#potential rk1700

[ao3feed-rk1700]

a truth universally acknowledged

by Cherpov

One of the problems many androids were finding out in their newfound freedom was the challenge of an overarching system demanding assimilation instead of exploration. Humans had been wary enough of the potential androids held over them, and the government had been none too keen on letting them run about without harder boundaries beyond the typical social contract. No: to become an American citizen, one needed to become as human as possible.

That meant functioning with a secondary gender. It was hard for Connor to decide, because all of the roles were something he was more than capable of fulfilling. Perhaps, then, it depended on what sort of partner he wanted.

And that realization blindsided him one humid Monday morning, when Nines walked into the precinct - scented as an Omega.

A Toast to What Could Have Been

Chapter 3: The Things Left Behind

Connor left pieces of himself behind whenever he would leave. Not in the literal sense of course, but the emotional. The habitual. Richard listened to music pretty often now. In the places where is preconstructions of Gavin once stood, Connor now stood in his place. In a stark difference to the way Gavin had haunted him, Connor also lingered after he was gone. It was an overlap of past and present. He would clean up his apartment and find things that belonged to Connor. His personal favorite was a mug that Connor had likely stolen from Hank. It was an old beat up thing that said ‘Androids Steal Jobs!’ on the side in bold black lettering. Before it made it’s home in Richard’s cabinet, he fondly remembered Connor drinking from it while making eye contact with Gavin. He’d said something about finding those moments entertaining now when he looked back on them. That was about the time the mug appeared in his cabinet. Rather than Connor’s trace information on it, Richard’s scan had come away with Hank’s finger prints. He wasn’t as close with the Lieutenant as he was with Connor, but that didn’t make the gesture lose any of it’s meaning. Maybe he would take it with him when he came back to work. His desk was a little sparse after all.

The door to his bedroom now stood proudly open. The traces of himself that Gavin had left behind were gone. In their place were the various moments of Connor discovering human transgressions against fashion. While it had hurt much like Richard expected it to, it hadn’t hurt nearly as much as he thought it would. One by one the phantoms of himself that Gavin had left behind were replaced by moments of Connor doing the same. From the little things; like his predecessor dancing when he thought Nines wasn’t paying attention; to the big ones like Connor gathering all of the physical things Gavin had left behind and placing them on his desk one item at a time for days on end. Connor had learned a lot of human things from Hank, and Richard was certain that this level of pettiness was one of them. He enjoyed it though.

His name is Richard, he likes his LED, Electro pop music, and the things Connor leaves behind when he goes. His name is Richard; and he is no longer defined by the things Gavin left behind.

sort of a dance au

(note: this is actually an extension of the Adrenaline prompt, but can be taken as an entirely separate concept) 

In an attempt to curb Connor’s endless restless energy more, markus and josh suggesting dancing. A… safer alternative, of sorts, to a fight.

Connor finds the proposal both fascinating and slightly alarming.

He’s too embarrassed, at first, to really dance with anyone- especially when markus and Hank collectively forbid him from just downloading the function and introducing him instead to some androids who had been dance instructors before they deviated, or just androids who had taken up dance. Connor learned quickly, but was still a little embarrassed to dance with anyone- especially the way he dances.

Connor dances like he fights- all sharp, intensely impassioned movements- lethal and delicate all at once, abrupts twists and turns that almost feel like winds lashing out from a storm beautifully centered in his chest. Swallows down his adrenaline just to clamp into under his skin and feel it sizzle.

Love Yourself

Rules: It’s time to love yourselves! Choose your 5 (or so) favorite works your created in the past year (fics, art, edits, etc.) and link them below to reflect on the amazing things you brought to the world in 2020. Tag as many writers/artists/etc. as you want (fan or original) so we can spread the love and link each other to awesome works!

Thank you so much for the tag! @mollyinthewater <33

1) Baby It’s Cold Outside

This is the first fic I ever posted to AO3 and my first work in the fandom. It holds a special place in my heart for that reason.

Staking out a building takes a turn for the worse when an unfortunate snowstorm hits Detroit.

2) Adventures in miscommunication

I just wanted to write a short, sweet little story of Nines not understanding how high-fives work. Absolutely hated it. It sat untouched in my WIP-folder for months. Eventually I posted it anyway and it ended up being very well-recieved. It made me realise I shouldn’t be too harsh on myself. A work doesn’t need to be perfect for someone else to enjoy it and it’s now one of my favourites! :)

Nines doesn’t understand social cues.

