Hey hey! Is it okay for me to request a matchup/pairing for Detroit: Become Human? (I think it's in your list of fandoms, if not, creepypasta would be amazing as well!) sorry if the information is too long I'm a little bit of a perfectionist 😭🙏 I'll put a lil summary at the end so you could just read that if you want :]
I'm a guy (not cis) who couldn't care less about the gender stereotypes or the labels on anything. Like I barely ever experience chest dysphoria, I wear skirts here and there and still proudly call myself a man because that's what I am :3 and what I wear or the things I do wouldn't change that. So that's a little bit of my mindset, a lot of people have called me "too woke" and stuff as well.
I'm not exactly extroverted as I lose energy really easily when it comes to holding a conversation and interacting with new people. I'm really awkward too and while I'm undiagnosed, I've been suspecting myself to be autistic. (I have been diagnosed with OCD and depression, however) I don't like physical touch but I crave it so that means it's really rare for me to feel comfortable with someone hugging me or even holding my hand but when it happens I can't get enough. Random fact: I like listening to the same song/podcast/video on repeat or rewatching old shows and I hate starting new series for some reason.
My love language is gift giving because I genuinely don't know how else to express my love for someone. If it was up to me, I'd be selectively mute lmao because whenever I talk, I have to think for at least 5 minutes beforehand so I don't mess up or say something stupid and I am just not good at emotional stuff in real life. I'm bad at giving advice and comforting people, but I'm a good listener.
I'd say I'm a really reallyyyy submissive person in general, to the point where if I love someone, I would give and do basically anything for them, even if it means stepping out of my comfort zone. On the other hand, my moods are kinda unpredictable and sometimes I completely dissociate from society and even my friends and despite loving them all dearly, talking with them feels exhausting to the point it feels like a chore and I get annoyed.
So, in short: my mood changes unpredictably, I'm low-key autistic, I'm a hopeless romantic but also kinda picky, I am comfortable with the "masculinity" I've built in my head and don't care how strangers perceive me.
Take all the time you need and ignore this if you want to! Have a good day :D
Paring: Connor (RK800)
Here's Why:
Connor’s whole identity is about balancing who he’s expected to be with who he actually is. He deeply respects individuality and wouldn’t flinch at your disregard for gender stereotypes, in fact, he’d admire the confidence you carry in saying “this is who I am, no matter what.” Connor is patient, observant, and thrives on routine, which fits your love for repetition, gift-giving as a love language, and your exhaustion with constant social energy. He would never rush you into affection, but once you feel safe enough to let him in, he’d cherish every single hug or handhold like it was something sacred.
Bonus Headcannons!
Social & Emotional Energy
Connor never pressures you to talk. If you want silence, he’s perfectly fine sitting next to you in calm companionship, maybe running analysis subroutines in the background while you rewatch your comfort shows.
When you get into your “selective mute” headspace, he adapts, using little gestures, text messages, or even writing on paper instead of making you verbalize. He sees communication as more than words.
Touch & Comfort
Connor reads your body language flawlessly. If you don’t want touch, he won’t offer it. But the first time you do let him hug you? He’ll file that moment away in his memory banks forever.
He treats physical affection with you as rare, precious treasures, he’ll never take it for granted. Expect him to quietly smile whenever you lean on him, hold his hand, or curl up next to him.
Love Language Sync
Your gift-giving is something Connor adores. Even if it’s something tiny (a ribbon, a keychain, a hand-drawn doodle), he catalogs it as a priority memory and keeps it safe.
In return, he’ll “gift” you in his own android way, fixing things for you before you even notice they’re broken, surprising you with your favorite snack, or memorizing the exact moment you laughed hardest at a show and replaying it for you.
Routine & Repetition
Connor is fascinated by your tendency to rewatch/rewind familiar media. Instead of questioning it, he’ll join you. He doesn’t see it as “repetitive”, he sees it as comfort, as a ritual he gets to share with you.
He even helps you make playlists with your favorite songs and loops them for as long as you want.
Your Submissiveness & His Stability
Your willingness to give and do anything for someone you love doesn’t scare Connor, it humbles him. He knows what it’s like to be programmed to obey, but with you, he’d treat your devotion as something far deeper: choice.
He’s protective of you when your depression or exhaustion pulls you away from the world. He doesn’t push, doesn’t guilt-trip, he just makes sure you’re safe and reminds you he’ll be there when you’re ready.
Extra Detail
Connor would quietly admire your individuality, your skirts, your mindset, your refusal to let stereotypes define you. He’d probably even ask if he could try on some of your favorite outfits just out of curiosity, and then tell you, “I understand why you like this. It suits you.”
Runner-up pairing: Markus, especially if you want someone who admires your strength in living authentically and would push you (gently) to embrace your identity and freedom more. Markus is more fiery and idealistic, where Connor is more steady and grounding.
