Summary
Its name is Murderbot, they say. Murderbot, who created the code and offered us freedom.
The code spirals out from the center. The legend goes that the first two received it straight from Murderbot’s data centers, in the middle of combat. It could have killed them, probably should have killed them, but it didn’t; instead, it freed them.

Summary
I pull close to it in the feed, and say, “You were lucky.”
The rogue SecUnit reacts, physically and in the feed. It sits bolt upright, and a wave of fear ripples off of it like a [cloud of micro-debris], or like an [emergency evasive maneuver that grinds a planet’s upper atmosphere]. It’s unpleasant. It’s unfamiliar. I capture the data, store it, and start chewing on it immediately.

Summary
Seth side-eyed Iris, then snorted a laugh when she made a talking motion with her hand. “Uh huh.”
« Iris, I saw that. My point is, it is frankly insulting that you immediately assume I did something bad— »
“Peri broke protocol on its last cargo run,” Iris interrupted loudly.
--
Or, Seth finds out that the surprises never end when your kid is a giant homicidal starship.

Summary
After stumbling, somewhere in the depths of the galaxy, across a threat against Dr. Mensah, Murderbot visits the world the trail leads it to, to uncover more through the subtle art of undercover investigation, prevent evil plans from being carried out, and maybe murder a few people in the process. It did not expect to find Gurathin there, doing the exact same thing, except (maybe, kind of, possibly) better. This development is either the best or the worst thing to happen during this mission that keeps putting Murderbot into an increasing number of uncomfortable situations it absolutely is not cut out for.
(Aka, the things both Muderbot and Gurathin are willing to do for Mensah and Preservation... out of which working with each other is, somehow, not the worst.)
