(Pt 1) I had an idea for a fic where Caleb (from Ex Machina) finds out he's an AI after Ava locks him in Nathan's house (because he goes several days without water and doesn't die, and him thinking he was human was just programmed into him by Nathan, including his past 'normal' life). The power comes back on in the house and he's able to escape, and this is an AU where space travel is possible and everything. He ends up getting on a spaceship off Earth and becomes a programmer....(cont'd)...
(Pt2) … on the Finalizer, and everybody is like “dude you look like Hux” and Caleb’s like “don’t even know who that is lololol”. Things aren’t working out between Kylo and Hux because although Kylo likes Hux, Hux wants nothing to do with him. But then Kylo happens to meet Caleb one day and he’s like “dayum” and tries to get to know him better, and they really hit it off because Caleb’s never really had any friends before. Sorry if this makes no sense haha I just really like Ex Machina.
Don’t apologise, darling! I love Ex Machina too, and I love Domhnall in it so anything involving Caleb is already brilliant in my book!!
Caleb loves the attention, feeling like it’s genuine and not false like Nathan & Ava’s attention was. Kylo seems genuinely interested in him! But little does Caleb know that he’s a droid-clone of Hux, created by Brendol itself just in case anything happened to his only, bastard child. But Nathan then heard about this advanced AI and purchased Caleb and reprogrammed him for his needs.
No wonder Kylo takes such a shine to Caleb; he’s a copy of Hux!