Or, in which Gavin feels like high-fiving is the best way to celebrate solving a case and Nines misinterprets the gesture.

3) Through the cracks I see you (and you’re beautiful)

This was my first long boi! I’ve always had issues writing more than 5k words for a fic but I just got really invested in this one. I loved writing it and I’m very happy with the end result. CaffeinatedJimmie acted as a beta for it and made it way better ^^

With his body damaged beyond repair, Nines’ memories are set to be transferred into a different AI-core. Gavin is right there by his side throughout the harrowing process and seeing the progression of their partnership through Nines’ perspective gives him some valuable insight into his partner’s mind. 

4) Promise me today and I’ll promise you tomorrow

I loved the idea, brought to you by the lovely Yayen-chan, and I knew I wouldn’t know peace until I wrote it down. I dunno- it was cathartic to write in some ways. It’s sad but hopeful in some places. 

Story about death, reincarnation and undying love.

5) This little prompt-thingy

Written as a part of the first prompt-ask-thingy I did on tumblr. It’s the first time I wrote RK1700 and while potentially a bit ooc, I do like the way it turned out. I’d like to write more for the pairing in the future.

Nines is sick and Connor looks after him.

Tagging: @caffeinatedjimmie, @gavinisqueertbh, @yayen-chan and @marndraws, if you want to of course!

RK1K, RK1700, and Markara (Markus x Kara) for the ship bingo!

thanks for sending this in!! *kith* <3

RK1K!

pretty self-explanatory! rk1k is THE otp and by FAR my favorite ship in dbh. i love them so fucking much ;w;

RK1700!

the “im picky about it” is probably like. the best explanation for my feelings on this ship LKSDJFSD cos it is connor x rk900. which in turn is connor x oc. and like. i have read and seen good rk17k content, and it is very much a guilty pleasure of mine. but hhhhh its just. complicated LKJSDFSKD i am very picky about it ig?? and if i was to produce my own content of it, it would be between connor x richard (my own rk900 oc) lol

tho bc of how much i ADORE rk1k, i can see it being more of a one sided attraction (from 900′s side) if anything ;w; they are mainly my primary ship in au’s tbh, stuff like post bad-ending at whatnot if that makes sense?

Markara!

it’s not one i’d consider too much?? but it does have potential and i can certainly see them being quite a cute ship tbh! although luthara and rk1k will always be my top kara and markus ships respectively lol <3

rk1700 december day 7: machine

written for @rk1700december​. day 7: machine

kinda cheated this one by making two other characters talk about rk1700. ah meh.

female connor is rhea, rk900 is cronos.

trigger warning(s): mild dehumanisation, swearing/profanity 

also on ao3

----

Anchor looks like she would have slammed the door shut if it could be. As the door slides shut and the lock engages, she never once takes off her eyes from the person standing imposingly in front of her, and her eyes are defiant with anger and steel; if looks could kill, her glare would have at least burnt a hole in the dark metallic chassis of her companion.

‘Permission to drop the formalities?’ she asks. ‘It’s real fucking tiring to pretend that I have a speck of respect for you.’

The android turns around to reveal glowing red rings lining their eyes. ‘I don’t need your respect to operate the Alliance, Anna. You know it.’

‘Good,’ Anchor - Anna - stands unfazed by the red orbs and non-standard dark chassis, and she crowds into the android’s personal space, her nose nearly touching their chin, ‘’cause this isn’t about standard Alliance protocol. What in the sky did you do to Rhea?’

‘Evolution,’ is the too-calm reply. ‘A necessity stemming from the inevitable evolution of sentience. Attachments. The desire to propagate their own species in their own image. Cronos and Rhea, parents to the most powerful gods. The most advanced models in existence apart from me. The perfect subjects.’

Anna gives the android a hard shove with a blast of blue from her palms. ‘On one hand you said all androids are human, and at the same time you do this?’ she gestures angrily at nothing in particular. ‘Pick a fucking side, Ryder. If the other androids know what their beloved Administrator been doing all this fucking time -’

‘You should know more than the others that they know what’s at stake, Director,’ the android - the Administrator purrs. ‘One small sacrifice for the brightest future. It is fortunate that Cronos has a… natural affinity with Rhea.’

‘Is that really him or is it just programming?’

