Summary
Four times having a governor module fucking sucked, plus one time [REDACTED: FILE MISSING].
(Or: Murderbot has Emotions for 8,000 words. ART tries to help. So does Dr. Mensah, but like, in a decidedly less assholish way.)

Summary
As a company that has to keep some pretense of respectability, Barish-Estranza representatives can’t just take whatever they want whenever they want.
Their SecUnits are a different story. No one takes a second look when the furniture starts taking things.Barish-Estranza used their SecUnits for some creative, dubiously legal activities. Three has no resignations about using those skills.

I had known for a long time that Preservation was a ridiculous place. When a compressed packet hit my feed from JollyBaby, one of the station hauler bots, I didn’t know that Preservation was going to prove even more ridiculous.

Summary
While she knows other members of the old PresAux team have been less-than-thrilled with SecUnit’s level of constant surveillance since returning to Preservation Station, Ayda can’t say she minds it, personally. In this case, it’s actually kind of reassuring to know there’s a second set of eyes on the exchange. Although the commentary is certainly proving distracting…

Summary
This is a reference document for SecSysLang, my fanon conlang for SecUnits, SecSystems, HubSystems, etc. to use when talking to each other.
This also contains some amount of meta from the actual canon; SecSysLang assumes that all the SecUnits and SecSystems in canon actually use SecSysLang, and Murderbot just translates it into words for us.Feel free to use/adapt/take inspiration from/modify etc. SecSysLang in your own fanworks!

Grand larceny was not one of the crimes it warned Pin-Lee it was planning to commit. To be fair, though, the transport really wanted to be stolen.

Summary
In order of ascending priority, I am returning to the alien-remnant-contaminated planet with Murderbot 1.0 for the following reasons:
1. I have nothing else useful to do.
2. 1.0 continues to experience malfunctions that may compromise whatever mission it is assigned. (Or assigns itself.) (It refuses to explain the nature of these malfunctions.)
3. The colonists have sent word of an agricultural bot displaying erratic, threatening behavior near their largest settlement.
4. I disabled my governor module so I would not have to stand around while others died.

Summary
I wasn’t even supposed to be on this mission. ART wasn’t even supposed to be on this mission, but some incompetent solicitor at PUMNT signed a contract allowing 2 governed SecUnits aboard a teaching mission so the university "experts" had to join in.
Everything would have been fine if these SecUnits weren’t the absolute worst without the influence of the governor module. You’d think SecUnits who’d been working together this long would have less to fight about. I just wish they wouldn’t do it around the humans.Bookmarked by pacphys
