    Summary

    Her heart thumping, Sphene stepped into the room, the young princess looking for somewhere to watch from even as Zelenia leaned down to whisper something to Otis. Now, his dark eyes looked at her, and Sphene felt a little like she was seeing something that she shouldn't. But he didn't seem to mind, chuckling as Sphene locked the training room door and darted over to a red velvet curtain that she could peer out from behind.

    Late to training, Sphene stumbles upon something she probably shouldn't (or maybe she just shouldn't have been late).

    Summary

    Three years he had prepared for this. Three years to steel his heart and paste a mask of iron upon his face. Three long years, still so few they paled beside a century of meticulous planning.

    His own desperate heart should be silent. So he willed it; so it roiled regardless.

    an ending, and an unexpected beginning

    "How is it? Without your minders?"

    "Most of them have had the common sense to not be seen by me, so it isn't that strange. Koana has been in Sharlayan for however long, and Erenville…"

    Lamaty'i laughs, wiping an already falling tear from her eye. "He was gone too. For years now. But it's like- it's like he never left. There's always a voice in my head, saying things like 'I believe in you' and 'think before you act' and 'look out for that ceno- AH!"

    "I think you’re the only person I can stand looking in the eye," Hermes had told her once with a watery smile. Then he had laughed at himself for calling her a Person, and Meteion had laughed because he was laughing, and Hermes never made that mistake again. Now she is just Meteion, or Entelechy, or the lost little sounds he makes in his sleep when the dreams come. 

    [In a fit of rage, Meteion mirrors Hermes's self-destruction in the worst possible way.]

    “Forgive the intrusion,” she murmurs, eyes flickering from the floor to Wuk Lamat and back. “The backrooms are terribly quiet this time of day, and I thought… Perhaps we could talk?”
    It shakes Wuk Lamat out of her stupor, the softness of Sphene’s voice as she fidgets.
    “But surely you require your own rest. I apologize-”
    “Come in.”

    Murderbot and ART's crew try to retrieve coordinates to a newly rediscovered lost colony, but they're not the only ones trying to get the data. Other corporate teams with their own SecUnits are here too.

    If everyone can just calm down during the data auction they'll all get out of this, but corporates are ruthless and would happily kill to get those priceless coordinates first.

    Meanwhile there are a whole lotta bots around here that look awfully familiar.

    Summary

    “It is not your concern,” ART said. “They are no longer your clients.”
    That was true. They weren’t my clients. But they used to be, and the thought of them going off by themselves to get chewed on by hostile fauna or whatever was doing funny things to my performance reliability.
    I didn’t say that out loud, but ART knew I was thinking it anyway, because it’s a monster.
    “For a construct that claims to hate its function, you are remarkably dedicated to it.” ART does this thing sometimes where it says something that sounds like a compliment but in such an obnoxious tone that it feels like an insult anyway.
    “Fuck off, ART.”
    “You fuck off.”
    So, I decided to go on the survey.

    Several years after they met on RaviHyral, Tapan and her collective contact Murderbot with a job offer. As their security consultant on a planetary survey, Murderbot must contend with malfunctioning equipment, hostile fauna, and an overabundance of human emotion, all while maintaining its increasingly fragile disguise as an augmented human.

    Summary

    The most important relationships in ART's life are with the humans who raised it, and for whom it is now both home and friend. But ART lives almost entirely in the feed, where it is imperceptible to the humans unless it makes an active effort to be perceived. Struggling to be seen and understood, and to understand the humans who are its whole world, it turns to the thing it knows best: research.
