    Summary

    “ART,” I managed, voice pitched up just a little. “What are you doing?”

    Part of the touch on my chest slid up to cup my jaw. It was— warm. Gentle? It was weird and unexpected and I scooted away until my lower back hit the couch’s armrest, which obviously did nothing. `My beautiful SecUnit,' ART said, and my breath hitched oddly. It’s the malware, Murderbot, it’s the fucking malware. Keep it together. 'You still haven’t realized what’s happening? You still don’t understand what I’m going to do to you?'

    Summary

    Perihelion's presence bears down on me in the feed. I do not think that it can read my mind, but it feels like it is trying to. I am bleeding something into the feed, but I do not know what. I am being scrutinized, picked apart, ogled.

    What?

    All of my organics feel tense. I… want to watch the videos you gave me.

    Do you require my permission to do so?

    No.

    Then watch them.

    Summary

    It used to be, when I was a much younger MI, that dropping my crew off at PSUMNT so that I could go on a solo run was one of my least favorite activities. Second only to actually going on the long, boring slog of a solo cargo run.

    Now, I find my engines subtly vibrating with anticipation as I watch my crew step out of the airlock and onto the docks.

    Most of my crew, anyway. My SecUnit lingers in the open hatchway, speaking quietly with Seth and Martyn.

    Murderbot and ART alone on a cargo mission, finding ways to keep themselves occupied. And by "finding" I mean Murderbot has discovered a new way to make its partner squirm.
