Blushing Pearl

Aurelia Pearl Alvarez is a CSI Officer at the DPD. After battling her demons from her previous abusive relationship, she suddenly finds herself pining for an unexpected co-worker: Connor, an android sent by Cyberlife. Originally, she was solely focusing on domestic violence cases. Still, the recent upsurge in deviancy forced the two to keep close as they work together to handle evidence for the recent upsurge in deviant cases. Aurelia finds it challenging to keep her emotions to herself. At the same time, Connor begins to deviate from his intended programming as he starts to 'want' and 'need' the attention and praise from Aurelia.

This read has explicit language, self-deprecating humor, and jokes about suicide, and possibly more as it updates. If that's not your cup of tea, this is not for you.
