    Summary

    “Oh, it’s a way for humans to tell each other they’re taken. To remember,” I say, popping a bunch more gummy bears into my mouth. Rocky makes a disgusted sound and I smile as I chew. “It’s just a nice way of showing they have someone they committed to.”

    Rocky freezes. I don’t notice for a good few seconds, not until I get the pressing sensation that he’s staring at me, his lack of eyes irrelevant.

    I turn to face him. He’s jittering, something like shaking from excitement or anger, I’m not sure.

    “Rocky?” I ask.

    Grace have ring,” he points, and oh no.Grace have mate? Why Grace no say!?

    I hold up my hands before he can get too excited, though I can already hear a familiar sound, a repeating joyful and confused song start to escape from him.

    “No, no, no!” he freezes again. Deflates, a little. I sigh and run a hand down my face. “It’s… complicated.”

    Summary

    Years later, on the journey to Erid, remembering this event leads to some interesting discussions with Rocky.

    Summary

    "Come on, show me your masterpiece," Grace said, feeling helplessly charmed. "What's it about?"

    "Is proposal," Rocky said.

    "Oh yeah?" Grace smiled. He stretched his arms up, reaching until his spine popped. Maybe taking a break from his experiments was the right call after all. "Sounds exciting. What are you proposing?"

    "Propose Grace Rocky get married," Rocky said.

    Grace twitched violently, fell sideways off the viewing platform, and banged his elbow hard into DGCR screen six.

     

    Rocky and Grace watch a movie and talk about their friendship. Also they love each other to the ends of the infinite, expanding universe.

    Summary

    Okay, I'm stopping.

    Three exhales until the smell of burning flesh dissipates. The room smells again like Perihelion’s MedBay, sterile and sanitized, every inch of the walls and floor meticulously cleaned. Pain still sears around its back, crackling like flame around its hip and up its spine. It suppresses a shudder.

    Query: Is it over?

    No, I've barely started. You sound like you're dying.

    -

    During a procedure to remove a logo in Three's organics, Perihelion stumbles onto an issue with Three's pain sensors.

    Summary


    Dr. Mensah says, "I love you". Murderbot, who in all its time consuming media has only ever heard those words in a romantic context, reacts poorly.
    Using space soap operas as your only reference for human interactions turns out to not be ideal. Who would've guessed?

    Summary

    Amena wishes her First Mother would stop treating her like a child. She isn't going to get lost at the craft festival! She wants to pick food for lunch, and not have to wait for Gurathin and Pin-Lee to arrive.

    She's having fun though. Gurathin and Pin-Lee and Bharadwaj all treat her like what she says matters. And Gurathin is the best at answering Amena's questions, even when the other adults won't.

    He keeps a lot of secrets though.

    And he just lied to Pin-Lee, Bhardwaj, and First Mom.

    They don't know what Amena knows...

    *

    This is Amena's perspective of a specific scene from Fair Trade plus a bonus flashback scene. Best read after that other work.

    Summary

    "I had another memory glitch, didn't I."

    ...Yes.

    ART was reluctant. It got even more reluctant when I asked it to show me the false memory. Given the subject matter of the scene that initiated your shutdown, I am concerned that showing you would only cause it to re-occur. Eventually I persuaded it to tell me instead of showing me. Apparently it had been a corrupted version of the same clip, but instead of the show characters I had [REDACTED]

    Yeah. Yeah, I know. Just give me a fucking minute.

    Summary

    I said, “Do you like watching media?”

    (I know, I know, but in my experience sharing content from my library of media could get me out of most of the uncomfortable conversations I didn't want to be in with Mensah’s small humans. Except with Amena.)

    Janity crossed her arms and leaned back against the hatchway, her expression unreadable.

    “I like people answering my questions more.”

    Oh for fuck’s–

    Janity has some questions for Murderbot about its dynamic with the preservation humans. Is Murderbot going to put on its big-construct pants and answer them? Or is it going to go stare at a wall until this stupid shuttle finally docks?
