    Summary

    New ops agents always come with a few quirks. Jazz knows how to manage the usual bad habits (arson, stealing, the urge to stab when surprised...).

    Prowl’s adjustment period is less straightforward.

    Summary

    It’s not that I wasn’t curious, and it’s not like there wasn’t a more logical part of me that knew that this was terrible security procedure, even if I didn’t hear a peep from risk assessment (what else is new?). But on a deeper level, I knew there wasn’t any risk.

    I wanted ART to prove it to me.

    I wanted to go in blind and know that it wouldn’t hurt me, and that it would stop if I asked it to. I wanted to let ART in and not have to think about it.

    Summary

    My route has another projected 4.7 seconds. I tried so fucking hard to get to you, to outrun that fucking CSU. Unfortunately, that’s when the CSU shoots me in my power cord.

    I only have enough time to send a single, panicked message to you, telling you to get the hell out of here, before I suffer an emergency shutdown.

    Summary

    This is Murderbot's first time leading an undercover operation with ART's crew. The goal: investigate ArguScylla, a company known for renting out used SecUnits. It should be a simple, in-and-out mission. Run around and steal proprietary data while Iris runs interference. But something is weird about ArguScylla's SecSys. Really, really weird

    Summary

    It was a partial lie, what I told Iris earlier. I am sure I would like to continue this line of testing. What I am unsure about is if SecUnit would like to.
