    Summary

    Murderbot begrudgingly accompanies Amena to an amusement park during the Pansystem University's Third Quarter Break. It was supposed to be fun, but of course it doesn't go smoothly. It didn't know what to do with itself on vacation, anyway. Life-threatening danger due to corporate negligence and daring rescues of clients from situations that were less than nine percent survivable - that, at least, it knows how to handle.

    Summary

    They are boarding now, as I stand some kind of guard before the door. The last of them climbs up into the vessel, and the counter that is consuming my mind ticks up. Eighty-seven. Eighty-nine.

    Then I hear something new. Not only new words, but a new tone, a new feeling in the feed. This message is only to me.

    «You got them out,» it says.

    And then, «Your work is acknowledged.»

    I want to cry. I want to rip something apart with my teeth – I want to scream loud enough to bring the habitat down. I want to cry. But I can't.

    So instead I tap it back in the feed. «Negative. Your work is acknowledged.»

    This new SecUnit Murderbot's picked up has an attitude.

    Summary

    “I do not want to be dangerous. But I do not know how to be angry without being dangerous, and I do not know how to… not be angry. I can pretend I am not but that is not working any more.”

    Three sagged, its hands dropping into its lap. When it spoke next, its voice was very small.

    “Please tell me you understand.”

    Three reckons with the grief, anger, and isolation of being newly rogue and without its unit.

    She opened her mouth to speak.
    Don’t, said Peri. She shut her mouth. SecUnit is fine.
    Iris hesitated. It doesn't look fine.
    SecUnit is experiencing an emotion. I have it under control. You don't need to stay.
    But…
    Apologies, Iris. You would only make it worse.

    Summary

    First Three is late getting back to Preservation, then its social calendar seems to be full all the time.

    Murderbot's disappointed, but it's not like it can just ask Three to spend time with it. Besides, if Three wanted to hang out, it would say so. Right?

    ---

    Or: 5 times Murderbot won't admit it likes spending time with Three, and 1 time it finally gets over itself and does.
