    Summary

    I sent ART the edited file along with a snapshot of my recent haptic sensor logs, which mostly looked like [deleted] [deleted] [deleted].

    ART took a moment to process that. Your difficulty with physical touch extends beyond merely touching or being touched by humans, it surmised.

    I guess, yeah. I bristled at calling it a ‘difficulty’: it wasn't hard to touch things, I just didn't like doing it. But I had a system for dealing with that, so whatever, it wasn't an issue.

    ---

    Or, ART wants to make Murderbot comfortable. (And yes, it would like to feel that for itself, too.)

    Summary

    Gurathin loans Murderbot his genitals during a medical emergency. It's...not as bad as it could be.

    Noncon warning is for the inherent nature of the trope - these two are being as respectful of each other as they can manage (so, not VERY).

    Summary

    Without a cubicle to reset its endocrine system, Murderbot goes into heat. Gurathin would normally be the last person it would turn to for the kind of help it now needs, but he smells so good.

     

    With him, at least I wasn't at risk of anything emotionally complicated.

    Summary

    You can’t be this stupid, ART said, which was insulting but also relieving, because it never talked to me that way during the trauma treatment. Maybe this wouldn’t turn into a BARF after all. Turn off your governor module, you idiot. It’s giving you brain worms.
