I sent ART the edited file along with a snapshot of my recent haptic sensor logs, which mostly looked like [deleted] [deleted] [deleted].
ART took a moment to process that. Your difficulty with physical touch extends beyond merely touching or being touched by humans, it surmised.

Or, ART wants to make Murderbot comfortable. (And yes, it would like to feel that for itself, too.)

"Lost and unrecoverable" is just a nicer phrase for "blown to bits".Or maybe, Murderbot should have paid more attention to what they were really saying.

“Bones. No, hey, come on—”
Abruptly Jim swings himself up to straddle Leonard’s lap, cupping his face with both hands and forcing the eye contact Leonard’s been avoiding.
“You,” he says, with all the confident sureness of drunken best friends giving emotional pep talks everywhere, “are never, ever a distraction. You’re what matters. You’re why I’m even here, Bones. Okay?”
