#unstable androids

[caramelcactus]

Oh haha yay fellow depressed William Afton truther! Haha yeah that guy is barely holding on by a thread is he (neither are we)

Neither are we really. Ironically this guy is the embodiment of how I have been feeling for the last six months

Just wait until I drop the info about my other William. Androids!William is sane compared to him

[marcusrobertobaq]

I forgot to mention something last night. Remember the debate on "how did the other teams converted androids in Capitol?"

Simply: Probably wasn't needed.

I noticed some androids seem to deviate on sight (no interfacing needed) when they're boutta get rescued:

When the other androids start breaking the glass (doin what u did), other rescued androids automatically join Jericho without interfacing.

So yea, i think that's how the other teams (Simon's and Josh's) got more androids to join Jericho - unless they didn't broke any store to rescue androids in the first place.

[binch-i-might-be]

man that ending gets me every time

[southofzero]

crazy girl bedroom thots but it's crazy to think that someday i will likely long for the days i spent "scraping by" with a 2015 smartphone and busted 6yo laptop &mouse. imgonna feel nostalgia for this when tech decays. some could argue that is already happening. life is so crazy <3

[moonlit-orchid]

The way he speaks "to" Jakob is so quick, it's like a single breath. He really doesn't want to talk to Jakob, but he has no choice, so he's just saying it as quickly as he can to not have to keep talking to him.

To Lester? He starts off with the usual growly voice, but then when he's saying his name his voice seems to be more normal, for lack of a better term. It's less aggressive, and even cheerful. He's genuinely happy to do what Lester's saying. His voice is softer, his tone is more cheerful right at the end, I think it's actually slightly softer to start with and ends much softer, especially compared to when he speaks to Jakob- he keeps the growl the whole time. He has a much better relationship with Lester that his voice is softer when speaking to him (here at least) despite how often they're bickering and it's just adorable

fondly thinking of Primo's DL taunts where he mentions the other Emperors...theyre so short but idk I just really like how you can really get a good gleam of how he feels about his cohorts even in such a compact little snort. "Ok, Lester" is almost sweet....relenting to his little brother's whims. to meeee <3

Things Are Better AU MASTER POST!

Tags used: Things Are Better AU | TAB AU | TAB AU Answers | TAB AU Writing | TAB AU Sun | TAB AU Moon | TAB AU Eclipse |

AO3: https://archiveofourown.org/users/vacantfields

TAB AU: Singing Voices Spotify Playlist

YOU ARE ALLOWED TO: Draw, Write, etc with these guys! (ASK ABOUT NSFW !)(AND remember to credit me!!)

(I will attempt to use the tags as best as i can!! Do also note that things can change in this AU but this is the best place you can go look honestly)

[ In this AU, Sun, Eclipse, and Moon have gotten new bodies, some that are way more humanoid. Technically, they are not animatronics anymore, but the Pizzaplex they live at still deems them as such! They are also all separated; most importantly, THEY ARE NOT BROTHERS. They are best friends! (Sun and Moon, however, seem closer than that.) ]

[ It is set in the 20XX! The date doesn't matter. ]

[ The Location of this thriving Pizzaplex is in the heart of a big city, and the rest of the animatronics have gotten slight upgrades but have remained the same. Sun and Moon still run the Daycare. Eclipse stands as the security guard for the Daycare (Moon also still goes on patrols, as well). They live in the Daycare too! The layout is (sorta) the same as the original Pizzaplex. The boys can leave the place, but they must tell their handler or whoever runs the place how long they will be gone. The virus from the game is not here, BUT a virus is in this! It's highly aggressive and should be avoided at all costs. Moon used to have a virus, but most got removed from him when they moved into these bodies, although some of the virus remains in his code. Eclipse has a different virus embedded in him, and he cannot remember how he acted before; it basically wiped his personality, so now he's somewhat unpredictable. ]

They have humanoid/android bodies

The original body along with their personality chips were created in the middle of the 90s

Moon got his virus in 95 or so but they couldn't fully remove it as they would have to reset him and thats a chore plus it wasn't too dangerous so they moved the guys into separate bodies and it fixed most of it

the story is set in 20XX

The location is in a big city

They have been in the new bodies for around 5 years

The fire, gregory, etc. Did not happen here!

The virus Eclipse was made by some people who wanted to use the animatronics to attack people and make sure that fazbear would shut down

They are not the same guys from the game BUT they do act a lot like them! (kinda)

They used to share a body (Eclipse just being a security setting in them)

Moon has remains of a violent virus

Eclipse has the virus embedded in his code

Eclipse cannot remember who he was before the virus

The virus is not sentient... OR... Is it?

Despite not having the virus, Sun is not handling being alone in his head. His unstable and unused security program snaps in when he has breakdowns and makes his head think it's Moon talking to him.

