    Summary

    Murderbot has never had a soulbond, (~can~ never have a soulbond. The feature that prevents it is not so easily hacked as a Governor Module.) and it really wishes everyone would stop talking about them, because it doesn't want them and it's not interested at all, thankyouverymuch. And mostly it's skeptical that the supposed fix ART just handed it will work, or if it does work, that it'll do anything at all.

    It's about to be proved very forcibly wrong.

    Summary

    When Three is badly injured protecting ART's crew on a mission, Murderbot finds itself disagreeing with the safety protocols that it had written. It was supposed to be the SecUnit meat shield, not Three. It doesn't have time to figure out how it feels about that before it's diving in (literally) to rescue Three and maybe coming to terms with some things along the way.

    Summary

    The Perihelion crew + Amena have been reading scary history books lately. Of course, they need to make it Murderbot’s problem.

    What a bother. They’re even making it dress up for this “Halloween” thing. Ugh. It feels more like an excuse than a celebration.

    Summary

    Iris is being so stupid. It's 1am and she's sneaking to Peri's medical suite. She's just had a (trauma-induced) nightmare and Peri has definitely been affected by its trauma too. A nighttime pact to go make a link to her augments, to be kept an eternal secret, is terrible judgement from them both.

    Iris likes her nighttime pacts with Peri. This is really comforting after her nightmare.

    (Or, Iris has a nightmare, and Perihelion has a solution. It turns out pretty cute and intimate. Maybe a hint too intimate by accident but that's okay, Iris can handle remembering it.)

    Summary

    SecUnit 3 is still adjusting to its existence without a governor module. To be fair, it has only been a few cycles and in that time it's had to interact with the most confusing crew it's ever met, an overbearing Transport that could kill it, and the SecUnit that started it all in the first place. Three patrols, dodges questions, and comes up with some questions of its own while the Perihelion and its crew wait for rescue.

    Summary

    I was feeling relatively relaxed as I strolled through the space, keeping pace with Amena as she filled me in on all the latest Preservation gossip, which I mostly didn't care about, until she said, "Oh! And apparently Gurathin and Three are dating." She grinned.

    What? I can't have heard that right. "What?" I asked, too loudly.

    Gurathin and I are dating, 3 confirmed over the feed.

    My performance reliability dropped so quickly I actually stumbled.

    What the fuck, Murderbot?

    Summary

    "I have worked assignments solo before, and I have gotten used to the absences of SecUnit 01 and SecUnit 02. But I have not reconciled myself to the absence of Murderbot 2.0, though I know it is not logical. 2.0 made its choices, and fulfilled its purpose perfectly, and it seemed satisfied with that. I wish that I had any amount of such certainty and resolve."

    The continuing adventures of SecUnit03. How does a newly freed SecUnit make sense of everything without having consumed 35,000 hours of media for context?

    Summary

    “I showed Volescu my evaluations and he agrees with me.”
    I had a moment to feel betrayed, which was stupid. Volescu was my client, and I’d saved his life because that was my job, not because I liked him.
    But then Volescu said, “I don’t agree with you.”

    If Murderbot feels betrayed here, how does Gurathin feel? Volescu is his friend, he’s shown him his evaluations. He agreed with them? Now this?

    It wasn't as satisfying as Murderbot thought it would be, watching every detail of Gurathin's face as realization dawned they were completely fucked.
