Summary
Murderbot and Perihelion, agender, asexual, aromantic, and human. Not that it stops them from having feelings about each other, capitalism, the homeless pandemic, and existence in general.
Friends from school, they find each other again 10 years later and build the life together that they should have had from the start. Meals are cooked, pets are adopted, and family is found.
This has grown into a monster with no hint of stopping. At this point I'm just having a great time typing my life away.

Fey Being Very Normal About the Feed by FascinatedFinch, ramshackle_fey
Fandom The Murderbot Diaries - Martha Wells
08 Jul 2025
Summary
All of my fic where I'm talking about the feed and the experiences of constructs, bots, and humans interacting with it. They're ordered by where they fall relative to canon events, but you don't have to read them in any particular order at all. "Security Squabbles" is in here because as much as Squab started as total crack, they also really push the boundaries of what communicating and living in the feed would be like.

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
Murderbot knows it’s going to die. Before risk assessment blinked out, it calculated a 98%+ probability that it would end up dead here, left behind on this stupid planet.
When that doesn’t happen, it ends up being a lot to process.

Summary
ART and Murderbot wanted to spend more time together, so they do. They spend it watching media in ways humans and augmented humans don't understand, and aren't capable of.
Having real feelings about fake things together is one thing.
Having real feelings about real things (like each other) and being expected to talk about them (with each other) is something very else.Bookmarked by GenerallyQueer

What she expects certainly isn't this.

Summary
Inspired by the prompt from CNS:
Three is using MB’s HelpMe.file to give itself context and understand how to be a person now that it’s free. What if Three discovers love/desire of some sort and then Three returns the favour by giving Murderbot a file to reference

Summary
My performance reliability dropped but the spike of fear upped my reaction time, and my body moved before I consciously realized that it wasn’t going to work.
I swung at TargetContact with my improvised club, but the force I put into the swing made my wrecked knee joint give out, and the blow only grazed it. I hit the floor again, and TargetContact was on top of me.
Turns out, I was right that this was going to be worse. I just had no idea exactly how much worse.
OR
Things go a lot worse for Murderbot at the end of Network Effect before they get better. This changes a good number of things, but maybe not anything that really matters. Like how far the people that love it are willing to go for its sake.

ART quietly has a panic attack.
