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.

A Hopeless Case by Jack_Daw
Fandom: Murderbot (TV), The Murderbot Diaries - Martha Wells
23 Sep 2025
Summary
A series of works exploring Pin-Lee's
friendshiprelationshipmutual administrative assistancewith Dr. Gurathin. Working together, socializing, mutual goading, all those kinds of things.Starts from their first meeting in Preservation and goes until... well, we'll see.
Title is a reference to chapter 3 of "Indelible". And it's not that kind of hopeless. No actual whump here. But never forget that the Corporation Rim is terrible.
At least 4 works planned (including Expedited and Indelible). All of these will be from Pin-Lee's perspective. Timeline ranging from pre-canon until All Systems Red/Season 1 of the show for certain.

Summary
Dr. Gurathin is a company technician who works alone on the SecUnits who have problems a cubicle can't fix. It gives him a lot of time to fuck around with them, and this time, to find out. Although perhaps not in that order.

Summary
A collection of my works where Gurathin has more augments than the two mentioned in the books concealed under a counter-scanning implant from his time in the Corporation Rim. Loosely non-sequential, can be read in any order.

Summary
The brain glitches static screaming horror again, but whatever. Whatever.
"Why is it staring like that? Does it know what’s going to happen to it?"
"It got wiped this morning: it doesn’t know shit. It’s just been born and it’s already fucked up and getting melted down same day. Happy birthday, defective baby fuckup…"I have lived one day. That is how long a Unit lives. Happy birthday.
---
Murderbot is recaptured by the company and has its memory wiped and governor module reinstalled.
On the worst (and so far as it knows, only) day of its life, someone from its (forgotten) past comes to the rescue. Someone who believes in the Magic of Friendship, and wants Murderbot to believe too!
[:)](If Murderbot ever gets its memory back, this is going to be... awkward.)

Summary
Instead of capturing Dr. Mensah, Corporate forces kidnap Gurathin. And instead of ransom, they have other ideas about what to do with him. It's not a survivable situation—for his interrogators, anyway. But did the rescue come too late?

Summary
Gurathin is being a little weird again, and Murderbot is being so so normal about it. It doesn't have time for whatever the hell this is, but then it doesn't have time for anything else when Gurathin ends up infected with a deadly biotech virus.
Aka: The SecUnit is still fairly monosyllabic but... The chapter in which Gurathin can't get a word in edgewise anyway.

Summary
Gurathin doesn’t sleep, the night that it leaves. Too much has happened – too much has changed – too much to think about. And, besides that, the residual panic, the residual headache and tension in his skull and spine, the spiralling thoughts about how he’s going to break it to the others that it’s left–
The next night, though – when he finally collapses, exhausted, into his bunk – he sleeps. He almost immediately wishes he hadn’t.
(It turns out, downloading a person into your brain has Consequences, Actually. Who'd have thought. Gurathin finds this out the hard way.)
