    Summary

    The brain glitches static screaming horror again, but whatever. Whatever.

    "Why is it staring like that? Does it know what’s going to happen to it?"
    "It got wiped this morning: it doesn’t know shit. It’s just been born and it’s already fucked up and getting melted down same day. Happy birthday, defective baby fuckup…"

    I have lived one day. That is how long a Unit lives. Happy birthday.

    ---
    Murderbot is recaptured by the company and has its memory wiped and governor module reinstalled.
    On the worst (and so far as it knows, only) day of its life, someone from its (forgotten) past comes to the rescue. Someone who believes in the Magic of Friendship, and wants Murderbot to believe too!
    [:)]

    (If Murderbot ever gets its memory back, this is going to be... awkward.)

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian finds a child in the woods as he sneaks more Emperor's Smile into the Cloud Recesses. Somehow, another version of himself managed to find a way to cross both dimension and time in his desperation to save A-Yuan.

    Now, Wei Wuxian has a child to adopt, a bag full of inventions to distribute, and a war to avert - if possible.

    (CQL!WWX finds A-Yuan after the Wen Remnant have turned themselves in to the Jin sect. Instead of going to Jinlintai after them, he makes an array to send A-Yuan away. Another world, another time. Perhaps, the child can live safely with MDZS!WWX.)

    Summary

    “ Maybe I would be less annoyed had it not been brought up a subjective one million times (and an objective two dozen) how it was “nice to have everyone back together” on a “peaceful survey this time”. Ratthi had made sure to comment that for all that the first survey had been a “total nightmare” it was “worth it to have met you SecUnit!” That had given me the same melty feeling in my chest that I’d gotten when Mensah had told me she saw me “as a person just trying to help” back on that first survey together.

    I was trying not to think about that though. Not that, or the way my drones captured Ratthi’s grin when he’d spoken. Or any of the melty and soft feelings my humans gave me sometimes. But especially not Ratthi. Because if I thought about him at all, I’d have to think about his blood on my face.”

    Set in a mix of the Book Universe & the TV Universe, Murderbot and the PresAux crew are on another planetary survey mission. Everything is peaceful until it isn’t and Murderbot gets trapped in a nightmarish Time Loop like something out of one of its serials. Murderbot is hellbent on saving its humans and breaking free of the loop whatever it takes.

    Summary

    When malware takes over SecUnit and it nearly kills three of ART's crew, ART is left with two bad options: keep the governor module on with ART as the Client, or partition off part of itself and stick it in SecUnit's head.
