    Summary

    Murderbot doesn't have a soul, ergo, it shouldn't have to worry about soul bonds. Unfortunately for it, that isn't the case. Clients who are soulbonded are liabilities, as their emotional states are in flux as they feel their bonded partner's feelings.

    And then it meets ART.

    Summary

    Kukri kept sending me media about “Robbing the Hood” and telling me to watch it, that I’d understand what was going on better if I did, but I had no interest in watching people rob Hoods, whatever those were. I didn’t like robbing in real life (I did it because I had to not because I wanted to) and I doubted I’d like it in media.

     

    Shortly after hacking its governor module, a rogue SecUnit is involved in an ill-fated space battle and finds itself alone save for the company of a mourning raider ship bot pilot. It would like to spend the rest of its life watching media in what remains of the ship's crew quarters, but it turns out that "the rest of its life" wouldn't be long at all without the money to pay for proper maintenance. There seems to be only one way to get that money.
