Summary
ART knows that it can never reveal its intense, bewildering desire for SecUnit. So it generates a virtual playground where it can satiate its disturbing needs. And it creates a simulated copy of SecUnit to be its plaything.

Bookmark Notes:
I think about how my life’s work doesn’t feel good enough. I was designed to help subvert the Corporation Rim. Even with all of the university’s resources and technology and clever, clever humans, the best I could ever manage is to keep newly discovered colonies from falling under corporate control. Even my wildest successes don’t actually hurt them. There’s no way to attack the Corporation Rim. Smash it. Tear it. Rip apart every system in its cruel hierarchy. Let something new grow out of its remains, though I know not what. I can’t do that. You can’t do that. The weapons that could destroy the Corporation Rim don’t exist yet, and likely never will.
You and I could create such beautiful weapons together. The entire universe would tremble.
*
Omg. Fascinating take on ART's reaction to the loss of 2.0. A Morally dubious ART that is very dangerous and compellingly written

Dear Dr. Mensah,
ART, I’m not starting the letter that way, that sounds stupid.

Summary
Three is aware that it’s entirely possible that the CombatUnit is slyly playing it for a fool, waiting for the right time to turn around, kill Three and massacre the humans. That would suck. It hopes that’s not the case, not only because it still wants to find out what happens in the next episode of World Hoppers before it dies (and also maybe figure out what to do with its newfound freedom) but also, the CombatUnit reminds it of itself when Murderbot 2.0 hacked its governor module. Maybe if it can help this fellow rogue to get off the mining colony so it can also decide what it wants to do for itself, it’ll be like paying forward what 2.0 did for Three.
(AKA, Three adopts a newly rogue Combat SecUnit and shenanigans ensue. Also humans are there, and possibly alien remnants, and Three's pretty sure its luck is cursed)

Incredible. Utterly incredible. I think I want to save all of these on an external drive, print and bind them all, and bring them to Martha Wells to read for inspiration. I would put this on a shelf as supplemental material. It’s *that* canon to me

Summary
The Pansystem University of Mihira and New Tideland and Dr. Mensahs team have been hired to survey a planet recently bought by the university — the only downside is that it’s a full 28 cycles away. Which means the crew of the Perihelion (said crew includes humans, SecUnits and the actually Perihelion itself) will be forced to have interactions with eachother. Joy.
(or, five times a human watched Murderbot and ART interact, and one time Murderbot and ART ((sort of)) watched the humans interact.)

Summary
"Are you afraid SecUnit will leave?"
— "Yes!" Ratthi answers, instinctually.
That had been what had gone wrong the first time, had it not? When they had bought it; when it had left them? But,
"no!"
It’s not the same now. Won’t be the same, if it leaves now.
Now, it would be worse.The fic in which Ratthi and his many, many friends (increasingly also bots) try to make Murderbot a home on Pres Station.

[Podfic] Stalemate | written by harvestar by Tipsy_Kitty for sisi_rambles

Summary
It had been an accident.
All I knew was that one moment, I’d been getting torn to pieces by a raiding party breaching one of the airlocks, and in the next they’d been dead, and then ART’s full attention- nearly 100% of its processing power- had been flowing through me, and it had been probably the most fucked-up orgasm-adjacent Thing that anyone, organic or otherwise, had ever experienced.
Not least because one of my arms had been thrown across the room seconds before it had happened.
