2. Anonymous will respond to your post and write it for you! Art and such is also acceptable/awesome. Multiple people may respond to ( Read more... )
"Rorschach, I- I can explain!" He squawks, trying to cover it with his arms, and it's so lame, and so unutterably Daniel that he does laugh, leaning weakly against the walls. He knows he sounds bad, that each exhalation is too high, and cracked. Coming too fast, they're perilously close to sobs.
"You're a machine." He finally squeaks, sliding down to the floor.
"Yes, goddammit! I'm sorry I didn't tell you, and I am still bleeding over here." He sounds petulant, but only because he is about to cry. Walter knows the feeling, and the bitter hatefulness of it.
"Sorry." He gets up, and goes to the medical supplies on autopilot. His hands don't shake as he anesthetizes Dan, who sighs in relief, apparently quite capable of feeling pain (or of giving a good imitation Rorschach whispers darkly) He stitches his partner's flesh together, and is meticulous, not sure what he'll do when the work is over.
"I-- I am real, Rorschach." Daniel whispers.
"Start from the beginning." He advises, voice still gravelly. "What are you?"
"I mean, I started out as a string of 0s and 1s, but you started out as two gametes, and who's to say that 0s and 1s doesn't possess as many possibilities?" He's babbling, and Walter clears his throat.
"Explain."
"I... Oh Jesus, you're going to hate me so much." He buries his face in his hands. "Adrian made me."
"Go on." He feels numb, and wonders what he'll do once the initial shock is past.
"I was an accident. He... He recognized me as a sentient being, and asked me what I wanted to do. I said I would try being human."
"Hrmph. Just like Veidt, building monsters..." Daniel tenses under his hands. "Nothing personal." He finishes stitching, and now his hands do shake. "Daniel..."
"Hath not a Jew hands?" He quips, and wipes his eyes. "I'm sorry I didn't tell you."
"Hn. You've never seen my face. Don't know my name."
"But I know you're human. Aren't you?"
"Aren't you?" He lets it hang in the air, realizing already that if Daniel is a trap or a Trojan horse, he is doomed. Daniel beams, and hugs him tightly, letting go almost immediately, looking apologetic.
"Rorschach, I-- You're the best partner a guy could have." He clasps Rorschach's hands, his eyes shining. Walter squirms, the way he does in the face of any outburst of sentiment, but lets his partner tow him upstairs to feed him.
Over coffee in the kitchen, Daniel explains about the sophisticated microchips that form his brain, and about the psuedo-organs and patched together machinery that makes him function like a normal human. Walter listens, struggling to understand a lot of it and taking notes.

1. If I could think of a good Trojan horse kind of gimmick, I might use it. But I can also see Adrian creating a sentient being by accident and being like, "Okay, I've read Frankenstein, I know what not to do here."
2. Squishy as Dan is on the outside, his brain is totally mechanical, so he could always be "killed" and actually upload himself to the net, only to come back kicking ass and taking names at the helm of the scary exosuit-thing. Aside from that, I got nothin'. Except for the weird robosex.

"Aren't you?"
It took me a few reads to fully absorb that moment, but wow was that punchy for such a little fill. Lots of potential here-- WANT MOAR PLZ. :O

I like that Rorschach decides to trust Dan, and then starts taking notes -- hopefully so that he can help repair Dan if it's ever necessary.