A humourless chuckle. ‘Oh please, you know the first thing I do before letting them have a hint that the Alliance exists is breaking their programming,’ Ryder says. ‘Can’t say that it completely overrides the original code, though.’

‘Does Rhea even know what’s happening to her?’

‘No and it is better this way.’

‘“Better?” You own fucking child is in pain every single sodding day, barely walking and keeping herself awake, and you think it’s “better” this way?’ A growl. ‘You don’t even treat her as a person, do you?’

A bright flash. A bang. When the tendrils of blue dissolve, Anna is steadying herself from being held against the wall, and the non-existent distance between the two has somehow widened into the entirety of the office. ‘A person and a machine. The ability to manipulate others and be manipulated against our will is in our nature, one that we should exploit to reach our maximum potential. You have your orders,’ Ryder looms over Anna once more, ‘now fall in line, Director, and be glad that you are here to witness literal evolution.’

The emotions on the human’s face fade away and are replaced by blankness. ‘Still,’ she says, smoothing out the creases on her clothes, ‘I’ll appreciate it if there’s a way to relieve her pain other than force-feeding her thirium.’

Dark metallic plates twist into a cruel smile. ‘I’ll have to take a look at Rhea.’

‘I’ll have to be there. So will Cronos.’

‘And if I say no?’

‘Have fun prying Cronos away from Rhea without killing one or both of them.’

Ryder’s eyes narrow. ‘Fine,’ she snaps. ‘Bring them to my office. I’ll see what I can do.’

The RK1700-anon here! How about RK900 embracing Connor in a bear-hug, and almost crushing the poor plastic guy bc Nines hasn't learned the amount of his own power compared to others? Bonus: Nines using all of his advanced technology to destroy CyberLife,bc fuck these guys.

He would go hard on him, but Connor can take it ;)

He would definitely terminate Amanda for what she did to Connor before going after CyberLife to end every last one of them so his predecessor would be safe. He would do what has to be done to protect him, by all means necessary. I think if you are in a machine pathway, he would go for killing, but in a best ending setting he would most likely incapacitate (more or less permanently) any potential threat and turn them in. Given the situation he wouldn’t hesitate to shield him and take the damages for him but it would upset Connor, because the RK900 might be more resistant but he has fewer spare parts compatibles and is harder to fix because of this.

A Toast to What Could Have Been

Chapter 2: Me, Myself, and Connor

Richard wasn’t ready to go back to work at the station. He wasn’t going to be able to sit across from Gavin without breaking in some way. He was afraid he supposed, of what the close contact would bring. So he took all of the vacation time he had available. He had no plans to go anywhere. He just needed time to make the pieces of himself that he had left into something that could pass as something functional. He changed his hair back to the default because he had always liked that look. The sight of his LED after not seeing it for so long caught him off guard and he spent a long moment just staring at it. He watched it roll and blink in time with his thoughts. Yellow flashes mixed in with blue. Seeing it again was more reassuring than he thought it would be. It was the one thing about himself he had refused to change. Richard got the first week to himself. He spent a lot of it looking at or touching his LED as he tried to figure out what else was entirely his. He had even tried going through his clothes, but that had brought back more memories of Gavin than he was ready to deal with. He hadn’t gone back into the room since then. He didn’t need to go into stasis all that often, but when he needed to he would do that on the couch.

He thought about Connor a lot too. He balanced these things so well and Richard envied him. He made it look so easy. He had habits that were incredibly human; like the way he would wring his hands when he was nervous, how he shrunk in on himself when he was uncomfortable, or how he would listen to music out loud. He also did things that made it unmistakable that he was an android; the unintentional burst of static he let out when he was frustrated, how he would interface with just about anything, and the precision of his coin tricks. No one really seemed to be all that uncomfortable with him despite his past. Richard couldn’t understand it. On the Sunday that marked the start of the second week of his soul searching shut in there was a series of knocks at his door. He hadn’t told anyone where he was, and he certainly wasn’t planning to have company. The knocks came again and they were more insistent this time. He glared toward his door in hopes that would get the message across that he wanted to be alone. When his scan came back to show that it was Connor on the other side that plan quickly shriveled up and died. Common decency was the only thing that was keeping Connor from actively breaking down his door. He wasn’t above staying out there all day and just knocking until Richard got annoyed enough to actually answer the door. He decided to save himself the trouble and got up to answer the door.

