Summary
"A good man can be stupid and still be good, but a bad man must have brains."
-Maxim GorkyWill is a hitchhiker with questionable hobbies. Hannibal is a man who has questionable motives. When Hannibal drives by Will who just so happens to need a ride, things quickly take a turn from the questionable to the downright depraved.
---
Based on the tumblr idea that Hannigrammers latched onto: "We’re not supposed to pick up hitch-hikers because they may be serial killers. However, serial killers often pick up and kill hitch-hikers. Therefore, has a serial killer ever picked up another serial killer and did they become best friends?"Series

Summary
"Like we're aware you just got goosebumps."
Distantly, Carol knows something is amiss. But Zosia’s lips just ghosted against her own and the tug inside of Carol was like the end of a bungee jump—a jerk towards something inevitable. She stares at Zosia, who hovers only inches away, making that same face she always makes, landing somewhere between hesitance, asking, and… Was that want?

NULLverse: The Bot-Construct Disaster Squad by FlipSpring
Fandom The Murderbot Diaries - Martha Wells
18 Dec 2025
Summary
With Networks VOID/Networks VITAL, NULLverse is narratively Complete. But I keep writing anyway. Cuz it's fun.
Consider this series if you like: feral shit, disaster, continuity of identity+memory, societies of people with divergent needs/wants, chaos, robot creation ethics, violence vs security, suffering, healing, bad puns.
Canon Divergence AU:
- At the end of Exit Strategy, the Combat SecUnit succeeds at capturing Murderbot
- Murderbot is subjected to Palisade's construct research lab
- The Combat SecUnit is A (Problematic) Character
- Disaster ensuesSeries has its ups and downs regarding angst, dark comedy, and trauma recovery themes. Plus some whack worldbuilding speculation. We like to multi track drift here. It’s crack it’s angst it’s fluff? We have the RangeTM
Some installments are skippable if u so prefer. Reading order is suggested but not strictly necessary if u are a flexible type. Mix and match if you want. Go crazy. I know I am.
Hope you have fun!

Parameters NULL: Our Fractured State by FlipSpring
Fandoms: The Murderbot Diaries - Martha Wells
13 Mar 2021
Tags
Summary
Your face is not SecUnit standard. There have been alterations made to your skin and hair. There is a rapid-cycling fluidity to your expressions that is like a human’s, but not. Your feed is still a strange and curious torrent of nonsense. You use security-protocol-language and human words in tandem. You are like a human begging for mercy, and like a bot requesting resources and strategic backup.
~
Premise: Exit Strategy bad ending, where Murderbot gets captured by Palisade and they decide to run tests on it to figure out what makes it tick.Series

Summary
Ayda Mensah wanted to go on a simple planetary survey mission. Things have not gone according to plan.
First, she aborted the mission months early. Second, she purchased a SecUnit with all of her (as well as her family's) life savings. Third, she’s been sued about six or seven different times. (She might have to ask Pin-Lee to come up with an itemized list.)
Oh, and fourth: She’s already lost SecUnit a day after taking custody of it.

Or: Dr. Mensah's perspective from Chapter 8 of All Systems Red through Exit Strategy.

Summary
“Not on purpose,” Henry said. “I know it wasn’t on purpose. They never – they never meant to kill. Not before. But they didn’t know – and I told myself I’d never be angry with them, I told myself I’d never blame them, never hate them. I told them – I told myself I’d love them above all else, no matter what they did, and now they” –
“But you do!” Darryl couldn’t let that go uncontested, couldn’t let Henry’s self-hatred warp his love for his sons. “Henry, I’ve seen you with them; I know you love them more than anything; I know you” –
“Then how can they hate themselves so much?”
That last was almost a cry, a yelp of pain that seemed to have come from deep inside Henry’s body. “How can they hate so hard when all I’ve ever wanted for them was love?”
After his tense emotional confrontation with his son(s) at the Church of the Doodler, Henry retreats from the group to wallow. Darryl seeks him out to provide what comfort he can.

Summary
Pensacola – 1969
With no actual thoughts involved and no plan to do it, Midge leans forward and kisses her.
Susie jerks back like she’s been shot.
“What the FUCK?” she yells, scrambling off the bed.---
New York City – 1990
For the first time in five years, Midge just spoke to her. Not about her; to her.
It was more than an olive branch. It was the whole fucking tree. And Susie’s holding a piece of paper that proves she gets to talk to her again.Bookmarked by CluelessButTrying