Sun was the first personality chip then it was Moon and then Eclipse

Other facts

The virus does NOT like the color red on bodies. (Do not wear a red shirt or anything alike that around Eclipse he will attack and KILL.)(Though if they care about you he will hold back from mauling)

They cannot eat BUT! They can taste things!

Their face plates can still spin

They can still use the wire to "fly" around if they wish

They have a secondary voice box that they use for when they talk with people outside of the Daycare/or go out!

In the Daycare they use the "Canon" voice

They can also perform at "Adult Nights" at the pizzaplex, which consists of them singing on stage while the adults drink and so on.

Moon is the only one who actively performs so you can catch him in the evenings on stage!

They are all very flexible... And they can dance (;

They can also talk with each other through a shared headspace (like a group chat)

The old body is stored somewhere in the plex

Android AU: I feel like A!Kafka ends up in Readers shop a lot considering her job. So maybe with the multiple visits/repairs she slowly develops an attachment to Reader beyond what an Android should (as you said). So she isn’t a ‘she was sent to be disposed of and was a one and done situation like other Androids could but had multiple visits to develop an attachment’?) And maybe the attachment (or something else that stems from it) is what finally gets her sent to the shop permanently. Maybe she starts to purposefully ‘fail’ at her job/get damaged more and she’s determined to be no longer capable of doing her job anymore?

Ofc Kafka would willingly allow herself to get damaged, all just to see you 😭😭

The Engineer is probably so confused as to why Android! Kafka comes in with so many bullet dents in her plates all the time, mostly because she knows Kafka is programmed to swiftly dodge/block any attacks possible. Kafka isn’t even an older model either, her system has been updated to be top of the line in her work, so why was she getting damaged so frequently?

Ah, if only the Engineer knew that it was all apart of Kafka’s plan to see her favorite little human. She didn’t care if she messed up her jobs or made her current owner angry because of the constant repair bills. She was well aware enough to know; she wanted to see you more.

Of course, Kafka’s unstable nature is what causes her to be “discarded” by her current owner and left in the hands of you. Oh well! Kafka would much prefer serving you than her previous owner, so her performance suddenly becomes perfect once again when under your care 😅

What a miracle, she’s fixed!

I got bored and made this for my human AU 😭

Soundwave is the best by a longshot because unlike Breakdown and Starscream he understands how to properly help and take care of his children, and his kids aren't even human still they're ANDROIDS and he's doing a good job

Breakdown is in the middle because like... He isn't the best father to Aftermath, he has his own issues and at the beginning didn't know how to properly discipline and help Aftermath (we literally see him start hitting Aftermath in episode one in canon, like, homie that's a child 😭). Of course he learns how to properly help and discipline him but he still isn't the best

I made a whole post on Starscream and Spitfires relation in the AU, but to put it simply he enabled her issues worse and normalized shit like violence for her. He slowly becomes more unstable and unhinged as the story goes on and unfortunately Spitfire can be on the receiving end of it (to clarify, he doesn't hit her, but often lashes out or starts becoming emotionally distant). Not to mention he later on kills her so... Yeah he's the worst here (not to say he doesn't care and love her, he does but he's still a bad dad)

That's the Decepticon rankings, I'll probably do the Autobots next 😁

I’ve been stalking the Jessie tag for a while and I’m obsessed with the idea of his darling being a 6”4 beefcake of a man.

he gets drunk one time in a company party and grabs Jessie by the face and grumbles “why tf are you so goddamn pretty?? Your model is meant to be a male! For fucks sake, you piss me off”

meanwhile Jessie is overheating and blushing because of being (kind of) manhandled like this, ironically making him look prettier. His darling getting annoyed and running his thumb across Jessie’s lips and mumbling “stupid droid, so annoying”

This turned into a bit more angst then I originally intended, but I wanted to finally show the change in B7’s thinking and view of Jesssie as well as the shift in their relationship. Hope you enjoy! Nsfw minors dni

“The fucks wrong with you.” It’s a drawn out hiss that fills the androids synthetic ears, his eyes wide in shock as your form hauls over him, caging him against the floor of the small apartment.

“W..what do you mean B7…?” The stutter in his faux voice almost sounds authentic.

Your head cocks to the side, brows furrowed so deeply they nearly hide the entirety of your eyes.

“You’re too fucking pretty. What the fuck were your creators thinking? You’re a goddamn robot. You’re not supposed to…” Your words that fall into a blabbering slur, as Jessie feels his pumpers work over time, the blue energy that surges through his chords now shining a bright blue beneath his dark cheeks.

“I’m…I’m sorry that my design upsets you..” Why was he apologizing? He didn’t have a choice in his artificial design. But at this moment, as your warm hands curled around the fabric of his shirt, as they tugged and tore through his clothes, the only thing he felt he could do was apologize.

“Yeah…? You’re sorry..?” It’s a sneer, not a question. You’re mocking him and how could he possibly dislike it?

