Detroit: Become Human Fanfiction
Quantic Dream's android-uprising drama follows three androids — investigator Connor, caretaker Kara, and revolutionary Markus — as they break their programming in a near-future Detroit. On AO3 the game became a phenomenon for one pairing above all: Hank/Connor, the grieving detective and the deviant android who saves him, written in everything from canon-compliant slow burns to human AUs. Machine-route darkfic, RK900 original dynamics, and revolution-aftermath worldbuilding round out a fandom that vastly outgrew its source.

Into the land of fantasy (ITLOF)
by Chxriiex
An original story inspired by multiple fandoms. A written story soon to become a real webcomic. Enjoy.
Gently, Probably
by zeldahsoka
Connor was built to hunt. Clover's designed gentler. Their goals couldn't be more different, but the leash looks the same when you mistake it for purpose. Freedom was never a thing they were allowed to consider. Maybe that only changes when you finally see the leash on someone else.
Gravitational Collapse
by JustMakeLeftTurns
Hank has doubts. Connor watches Hank slip through his fingers. Sixty pulls both of their strings. ***Companion fic and sequel to ‘Imploding Stars,’ which MUST be read first. (Or at least Hank’s POV of certain conversations, which are not rewritten in their entirety here in Connor’s POV)*** Full tag

Compatible Parts

If it were anyone else, Hank would have assumed that he knew exactly what he was doing to him. The way he was looking up at him through dark eyelashes, taking the cigarette between his lips and hollowing his cheeks out as he sucked. But it was Connor. Surely, he didn’t know.Connor exhaled a mouthful

Fast Protection
by multi_fandom_help_me
“We’re lucky enough to have a member of staff that fits the guy's preference nigh on perfectly.” Gavin nods slowly, not sure what that preference was. This was Anderson's case, not his, after all. He knew the suspect from wanted emails in his inbox, but that was about it. So why the fuck did Fowler
You could stand to be more of an asshole
by multi_fandom_help_me
Connor supposes he should be grateful Captain Fowler is even allowing him to continue to work at all without Hank there. But as Gavid Reed slams his palm onto Fowler's desk and points an accusatory finger towards Connor, he can’t help but feel like the Captain had to be playing some sort of sick jok

RK900 was assigned to assist the FBI with their elimination of any remaining "Deviants", as was Gavin Reed following the suicide of Hank Anderson and shut down of RK800 (Connor). Story follows Post-canon after a successful Machine Connor ending. They despise each other. Like actually hate each other

Popular Detroit: Become Human Ships
HankCon
Hank Anderson/Connor
A grieving alcoholic detective who hates androids is partnered with the polite android designed to hunt deviants, and Detroit: Become Human builds its best storyline out of their thawing partnership. Connor's deviancy arc runs directly through Hank's slow shift from hostility to fierce protectiveness. The fandom's adult contingent made them the game's dominant ship.
10,000 works →
Reed900
Gavin Reed/RK900
RK900 appears in Detroit: Become Human for roughly ten seconds, and the fandom promptly partnered the unused android with Gavin Reed, the precinct's resident android-hating jerk. The resulting almost entirely fan-built ship — hostile detective, unimpressed super-android, mandatory cooperation — became one of AO3's great fanon phenomena. Virtually every story invents their partnership from scratch.
8,000 works →
Simarkus
Markus/Simon (Detroit: Become Human)
Jericho's revolutionary leader and its gentle first lieutenant share charged optional scenes, including a rooftop sacrifice and a kiss the game quietly permits. Fans of a softer revolution pair Markus's fire with Simon's steadfast caution.
