    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

    If you want to pass as human, I can build a specialized drone for you that will mimic the appearance of a daemon from a distance. With time, it may even collect enough dust from you to become something akin to a true construct animus.

    Summary

    I didn’t look directly at Seth, because intimidation wasn’t the purpose of showing him my face. But I saw that moment that all of my clients had; the recognition that they’d signed their life over to an entity that intended to guard it with trained and shackled monsters.

    Summary

    PreservationAux takes a survey on a planet with known hostile fauna and violent weather patterns, so they have to take a SecUnit with them. On their way to a satellite work station outside of the habitat, they get attacked by some of the fauna, but their SecUnit gets them to safety and doesn't seem to be too injured. When they have to lock down in place because of an oncoming hail storm, they find out that their SecUnit maybe wasn't truthful about the extent of it's injuries, and they get to know it a little better, against its better judgement.

    Sometimes you wish your SecUnit had not sent you its memories of its experiences with its governor module. On one metaphorical hand, they were and are vital to understanding it, and it deserves to be understood.

    On the other hand, they're fucking terrifying.

    Summary

    Kukri kept sending me media about “Robbing the Hood” and telling me to watch it, that I’d understand what was going on better if I did, but I had no interest in watching people rob Hoods, whatever those were. I didn’t like robbing in real life (I did it because I had to not because I wanted to) and I doubted I’d like it in media.

     

    Shortly after hacking its governor module, a rogue SecUnit is involved in an ill-fated space battle and finds itself alone save for the company of a mourning raider ship bot pilot. It would like to spend the rest of its life watching media in what remains of the ship's crew quarters, but it turns out that "the rest of its life" wouldn't be long at all without the money to pay for proper maintenance. There seems to be only one way to get that money.