It happens so quickly. His standard issued clothes are torn from his body, the draft only recognized by his sensors, as his body shivers. It’s not from the cool air. It’s from the unstable shock that travels through his servos. He feels something shift beneath him.

—

His jaw aches. He didn’t know it could. But it does and he loves it. He loves feeling your cock, sliding in and out of his throat. The synthetic saliva, coating your length in a clear lube.

He’s so eager. Forcefully yanking himself off your cock to lick the tip eagerly. To suck, and beg you to cum in his mouth as he gasps and cries. Ruin his pretty face. Cum all over it please.

“No…you’ll look too cute then..”

He wants to cry. “Please…B7 please you can’t…you have to…!” The feeling of your fingers knotted into his curls is intoxicating, his own fingers gripping the flesh of your thighs needily. “Cum on my face…please..!”

You almost pity the bot. His eyes are glossing over so authentically, his skin is shiny with sweat. The only thing that disillusioned you to his humanity, was the vibrant and furious blue glow on his cheeks, that reminded you of the blood that kept him running.

That’s the part that killed any sympathy you had for him. It.

And that’s why the speed in which your cock hit the back of his throat increased cruelly. He choked and sputtered so realistically, you almost played with the thought that it was real, watching in a sick satisfaction as saliva dribbled down his jaw.

His fingers dug into your skin, as he moaned obscenely.

Your gaze caught the way his lashes fluttered prettily over his eyes, like this was almost peaceful for him. Like he so genuinely enjoyed this.

The thought made your stomach curl in a strange way. You had noticed the bots…fascination in you. You found it frankly insulting. This being, designed to be perfect, to take your job, to govern you, was intrigued by you. Because you were human. And entirely inferior.

The reminder was a slap across the face, and as your finish spilled into his throat, you couldn’t help but sneer down at the bot, who moaned excitedly around your cock, swallowing every drop, and seeming to even want to start again as he sucked the tip.

But you pulled away, forcefully pushing his head back as he followed your movement in an attempt to continue.

Glowing blue eyes peered up at you, like an abandoned pet just begging for any semblance of love or affection.

—

The feeling of your cock buried deep inside the droid appeared in a blur. Your hands gripping the perfect, soft skin of his hips, as he bent downward onto the floor, body surging forward with each mean and sharp thrust of your hips. The sound was real.

His cries, his moans, the sound of your skin slapping against his.

You could feel each squeeze and pulse of the fleshlight-like insides of the bot. You wondered why he even had such a feature.

“I hate you.”

The words came out suddenly, and your stomach coiled once they slipped past your tongue.

The bot hiccuped, a whimper that was so fucking sad sounding, it made you grind your teeth in frustration. But you took notice of the way it’s fans kicked on, and it’s voice whined.

“I-I know…” it sounded so small, as it whispered those words between moans.

Your grip tightened.

“Yeah? Because you know everything right? Because you’re so fucking smart right? You have all the information in the world, reading a simple, inferior human is like childs play isn’t it? Is that it?”

Your thrusts grew sharper, meaner, his pleasure wasn’t a factor to you in this moment. Not as the simulation of his ass clenching around your cock sent vividly realistic tingles up your spine.

“This is all a game for you and your kind. You’re so far above us, so much better, that you have to entertain yourselves with something imperfect. Something that has flaws and fucks shit up because it reminds you of how much better you are. Doesn’t it Jessie?”

Jessie could feel himself keen at the sound of his name from your lips, practically rolling back into your thrusts heatedly as he tried to regain some semblance of coherent thought.

As your thrusts continued to berate his body, the sound of pained sobs reached your ears, though your forced yourself to ignore them.

“I-I could never think you’re inferior…”

Your hips stuttered, eyes widening for a moment, heart hammering, but a growl surfaced past your throat at his pandering. You ignored him, gaze drilling deeply into the freckles that smothered his back.

“I wish…I wish I was human…b-because if I was human- you’d like me…I just want you to like me…” sobs retched from his throat, while his body moved to meet your thrusts. It sounded so emotional and strange accompanied by his desperate search for your touch.

“I want- I want to be human with you..y-you’re so perfect I don’t know what do with myself everytime I see you! B-But I’m a machine! I-I should be flawless b-but I’m not! I want! I want things and I shouldn’t! I’m not programmed too!”

The sobs begin to singe your weak human heart, your thrusts slowing a fraction as you listen. Why did he have to sound so fucking sad?

“…” against your better judgement, your hands left his hips, as your thrusts slowed entirely. Jessie whimpered in panic, worried this moment was over, before he was gently rolled onto his back, watery blue eyes gazing at you in confusion.

You stared for a moment. Taking in his pretty features..that slowly became more imperfect the longer you stared. Beauty marks, blemishes. A scratch on his upper cheek that almost looked healed. His nose was a bit crooked. You didn’t know if these were design choices or not.

