'I'll take Connor Whump headcanons for $800, Alex.'
Okay imagine– post game, post deviancy. Connor gets shot in the stomach and chest while chasing down a suspect for the DPD. He doesn’t feel pain, he’s still functional, and while yes the sensation of the bullets grinding against his spinal cables is uncomfortable, it doesn’t make him inoperable. Nonetheless, he goes in for repairs at a shop. Hank goes with him.
At first Connor is calm. He’s been repaired before, several times in fact. While this is the first time since his deviancy, he’s not concerned.
He goes back into the repair bay, and is immediately uneasy. This is a shop run by Cyberlife employees. He’s regretting not just going to Jericho, but this shop was closer. He realizes he doesn’t trust these people– he doesn’t know them. He didn’t think it would be a problem because it never was before. He’s only got the one body, and none of these techs will even speak to him. But they’re already there, and he doesn’t want to inconvenience Hank, so he decided to go through with it.
Once he’s up on the rig, they hook into his systems, and his autonomy disappears. He can’t move, can’t talk, can’t twitch, can’t blink. They control his everything. He immediately begins to panic, but there’s nothing he can do about it. He’s trapped in his body and they control his code. Then they’re opening him up, removing his chest plate, digging their fingers into his chest. His innards don’t have nerves, but he can feel everything. He can feel with they twist apart his internal consumption valve, when they shove a metal prong under one of his spinal nodes and pry them apart with a hiss and a click, when they tug out his temperature regulator.
And he panics. There’s fingers inside of him. Of course he panics. But there’s nothing he can do.
It takes them three hours to completely repair him. By the time he’s released back to Hank his mind is in shambles. He answers all their questions and preforms for all their tests, and then he does everything in his power to get out of the building as quickly as possible.
Hank notices his panic right away. He wants to make a scene at these techs for being so fucking careless with Connor, but Connor looks like he might puke despite the inability to do so, and the need to get him home is stronger.
So they go home. Connor ends up showering to wash away the smells of their hands off his body, and dresses in one of Hank’s sweatshirts with a pair of sweats. He ends up sleeping in Hank’s bed for the day, curled around Sumo who is more or less just laying on top of him, massive head tucked under Connor’s chin. Hank falls asleep in the chair next to his bed while watching to make sure Connor doesn’t... die, basically. They go to Jericho from then on.
