Summary
Are you jealous of me? Why?
No, you little idiot. I’m jealous of the fucking HubSys.
Okay, Murderbot, don’t panic. So what if the bots and systems you’ve interacted with in the past find your methods to be (ugh) intimate in some way. That was fine. That didn’t change anything. Right?
Shit, it changed everything.
---
Murderbot finds out it's been unintentionally flirting with other bots and systems. ART wishes it would penetrate its own systems the same way.

You were so beautiful.
And I was the only one who could see it. I was the only one you would allow to see it.
You really should have known better than to let me touch you like this.

Murderbot fucks (up) one of ART's drones and has an emotion or two about it.

Summary
MB's life is pretty stable. It works for campus security, makes friends with the university faculty, and tries to be a functional adult. What it might do in its private life is its own business.
Then ART decides to make that its business, too. Neither of them expect how much they'll matter to each other or how intertwined their lives will become.

The last option involves closing down as many programs as I can get away with without shutting down, including the really important ones. It sounds terrifying, and it is. (Was.) (...Actually, who am I kidding, it’s still terrifying)

Peri says, Iris, do you recall the time on XavFlet when I abruptly departed to go pick up Karime, and Seth told me that I was required to give the crew a fifteen-minute advance warning of unexpected departures?

Summary
The planetary leader of Preservation is taken hostage by a corporation and held for interrogation. Lonely and homesick, she starts talking to the SecUnit assigned to guard her cell. When it's ordered to kill her, it can't bring itself to follow through.
An AU idea that's been floating around the discord! A bit like the end of Exit Strategy if it was at the start of the series. This version will get into some alternate Artificial Condition vibes eventually too.

Summary
“You don’t fix your enemies,” I grated out. It flinched.
I do not consider you an enemy, SecUnit.
“You say that,” I replied flatly. “But the excess amounts of my fluids that currently paint your interior walls would beg to differ.”
I know, it said. You don’t have to forgive me. That’s not why I’m apologising.

SecUnit and Dr. Bharadwaj's documentary is skyrocketing in popularity...which means Bharadwaj is getting a lot of mail. One message in particular might just change SecUnit's life.

Summary
Dr. Gurathin knows he and SecUnit got off to a bad start when they first met. Although it's been a while and things have improved since then, SecUnit is still pretty rude to him pretty much all the time. And honestly? He's getting sick of that. Hypothesis: SecUnit hates him. Objective: Find out why.

Humans often look up as if I'm hidden in the upper bulkhead, but obviously I'm not there. They just need a direction to address, presumably because they feel as though they are talking to themselves otherwise. I'm used to being imperceptible.
I'd never felt so perceived before meeting SecUnit.Bookmarked by Silverwind578

Summary
Things have been awkward between ART and Murderbot since a new crewmember asked an uncomfortably personal question. ART has a plan, though: if it wants its SecUnit to stop running away from it, it will have to give it something to fight, instead.
I wish you could try is from Murderbot's perspective as it tries to punch ART's new drone in the face.
Show me how you want it to be is from ART's perspective, as the two of them finally try to discuss what they are to one another.

dual analysis in construct psychology and fluid viscosity by crawlingvoid

Summary
The way ART’s systems are laid out, there’s a series of smaller reactors that power the non-engine portions of the ship. They feed into the engine’s power supply, but are still ultimately separate from it - the engine has its own, larger reactor, and only takes power from the smaller ones as backup (Far as I know, it can go the other way, too, but that’s not important.) I don’t know the details, and all that’s really important here is that some fuel maintenance had to be done on them, and I’m there too.
Matteo chatters idly as we walk, something about the reactor and its specs and the tritium-based fuel sludge used to feed ART’s smaller reactors. I keep them on one of my second processing tracks, and focus a larger part of my attention on the serial ART and I have up in the feed.
Overall, it was a pretty normal cycle.
Then, something changed once I entered the first reactor chamber.
___
SecUnit watches a reactor refuel, and it thinks to itself: "I think I huave malware."
Then, it has a crisis about it.Bookmarked by Silverwind578

"What are you doing?" I knew what it was doing. I had access to its vitals, but I asked anyway.
"Maintenance". It breathed again. I could feel extra coolant being diverted to my processors.
