SPOILERS FOR MUDD AND KYBORG'S ARCS BELOW :0

Thinking about how Kyborg AND Mudd both lost a sibling - Kyborg losing his older sister Cariana, Mudd 'losing' his younger brother Clay (I don't care if he was fake, Mudd's emotions and memories were as real as he believed them to be) - and, at least in my headcanon, they didn't replace the other's lose so to say, but they filled the gap that the lost sibling left

Kyborg got that teasing older sibling

Mudd got the little shit younger brother

Muddborg brothers I love you so

What did Connor think would happen to him after he accomplished his mission? I always thought he knew he would be deactivated but Connor seems genuinely worried in the RK900 ending when he asks Amanda “what will happen to me?”

Connor thinks that he’s special. Or rather… Connor was made to think that he was special.

He doesn’t act like other androids, pre-deviant or otherwise. You don’t see Kara or Markus checking themselves out in mirrors or adjusting their clothing when it gets messed up. They can’t insult or barrette humans they find annoying. They can’t bust up private property. They can’t even enter a building if a ‘no androids allowed’ sign has been posted on the front door.

But Connor can - and he can do more than that.

Connor can pick up guns, which his first chapter tells us is illegal. Connor can fire guns, which context tells us is super illegal. Connor can kill and maim and brutalize androids and humans to his heart’s content. Or, he can decide not to, if that so suits his purpose. He can operate with a level of autonomy that even an android in a situation like Markus could barely dream of achieving. Connor can access the private information of every single person he walks past, right down to their fingerprints and DNA. He infiltrates military operations under the guise of humanity and can lie to a human’s face when put on the spot. Everything about Connor’s entire existence flies in the face of every bit of android-based legislation that we learn about the world of DBH.

But Connor is the android sent by CyberLife. He doesn’t need to follow something as pedestrian as rules.

That’s why he thinks he’s special - because he literally is. No one else can do the things that Connor does because no one else is even in the same league as him. CyberLife created an android that could operate with complete impunity whenever it wanted, however it wanted, because that’s what they needed Connor to be in the midst of the deviancy crisis. And then, CyberLife made sure that he knew they needed him by giving him two important things.

Firstly, they gave him Amanda.

Amanda is there to watch over Connor, to be his handler as he goes through the various missions scattered across his POV. But she’s also his confidant, his therapist, his friend. Hell, if you’re willing to go down this route, Amanda is probably the closest thing that Connor has to a lover throughout the entire game. But regardless of how you view their relationship, you can’t deny that Amanda is the CyberLife-approved target that they want Connor to project his loyalty upon. And that’s why they have Amanda operate in a way that ensures that he will crave her approval, so much so that even if he starts to experience doubt, Connor will still come running home to her at the end of the day because where else is he going to get what she can give him.

(That is why Amanda does not approve of Connor’s choice to talk about his new bff every time she wants a mission report, why Hank is not just a distraction so much as he is a threat to her. Because Hank is an alternative option for Connor’s loyalty to find a home with, and he’s so far out of CyberLife’s realm of control that the only way for them to get to Connor through Hank is to have 60 hold a gun to his head.)

And, yeah, Amanda can neg Connor about his mission successes. “It’s a pity you let that deviant self-destruct…” is a popular line of her’s for a reason, after all. But when the chips get thrown down, and Connor is starting to question whether he’s doing the right thing, what does Amanda do? She strokes the one part of Connor that CyberLife has allowed him to feel unconditionally good about.

His ego.

Amanda turns herself into Leia Organa, calling out, “Help us, Connor! You’re our only hope!” whenever shit starts getting real for the company. And then CyberLife proves to Connor, over and over and over again, that they actually do consider him their only chance at winning by gifting him his second ability.

Immortality.

Connor gets tossed off a balcony? No problem. His body gets riddled with bullets? Not a big deal. He is shredded underneath a combine harvester? Shot by friendly fire? Turned deviant and was executed by Markus? Doesn’t matter. Welcome back, Connor. Here’s your gun and your diplomatic immunity and your mission because without you, we are fucked.

You’re the most advanced prototype CyberLife has ever created, Connor. If anyone can stop this from happening, it’s you.

God, no wonder he thinks that he’s special. CyberLife literally can’t stop calling Connor their one true saviour for a single fucking moment… right up until they do. And that’s what is happening in the RK900 ending.

Because you’re right, Nonny. I do think that Connor knows, on some level, about the RK900. Amanda calls him a prototype right to his face and he parrots it back to anyone that asks, so I’m sure that Connor’s million-dollar brain is perfectly able to access a dictionary and figure out that that means CyberLife is using him as a beta test for a final product. Sure, they might deactivate him some time in the future, or if he fails enough that he starts to screw with their data collection, but there’s no way that going to happen now. Not after he’s done the thing that they asked him to do. Not after he’s come to collect his praise from Amanda and get sent on a new mission, just like he does every single time that he does a good thing. Because Connor is special, and CyberLife loves him, and they need his help, right?

Right?

…

…Denial sure is a powerful thing, isn’t it, Connor?

Because Connor was never special. He was a tool, a gun that was desperately needed during the war but becomes obsolete in a time of peace. He was no more special than the bullets that he fired into each one of those deviants, and frankly, far, far too much of a risk to be left alive in the aftermath of a failed revolution. I mean, Amanda says it herself: CyberLife is going to have to rebuild their customer’s trust if they’re going to be able to sell more products in the future. And there’s no way that they can do that with something as volatile and unruly as Connor wondering around. He’s a walking, talking lawsuit in the making, and they need to get rid of the evidence of their illegal activities as soon as possible.

But the RK900? That’s an investment in the company’s future, one that the government is clearly interested in. So he can stay.

Because he’s special.

His ass does not pay attention enough to know all of their genders. Toph wears baggy clothes, he squinted at her and went “yeah that’s a boy. Or boy adjacent. Probably.” and moved on. Ally???

*rocks back and forth* Brink Tussler.... My beloved

Brink Tussler is next on the list for character weeks!!! Watch out tomorrow night for the dates and prompts!!

(And thank you to everyone who participated in Gum-Gum week! I loved seeing all the art and fics!)

[finnbin]

Brinkborg cheek kiss :)

It's been too long since I've drawn Brink Tussler and the Kybaby so enjoy this shoddy digital art because I can't do digital art

This is loosely based on the idea that Kyborg can't kiss because of the whole Lynn Murr thing so Brink has to make up for both of their kisses :)
