Conner

*"Natural selection, at its finest."*
―Conner[src]
**Conner** is a reluctant member of Micro Studios, having joined the group when he crossed paths with its original members, Tommy Stephenson and Nick. When the Patrick Hill Crime Gang orchestrated to rob the American Bank, Conner prevailed to get help from Jayden, but his stupidity led the group to be tied up to chairs by the criminals. When Gregory betrayed crime leader Patrick Hill, Conner unwillingly teamed up with him and the other Micro Studios members to take him down. With Jayden successfully stabbing Gregory in the head with a knife, the group escaped the bank, which suffered mass destruction because of a bomb that Mordecai had implemented in there. Now joined by Patrick, Conner would come to distrust him because of his criminal background.

When the destruction of the bank resulted in Conner's House to be destroyed, he moved into the Micro Studios Residence, being joined by Tommy, Nick, Jayden, and Patrick once more. When Detective Carter visited the house in search of the third robber, Conner tried to reveal to him that it was Patrick, but came out unsuccessful as he disguised himself to avoid getting caught. The moment Detective Carter left, Gregory invaded the house, proceeding to get some sweet revenge on the boys for trying to kill him. Tying the group up to chairs just like before, Gregory sought to torture them, but the police showed up to mess with his plans. Ultimately, Conner managed to convince Gregory to surrender, leading him to be shot down to his defeat. Conner was freed from Gregory, but because Patrick never gave himself up to the authorities, Conner would spend the rest of his days living with the Micro Studios group.

## History

### Robbery of the American Bank

*"Thanks for helping me drag him over here."
"I was being held at gunpoint by a psychotic robber, I didn't have much of a choice."
"Eh... still, thanks. I'm Tommy, and you've already met Nick."*
―Tommy Stephenson and Conner[src]

In 2015, Conner went to the American Bank, but while he was there, the bank was robbed by the Patrick Hill Crime Gang, who confronted Conner with the other customers, Tommy Stephenson and Nick. The three criminals, Patrick Hill, Gregory, and Mordecai, turned the customers into their pawns, using them to help benefit their operations. Gregory then ordered Conner and Tommy to move Nick over to the side and remain there while they continued to rob the place.

Tommy thanked Conner for helping him out, though Conner stated he didn't have much of a choice as he was being held at gunpoint by a psychotic robber. Tommy then began to introduce himself and Nick to Conner, but Conner disliked how Tommy was trying to make a conversation out of this. Refusing to just sit there and let the criminals steal innocent people's money, Conner went to get help. He snuck past Gregory while he was on the lookout for potential escapees and headed towards the bank's entrance.

### Meeting Jayden

*"Ok, I'm going to level with you guys... I heard one of the robbers say that he might have a bomb."
"A BOMB? DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU THAT THAT COULD BE IMPORTANT INFORMATION?!"*
―Nick and Conner[src]

Peeking through the window, Conner saw Jayden, who stopped to wave hello to him. Conner whispered to Jayden and told him to go get help, but Jayden jumped into the bank instead, shouting out 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY!'. This led the criminals to realize what Conner was doing, and as punishment for trying to mess with the robbery, both him and Jayden were tied up to some chairs. Jayden befriended Tommy and Nick while Conner tried to get out of his chair. Sadly, it was no use. Conner started rambling that he was in Hell, but Jayden told him he was in a bank.

Soon afterwards, Patrick came over to tell the hostages that they had finished robbing the bank, but he and the other criminals paused as Jayden set off the silent alarm, causing the police to show up. Conner became upset that Jayden did that, though Jayden thought Conner would've read him by now. Nick then mentioned that he heard one of the robbers say he put a bomb inside the building, upsetting Conner even more. Jayden then tried to get the criminals to stop, but he got punched in the eye and sent back to his seat, with Tommy and Nick also being tied up.

### Joined by Patrick Hill

*"YOU ROBBED THE DAMN BANK!"
"THIS IS AMERICA, I DO WHAT I WANT!"
"You know, I don't really see exactly how that's a good counter argument seeing as how... y'know... YOU'RE ROBBING A DAMN BANK!"*
―Conner and Patrick Hill[src]

Patrick was soon betrayed by Gregory, who became upset with Patrick for playing things safe, and sent him over to where the other boys were. Setting in front of a pillar, Patrick told the group that Mordecai's bomb had 10 minutes left, but thankfully, Jayden managed to free everyone by using a knife to cut their ties. With the group freed, Conner hoped to get as far away from Patrick as possible, due to him being the one responsible for the bank robbery. This upset Patrick, and the two began to argue as a result. They stopped fighting as Jayden got scared and threw his knife at Gregory, stabbing him in the back of the head.

With Gregory defeated, the boys escaped the bank, where Patrick apologized for the trouble he had caused. The boys were then approached by Detective Carter, who wanted to know what happened to third robber, having only captured two. Tommy Stephenson and Nick decided to keep quiet and told Carter that there was no third robber, but Conner, still upset with Patrick for trying to kill him, told Carter that the third robber was right in front of him. Unfortunately, Carter walked away, and Conner shouted in defeat as the bank exploded behind him.

### Staying in the Micro Studios Residence

*"You idiots blew up my house."
"Technically Mordecai blew up your house."
"Whatever."*
―Conner and Tommy Stephenson[src]

Conner soon realized that the destruction caused to the American Bank resulted in his house to also be destroyed. Because of this, Conner was offered by Tommy Stephenson and Nick to stay at the Micro Studios Residence for a couple of days. Conner took the last bedroom and would remain in the house, unaware that Patrick Hill and Jayden were also there. Waking up to a brand new day, Conner went into the kitchen to get some breakfast. Tommy and Nick became surprised to see that Conner was still living with them, but Conner mentioned the only reason why was because they blew up his house. Tommy told Conner that it was technically Mordecai who blew up his house, but Conner didn't care.

