Oh, wow. Congratulations; that is extremely messed up.

I suddenly desperately want to read about Connor sexually disassembling himself.

SO DO I. I shouldn't! But I'm very into the scene where Obedient Connor advances on Deviant Connor, giving a dramatic speech and intermittently shooting him, and apparently I want to make it even worse.

And Hank killing Connor to blow off steam would be good! How would Connor react?

It's hard to work it out! Although we do get the 'why did you shoot me last night?' scene in canon. I think maybe Connor would be put out at first, and then get increasingly jumpy and scared around Hank, and then they'd both get weirded out by this because androids aren't supposed to be scared. Possibly at some point Hank would casually pull a gun on a human colleague and then go 'wait, fuck, no, not supposed to shoot people.'

What point in the game timeline would that be? How would that play out in terms of "This is Connor, our friend who needs help" versus "Scrap the broken robot, get a new one"?

I'm thinking maybe mid-game timeline, with Connor assuming they're going to have him replaced and Hank going 'LIKE HELL.' (Come to think of that, maybe that would help to ground Connor; his internal prediction function wouldn't predict Hank wanting to keep him, so he can at least be sure that that's real!)

I hugely enjoy that the being of vast cosmic powers is making a 'loser' sign.
