Problematic because: "Almost got her own sister killed after she abandoned her and her sick mother. Also killed the woman she left with, frame the main characters too"
Propaganda: "I just love manipulative women it seems. I love her greed for reaching the status of nobility and how she fights until the end, even saying that she won't let anyone judge her not even god"
Problematic because: "Basically the coworker from hell, except the workplace is a police station and the person he’s harassing is an android detective trying to investigate murders. He’s rude to Hank, mocks his drinking, calls Connor a “plastic detective,” and is constantly hostile because he sees androids as replaceable machines and Connor specifically as a threat to human cops. At one point, if Connor keeps trying to stop him from mishandling a stressed android suspect, Gavin pulls a gun on him in the interrogation room, which is not exactly “professional police conduct”. Later, if Connor goes into the evidence room to find the location of Jericho (the android resistance group the plot is building toward) Gavin confronts him and can physically attack him. Depending on how the player handles it, Gavin can even shoot and destroy Connor. So workplace harassment, anti-android bigotry, aggression, threatening suspects/colleagues, abusing his authority, and being the kind of guy who absolutely makes everyone’s shift worse on purpose."
Propaganda: 1. "He’s rude, insecure, anti-android, and clearly compensating for something, but that’s also why he’s fun to play with as a character. There’s just enough there - the ambition, the resentment, the way Connor gets under his skin immediately - for people to take him apart and rebuild him in fic. Canon Gavin is an unpleasant little cop with anger issues. Fanon Gavin is a whole ecosystem."
2. "gavin is awful but he’s prime “i can make him worse / i can make him better / i can put him in situations” material. he shows up, insults connor, starts problems, contributes almost nothing useful, and somehow became one of the most fic-able side characters in the game. i’m not saying he’s secretly nice, i’m saying he has exactly the right amount of canon crumbs for fandom to go feral. rude little detective man with unresolved issues and terrible social skills. that’s character enrichment."
3. "vote gavin because it’s honestly impressive to be this memorable when your main hobbies are drinking coffee, bullying connor, and getting punched in the evidence room. he is barely in the game and yet somehow spawned a thousand fics, which feels like a crime but also an achievement. is he a good person? no. is he doing anything helpful? usually also no. but he has the energy of a man who would lose an argument to an android and then complain about it for the rest of the week."
4. "There's so little backtory to him that honestly, maybe he isn't a bad guy at all. Maybe it's a cover-up, maybe he has trauma related to it all… also he's played by Neil Newbon and is stupidly handsome."