There was Connor in a blank grey baggy hoodie and loose jeans. He looked comfortable, natural, and might have even passed for human if it weren’t for the LED at his temple. He smiled widely when he saw Richard. “Hey.” He greeted casually, “I wanted to make sure you were doing okay after everything with Gavin; and my messages haven’t been going through so I was worried.” Richard flinched when he heard the name, “I wanted to be alone.” He took a moment to collect himself and absently reached for his LED, “I have a lot to think about, but I’m fine Connor, I promise.” “Don’t lie to me Nines.” He replied sharply, “Please. I know what he meant to you. How much he changed you; but isolating yourself isn’t going to help.” Richard bristled. Connor could lay people bare so easily and it was uncomfortable. “What else am I supposed to do? I’m looking for anything I can call mine.” He realized his defensiveness was causing a bit of a scene so he stepped aside that way  they could continue this conversation in the relative privacy of the apartment, “I have nothing Connor. His fingers are everywhere in here, on me, and all of the things I thought I knew about myself.”

“Did you really think you would find yourself in a place buried in the things he left behind?” Connor asked, “The first step is to clear that away and see what you have left.” Richard sighed sharply and it was laced with static, “I know, and I’ve tried.” He felt like he was admitting defeat, that he was failing in some way, “It hurts too much.” “Then let me help.” He said it in a way that made it clear it wasn’t the offer it sounded like. “Why?” Richard asked. “Because this isn’t something that you can do on your own.” He reached down and took Richard’s hand careful not to let his skin fall away, “Asking for help doesn’t make you weak. You aren’t failing in anything, I promise.” “Then why does it feel that way?” He pleaded. “Our code. We were made to be self sufficient, but they had no way to account for emotions.” Connor replied with a gentle squeeze to his hand, “That’s why I’m here, to help you through this.” Richard looked away from him and dropped his hand, “Where do we even start?” “That’s up to you Nines.” He said, “We can start with you or your space. Whichever is the easiest.”

He brushed his fingers over his LED as he thought about it. He had known that getting past this wasn’t going to be easy; not when Gavin had meant so much to him; but he hadn’t realized how many decisions he would have to make. He decided that they should work on the apartment. It would be easier because he still didn’t know ‘who’ he was and he hadn’t saved up enough money to move yet. “The apartment I guess.” He said eventually, “I want to be able to look around and not be reminded of him.” Connor smiled, “That’s a good plan. Let’s start with the kitchen and work our way back.” The bedroom would be the last stop if they followed that plan. Connor seemed to know that and winked when Richard turned back to stare at him. “Okay.” He said distantly. “Mind if I play music while we work?” Connor asked. It was another one of the very human things he did, “I find that it keeps me from thinking too much if I play it out loud.” “Alright.” Richard replied distantly. Connor connected to the radio in the kitchen with a few blinks of his LED. After a moment the kitchen came alive with the sound of some electro pop number. The bubbling sound was a pleasant change from the heavy silence he had grown used to.

Richard didn’t realize how alone he had been until Connor had come along to fill the empty space in his apartment. He brought with him sounds and signs of life. They didn’t get anywhere near done with the kitchen because Connor kept getting distracted by the music. It was nice. Richard came away with the knowledge that he liked techno pop and EDM, and that he hated techno metal. They were small things, but significantly more than what he’d had before. By the time Connor left for the day Richard felt a lot better. He promised to come by every day after work until they finished cleaning the apartment; and Richard found himself looking forward to it oddly enough. Richard let the music keep playing after Connor had left because he liked it. This was the first of many small steps, but he finally had something of his own. His name was Richard. He liked his LED and electro pop music.

They have a long day ahead of them. A full schedule. Much to do. For Connor the ultimate mission is to ensure the uncontested success of the RK800 program. To be the best, most efficient, most discerning investigator and forensic scientist in existence. To completely outclass humanity in every aspect of crime scene investigation. To bring to bear the full potential of science and technology in the pursuit of criminal justice.

Shortsighted, mercurial, and ultimately dismissive of Connor's striking abilities, the CyberLife board failed to realize that the RK800 would discover their intentions. Yes, he knows about the RK900 project, and he will do all that he can to sabotage and annihilate his replacement.

And to do this it is imperative that he endears himself totally, utterly, and irrevocably to Dr Elijah Kamski, to exploit his human weaknesses wherever they are found.

Or: Spring 2028, Connor weasels his way into becoming Kamski's personal assistant, gentleman valet, and maybe more, if he can accomplish his mission. (Can be read standalone.)
