Of Hounds & Men

@dumpstersire

RK080 whuffed softly. Attempting to get Detective Reed's attention. He'd been sent in as a new assistant to help DPD. Fowler had immediately assigned him to the man. It didn't know why seeing as his record of work is... difficult at best.

LED spinning yellow. The Doberman identified high levels of caffeine and cortisol. Not an ideal mix.

[ ♠| GREET]

A.N.U.B.I.S barked louder. The vest displayed blatantly that it's an Android. Along with his number printed on the chest strap.

RKANiN3

@ncnorocit

A.N.U.B.I.S. already is off on the wrong foot with the DPD. Perhaps Fowler made a mistake in assigning him to Detective Reed. His work ethic is terrible judging from the scans of the man's computer. He's antagonising right from the start of meeting. Aggressive too. With high cortisol levels.

In general not the ideal partner. But who is the K9_DR0ID to question this man's decision?

The Doberman identified high levels of caffeine too. This is going to be rather difficult working with Gavin. But the Android is nothing but efficient. The best Security Prototype Animatronic. The only one anyway.

Teach Me How to Doggo

@dolllikedetective

RK080 is stationed at DPD. Some sort of new trial for a pilot project. This Security Prototype Animatronic seems to be some sort of exalted solution to the Deviants overrunning Detroit.

The hulking canine sits in Fowler's office. Tall ears flicking to attention when the Chief yells at someone named Connor to get in the office.

A blue vest on the Doberman makes it blatantly obvious that it is only an Android. K9_DR0ID in the classic CyberLife font on either side with their logo in smaller letters. The serial number printed into the chest strap.

Brown optics shifted to scan the man approaching. He must be Detective Connor.

A.N.U.B.I.S continues to observe the two humans . Awaiting instructions or acknowledgement for callibration.

The Hunter & His Dog

@becomedeviant

RK080 cautiously sniffed at its assigned partner. RK800 seemed...odd to the Doberman. Signs of little problems with his coding. The Security Prototype Animatronic simply sat whilst it waited to be acknowledged or given a task.

Considering the uptick in Android cases, A.N.U.B.I.S is an invaluable asset to to DPD. It's not just there to help them solve cases. The dog is there to catch Deviants and keep an eye on Connor.

Machine or Deviant?

@softestware

It was introduced to DPD as a pilot project for Cyberlife's new department. Branching out into Security Prototype Animatronics the next step apparently.

SPA—1 RK080 Assault Neutralisation Unit Beta Intelligence Software.

A.N.U.B.I.S. is the only RK080 prototype to exist. His mission is to catch Deviants should RK800 fail, as they're getting worried that only sending out Connor would be...dentrimental. There's quite the ruckus upon its arrival. No one expected a Doberman this huge to be their new Android. He's basically the bulk of Sumo, but taller. Great Dane sized.

Fowler calls Connor into his office. The Doberman instantly at attention.

Beep Beep Here I Come

@coffreed

Rk080 is brought into the station. A black vest with ANIMATRONIC written on the back along with Cyberlife's logo. LED a calm cerulean hue, brown optics scanned the surroundings of DPD.

A.N.U.B.I.S recognized Rk800, a mere dip of the head in formal greeting afore he moves to sit by Detective Reed's desk. He's quite abnormally large, equal to that of a Great Dane.

[ Deviants detected ]

• investigate

A.N.U.B.I.S had stumbled upon the two, after his own narrow escape. Androids were being taken out left and right, regardless if they were Deviants or not. It wasn't safe. DPD had been stretched thin with Android cases before the Revolution started. He had to leave at his partner's direct order.

A whine is beckoned forth. The tattered DPD vest still strapped to his torso felt heavy with the unexpected ill ease of having no direction. No one to give him task.

That's why he doesn't automatically attempt to apprehend the the Deviant and the Little One he sees in the alley.

His focus goes to the child. He likes children. They give pets and call him the Good Dog.

RK080 waits for the AX400 to identify herself.

@codedxvirus

Jaws parted to whine. Artificial tongue hanging, flanks heaving, the expand and constriction of its alloy ribs creaking under the stress and cold.

A.N.U.B.I.S heaved its hulking form over the snow covered trail. Drops of Thirium leaving trails and streaks of phalo blue. Red glitched across the one optic that still worked. Cerulean liquid dripping from the socket of the damaged component.

[ COMPONENT #A754h OPTIC UNIT CRITICAL. REPLACE IMMEDIATELY. COMPONENT #4507 AUDIO PROCESSOR MISSING. REPAIR IMMEDIATELY.]

A house comes into view, sleek black, angular and sharp lines. Artificial in the way it appears, too cold. Clinical. The Doberman collapsed whilst his leg finally broke. Another alert flashing across the HUD.

[ COMPONENT #8427g LEFT LEG UNIT. SEVER DAMAGE. THIRIUM LEVELS CRITICAL. ]

Clamping its jaws over the tear, crushing the wound would prevent significant leaking and stem off imminent shut down. Hobbling now with a torn shoulder, three legs (another on the verge of breaking) and a torn ear. Once the man and RK800 left, the dog forced it's body to move. Blind in one eye. Head swiveling, hanging down, weakened.

A.N.U.B.I.S single optic doesn't process how the Animatronic made it to the door. Nor how his voice box managed to make enough racket whilst the foreleg it used to furiously scratch the door broke too. Left with one foreleg and one hind leg. Voice box screaming, a sound that he wasn't meant to make, amongst the barking.

It wasn't fair. Having gone to great lengths in his loyalty. Programmed to such a degree.

Good dogs obey. Bad dogs think.

That's what Amanda said. Execution of the mission one of his primary parameters.

am I the Good Dog?... Amanda..? Am I Good?

A.N.U.B.I.S eye began to close, lying in his own blood. It did as Amanda told. Where was it's reward? Won't she call it the Good Dog? Is it the Good Dog?
