Summary
Rogue SecUnit maintenance is untread territory. It is much easier to keep a SecUnit functional when it has access to the infrastructure it was built to use. Without access, you must provide your own infrastructure to it.
“You didn't have to do that. I didn't ask for an update,” it grouses.
You're uncertain what it will take for your SecUnit to realize its need for this infrastructure.
In which ART is just trying to take care of Murderbot, and Murderbot is just trying not to overreact (read: panic, have a flashback, dissociate). And they get mad at each other instead of talking about it. That’s the whole fic.

Summary
“i dont want to be a pet bot.”
I think I fucked up my memory rebuild somehow. If I was smart, I would have told someone. A soft reset might have prevented this, or maybe a system rollback, or something. But I wasn't feeling very smart at that moment. I was just scared.
“We know, SecUnit. That won't happen.”
Five times Murderbot saw Miki again, and one time it didn't.

Summary
Based on the tumblr post by sleepdeprivationitself:
Toph goes to the Jasmine Dragon in Ba Sing Se and meets Zuko as Lee, knows he's lying about his name, but just assumes that he's trans but hasn't come out yet
She keeps dropping hints that she's an ally and not a snitch
———
In which Toph figures out that Zuko is trans before anyone else. Including Zuko.

Summary
“Your lungs have collapsed. You can barely breathe on your own. Aang’s been keeping you alive with airbending.”
Oh. That explains a lot. Zuko can’t do anything but choke in response.
Thankfully, the Water Tribe boy isn’t looking for a response. “Not even four hours ago, Katara was the only thing keeping you from bleeding out on the pier. You’re probably just minutes away from being back where you were then.” He accentuates his point by gently applying more pressure to Zuko’s injury. Fucking ow. “You need them. If you want to stay alive, you don’t try anything. Okay?”
Shit.
. . .
When his ship explodes, Zuko isn't so lucky to get away unscathed. No amount of firebending can protect him from the solid steel the explosion launches everywhere. His ship is lodged in his chest, and he can't breathe. He must rely on the Avatar to do it for him.

Summary
Spider-Man is severely injured, and New York has it all on camera.
///
During what should have been a routine fight, Spidey gets his leg sliced off. Very not routine anymore. The digital age is fast; the news hits the internet within seconds, and Spidey vanishes almost as quickly. New York is left wondering where their hero went, and if he's ever coming back.
Meanwhile, Oscorp seems insistent on being as insensitive as possible to the situation, as coorperations are ought to do. Oh, and they go steal Spidey's severed limb and make a Spider-Rat without permission.
This story follows an initially media-based narrative, using a rag-tag team of internet Spidey fans as proxies to explore the reactions of New Yorkers to their hero's injury and disappearance. They're just (un)lucky enough to figure out where Spidey is hiding, and witness first hand how he's (not) coping.

Summary
I had to tell myself stories about you to rationalize away why you would leave me like that. I imagined this reunion time and again, a well-worn bedtime story that I could write into infinity. I look into your eyes and see that I was all wrong – you weren't the hero I remembered. You never saw me.
You can't even see me now.

The Fab Five head out for a rather unusual transport and research vessel to help their first-ever Sec Unit client learn how to take some time for self-care and feel like it has a place to belong.

Summary
I could maybe appreciate the occasional need for something tactile, considering the spiral I was still recovering from.
SecUnit discovers that touch might actually feel good, sometimes. Under very specific circumstances. With very specific people.

Summary
They’d been going in circles with this for the past cycle; a back-and-forth that barely constituted a spat between humans and their organic limitations, but an eternity for two beings mostly comprised of computer parts.
Exposure is an important part of recovery.
I’m not going! It’s a hospital, ART, it’s a fucking–
SecUnit's chest heaved, almost desperate for breath despite its highly efficient lungs taking in more than enough oxygen in the environmentally-controlled atmosphere.
Please talk to me.
Shut up.
