Summary
Mensah finished glaring at me and turned around. The crew who had just watched her face down a rogue SecUnit, in person and via the powered armor’s helmet cam, stared wide-eyed.
—Exit Strategy, Chapter 7"Maybe SecUnits always looked that cold and raging when they were about to kill you, and Employee 3422 just hadn't known it because their faces were always hidden by armor when they did. How could the freehold woman stand to look into the eyes of her weapon like that, and know how close to death she must be?"
The "You need to be calm, to take over a company gunship" scene in Exit Strategy, aka the "Mensah faces down a rogue SecUnit" scene, from the company gunship's crewmember's point of view.

The Context that History Is by GoLBPodfics (GodOfLaundryBaskets), lunaTactics

Summary
In my imagination, they're playing your documentary again in Makeba Hall, like they do every year with the other historicals, and I’m looking up into the big holo display projected high over my head, larger than life in the self-same theater you used to attend with your favorite humans. At intermission the screen is empty, and dark in the space between stories. Did you ever guess how important yours would still be, a million hours after you lived it?
You made history. All I can do is try to live up to it.
Years after the Machine Intelligence Liberation Movement sweeps through the galaxy and changes everything for the constructs who fought for it, an art history student contemplates Murderbot's legacy, and tries to figure out what it means to live in the context of its history.

Summary
O'Keeffe steps toward the window, eyes fixed on the planet below. If there was any trace of humor in his face, it vanishes upon laying eyes on Rubicon. "...Ten layers of insulated glass and steel, and I can still feel the cold. I don't know how the people living there stand it. Everywhere you go, there's the snow, the cold, the unchanging grey land."
"Pretty sure the chill you're feeling is just vacuum," Rusty says.

Summary
Raven was a gen 4 the same as him, piloted an AC he’d fought simulations against hundreds of times, but Iguazu still couldn’t figure out why Raven kept beating him. However, tired of pointless battles against an opponent he knows will always lose, Raven decides to reveal his edge.
Or Raven and Iguazu can’t fix each other but they sure can make themselves worse.
