Summary: Seventeen-year-old Neal Burke is having strange dreams of being a robot. He can't eat, he can't sleep, and he can't seem to get his dad, Peter Burke, to understand what he's going through. When his anger at his parents causes him to make a bad decision, it nearly costs him his life, and now Peter, Elizabeth and his friends Matthew, Sara and Alex, have to try to live with the aftermath.

Notes: This story is a cross-over between White Collar and Stargate Atlantis and takes place in the Scruffy AI 'Verse which was originally created by taste_is_sweet and is used with permission. This is a sequel to Poor Man, Made. You'll have to read that one to understand this one.

Thanks so much to my beta taste_is_sweet for her excellent work. I really appreciate it, Tasty! Any errors are clearly my own.
