    Summary

    There were seven Secunits on this planet rented out by the company. Statistically I had been just as likely to be one of Deltfall's units. I only had a 14% chance of being the single Preservation Aux unit. It didn't seem fair that since I was here not there that everyone else had to die.

    My little ASR AU where Murderbot is rented out to Graycris instead of Preservation Aux

    Summary

    SecUnits don't play games. Perhaps, though, they can do something similar. AKA Three is still getting used to freedom, and in a way, so is Murderbot. They work it out together.

    Summary

    Planets are dumb and dangerous, but at this point I'd argued— okay, more like complained— complargued so many times that nobody except ART was still willing to argufy back.

    (That stands for argue-pacify, in case it isn't obvious. I think it's not obvious. And no, I hadn't forgiven ART yet for saying I needed pacifying.)

    Anyway, I was currently complarguing from my seat in the back of the snow-capable bot-driven transport heading out to the middle of nowhere, so I had the sneaking suspicion I'd lost the fight.

    Murderbot accompanies its humans on a winter vacation. Then the storm hits.

    Summary

    In order of ascending priority, I am returning to the alien-remnant-contaminated planet with Murderbot 1.0 for the following reasons:

    1. I have nothing else useful to do.

    2. 1.0 continues to experience malfunctions that may compromise whatever mission it is assigned. (Or assigns itself.) (It refuses to explain the nature of these malfunctions.)

    3. The colonists have sent word of an agricultural bot displaying erratic, threatening behavior near their largest settlement.

    4. I disabled my governor module so I would not have to stand around while others died.

    Summary

    SecUnit will see through its drone views that Three is approaching the lounge, and slide down off its favourite padded chair onto the floor without ceremony. And Three, seeing it when it enters the room, will silently lie down next to it, shoulder to shoulder.

    ---

    Or, how the floor becomes the foundation for: peace, friendship, security, and life.
