    Summary

    Moving to Red Grave was a weird decision. I can't tell what's stranger, though- the rampent demon attacks happening down the block, or the weirdo who always shows up to fix it.

    Or: a bunch of loosely connected meetings with Vergil.

    Summary

    Daigo wanted a drink, a cigarette, maybe something more. He wanted hands on him that weren't professionally impersonal, that poked and prodded him for something other than tests and examinations.

    Summary

    It was the context, at the end of the day. Something that, yes, Hank would never understand or relate to, because it was intrinsic to the nature of androids and their deviancy. To shed the illusion of humanity, to dissimilate from what they’d been built for and touch their barest parts together, to be flooded with information and memories and emotions of the other person, feeling their touch so much more intensely than they would’ve through their skin—and to then do it for no purpose placed onto them by humans, not completing transactions or similar things, but to just be with each other, sharing connection despite the coding that didn’t allow it, despite the society that didn’t understand it… it was that, Connor had said. Not the act itself, but everything around it. The warmth of someone else’s presence in one’s mind, the history behind it all, the fact that this type of intimacy proved that they were alive, that they could feel connection. The implications, the despite, despite, despite.

    Or: Hank and his journey to understand android interfacing.