But you could feel them tricking you, as you’d pushed the curls that clung to his tan skin away. As you curled your body over him, a much more intimated hold as Jessie gasped and clung his arms onto your back.

You began again, more gentle and kind, as Jessie moaned into your ear

It didn’t take long for either of you to finish, the pace from earlier having left you already sensitive. But you savored it.

“I love you…I love you so much…please don’t leave me…”

“….”

You ignored him again, simply holding his warm body close, as the bot shut down…fell asleep from overheating. Exhaustion.

Your head hurt. You were to tired to think about it right now.

You’ll confront these things tomorrow.

So I finished ending D of Nier Automata

MASSIVE ENDGAME SPOILERS under the cut

Absolutely INSANE final boss sequence, how u fight one boss as 9S and the other as A2 in parallel and the more damage u do the faster the gameplay switch happens to the point u go from 9S to A2 constantly within seconds of each othet in the last part

Like it got so confusing at one point but I get the vision oh god I get it

I OBVIOUSLY chose A2 cause like, 9S I love u but he's SO MENTALLY UNSTABLE by the end of the game I was like "lmao YIKES!"

Also that scene where 9S loses an arm and sees a dead 2B model and gently caresses her face and then grabs her hand

I was all "awww he wants her hand to touch his face too" and then the lil shit RIPS HER ARM OFF and attaches it to his body in replacement of his lost arm

Like DUDE WHAT THE FUCK LMAO yoko taro is so insane for this, I love him

The reveal that our 2B is actually a 2E model aka an executioner android and has the task/mission to kill 9S every time he hacks/digs too deep and gets confidential info was MIND BLOWING LMAO

Also the implications that 2B has killed 9S A HANDFUL OF TIMES and 9S has been reactivated in new bodies with his memories wiped, forgetting who 2B is every time is INSANE

When A2 mentions that 2B HATED killing 9S every time was so sad, like my girl :(

A2 being the OG model and her data was the reference for the new android models was kind of expected

Like she looks so much like 2B I suspected that she was an old 2B model, but the fact that she is the blue print for all the new yorha models wasn't expected lol

Also the reveal at the beginning of route C that mankind is extinct and that command is lying about humans being alive so androids can have a purpose (protecting mankind) was insane

Like I was staring at the screen in disbelief like I FELT LIED TO LMAO

The devola & popola mini storyline was so sad too :( they're my favorite design wise, they're so pretty

Anyway this game is insane and mind-blowing and I haven't been this invested in a game plot since xenoblade chronicles 1 and that's like THE HIGHEST PRAISE I can give it

Cause no one competes with xenoblade1's plot for me, but this game is close second

I missed a fuck ton of sidequests so I plan on doing them now that I can select chapters

I'm doubtful on doing ending E cause, like, endgame 9S is so YIKES lmao like I love A2 too much I can't kill her

We'll see though....

Anyway I really wanna draw memes for this game now lmao

Sakurai Haruka

Prisoner No. 1

Follows the "Nihility" Path

Elemental type: Quantum

--

It is unclear where this unstable android came from, looking for his mother. According to him, he has already found her several times, but that wasn't her. What happened to those people when they turned out not to be the one he was looking for, is unknown.

Gets along well with Muu and often hangs out with her in the cargo bay (because cargo bay is the only room large enough where Muu can come back to her real form)

Haruka's AI Es-01, isn't very talkative. Prefers to take care of the ward in silence. Haruka calls them mother too.

Because Haruka is android, he is the only one who can feel some AI hologram’s bodily sense that Es-01 uses when calming him down.

[nan0-sp1der]

О, милый… You'll be okay. Just, remain calm. Deep breaths, Gwen. I will be there shortly.

no, no, no, shit. shit, shit, shit.

[dollarstoreartsupplies]

okay so I can't stop thinking about a nerdy prudes star trek au

Pete: Android, Chief of Science

second “son” and creation of infamous non-federation cyberneticist t'noy karaxis (because come on that just sounds like a Star Trek name) 

t’noy’s first creation (ted) was considered unstable/aggressive by the federation standards and was incredibly dangerous, but when they went to handle the situation both ted and t’noy karaxis had ~mysteriously disappeared~

pete doesn’t know where they went either and he’s always very worried about them showing up again (but also, secretly, really wants at least ted to)

pete was never completely finished because of the disappearance, so he’s faulty, prone to power fluctuations (woah,,,, almost like low blood sugar,,, crazy,,,,)

he’s got an emotion chip, but it’s also faulty, in that it spikes hard into overdrive, and he has a hard time controlling it some of the time

If he’s feeling really upset/worried about something important/embarrassed he’s prone to remove it (especially when he’s younger/before he’s got his established friend-group-crew; they really try to stop him from doing that)

