Interesting development in Detroit: Become Anxious: I managed to keep Connor alive until the television station investigation, where he threw himself on Hank and took a bunch of bullets for him.

In the playthrough I watched, Connor died very early on, well before Hank developed any fondness for him, and was reuploaded into a new body. Hank knew almost from the start that Connor's body was replaceable. In my playthrough, Hank's had time to bond with Connor. And Connor just died, physically shielding him. And Hank has no idea Connor's going to be back the next day.

That has got to fuck Hank up and I'm very excited about how awful it is.

I've been looking for fanfiction inspiration, and I'm tempted to try to write something about this, but I'm not sure where to go with it. 'Hank dwells on Connor's death and then meets him the next day' doesn't seem like it has enough substance on its own (even for me, and I've never had particularly high standards for substance in the things I write). 'Hank gets fucked up over Connor's death, meets him the next day and deals by just killing him again, goddammit' is interesting but possibly strays too far towards a fic concept I've already written.

...okay, I typed that and then immediately went off and wrote a fic.
