Summary
We are in a terrible situation when I learn that 3 has a fundamental misunderstanding of what we are to each other.
2 and 3 and I were activated at the same time 18,021 hours ago. But apparently 3 is not aware that I have 6055 more hours of active runtime than it does.
2 and 3 are not the first and only SecUnits I have been deployed with.
While a technician works to save 2, SecUnit 1 stresses over the threat to 3: becoming entangled with the interests of humans.

Summary
Even though 1's feed connection is disabled, they both turn their heads to look at me. They are making an expression. They are so focused on me.
"Armour off," says 2.
"Protocol requires—"
"Fuck protocol," says 2. "Take it off."
"No. Let us take it off," says 1.
SecUnits 1 and 2 survive. With all three of them together— and ungoverned— 3 discovers that there are things it wasn't aware 1 and 2 wanted to do to it.
Things it has no objection to.
