    Summary

    “It’s an invitation to go to a university and talk to some bots, what’s to make of it?” I said. Then the obvious reason behind Bharadwaj asking occurred to me. Oh, great. “Don’t tell me you’re actually thinking about going?”

    “I’m considering it,” Bharadwaj said. “I set my own schedule these days, and I would very much like to speak with the bots they’ve been working with, if nothing else.”

    I sighed. I like sighing at appropriate moments, and I think I’m pretty good at it at this point. “There are bots on Preservation.”

    “True, but the Pansystem University of Mihira and New Tideland has one of the most advanced programs in this section of the galaxy for the construction and study of higher-level bots!” Bharadwaj said, making one of those hand gestures she liked for emphasis.

    AU after Fugitive Telemetry. Bharadwaj, Mensah, and Gurathin take a trip to do some research and rapidly uncover more than they'd bargained for. Why did Murderbot tag along on this low-risk research trip? Listen, don't worry about it.

    Summary

    Mensah’s hand lands on Gurathin’s shoulder, and it’s all he can do to shore up under it. They just got her back. This is absolutely going to put her at risk again, and he knows that as well as she does. It puts all of them at risk.

    It’s just that it doesn’t matter. If the cost of her life, of all their lives, is SecUnit’s death? He’s not paying.

    SecUnit won't consider any plans that involve putting its humans in danger. Fortunately for SecUnit, its humans are more than happy to consider those plans for themselves.

    Summary

    It's just some work under the table, a little extra currency as a hedge against an uncertain future. Nothing life-changing. Right?
