    Summary

    Did you take this from my head, I said. I was angry, really angry, now that I knew ART wasn’t compromised and was starting a fight for no damn reason.
    Of course not, it snapped.
    Where did you get it, then.
    I found more fragmented data in unused buffers and am trying to piece it together to remember what happened to me. Oh. I took a breath.
    Why are you reading my emotional outburst, I said. You already talked to my human about it and everything.
    I’m not specifically reading your emotional outburst, it snapped. But it’s about me. It happened on me.

    ---

    Before everyone gets back to Preservation safely, ART and Murderbot have time to talk.

    Summary

    “SecUnit is recovering as well as can be expected,” she said mildly. “We’re telling it you’re here, and I would assume you’ve already reached out via the feed as well.” A little more gently, she said, “I know you’re worried. But it will be fine.”
    It wouldn’t have to be fine if it were better protected, the Perihelion said. Ayda sighed, very quietly. A very petty part of her wanted to point out that SecUnit had managed to get hurt on the Perihelion as well, and that she wasn’t even on the mission in question. But she squashed it.
    “I’m worried about it too,” she said. “Maybe you could have a talk about better self-preservation instincts.”

    ------
    Ayda Mensah and the Perihelion spend some quality time together without their favorite SecUnit.

    Summary

    Murderbot wonders when it EVER gave ART the impression that it liked surprises.

    Meanwhile, ART has good instincts.

    Summary

    “Media by a SecUnit for a SecUnit!” she said, and then kicked herself. Had that been too peppy? She didn’t want to deter it by being too enthusiastic.