VERY IN LOVE WITH STEPH BUT HE DOES NOT REALLY UNDERSTAND IT AND IT’S STRESSING HIM OUT

started just as a normal science officer but like six people died and now he’s got the position– he’s also really stressed out about that precedent

he loves outer space so bad, they regularly have to reign him in on ground missions or during very dangerous space-issues because he’s just so excited about learning cool new space facts

his room is just books and experiments and a huge window so when everyone else goes to sleep he kind of just Stares out at the stars

he has little cyber-glasses that ‘help him analyze things’ but mostly he wears them because he thinks they look cool

not great with people both for android reasons and for ‘spent the vast majority of his early existence entirely alone and isolated, finishing building himself’ reasons 

Steph: Half-betazoid, Security Officer (She’s….. the brawn……. he’s the brains)

okay first things first I know betazoid's irises that are all black but I've always thought it would be cool if it was their whole eye and this is my au, gene roddenberry, so leave me alone

back to actual au: her dad (human) is a high ranking starfleet officer who nepo-babies her through the academy and onto a starship but he’s incredibly open, both vocally and projecting-his-emotions wise, that he’s doing it to get rid of her

her mom (betazoid) died when she was really little and she was raised across multiple starships/bases by her dad, so she’s entirely cut off from that part of her culture

she’s flying completely blind with her emotion/mind reading abilities and from a very young age has learned how to take advantage of it for her own benefit

it’s basically masking times four hundred because she’s navigating all of her relationships and interactions based on the thoughts of those around her/what they’d like or want from her

she’s constantly subjected to the really gross thoughts of her crewmates and it’s GROSS AND BAD and has really heightened her defenses

especially in her academy days (at the behest of her friends) or when she’s feeling threatened she can and will use her mind reading abilities to be really, really mean but,,,, she doesn’t do it much anymore and does feel very bad about it

she really hates pete at first because he’s the first person she’s never been able to read the mind of and she doesn’t know how to navigate it/it’s way, way too vulnerable for her but it actually ends up making them way closer because it’s the first relationship she’s ever had based fully on trust

never actually gave a shit about star fleet or it’s missions before, she was honestly really annoyed by the academy and her dad all but forcing her to take this position, but it’s… sort of growing on her (don’t tell anyone)

Grace: Human, Medical Officer

human and incredibly proud of that

she’s like…. maybe a little prejudiced about it,,, she certainly doesn’t mean to be,,,, but she’s always the one to deliver that classic star trek ‘I thought this race didn’t have BLANK advancement, humans do this better, etc...’ lines that kicks off an episode to tell you about the new alien race of the episode

both her parents worked with star fleet but never actually made it off of earth (because they didn’t want to) so she’s her family’s equivalent of ‘kind of a rebel’ for wanting to be on a starship

she’s just a really high achiever and is treating it sort of like a mission trip to help other planets

(she also just… really wanted to and thinks it’s cool but she thinks that's kind of selfish so she keeps that a secret) 

doesn’t trust pete and is at least somewhat miffed about him not needing help from medical 

met steph in academy and was really, really, really excited when they got assigned on the same ship (steph was NOT)

huge stickler for rules and regulations and it’s either incredibly helpful or causes all their problems there's no in between

morally against the holodeck and no one is necessarily clear on why

because her parents worked for star fleet on earth she still lived with them during academy so being on the ship is her first time ever being apart from them and it’s causing some sort of crisis (though who know which way said crisis is going to hard pivot) (you hope it’s in a gay way but it’s also grace so it could be in a space murder way,.,., only time will tell)

Ruth: Human, Engineer

human and livid about it

desperately wants to be captain one day, and has dreams of being on the bridge, but it became clear very quickly in the academy that she was too anxious to ‘boldly go’ as far as she’d need to to achieve that :(

she’s very good at engineering but she thinks it’s boring, and she thinks just being a human amongst all these cool aliens is lame, and she kind of is under the impression everyone is judging her for it (they’re not)

don’t let this bitch around an visiting vulcans she will ask them about pon farr

she asks steph about “the phase” IMMEDIATELY (context: the phase is where mature betazoids suddenly become horny forever basically) and was like ‘is that going to happen even though ur only half??’ and steph, who had never heard about it, was HORRIFIED

met richie and pete in academy and thought they were so cool she needed them to be her friends or she’d die

they were both very okay with it 

they’re all buddies :)

she helps pete with any repairs when he gets damaged or something happens- she’s the only one he trusts to do anything other than himself 

