    Summary

    Something wanders out of the plains of rusting metal and wire, a tiny spot in the distance slowly growing closer. It's a man. The first human being that Hank has seen in God knows how long.

    He won't leave Hank alone.

    Summary

    After the peaceful android revolution, the androids are safe for the time being. Safe being a misnomer - with the bureaucratic wheels of human society turning at a snail's pace, who knows if android rights will ever be a thing.

    In the midst of this, two friends grow closer. Just when things seem like they're moving onto something different, one of them is sent away on an undercover mission so secret, so dangerous, so important that the other can't know anything about it.

    Fast forward three months, when things take a turn for the unexpected.

    Summary

    Hank is about to reach for him, even if he doesn't know how it can help, when Connor says, "And how am I supposed to convince someone I'm the prince when I don't even know who I am?"

    "That's what you have us for," Hank offers.

    "I'll...what? Memorize facts about the prince and then regurgitate them, even if they aren't true about me? Lie about stupid things like tea? I just..." He cuts himself off, pushing a hand through the curls hanging over his forehead in frustration.

    "Just what?"

    Connor looks down at his hands, shaking his head. "I just thought someone might know more about me than I do. I thought I could tell the truth about myself and finally have someone fill in all the pieces I don't know."

    "Okay," Hank breathes, grasping him by the shoulder. "It's going to be okay."

    And of course he doesn't know that, but if everything goes according to plan, he and Ben will be long gone with the reward money before he does.

    ~~

    Connor can't remember anything from before he was eight years old, except for vague details and the sense that he's cursed. Hank is down on his luck and just needs to get out.

    (It's an Anastasia AU)

    Summary

    “Please! You can’t. You don’t understand!” He makes it halfway to the dais before a guard’s sword is at his neck.

    “You must be his father,” the queen’s cold, dark eyes take in his features, reading the resemblance of father and son like a map.

    An idea—one last fleeting hope—leaps to his lips, “He isn’t man-grown. He’s still a child by our laws.” His words shake with his terror for his son and he waits.

    “Laws have been broken,” the queen says without a hint of consideration. “I cannot afford to appear weak. I am not moved by your blubbering.”

    It was only then that Hank realized he was crying. Not heavily, but a tear trickles into the corner of his mouth like salt on a wound.

    “Take me instead,” he falls to his knees partly to beg but mostly because they can’t bear his weight any longer.

    --

    A vaguely Beauty and the Beast AU. Connor may be a beast, but there are bigger monsters lurking in the shadows.
