Bookmark Notes:
Scratches my constant itch for CombatUnit content, including gratuitous amounts of construct/MI interaction, support, friendship, and found family vibes. An absolutely fascinating (horifying) take on CombatUnit physiology/protocol and the consequent trauma, paired with a bright delightful bean of a personality. The usual amount of deeply satisfying construct competency and sardonic internal monologs.

Summary
You SecUnits' definitions of 'friend' are certainly impressive, Perihelion said.
Book 5: Network Effect, Chapter 20. Some scenes between the moment MB1.0 is about to be repaired and the moment Three asks it for the full memory files. Focuses on discussions between Ratthi, Amena, ART, and Three about what exactly constitutes a "friend" and "friendship."
MB exists mostly in the background, but everyone loves it. (They won't tell it.)ART: *Still hung up on being called "mutual administrative assistance" by MB*

Summary
"ART loved its crew. The joy and the love and perfect clarity with what it was supposed to be, what it was supposed to do. ART couldn’t understand how someone could dislike their function - how I could. Once, I had a similar clarity of understanding with my function, then I hacked my governor module and left the company for good, and I had lost it all. It was better, now, in a lot of ways. I had my humans, and ART, and our crew. But in some ways, things were worse.
I still wasn’t sure what I was supposed to do, ever. I had made one good decision, to stay with ART, a few years ago, and I had been just making the same decision over and over again. It felt kind of like cheating."A 20-some year fic in which Murderbot comes to terms with what it means to have a home (or two), a found family (or several), and just what mutual administrative assistance can entail.

Protocol Error by jottingprosaist (jane_potter)

Summary
SecUnit 3 experiences its first 100 hours without a governor module.
The first 10 hours were spent recovering 1.0 from alien hostiles. Those turn out to have been the easy hours. At least Three had protocol to cover some of that situation. Now SecUnits 1 and 2 are inoperative, 1.0 has blocked it, Perihelion terrifies it, and Three is alone.

Styx! I yell over the feed. What happened???
Um, it says, and it sounds cornered. It— it's kind of a long story, it—
My ETA is forty-five seconds, I snap. Start now.
…Right, Styx says guiltily. Well. Okay. It's easier if I just show you.
I am about to ask it what it means by that when I abruptly feel as if my head has been shoved underwater.Series

Bookmark Notes:
“Three, is someone bothering you about your name?”
“No particular individual.” A smattering of faces crossed Three’s memory, but it pushed them to the back of its storage. They are not important. Annoying…but not important. “But it does attract more…attention…than I would like.”
