Summary
The terms Barish-Estranza gives the lost colony are simple. Unconditional surrender, sign indenture paperwork for every adult and child, or they will eliminate all dissidents on record using a Combat SecUnit, and the killing will continue until they get their way.
The people of Esperia have no idea what that is. Barish-Estranza has technology that they have never seen. But they know they have to save the children. They pack the colony's children onto their one functioning ship, the Horizon, along with teachers and a barely adequate crew, and send them toward the wormhole that may lead back to the world that the Esperian colonists originally came from.
Barish-Estranza doesn't want to admit it, but they're unexpectedly missing their best threat.
And, onboard the Horizon, a child tells his teacher that there's a mysterious person in the machine closet…

While on an undercover mission deep in the Corporation Rim, Tarik
buysstealsrescuesacquires a ComfortUnit. This is fine—it can hang out while he finishes the mission, he’ll be not-an-asshole to it, and then it can go on its liberated way and never have to see him again. This will definitely not get weird and messy.Bookmarked by HardenedTreeSap

Summary
The Preservation Auxilliary Survey Team and the PanSystem University of Mihira and New Tideland are teaming up for a survey of a potential colony world. Their mission: make sure there aren't any alien remnants left on it.
Dr. Bharadwaj and Murderbot both have very mixed feelings about the enterprise. She, because it's her first survey since the one she nearly died on. It, because the planet in question is Milu.

Summary
(I had a bit of a moment there, but I think I deserved it. The governor module, as ever, disagreed and its warning zap had me reviewing the last few seconds of video to formulate a reply before the pain set in.)
“This unit has never been designated ‘Rin’ in the past, but will now answer to that as per client request.”
