    Summary

    “Perhaps constructs are immune,” Three said and I felt a ripple of fear through my organics. I had said similar to 2.0 right before finding out I was ‘in network'.

    “ART, initiate quarantine protocol,” I said. I hoped it was not too late. I suspected it definitely was.

    Summary

    "It's wrong to think of a construct as half bot, half human. It makes it sound like the halves are discrete, like the bot half should want to obey orders and do its job and the human half should want to protect itself and get the hell out of here. As opposed to the reality, which was that I was one whole confused entity, with no idea what I wanted to do."

     

    Six months into its new life aboard the Perihelion, Murderbot has settled into a comfortably aloof routine with its mutual administrative assistant, ART. Then a new crew member arrives and a survey mission goes catastrophically wrong, uncovering a corporate conspiracy that hits closer to home than anyone expected. As events spiral out of control, a harrowing mystery, the indifferent cruelty of the Corporation Rim and (ugh) its own inconvenient emotions all conspire to force Murderbot to reevaluate what it really wants from the universe and what it means to live in a world of bots and humans when you're neither.

    Summary

    They missed something.

    Ok, that was a start. “How do you know?”

    I do not. But do you really trust humans to take care of their own security?

    Of course I didn’t, and ART knew that, but I wouldn’t be giving it the satisfaction of agreeing out loud.

    …Amena Mensah has begun a course at this planetary site as of 37 cycles ago.

    My performance reliability dropped 3 percent.

    “ART, you could have led with that.”

    Summary

    I said, I wasn’t malfunctioning.

    If my trauma therapist had been here she would have given me one of her looks again.

    ART bot didn’t give me a look even though I could tell it really wanted to.

    Instead it said, It wouldn’t make a difference to me if you were.

    Oh that was irritating. For a lot of reasons. Most of all the way it made my face do something stupid and warm again.

    Murderbot needs some coping skills. Luckily it has an extremely shitty list of them and it might just be willing to let ART help it use one of them on a trip to a university nature preserve. (After threatening it with the end of its energy weapon a bit first obviously). Even bots need to touch some grass sometimes. And maybe each other too.

    Summary

    Ground vehicles weren't supposed to be able to hit people.
    (Then again, SecUnits probably shouldn't be rogue and wandering around on planets, so maybe the whole point was moot.)

    Summary

    Amena has only just started laying out her tools, trying not to show how anxious she is. Iris is pacing back and forth, not even trying to hide her nervousness. The two feed messages, one sent privately to each of them, arrive within milliseconds of each other:

    Perihelion → Iris: What are you two up to? And why aren't you using the medbay?

    SecUnit → Amena : What are you doing? It looks unsafe! Stop!

    Or, Amena and Iris try needleplay for the first time.

    Summary

    明明Gura跟murderbot超有化學反應,加上人機主題,居然沒有糧。哭。。。

    之前看David Dastmalchian的訪問,說最後一集murderbot離開最讓他深刻難過,因為Gura才剛認識murderbot,打從心裡認可他,然後Murderbot自由後就走了,小虐。

    故事時間設在第一季後半年後,我要他們再續前緣。
    建構在ABO 世界觀,Construct本身是沒有性別的,但安裝了性愛模組就可以隨意加上屬性。

    Summary

    SecUnit Three has been free for a very short time and is not doing well. As it tries to navigate the first personal request of its life, it makes lists. The request is more emotionally catastrophic than it realized, and there is probably a very, very good reason why Murderbot initially said no…

    Summary

    Why do humans call it a crush, anyway? I’ve seen actual crushing, and it’s not romantic; it’s not even vaguely appealing. In fact, it’s pretty horrific. Same for when humans describe love as “falling” for someone, or say they’re “drowning” in sensation. I remain convinced that most of my Preservation humans are simply too naïve to know what these things actually feel like. But, speaking as someone who has fallen, drowned, and been crushed (although, thankfully not all at once), I can say with authority that being with Gurathin is nothing like that.

    - - -

    A series of glimpses into Murderbot exploring its sexuality and the experience of shared touch with Gurathin. The first chapter is pretty mild, but the series will earn its explicit rating in later installments. This work lives in the same world as the first work in the series (Virus), but can be read standalone.

    Summary

    “We’ll leave you alone, if that's what you really want. But if this is you pulling away because you’re upset and you don’t know how to deal with it, then I implore you, please don’t shut us out.”

    After a falling out with ART, Murderbot decides it would rather sit in its room all day watching media. But everything’s fine right? Right?

    Summary

    Murderbot and ART go on a cargo run, which Matteo refers to as their honeymoon. Yeah, that's not going to make Murderbot feel awkward.

    It takes multiple chapters before Murderbot figures out that ART is seducing it. I cannot overemphasize how smug ART is about achieving this level of sneakiness. But ART would have been happier if they could have avoided the trauma responses.

    Set after System Collapse. Murderbot POV & ART POV, with occasional crew POVs.

    Summary

    One of Mensah's children wants to read aloud to SecUnit from a chapter book. What's the worst that could happen? (It gets so spooked by a stupid old piece of children's media hitting too close to home that it has to run off and have an emotional collapse about it, that's the worst that could happen.)
