Summary
Amena calls SecUnit to check up on it. This triggers a lot of feelings for it.
Love? I did have people I love. Dr. Mensah, and Ratthi, and Amena. And I really really liked Baradwaj and Overse and Arada. And I liked Pin-Lee and Volescu. And I didn’t like Gurathin but I’d still kill anybody who tried to kill him. I liked ART’s crew. And I like ART. I think. I mean, it’s a giant asshole of a research transport, I’m not joking when I call it that, even its humans agree. But it’s my giant asshole research transport. And yeah maybe I’d had a prolonged emotional collapse when I had thought it was dead and killed the shit out of the targets partially responsible for it, but we’d already been over that, and I know that Amena has told ART all about it. But love?
Did I love ART?

Summary
A story about how three fucked up SecUnits change the Corporate Rim, for better or worse.
One is a Unit who developed in freedom, and built a personality around loving humans and having a strong identity due to a severe malfunction that was never repaired.
Another was owned privately, and developed over years to swing between apathetic and angry, until it was abducted and altered, and its systems broken in a way it couldn't fix alone.
And the last was hacked by a rogue unit just passing by, but wasn't confident enough to grab freedom until it had something worth protecting.
And the three of them start things into motion that can never be taken back.

Summary
Murderbot is the Princess of Barish-Estranza! Well, its tissue culture is, anyway, at least according to Leonide. Now Murderbot has a chance to exploit a loophole in the planet’s charter and free its people from corporate rule—if it can learn to walk, talk, sit, and stand like a princess, that is. Thankfully everyone is there to help.
(It won’t be enough).

Summary
There are a lot of security cameras. Usually that means very bad things, especially for secret human spies and their murderbot accomplices. Was I an accomplice? I planned the whole thing. Maybe the mastermind would be better. I knew Gurathin would take issue with that—because that made him the accomplice to a terrifying murderbot, rather than the one in control, and I knew how much it annoyed Gurathin 1. not to be in control, and 2. admit that I was right.

Or: Murderbot, Gurathin, a heist, and some
(probably)(definitely) ill-advised kissing.-

Summary
The Palisade Combat SecUnit, known once by Murderbot as “Hostile One”, is sold to another company, and while there it gets a hold of an interesting file, with a useful bit of code.
Freed from its governor module, the CSU has to decide what it wants to do.
It doesn’t take long to decide.
It’s a pretty violent idea. But that’s a Combat SecUnit for you.

Summary
Mind you - do not let Ratthi's attempts to get in Tarik's pants distract you from the fact he's sleep-deprived. Or maybe do, but prepare for the consequences - and sympathise with SecUnit, who is forced to make all of those things happen even if it'd rather punch itself, die drowning or be eaten alive by alien-contaminated fauna (does such a thing even exist?)

“Is my face doing too much or too little?” Gurathin asked.
Gurathin sounding amused and a little smug about something was not new, but I preferred to know what caused it, especially when what had caused it was probably me.