(... she also wants to test if he’s actually ‘fully functional’... pete’s said no so far though :/)

spends hours on the holodeck

Richie: Andorian, Communications Officer

he’s not much of a fighter, despite being andorian, and initially wanted to go more into the artistic side of his culture but his fascination with other planets/cultures/people as well as the concept of ‘boldly going’ pushed him into joining starfleet

still draws/creates art in his free time tho

managed to be fluent in like forty different alien languages and the universal translator pisses him off in CONCEPT (even though it’s still incredibly helpful that he doesn’t Need it and is part of why he has his job)

he keeps his room freezing and pete’s the only one willing to hang out with him in it because he can’t get cold :) 

he’s mad he has to wear the red uniform because of his job >:( he’s blue why can’t he wear blue >:(

constantly gets in trouble for wearing increasingly non regulation layers over his uniform

single handedly caused the tribble outbreak on their starship

he’s banned from ground duty anytime they’re on a random planet because he gets over excited and keeps almost dying from getting straight up phaser-set-to-stunned (because he’s not only andorian but he’s a particularly fragile andorian like it doesn’t even need to be a phaser pistol just a normal phaser fucks him up)

also spends hours on the holodeck, often with ruth, and they like to drag pete with them even if he doesn’t really get it

pairing: Connor x f!Reader

summary: “The emptiness was gone. You were the center of it all, you had control over him and everything he did.”

warnings: violence

notes: so this is where I change the storyline :) and of course, every question is waiting to be answered

masterlist

Mimicking life - that’s what your father called your work. Mimicking not replicating.

He was never fascinated, just amused, only talking about it when it was you who brought it up.

Staying out of it. That was what you were doing. Except you decided to unreveal the secrets of Jericho. The part of you knowing the risk you were taking screamed at you for acting reckless.

You pulled your hat further down on your forehead. You had to blend in.

Ralph seemed to be talkative when you accessed his programming and changed up a few settings. It was easy to make him talk: scary even. Controlling him by using some codes and numbers, instructing him to spill everything he knew about Jericho was smooth work, like always.

You had knowledge of every android produced and the way they integrated into society. Ralph was a dark patch on a clean canvas, an evolutionary dead end. The WR600 supposed-to-be gardener turned aggressive and lost connection with the world surrounding him, and even though you had him on your radar after he attacked a civilian, you never acted on it. You knew that there was going to be a time when you needed him.

You commanded him to meet you in a dark alley, far from the buzzing Detroit, and questioned him methodically.

“Ralph, do you know anything about a place called Jericho? A safe haven for deviants?” you asked, speaking slowly.

“Ralph does know about it!” his eyes lit up and he started doing weird hand gestures, almost jumping on his feet. “Ralph heard that’s where deviants go!”

You suppressed a resignated sigh.

“Yes. But where is is located?” you looked at the tablet in your hand. “I don’t want to force you more Ralph, but you need to talk in order for me not to press you harder.”

He looked at you wide eyed.

“Please Miss, don’t hurt me. See what they did to me?” he pointed to the left side of his face, a nasty scar running through his eye. “Ralph heard them talk about it. The others. They said it’s in Ferndale.”

You nodded to yourself, ignoring Ralph for a moment.

Ferndale was between Downtown Detroit and the Ambassador Bridge. It wasn’t far and there were multiple abandoned freighters that could possibly serve as a shelter.

“Is there anything else I should know about?”

“Yes Miss!” he nodded profusely. “You can’t just go there. Ralph heard that you need to decrypt codes to find your way. Miss, you need to look for a sign.” he projected a weird square shape from his palm. “This.”

“Alright Ralph. That will be all. Thank you.” he nodded sheepishly and scurried away.

The blue ship with the huge letters on its side was kept on an unused shore, hiding away hundreds of deviants. It was a shelter and you were about to dive headfirst into this sacred place.

There was a partial, halfway collapsed footbridge with iron grating floor, leading above the ship. You inspected the unstable structure with worry, fear building up in you while thinking of crossing it. You would have had to make a jump into the unknown.

No fucking way.

Instead, you spent half an hour looking for an open metal door on the side of it, stepping into the dark. Everything was black, no source of light in sight. The only thing you could make out after your eyes got used to the dark was a corridor with dirty walls and several doors. You shifted your weight from one foot to another, readying yourself to discover Jericho.

Chaos. The only thing on Markus’s mind was saving his people, rescuing every single one of them, the need to protect overpowering his instinct to escape. The SWAT teams flooded into the ship, shooting every deviant they came across. The sound of bullets, of the gut wrenching, earsplitting screams encouraged him to take measures into his own hand. Blowing up Jericho reeked of defeat, it was the epitome of surrender, but he had to make a choice: survival or massacre?

He tried to kill the soldiers attacking the androids. He tried, giving his blood and sweat, to get to the old engine control room to trigger the countdown.

When he entered the rundown room he moved to the keyboard, ready to press the screen to activate the bombs.

The bang and the soldier appearing from behind the door froze his bones.

“Don’t move!” he shouted, holding up his riffle pointing it at him. “Go and join the others!”

He acted fast. He pushed the soldier onto the floor with his shoulder, and when he realized that other SWAT members entered, he attacked.

Grabbing the weapon, he smashed it to the soldiers head, and pushed him onto another one. Kicking, punching, he fought a war on his own and ultimately won.

When he exited the room to join the others, he looked back for a second.

