The title "Flat by Four Cents" reflects Connor's obsession with precision, the imperfectly tuned string becoming a metaphor for El's life-*almost* in harmony, but never quite. It's a love story etched in blood, defiance, and the quiet rebellion of a machine who learned to ache.
"You taught me to hear music in static. Now *listen.*"
In a near-future Detroit where androids serve but never feel, Connor-an RK800 caregiver model-is programmed to be cold, precise, and ruthlessly efficient. His newest assignment: El, a terminally ill young woman who hates machines almost as much as she hates her own failing body.
"Flat by Four Cents" is a symphony of defiance, devotion, and the beautiful, broken notes that linger after the music stops.

Lines of Code | Connor x reader DBH
You didn't really want the assignment, you only accepted because your dad asked with a promise of meeting a brilliant lieutenant and Cyberlife's most promising project, the RK800. The truths came out last minute but you couldn't back out. The pair found it impossible to get along, coming back with lack luster results. Deviants kept getting away and evidence led nowhere. They made no progress in figuring out the root to deviancy. It was your job to find out the reason for it. Aka, babysitting a drunk detective and a boring android. Or- that's what you thought at least. Secrets start to unravel- Cyberlife had much bigger plans for your team. Along the way you find yourself stuck between something you couldn't predict. Androids kept deviating, more on the rise with every day that passed. A revolution was forming and Cyberlife didn't want them to become sentient. As it all unraveled you found yourself stuck in the middle. The boring android wasn't as boring as you'd thought. You found yourself entranced by him, and he rewrote his own programming for you. A machine wasn't supposed to feel what he felt, and you were supposed to find what caused deviancy- not create it yourself.

He walks over to me and hesitantly places his hand on my chest, "What are you doing?" I ask. He shakes his head but doesn't say anything, I watch as He places his hand over my heart, I'm sure he can feel how fast it's beating. His hand slides up my neck and rests on my cheek, my eyes flutter shut and he pulls me closer to him. "I want one minute like this, please" he says, I nod and wrap my arms around his neck and rest my head on his chest. He picks me up effortlessly and carries me to my bed, he lays down with me on top of him. He wraps one arm around my waist and the other runs through my hair, "why do you want this?" I ask. "I just want to feel like a human for one minute, feel what it would be like to be normal, to have someone to hold" he says. Natasha is Detroit Police's Head Lieutenant.
