    Summary

    After a high-stress mission, Murderbot ends up having to take drastic measures to bring down its excessively high cortisol levels. While hesitant at first, it finds that the more extreme methods bear little resemblance to their human counterparts and are a useful tool for routine hormonal maintenance.

    And then ART finds out.

    Summary

    Look, it's not exactly easy to steal a shitton of money from a casino corporation.

    They're paranoid as fuck, for starters, almost as paranoid as the company. As a general rule, you don't get nearly that rich by being anything short of obsessively protective of your ill-gotten gains. You're in the business of giving out hard currency to winners; you'd better be fucking sure that no one's hacking anything in your systems. Also, obviously, you have to have a plan for the thousands of rival corporations hoping for/plotting your downfall.

    Basically, what I'm saying is that ART's idea of a relaxing vacation for its very first shore leave (yes, it had been a whole thing. For some reason Tarik had started it, and Pin-Lee and Mensah had gotten involved) was inadvisable from the start.

    -

    Or, Murderbot and ART go on a fun Vegas vacation.

    Summary

    SecUnit will see through its drone views that Three is approaching the lounge, and slide down off its favourite padded chair onto the floor without ceremony. And Three, seeing it when it enters the room, will silently lie down next to it, shoulder to shoulder.

    ---

    Or, how the floor becomes the foundation for: peace, friendship, security, and life.

    Summary

    It's not about humans, I grit out. I haven't— I don't want to hurt humans.

    Then whatever the hell is the issue—

    I hurt you.

    ART is stunned into silence. I cover my face.

    Summary

    in which murderbot is a very normal terracotta soldier and ART the dragon spirit of a chinese junk who dwells in the ship's keel. they meet in the ming dynasty perhaps, when ppl are sailing places extra willy-nilly.

    *Nüwa is the mother goddess in chinese mythology, known for creating humanity from yellow clay and repairing the sky.

    thank you @mutualrapport for hosting the event! original prompt below.

    [drawn for the prompt: an AU of ART and MB's first meeting and conversation - e.g. another look at their first meeting from a fantasy, historical, or (non-canon) sci-fi lens! Any perspective is fine. The only constraint is that it cannot be set in the canon universe. Any visibly non-canon AU- fantasy, human, historical, etc. - anything goes!]

    Summary

    This is for the Murderbot Diaries: Mutual Rapport.
    95
    Prompt
    A grand reveal about who is the intended audience for the MB Diaries (other than ASR, which we know was a letter to Mensah): ART convinced MB to keep a log, with the intent of using the materials for a scholarly paper about constructs. Now we get to see the response of the audience, and MB's pride/discomfort with being perceived.
    Bonus Points
    ART helps MB submit its diaries as part of the requirement for an advanced degree. That's Dr. Murderbot now, thank you very much

    All that to say when ART pings me deep into the humans' rest period and tells me to check on Three, I'm only a little surprised to see Three sitting outside the door of my cabin with its back against the wall and its arms wrapped around its knees.

    Summary

    Perihelion leans on both of us in the feed, and I keep my eyes on 1.0's hands, transfixed by the way they're managing to be gentle and exacting at the same time. It knows every seam in the drone's casing, every latch to undo, every screw to unwind. Under its ministrations the drone is coming apart in pieces, and honestly, I sympathize.

    Summary

    I want you to know Iris better, ART said stubbornly. Besides your own crew, you haven’t met any humans who treat bots with kindness and respect.

    “I have too,” I spat back, and then flinched. I hadn’t meant to say that.

    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.

    Jack Frost just wants to be seen. A little hard, when you're a myth among myths, and not even your fellow spirits can see you. It only gets harder when the Man in the Moon decides Jack is to be a Guardian. But how is that even possible, when the only thing that even knows you exist is a little tooth fairy?
    (Or: Jack's heart breaks a lot, Baby Tooth is a damn good friend, and Bunny will eventually make away like a bandit with Jack Frost.)
