Gavin Reed in Redemption Arc Fanfiction

Gavin Reed — Abrasive DPD detective whose open hatred of androids made him a minor antagonist in canon and a fandom phenomenon out of it. Pairing him with the stern RK900 spawned one of AO3's biggest fanon-driven ships.

Redemption Arc — A character who has done genuine harm works to become someone better, earning forgiveness slowly or sometimes never receiving it at all. Redemption fics take a villain, an antagonist, or a fallen hero and ask what atonement would actually cost them.

There is something deeply hopeful about watching a person claw their way back from their worst self, especially when the narrative refuses to make it easy. Gavin Reed's (also known as Detective Reed) role in Detroit: Become Human makes them a natural fit for redemption arc storylines, which is why this combination is one of the most popular in Detroit: Become Human fanfiction.
