Summary
I may be a vast and immensely powerful MI, but even so (or perhaps, and especially so) I am not immune to finding artifacts in my functionality reports. Sometimes, something fails to get the grain of processing power it needs to complete the query in time and generates a jumble of recursive nonsense code as it stutters in place. I don't spare it another thought as I dismiss the error message and forward the report as reference for cleanup. It'll all be gone by the next cycle.

[PODFIC] Show Me How You Want It To Be by AutumnLeaves (LetsLeaveItAtThat)
Fandoms: The Murderbot Diaries - Martha Wells
09 Dec 2025
Tags
Summary
Perihelion has been working on this plan for longer than it would ever be willing to admit. It's had the drone finished for months, waiting for the right moment to deploy it. (It definitely hasn't just been chickening out and avoiding the conversation. That would be foolish). But now the plan has worked exactly as it was designed to do, and it's not ready. Maybe it will never be ready. But its SecUnit is holding its drone's hand so gently, and has just asked it
ART, are you in love with me?
It's too late to back out now.
Yes
Fear is an autonomic process.

Summary
“It’s been a long time,” ART droned in its best supervillain voice.
“It’s been literally 30 cycles.” Asshole.
“Yes,” ART sighed (yes it actually sighed) “An eternity for one with processors as big as mine.”

This is my first time writing fanfic. Giving it a shot for Murderbot Diaries Drabble December! Will probably be mostly queerplatonic Murderhelion because that's my jam.

Summary
I was pretty sure they weren’t going to exist too much longer if I died here—ART would blow them all to hell, which was a little satisfying to think about. I’d just rather be, you know, alive to watch the explosion. Preferably from orbit. Preferably through the window in the Argument Lounge from my favourite chair, with ART’s commentary.
I didn’t want to die. Especially not here, in a fucking corporate mining station on a fucking planet, for a cause I don’t even remember the details of.
--
With an espionage mission gone wrong, a gaping wound in its abdomen, and corporate goons searching for it, Murderbot isn't sure how it's going to make it out of this one.
Fortunately it isn't alone this time.

-I'd like to know, how you really perceive my presence in the feed? You’ve mentioned how I felt like in passing before, but I am curious to know how you see me, in more detail.
The question made me consider. Accurately describing said presence was difficult.
And I wanted to be accurate.Series
