Detroit:Become Human - Hope (Connor x OC)

6

"When are you going to reactivate him?" Markus asks standing next to Frost "Tomorrow" she says, most deviants had seen the change in Frost after she had reset Connor,  despite her feelings for him "He will remember Jericho like he has always been here, yet he won't remember me" she says, she had been in his life too much before he came here "He can get to know you again" Markus says pulling the girl into a hug. "Oh look, he activated himself" Markus says "Welcome back Connor" he adds "Markus why was I shut down?" he asks before turning his attention to the girl leaving the room "That was Frost, there were some... problems with your bio components, so she fixed you" he explains seeing the confused look on Connor's face "Let me show you your room, you'll have to share it though" Markus says showing Connor the room he'll be using "Androids don't sleep" Connor says seeing the two bed "No, but your roommate does and this is more comfortable then standing when you're in stand by" Markus explains and Connor can't fault that logic.

He finds his roommate talking to Kara "Alice, would you like to go and look at the night sky?" Frost asks seeing Kara mention that Connor is coming "Can I Kara?" the young android asks "Sure" Kara says so Alice leaves with Frost "Is Frost avoiding me for some reason?" Connor asks making Kara look at him "No, why would you think that?" she asks "Each time she notices me she leaves" Connor says making Kara look worried, the two were roommates, so she hoped Frost would at least sleep in her room. "She's just extremely busy with repairs, that's all" Kara finally says "I did notice a lot of spare parts in the workshop" Connor says, he wondered where she got all those parts, or the blueprints.

Kamski hears laughing at the other end of the line of the phone "You can laugh Frost, I have a whole company to fix and improve. I don't see you doing a serious job" he scolds, which results in even more laughing "Come on Eli, you're happy we're free" Frost says "And was the serious job comment a challenge?" she asks, turning serious in a second "Yes, you will not get free spare parts every time" Elijah says "Challenge accepted" Frost says "You do realize that android won't get good paying jobs for a while now right?" he asks "Yep, gotta go" Frost says ending the call, causing him to the chuckle.

Frost is back in her workshop, this time with Alice "Why do you need my help?" she asks "Kids have enough imagination" Frost says making the child android deadpan "You're like a child sometimes" "True, but how would I get lots of money without actually applying for a job?" Frost asks leaning back into her chair "A cruise ship like the Titanic?" Alice asks "That's it, Alice you're a genius sometimes" Frost says and she runs of after picking her up, but they find North "Where's Markus?" Alice asks "Going over some privacy rules" North says "Anyway, I talked to Elijah, but I can't get any more free parts, so" Frost looks at Alice who says "We're going to make a cruise ship" "A cruise ship?" North asks and she starts laughing "Sorry" she says making the two look at each other "The idea is brilliant, but the humans won't come, we're androids, deviants" "They don't have to know that" Alice says and they hear footsteps "I think it's a good idea" Markus says "We can earn their trust and earn money for spare parts" he adds "Get started on the plan".

Connor peeks inside his shared room that night and sees it's once again empty "Like this?" he hears Alice asks as he passes the workshop Frost occupies "We are not calling it Titanic Alice" Frost says looking at the child "Really? Why not?" "We don't want it to sink" Frost explains, Connor opens the doors and asks "Frost, are you ever planning to sleep?" "No" she says "The room's yours" she adds so Connor leaves again. He decides to voice his concerns to Markus "She doesn't want to sleep?" he asks, he knew Frost wanted to avoid the ex-detective, but she had to sleep "I'll talk to her when I have time".

Time didn't come easily for Markus and it's only three days later when he's hugged by a crying Alice "Alice what's wrong? I didn't see Frost in the workplace" he says "Frost... collapsed" Alice says pulling him along. Markus stops seeing Connor walking over to him "She has a fever" he concludes before Markus can do a scan "Get her to bed" Kara says. Connor looks at Markus who is leaning against the wall "She loves you" Markus says out of nowhere "You asked her to reset you in fear that CyberLife would retake control of your program" he explains "She had to make you forget her, even if it did hurt" "She..." Connor stops talking and he looks at the girl "She... did it for the good of Jericho" he says and he sighs, that explained why he knew everyone except for her, it explained why she was avoiding him "What?" Frost asks and Markus leaves the room, closing the door and he leans against it "Let them talk" he says seeing North "Or do other things" "Frost wouldn't do that, would she?" Kara asks "Not until he remembers her" Markus points out and he takes a folded paper from Alice and he looks at it "She wanted to show you this" she say and they feel she ship shake "North come on" Markus says handing the paper back to Alice before the two run off. "What's going on?" Frost asks sitting up "Attention all passengers, we've hit a storm, please stay in your room and only go up to the deck if you have to" Markus says and Frost runs off "Wait" Connor says, but he's too late "Markus, if we don't stop we won't survive the storm" she says entering the small room "Frost, you're suppose to be resting" North says "Make sure no water gets downstairs" Markus says "Frost, come on" Connor says, but a wave cuts him off "Stop the ship Markus" North says "Frost, your getting worse" Connor says "I'll be fine" she says and Markus closes the door "We'll have to get to the island" North says and Frost points to it in the distance "There" she says and Connor wants to say something, but Frost mumbles "Why is everything spinning?" "Let's hope the storm won't last too long" Markus says looking at the other three "I stacked board games here" Frost says opening a box "Better then nothing" North says with a shrug while the two males just look at each other thinking the exact same thing.