Patrick then walked into the kitchen, much to Conner's surprise. Conner then learnt that Tommy and Nick also offered him and Jayden to stay at the house. Conner became displeased when he realized that Jayden was also there, causing Patrick to mention that he wasn't much of a cakewalk to be around either, as he was kind of a jerk. Upset, Conner reminded Patrick that he tried to rob a bank, while Patrick mentioned that he tried to rat him out. Jayden then randomly showed up to say he committed murder, making Conner wonder where he came from. Nick tried to get the boys to at least pretend to get along, but Conner said he'd rather be homeless. Patrick said he technically was, but this upset Conner even more, to the point he decided to leave the house.

### Detective Carter's Visit

*"It turns out we were fed false information about the number of robbers in the bank."
"And this pertains to me how?"
"Well, if there was a third robber, he's gonna want revenge on anyone who crossed him, which would be you boys. As such, I'm gonna need to keep an eye on you boys, which means you and Jayden need to stay here for a while."*
―Detective Carter and Conner[src]

Walking down the hallway and towards the front door, Conner prepared to walk out of the house, but he stopped when he heard Detective Carter's voice from outside. Carter mentioned to the boys that he had discovered a photo of the third robber and believed he was hiding somewhere inside the Micro Studios Residence. Carter busted through the door in search for his target, but instead discovered a beautiful-looking woman named Bill, unaware it was Patrick in disguise. Conner remained unimpressed as Patrick stood in front of Carter like a fool. While Carter was distracted, Conner hoped to use this opportunity to leave, but Carter stopped him, mentioning the fact he was given false information about the number of criminals who robbed the bank.

Believing the third robber would try to get revenge on the boys for crossing him, Carter confined both Conner and Jayden to stay with Tommy Stephenson and Nick, until the third robber had been captured. Realizing that as soon as Patrick was caught he could leave, Conner tried to rat him out to Carter once more. Unfortunately, when Carter turned around to see what Conner was talking about, Patrick was gone. Carter then told Conner that if he did see the guy, he should call him, and also requested that he gave Bill a kiss for him. Conner refused to do that, and kicked him out of the house.

### Gregory's Revenge

*"I did what I had to do to survive..."
"You got stabbed in the head."
"Eh, details shmetails."*
―Gregory and Conner[src]

Shutting the door, Conner began to confront Patrick for his stupidity, but he stopped as he realized that he was being held at knifepoint by Gregory, who survived being stabbed in the back of the head. Gregory brought the group into the living room, and when Patrick asked what he wanted with them, Gregory revealed that he was there for a game of revenge hide-and-seek, and gave the boys 20 seconds to make their moves. Gregory then gave Patrick back to Conner, but Conner said he didn't want him, and gave him back to Gregory. Patrick urged Conner to take him, but Conner still refused. Realizing they didn't have time for this, Nick grabbed both Conner and Patrick and rushed out the door with them.

### Hiding in the Closet

*"Patrick?? What are you doing in here??"
"Oh not much... just HIDING FROM THE PSYCHO MURDERER!!"*
―Conner and Patrick Hill[src]

Conner went to hide in a closet, where he stepped on what he thought was a slice of pizza. Patrick then revealed himself, saying he thought it was an old donut. Upset that Patrick was in his hiding spot, Conner urged him to leave, but Patrick refused, claiming he was in the closet first. Conner starting blaming Patrick for the trouble they were in, but Patrick assured that he didn't invite Gregory over. Conner said that he could've fooled him, due to his background as a criminal. This upset Patrick, but before he could talk back, both him and Conner were caught by Gregory, who took them out.

### Worst Sense of Deja Vu

*"You could still win this. You have the skill to take them all out, just go all out, guns blazing."
"Do... do you really think I can?"
"Gregory, I know you can."*
―Conner and Gregory[src]

Conner was brought back into the living room by Gregory, who tied him up to a chair alongside Patrick, Tommy, and Nick, just like what happened during the bank robbery. Realizing that Jayden was still free, Conner tried to get him to go get help, but Jayden instead jumped out of a window and made his escape. Conner started shouting out for help, but Gregory returned to the room, saying that he could scream all he want, but that no-one could hear him. Gregory then prepared to torture the group, but he was distracted as he heard Detective Carter playing music outside.

Gregory shot him down, but this led the police to come over to the house, causing him to begin thinking about just giving up and starting a new life. This gave the boys the brilliant idea to persuade Gregory into surrendering. Conner told Gregory that he could still win this, claiming that he had the skills to take out all the cops that were outside. When Gregory asked if Conner really thought he could do it, Conner said he could. Motivated, Gregory rushed out the door to take down the police, but unfortunately got taken down himself, ending his homicidal madness for good.

### Contacted by Gregory

*"Why would I even consider going to an abandoned warehouse?"
"Because Conner, I know deep down in your heart, MMMMMMM you care about your friends."*
―Conner and Gregory[src]

Later that night, Conner heard his phone ringing in the kitchen, so he picked it up and got a call from Gregory, who informed him that he had Jayden. Gregory referred to Jayden as Conner's friend, but Conner told Gregory that he didn't have friends, but instead had roommates. Gregory promptly told Conner that he had his roommate, but Conner asked which one. Gregory began describing Jayden to him, but Conner hung up, as he refused to continue listening to him. Gregory called back, telling Conner to come to an abandoned warehouse that he rented, but Conner hung up once more. Gregory then called back again, demanding Conner came to the abandoned warehouse with a hundred thousand dollars. Unfortunately, Conner still refused. When he asked why he would even consider going there in the first place, Gregory claimed he knew that deep down in his heart, he cared about his friends. Conner then dropped his phone on the floor and walked away.
