    Summary

    While helping ART pack for a new colony rescue mission, Murderbot finds a discrepancy in its crew manifest. The truth is weirder and more emotionally loaded than it ever expected.
    - - -
    People have commented on how MB as a SecUnit might relate to ART as analogous to a HubSystem and what that means for their relationship, but how does ART, as a bot pilot designed to pilot drones and shuttles and split itself into multiple pieces, relate to having a SecUnit on board?

    The thing is,

    The thing is,

    Cashier's grief will always follow him. He cannot explain it's want, it's purpose, but he is forced to cradle it in his arms on and on.

    (The usual introspection, with arguing and hatred.)

    Summary

    Inside Dummy is many things. Sometimes it feels like hundreds of colours of string tied and knotted into an indiscernible hue. Other times it's like they've been gutted into a husk. A fancy shell that is simply empty.

    Summary

    "I can’t talk to you during the day, but it seems I’m able to while you sleep.” Mipha explains, “We’re connected, now that I’ve given you my power.” He doesn’t respond, too shocked to formulate words, so she continues, “I tried to stimulate your memories by thinking about my own, did it work? I was aiming for the first time we met.”

    “Mipha has been triggering some memories in my dreams, and I was hoping you could too? We didn’t know each other as long, I don’t think, but I’m sure we have some.” He looks up at Revali hopefully, but all emotions have vanished from his features.
    “You… don’t remember me at all?” Revali asks, searching Link’s eyes, and he sounds almost desperate.

    “Did it trigger a memory?” Teba asks, and Link nods numbly. “If I may ask,” He sounds hesitant, which doesn’t bode well, “In the memory, what color was the bead the champion placed in your hair when he braided it?” Link isn’t sure why that would matter, but he gives the information anyway. “Purple… you say.” Teba’s face is one of someone whose world has been turned on its axis.
