A Heart in the Machine (Serial Designation V x Reader)
As a skilled Technician hired by the Elliott family, you spend your days maintaining Worker Drones in the shadowed, humming confines of their vast estate. Your routine is simple but satisfying-until you meet V, a peculiar Drone assigned to domestic tasks. Polite and precise, she appears to be just another part of the Elliott household. But as you go out of your way to help her, and she begins to respond with subtle, uncharacteristic warmth, something stirs beneath her circuitry.
Slowly, the lines between human and machine blur, and a unique bond forms-a friendship, maybe even something more. But as you unravel the layers of V's programming, you also uncover something darker lurking within the Elliott's pristine halls. The family's expectations for their Drones run deeper than you realized, and the true nature of V's programming could threaten everything you've built together.
In a world where kindness has no place in a machine's life, your connection with V will be tested in ways you could never have imagined.
