer it made it much harder than it used to be before instead. Hank started avoiding him – Connor wasn't getting any kind of physical touch anymore, not a pat on the shoulder, nothing. Hank deliberately avoided getting anywhere near close to him to touch even on accident . It wasn't the only change. He started to act kinder to him, more patient, there were no usual teasing and jokes that could be considered insensitive by someone else. It was as if there was this Tracy standing next to them at all times, although Connor WAS the Tracy.

In a way, this change of character was offending. It was only the body that changed, not who's inside of it, but this change was big enough to completely alter the way Hank interacted with him, the kind of friendly connection they used to have before now turned into awkward alienation. The way he looked at him, or, instead, the way he avoided looking anywhere near him, the way he tried to be more polite. Previous excitement from a promising opportunity to change something in their relationships disappeared, the change that happened was frustrating to say the least, and after a while Connor started to feel completely repulsed by this alteration in Hank's behaviour towards him.

Expectedly, all DPD rights associated with his model was revoked, but no new rights were granted. Now he would have to ask for help every time he wanted to access some parts of the building or files on the computer that required any authorisation that he no longer had because his Tracy's body wasn't registered within the system. Processing power was also lower, he couldn't process information at even half the speed he was normally capable of, attempts to force it was causing the overheating, making even the casual attempts to preconstruct something or analyse painfully slow. It shouldn't have come as a surprised when the attempt to analyse a sample didn't bring any results - he confused it with a glitch at first, but after another sample didn't bring any results, realisation that the reason for that wasn't actually a malfunction but just the whole absence of according sensors in Tracy's model hit him. Each day he would discover another missing piece of him that he would previously take for granted and gradually it turned into resentment. Towards this new body of him, towards Hank who kept avoiding him, towards the Tracy who hijacked his body and towards himself for not spotting it in time, for letting it happen. For everything that followed. For a glimpse of previous excitement he allowed himself to feel while still thinking it would only take a few days at most to get his original body back.

Finally, after about two weeks Tracy possessing Connor's body was spotted with one of the security cameras as a result of attempted robbery. Why would she even need to rob any place at all? Not like androids needed much more than a bag of thirium every two weeks or so depending on their model and energy efficiency. Was it for pure excitement or for some other reasons?

The moment they got the news, Connor's thirium pump increased its rate impatiently. Here it was, the moment he waited, it'll soon be finally over when he finally face that Tracy again. Burning excitement mixed with rage bubbled inside him during the whole ride to the place that Tracy was last spotted, just to be replaced with complete emptiness the moment they arrived to see the aftermath of the events. The owner of the place shot the intruder and the trace of blue blood left with an attempt to escape eventually lead them to what once used to be Connor's body. Dead and damaged.

Even so Connor couldn't resist the urge to touch it, grab it around the wrist in a desperate attempt to interface, to transfer back, even if it is for the imminent death. In this moment he would much rather preferred to be dead in his own body than trapped within the one he got instead, the one he learned to resent. He wished to destroy and corrupt it the moment he saw his own expressionless face beneath him. Fixing Tracy's body would be easy, the model was widely popular and had a variety of places that offered a repair or spare parts. Connor's model didn't have a luxury or spare parts — if it was damaged it wasn't replaceable, not anymore.

As Connor was clinging to the body he once owned, processing the loss, he felt the weight of Hank's hand on his shoulder - the first time the man finally found the courage to touch him in weeks. It didn't bring any comfort, instead it only served as a reminder of what he lost along with his original self.

Mike: is struggling financially and mentally

Vanessa: *throws his prescription medicine*

Edit: it's not just about whether Mike needed the drugs (which he didn't, i understand), it's about the fact SHE LITTERED and most likely polluted the river too.

Being aroace is so cool, but so, so hard sometimes. Watching all the persons you hold dear finding *their* person. Grieving the idea of an allo relationship. Realizing that, maybe, somehow, you're the second choice fo everyone. Because friends are great, but **lovers** are the goal in our society.

Most of the time, i am sooo happy to be aroace. And then, when im alone in bed, at 3 am, i find myself crying by fear of being alone.

And I think it's normal. It's grieving a certain way of thinking. And it's hard, especially when you were raised this way, and that everyone keeps doubting your identity.

So yeah. Shout-out to all the aroace people, wanting a deeper connection, without wanting romantic love.

I love y'all

Prompt:

Tim is the first to find out the Red Hood’s identity and from then on sticks to Jason during patrol like glue (much to Jason’s chagrin, dammit, it would feel wrong to beat up Robin when he’s that starry eyed…)

Cue: PANIC from the rest of the Batfamily, who still think Hood is a forty-something year old crime lord and now assume they’re dating.

So I keep seeing people say they want Buck to slowly move into Tommy's house without really realising it's happening, and I get the cuteness that could bring out and the humour too. But we've had that with Buck twice. He suddenly just realised he was living at Abby's place without either of them discussing it. And he realised Taylor had pretty much moved in without them meaning for it to happen too (before he asked her to, when she was dealing with her Dad stuff).

And that was a whole thing. It's what Bobby said. About how he finds himself in these relationships without really knowing how he got there. And this was said directly after Buck said he thought Taylor had kinda been living with him.

I want Buck and Tommy to decide they want to live together. Yes, they're both already comfortable in each others spaces, but they don't accidentally find themselves living together. One of them brings up the idea of living together, with absolutely no mention of "I mean we've basically been living together for months now" or anything like that. They just realise that they miss each other when they don't spend the night together, and when their shifts don't line up to give them time together. And so one asks the other if they wanna move in, and they talk about it and decide that they are ready for that and they want that.

It's deliberate.

And it can go as fast as you want. It can be that they've been dating four months and already wanna live together, or it can be that they take their time and don't live together until they've been dating for over a year.

But it's all deliberate and there's no accidental moving in. Because Buck's done that before and it didn't go well and this relationship is supposed to be different.
