Summary
It became known to them in whispers that if one was in trouble, you should call for Simon. Who was Simon? No one could say, or maybe they wouldn't. But it was known by everyone. When you needed help, large or little, you called for Simon.
.
New crew members come aboard. They learn that the shadow following their captain is a lot more than a man whose form can never stay in one shape for long.

Summary
He is welded into the submarine. He dies. He is welded into the submarine. He dies again. He is welded into the submarine, and he dies, and he is being welded into the submarine, gasping as if his lungs were rotting and drowned in blood.
Simon isn't sure if God is real; Hell certainly is.

Summary
Simon, against all odds, makes it back to Mars.
--
Simon was born and raised on Mars. He has not seen it, outside of photographs, for over 21 years. In that time, he has not seen inside the interior of a Martian colony, has not smelled the manufactured, clean air, has not felt the warmth of a well-maintained atmospheric system. And yet, as he absorbs the near-forgotten stimuli, he feels at home. His heart nearly bursts with it.Bookmarked by GlassThreads

Summary
Satellite images showed pieces of the SM-13 scattered all over the bottom of the trench, as though it had been torn apart by some huge beast. A week after its destruction, the Coalition of Iron found a black box wrapped in a life jacket floating on the ocean surface. Clinging to it with his remaining arm and covered in coagulation, was the convict of SM-13.
He called himself Simon. He was the Ocean's Chosen.

Summary
A short AU fic where Mensah comes from the Corporation Rim.
There was a person standing by the dumpster. It was still enough that Ayda Mensah, laborer 2nd class, did a double-take, wondering whether she was looking at some weird mannequin.
Instincts told her to get the hell out and throw the trash out later, but because of that curiosity that never quite left her, despite everything, she took a couple more steps forward. It looked like a person, with skin, hair, and everything, but the stillness was not natural.
A SecUnit. Or a ComfortUnit. Left in the garbage.

Summary
Ayda Mensah was still waiting for a response. I turned to her wary-looking followers. “Is she always like this?”
A few bristled. A few others smiled, and that was strange, since devout acolytes were usually rabid about their belief. One of them, with dark brown skin and curly black hair, rolled his eyes. “Yes.”

Summary
A slow meal with his kid was all he set out to achieve, really. Not the ambush, not the kidnapping—and definitely not the torture.
Or, Cale and Raon are attacked, only one escapes in time (not a redhead).

Summary
“Perihelion!” she whispered urgently, “What’s happening to SecUnit?”
“There is no need to worry, Dr Mensah,” Perihelion replied, “SecUnit has gone into an involuntary stasis sequence.” Its voice was calm and reassuring, though there was some other emotion underneath that Mensah couldn’t quite identify.
--
Murderbot is more comfortable around its favourite human than it realizes. Mensah and ART have a lot of emotions about this.

"I don't carry a weapon," she said.
"I know."
"The poster implies-"
"I know what it implies." It paused for a beat, very long for a SecUnit, probably. "You carry other things. I didn't know how to draw those."

Summary
"You look like him," Bucky says. No prompting, no nothing. He just speaks, like this is a thing he does.
"What?" Steve asks. He didn’t really hear it, too stunned by the fact that words were coming out of Bucky’s mouth to understand their meaning.
"You look like him. So did Pierce." His voice is soft, gravelly from disuse. "Is that why they picked you?"
Steve’s heart plunges like an elevator with the cables cut. “Buck, it is me.”
The hard line of Bucky’s mouth softens just a little. “Sure,” he says.- Language:

They've cleared a little space in the Argument Lounge, SecUnit and Perihelion. Adya heard Perihelion's speakers fill the space with soft music as she approached SecUnit with a hand extended in invitation.
They are stars in a constellation, not touching but still inexorably connected...

Do Not Delete Without Prior Authorization From the Following Vessel by MuddyHyena

Summary
The plan had one obvious flaw.
Without my ART memories I wouldn't know that I needed to get those memories back from Gurathin. I wouldn't remember sending them to him. Which meant trusting Gurathin to realize what had happened and fix it for me.
Fucking Gurathin.

I would like to shout out "An Unexpected Quarter" by i_have_loved_the_stars_too_fondly and the "NULLverse" series by flipspring for inspiring elements of this story.