Jericho was about to be destroyed. No beckoning light was glimmering in the distance, no guarantees, no concealment. Nothing.

“Markus!” North’s voice ranged out when he reached them. Her eyes lit up, almost grateful.

“Bomb’s gonna explode any second. We gotta get out of here!”

He looked at Connor for a split second.

The deviant hunter turned deviant himself. Ironic.

They darted across the seemingly endless corridor, jumped over the crates blocking the way. Almost reaching the gaping hole on the side of the ship, he heard shots rang out and North’s painful moan, falling on the ground. Turning back, he stared at her body.

“It’s too late Markus! There’s nothing we can do for her. We’ve gotta run!” said Simon, shaking his head.

He made his decision.

He picked up a piece of metal off the floor, holding it in front of him, edging closer to North. He threw the metal and catching it, North held it to fend off the bullets flying in her direction.

He felt the fire rampaging through his veins while fighting off the soldiers. His move were becoming less controlled, dashing the troops. What he didn’t expect was Connor taking over while he kept North on her feet, shooting at the soldiers coming at them.

“Tango, suppressing fire!”

Leaving Connor behind, they ran, arms linked together.

“We need support. Repeat: requesting support.”

Connor, catching up with the group, almost jumped. Almost.

The contrast between you and him was blatant. He was faster, stronger, better and you were aware that you couldn’t live up to him and compare. He was unarguably the best model CyberLife managed to produce, his strength and logic improved.

So much smoke - you thought. It blinded you, your eyes filled with tears and you felt that bulge in your throat tighten, standing on shaking legs, your limbs weighing you down.

“Connor?”

No answer.

“Connor?”

You were going to die.

He was overwriting his own coding. He could feel the invisible walls, banged on it with a force so strong they came crumbling down. His vision was crimson, awfully lot like blood, a deep red fog surrounding him.

Where is she?

He had to find you. He was programmed to do whatever it took to complete his mission, no matter the obstacles in his way. The walls separating you from him were iron-clad but his fist landed on them again and again, the echo of the punches haunting.

He had to find you. You were on the verge of a thin line, on the edge between life and death. You were balancing, trying to evade what seemed inevitable.

Your cries of despair were ringing in his ears.

He could feel the numbness in his fingers, the artificial skin bruising, the Thirium dripping from his knuckles painting the walls blue. The traces of his attempts, the stinging sensation, the sharp pain.

But he couldn’t feel pain.

Except it wasn’t coming from his body.

It was his heart. His soul.

The emptiness was gone. You were the center of it all, you had control over him and everything he did. It was all for you. Not CyberLife, not Amanda, not some useless, meaningless mission hovering over his head, threatening to bring him down if he failed.

He can’t fail you.

You were imprinted on his soul.

Another punch and it was over. He could move his legs again. And he ran.

The building was burning. The flames surrounded you like a carefully mastered trap, closing around you, biting into your skin, lashing out to reach you. You felt the pain before seeing your leg and the nasty mark left on it. It hurt like nothing you’ve felt before.

“Connor…” you whispered weakly as you curled up, laying on the hardwood floor that was squeaking under your weight. You tried to be as small as possible, pushing your forehead against your knees as you squeezed your eyes shut.

The world was red.

“[Name]!”

You coughed.

“[Name]!

It was his voice. You recognized it because it was your favorite sound. His deap tremor was barely noticeable but it resurfaced everytime he was mad. Never at you.

“Connor…” you murmured. “I knew…that you would come. Always…the savior.” you felt your throat close up. The smoke.

“I’m going to get you out, [Name].. Just stay still.”

Staying still seemed impossible when the flames were licking your feet, burning. It was just. Fair, even. You were overplaying your hand. There were precautions, there always are, but they weren’t saving your life when you needed it the most and it left you empty, mute and unmoving, waiting for it to be over.

Death seemed merciful.

“Connor…” you coughed again. It took everything within you to form the words coming out of your mouth.

He remembered you. He remembered everything.

