    Summary

    ART said, more cautiously than I was used to from it, This is more akin to physical touch than what you usually find tolerable.

    I knew that, but I didn’t like thinking about it. It was fine.

    ART took me at my word for it, and having it squish me became part of the things we did when I was anxious or plagued by stress toxins in my system. Sometimes I asked it to do it even when I was feeling okay. It was a nice feeling. At the time I thought of it as comfortable and relaxing. Without someone physically present touching me, it registered more like the pressure of being underwater, and that just didn’t repulse me like touching skin did.

    It’s true that it was relaxing, but the reason I liked it so much was secretly that it felt good. I hadn’t even admitted it to myself at the time, but I kept asking ART to squeeze me, and eventually things escalated.

    Summary

    Let’s start with the good part.

    I accidentally helped Three (who was also helped by Ratthi and Bharadwaj) invent trauma recovery modules for murderbots. ART unhelped at first, but then it helped. I keep saying help too much but I’m not fucking changing it again, it’s been two hours. Anyways.
    The bad part is everything else that had to happen first. Sane people shouldn’t get anywhere near a SecUnit’s worst memories, which is what we did so you don’t have to. Though I guess if you need the modules, you do have to. That’s kind of the point.

    Well, don’t worry about all the atrocities. There’s no way yours can be worse than mine.

    Summary

    When an inert geological sample turns out to have alarming and anomalous properties, Murderbot must take it, by hand, to a special containment lab on the other side of the station. Without blowing up itself and everyone else.

    No pressure, right?

    Summary

    There’s a lot of things Murderbot no longer remembers because of the memory wipes. It finds a video file of one of those things.

    Summary

    A series of fics following SecUnit003 from immediately after Network Effect through into post-canon Situations(tm). Each instalment involves Three either learning something important about itself as a person or making its life harder by writing overly-complicated programs for itself to follow.

    All parts are listed in chronological order even if publication dates are scattered.
