Summary
Murderbot doesn't believe plants count as clients, but as it escorts ART in a cultural exchange between Preservation and the Pansystem, with ART transporting multiple cargo modules of native Preservation flora to the Pansystem University of Mihira and New Tideland, maybe there's something to all that foliage Murderbot can come to understand.

Summary
It said, But why not? I tell Don Abene everything. She's my soulmate.
I felt my face twist involuntarily and took 1.7 seconds to compose myself, keeping my reaction out of the feed and biting back a remark that would certainly not help me get the bot to trust me. When I'd called it a pet robot, I honestly thought I was exaggerating.
Bots did not have soulmates. Constructs did not have soulmates.

Summary
“SecUnit is recovering as well as can be expected,” she said mildly. “We’re telling it you’re here, and I would assume you’ve already reached out via the feed as well.” A little more gently, she said, “I know you’re worried. But it will be fine.”
It wouldn’t have to be fine if it were better protected, the Perihelion said. Ayda sighed, very quietly. A very petty part of her wanted to point out that SecUnit had managed to get hurt on the Perihelion as well, and that she wasn’t even on the mission in question. But she squashed it.
“I’m worried about it too,” she said. “Maybe you could have a talk about better self-preservation instincts.”------
Ayda Mensah and the Perihelion spend some quality time together without their favorite SecUnit.Bookmarked by Blinky the Tree Frog (blinkytreefrog)

"Peri," Captain Seth says carefully, "you can't just forge my feed signature to authorize purchases."
This is clearly incorrect; it can and it has. That its forgery was detected is inconvenient, but that simply means it needs to improve its methods.

Summary
While dealing with combat bots and a communication breakdown on an abandoned station, everyone's favorite SecUnit encounters an away team of some unidentifiable humans and their SecUnit. Oddly enough, the symbol of the corporation they belong to is one it doesn't recognize: a weird kind of triangle shape they wear on their colored uniforms.
Away team to Voyager: one more to beam up with us, please.- Language:

Summary
The Preservation Auxilliary Survey Team and the PanSystem University of Mihira and New Tideland are teaming up for a survey of a potential colony world. Their mission: make sure there aren't any alien remnants left on it.
Dr. Bharadwaj and Murderbot both have very mixed feelings about the enterprise. She, because it's her first survey since the one she nearly died on. It, because the planet in question is Milu.

Summary
It seems like there should be a very neat line, at least for humans, between dead and not dead, but I’ve seen enough messy half-alive humans to know that there is no such clear distinction. I’ve seen bodies that were still breathing despite missing part of their heads, bodies that weren’t breathing despite their owners being fully conscious. I wouldn’t call either option alive. I wouldn’t call either option dead, either.
For a machine intelligence, the border is even blurrier. It's hard to say which side of it I will stand on when they're through with me.

When I found out surprise parties were real things humans actually did and not just made up for media, I was so upset my performance reliability dropped to 96%. It had been a bad day for me. I try to respect the humans in my life, but as a species they make it difficult.
