Omg, I want to ask you about like allllllll your Convin fics, lol! But! I am very drawn to what exactly the Boy Detective one is? 👀 I absolutely love younger Gavin interacting with Hank, and throwing Allen in there too is inspired. I'm very 👀👀👀👀👀
Ohh yeahhh 👀👀👀 More Reed800 let's goooo 😂 Boy Detective is set pre-android though, so Connor was not born yet HAHA.
Boy Detective
Connected to my chloski WIP, Heliosphere.
setting: summer 2019. approaching his senior year in high school, gavin reed was at the point of life where he needed to decide what to do with his life.
Gavin's an ambitious, hard-working student despite his "bad boy" exterior. His mother's health was failing by this point, and Gavin worked two part-time jobs to alleviate the burden and save up.
He'd heard that someone his age, a genius who graduated from university at 16, started a robotics company right here in Detroit the year before. Then Gavin discovered a summer internship programme at that company. Despite it being a start-up, the job looked promising, so Gavin applied.
He was accepted to be the CEO's temporary personal assistant. It felt odd that someone his age was also his boss, but there's something about this guy—Elijah Kamski—that felt familiar.
The young company, CyberLife, was manufacturing some tech stuff, but Kamski was set on his masterpiece: androids. However, he faced difficulty when he couldn't secure the Arctic minerals he first used in his university lab for the blue blood prototype, which resulted in a very life-like android. Whatever sample that arrived was too little despite it being so expensive.
And then, during the internship, Gavin saw suspicious cash flow and discrepancies at the logistical records. Curious, he checked out the warehouse. He found out that someone in the company had been taking cuts from the shipment of those minerals, and channeled it to a drug syndicate. They were creating a new type of synthetic stimulant drug, more potent than cocaine.
Gavin was spotted by the criminals and he ran to hide in the warehouse (only place he could go to because the exit was guarded by the criminals). He couldn't call 911 because there was a signal jammer.
At the same time, Detective Hank Anderson was on a stakeout with Officer Allen, his mentee. They'd heard of a suspected activity near that warehouse, though it was a weak tip. But then they saw suspicious movements. Tried to call backup but the jammer made their radio signal patchy. Then they saw Gavin running into the warehouse and being chased. So they both decided to step in to save Gavin.
Inside the warehouse was super confusing. Hank and Allen even got separated. But the three of them figured out how to work together, though separated, leaving clues for each other and traps for the criminals. (So there would be a moment where Gavin knew that the police were here but he couldn't come to them right away)
There would be some action scenes once Hank and Allen came face to face with the criminals, with Gavin watching. This would later on plant the seed of Gavin wanting to join the police force.
Yup. Haha. I am struggling to finesse how exactly would the warehouse cooperation work. 😂
