    Summary

    "ART loved its crew. The joy and the love and perfect clarity with what it was supposed to be, what it was supposed to do. ART couldn’t understand how someone could dislike their function - how I could. Once, I had a similar clarity of understanding with my function, then I hacked my governor module and left the company for good, and I had lost it all. It was better, now, in a lot of ways. I had my humans, and ART, and our crew. But in some ways, things were worse.
    I still wasn’t sure what I was supposed to do, ever. I had made one good decision, to stay with ART, a few years ago, and I had been just making the same decision over and over again. It felt kind of like cheating."

    A 20-some year fic in which Murderbot comes to terms with what it means to have a home (or two), a found family (or several), and just what mutual administrative assistance can entail.

    Summary

    ART is REALLY good at giving its crew presents that improve their well-being. It is less good at doing this for its SecUnit, but Murderbot isn't going to say anything about that. Up until the "huh, my mutual administrative assistant is trying to turn me back into a company SecUnit" anxiety gets to be too much to handle, that is.

    Post NE fluff. MB and ART's regularly scheduled media related bickering descends into EmotionsTM when MB uses ART's nickname in a failed attempt to poke fun.

    Summary

    Murderbot's made a lot of stupid decisions, usually for good reason. Or at least, what seemed like a good reason at the time. Re-enabling its governor module, even if only in a last-ditch attempt to keep its humans safe, had been the only card it had left to play. But things didn't work out as planned, and after four years of freedom, it's back.
    If only MB can even tell its humans what's wrong.
