reed900, but instead of Gavin hating androids and him working with RK900, Gavin buys RK900 as an at-home-android, actually treating him nicer than anyone he’s met (actually treating everyone he meets like shit),

he’s mostly monotone and mellow around RK900, not showing much emotions and still asking for things as little as “would you get me my toothbrush?” In bed, grumbling about his day, venting about his whole life while using RK900 as someone to comfort and hold him. A lot of their time spent together being RK900 positioned behind Gavin with RK900’s arms wrapped securely around Gavin’s waist while he holds the androids hand to his chest, gently fidgeting with RK900’s fingers as he quietly talks, never leaving out little things like “thank you for being here…”

and that ends up being how RK900 deviates, especially with how he sees Gavin treat other people compared to him. and the fact that with the amount of quiet afternoons and nights of holding the human, RK900 has heard thousands of stories about his life, his inner thoughts that Gavin hasn’t told a living soul. RK900 knows more about Gavin than anymore ever has or ever attempted

And RK900 can see how Gavin’s vitals immediately change when the android is around, how his heart rate slows the second the man spots the RK, after he comes home from work. His breathing and heart rate peacefully slow when they finally lay down together to talk

bonus:

Playing off of this with a different au: Reed900 where Gavin barely acknowledges RK900 at work, but brings him home to hold and comfort him (and everything else about what they do at home listed above)

(as always, you’re free to use these, just @ me I’d love to see!)

[ A meme of someone’s wrist being pinned to a bed, the sleeves of both wrists suggesting it’s Nines pinning Gavin down. The camera angle changes in the next frame to show Gavin wearing Nines’ jacket sleeve on one arm, and his own jacket on the other arm. Gavin is taking a picture of himself pinning his own wrist down with his phone that he holds haphazardly between his teeth ]

feel free to draw this. It can be convin too

so ive seen some people question why cyberlife would make an android (rk900) that's less human-like after they already had the charming, personable rk800, and i have some thoughts. (this is also me trying to rationalize rk900 existing in a post-peaceful-revolution world)

in the alien film series, the androids ('synthetics') in the main series are seemingly less 'advanced', or at least less human-like, than the androids in the prequels. it's explained in the prequels that for the safety of humanity, androids could not have the ability to create, and were subsequently made easier to differentiate from humans. this reminded me of the possible developmental regression of rk900, especially considering what Connor was made for and why they would even make another model if the deviants seemed to be winning public favor.

i think it's reasonable to assume cyberlife could've considered the possibility that Connor might fail his mission, or successfully betray them in some way. that they might have wanted a failsafe, an android they could perfectly and completely control, to attempt to complete Connor's mission for him if all else fails. in this case I'd be assuming the rk900 didn't make it out of production in time to prevent the peaceful revolution.

even in that case i think there's a possibility they would still create the rk900 anyway, potentially as a 'true android' product to sell to people still reeling from the loss of their servants. sort of like "don't worry, we got it right this time, these ones definitely don't have feelings!" in fact i think the rk900's apparent cold, callousness could even be a potential deterrent for deviancy. the androids we've seen become deviants seemed to do so when treated as a person, but a mean expressionless machine probably wouldn't end up in a situation like that to start with.

basically, i think the rk900 was designed after deviants were discovered (and after Connor began his mission), specifically so that he wouldn't become one, and i think they made him an asshole so that he'd never be treated like a person and would consistently view himself as a machine. and i do think he would become a deviant anyway i just think it would take a lot longer.

also if you like androids and you haven't watched the alien prequels PLEEEAAASSEE just do it you'll thank me later

for the OTP number question thing, Reed900 13?

“Who reaches for the other’s hand first?”

It would depend, like if Gavin were being ‘mean’ he might touch Nines’ hand (when in reality he just wanted touch him)

but Nines would do so confidently, his intentions obvious
