Work Text:

“What – what do I do?” My voice squeaked embarrassingly. It was my first time being in contact with a feverish human, and in my defence, I usually had a MedSys as backup.

ART’s feed voice was reassuringly calm as it said, Keep her from overheating. She’ll be fine.

Since ART knew its humans, I regulated my temperature down and kept my thermal sensor on Iris. It was odd, usually I raised my temperature as I tried to keep my clients from going into shock.

But Iris wasn’t a client. She was ART’s crew, and I wouldn’t fail either of them.
