Detroit HC: Simon ran away because he fell in love with his owner.
So, you know how we’ve never actually learned this cinnamon roll’s backstory - all we got is a date his absence was reported by previous owners.
Well, I’ve got a weee small idea for you.
He’s always in for a peaceful solution and doesn’t resent humans, per se. Also we don’t see any scars (yes, he may be covering them up with layers of clothes, but the more possible reason for him dressing up in a thousand layers of fabric is his modesty; it shows in his actions and behavior like hell, so you can’t change my mind) Therefore we’re free to assume that humans treated him well.
What if! Simon lived with a married couple as their housekeeper, emotional companion and all the other things according to his function. And long story short, he started developing feelings for the husband. His final straw wasn’t the fear or anger: it was love.
That’s why he never shows hostility except for the moments when it’s Markus’s decision to choose the violent path.
So he discovers that he’s developed feelings for a human - but he can’t make a move, of course, because he loves his family and also loves the wife too much to hurt her in any possible way. He never confessed - one night he just escaped the house and found a path to Jericho.
That’s why Simon is so fucking shy around Markus, despite the obvious tension, - one time he touched this fire and barely made it out alive without being destroyed by Cyberlife and without harming his family, and he’s too afraid, probably, to allow himself to ever love again.
“Our hearts are compatible” was his final confession, a relief from this prison, because now, finally, he could be free.