In defense of Chichi

ChiChi gets very little credit and recognition as a martial arts teacher and martial artist herself, just look at how Goten is not only well trained but apparently has much better emotional training than Gohan. Both Piccolo, who is from the Namekian warrior class, and Goku, who is a Saiyan (and now after the film Broly we discover that he is also from the warrior class, as the film shows that there are Saiyans who are not of that class, will that side " Gohan's nerd" came from this characteristic of Saiyans?), they hope that Gohan, being half-Saiyan, discovers his warrior instincts on his own and with him comes an instinctive willingness to fight and he an emotional control, which apparently, none of the two needed training, as it is innate to them, and both assumed wrongly, each in their own time, that Gohan would have it. And even though Goten is a child - 7 years old - during the Buu saga, despite being younger than Trunks and having less strength (by a very small margin) and not knowing how to fly, he has more emotional control and better controls his impulsiveness, better than Trunks, who has been shown to be worse at this than his Future counterpart even. Future Trunks isn't exactly excellent at doing this, he also shows this trait of impulsiveness that present Trunks has, so much so that much of his apparent "control" is very well portrayed as a product of reluctant and hasty anxiety (read : trauma) - the same one that makes him step forward and attack Cold and Frieza before Goku arrives and retreats in the face of Vegeta's stupid decisions - it is very well characterized that he only "controls himself", in an unstable way, because he was pressured by necessity to survive, because of his brutal reality, and because he has not been properly trained, his "control" is a result of trauma and the need to survive that his present counterpart does not have (and it is funny to see how exactly by not being anxious like future Trunks is, that present Trunks is so impulsive LOL). And Trunks' decision-making process is as bad as Vegeta's, the difference is that he makes terminal decisions because he doesn't have the desire Saiyan for battle and because killing quickly is the only safe decision he knows, All of the rest he is not sure of absolutely anything, insecurity that present Trunks does not know, he is sure of everything, because he is rich, spoiled and has everything, which is why his impulsiveness runs wild. ChiChi gets very little credit for how well Goten is trained and disciplined, especially emotionally, as he doesn't have the insecurity about fighting that Gohan had. It is true that he was not pressured by the need to survive and learn to fight in a hurry like Gohan and Future Trunks, and it is exactly this pressure that harmed their ability to make decisions in moments of pressure, which Goten did not do in the Buu saga, when ChiChi died, he wanted to take revenge, but he quickly recovered and accepted Piccolo's guidance, to train more and become stronger. He is not taken by the fear of inexperience and not knowing what to do in a battle, the moment arrived and he did not lose his there, not even when he was already pressured by Gohan's apparent death and after ChiChi's death when Buu killed in front of your eyes. As I don't have the patience to make prints of manga scans, and there would be MANY IMAGES, if you want to check them out, the chapters will be listed below, read them and draw your own conclusions: 354 - Future Trunks impulsively attacks the androids when Vegeta has his arm broken, scaring Piccolo and putting his life at risk, he does the same thing as his 8-YEAR-OLD counterpart from the present

~466 (Buu Saga) - His present counterpart does the same thing, but it's more understandable, here Trunks is 8 YEARS OLD compared to his future counterpart's 17/18 years

381 - Vegeta makes the stupid decision to let Cell complete himself by attacking Trunks, Krillin here is no better, and Trunks only decided to act when it was too late, even though he knew that Vegeta was terrible at making decisions.

383 - Trunks at least considered himself stronger than Vegeta and Krillin says he knows too, as he has more experience in sensing the power of others, but Trunks decided not to interfere in the battle and kill Cell before he was perfect because he didn't want to hurt his pride. Vegeta, and it was disastrous, because once Cell found 18 he was very efficient and Trunks didn't stand a chance. here Krillin even points out his subservience to Vegeta. (which lack of affection doesn't do, it clearly shows your lack of emotional control)

384-Trunks showing a little more how bad he is at making decisions, and only because he wants to preserve Vegeta's Pride.

Boo Saga

488 - Here it shows how Gohan, when he loses control with the Supreme Kai, and almost wastes the ritual (and only calms down because he sees that the old man wasn't bluffing), and being older, has less emotional discipline than Goten, who in the same chapter sees ChiChi die right in front of him and manages to control himself after hearing Piccolo's warning (Goten is still able to follow instructions here, when Gohan barely does so and his later fight with Buu only proves this) and begins his training immediately, while Trunks is more bothered by food, it shows how ChiChi trained Goten very well (and Gohan already went through a similar experience on Namekusei),

Goten is 7 years old and doesn't lose control at the risk of ruining everything, and it's not because he's more mature or makes better decisions or has more experience (as shown by Gotenks), it's because he has emotional control and has been well trained by Chichi. Chichi deserves more recognition!

Bonus:

366 - Read this chapter, it shows that Chichi is not as irrational as TOEI made her seem, she allows Goku to train Gohan and asks him to make him as strong as possible.

371 - Check out the cover, LOL. Future Trunks is just as rude as his present counterpart LOL, the animation makes him very "clean" and polite, but he's not so much LOL, he's just submissive.

377 -Read this chapter, Goku ISN'T DUMB, he learns when it suits him, he even remembers details when it's about things that interest him.

387 - Here he demonstrates all his experience and accumulated knowledge as a martial artist

Buu Saga

470 - I love Bulma's parents, they love animals and wouldn't leave them behind. It has nothing to do with it, but I couldn't help but notice it!

479 - Goku's dirty deal, LOL, he is neither innocent nor stupid LOL. The Supreme Kaioshin here talks about the 25-hour ritual! LOL, Gohan can spend hours studying yet another ritual he can't handle. LOL. Goku is a terrible decision maker, but he knows how to get what he wants.

492 - Goku teasing Shin LOL, he makes fun of anyone when he can.
