Summary
Three years after the probes carrying Taumoeba and Dr. Ryland Grace's final message arrive on Earth, humanity launches an interstellar spaceship with a brand new mission. Thirty-six crew members (including two graduates of a certain San Franciscan junior high school) travel to the star 40-Eridani to make friendly contact with the Eridians and bring them the alien life form from Tau Ceti-E that can save their star if Dr. Grace's sacrifice failed.
Grace, now fifty-seven years old, is just trying to balance his life as a teacher while no longer being the only human on the planet anymore. It's a big adjustment, but Rocky and the Terra's Grace crew are going to make sure he's well taken care of.

Known Exploited Vulnerability by laxlyricism for glitterary
Fandoms: The Murderbot Diaries - Martha Wells
14 May 2026

Summary
A Known Exploited Vulnerability, or KEV, is a documented security flaw in software, hardware, or firmware that has been exploited in real-world attacks.
ART and Murderbot have faced the horror of talking about their emotions and come out the other side. Maybe they glossed over the sex stuff a little, but that's not important; sex isn't part of their relationship. Anyway, there are certain things ART would prefer to keep private, and Murderbot would prefer not to know. But when Murderbot comes back aboard acting strangely, the cracks in their fragile arrangement start to show.
Note: If you prefer to avoid sexual content in your TMBD fics, you can consider "Show Me How You Want It To Be" the proper end of the series and skip this one.

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?

Holism
This is the most pathetically purple prose I have ever encountered. It's falsely aping an ancient fairy tale style with none of the grace or flow. Perhaps you ought to enroll in PUMNT-WRIT101: Welcome to Writing Fiction.Leaping Between Worlds

Summary
I skim the instruction document and pull the complex code file into the station’s processing space. I don’t think I’ve ever been this anxious for something to work, for something to happen. I know I’ve never been this desperate. Please—
The lights flicker, shutting off for hardly even a second before they turn back on, and maybe it’s just me and my faulty-ass organic parts and the emotional breakdown I’m maybe probably definitely having, but it feels like the air is different. It feels like—
Or,
A coda/minor rewrite for (mostly) ch. 7–8 in Network Effect.

“What are we looking at, time-wise?” I ask.
Three hours until full collapse, maybe two and a half before irreversible abstraction, and— For a moment, it pauses, but not as if it's nervous. It pauses in a way that punctuates its next statement. Two before you need to terminate my kernel.
Lightning shoots up my spine. “I'm not doing that.”

Summary
Five times SecUnit's humans saw that it loved ART and one time Iris saw it too.
---
Or,
It is common knowledge that Perihelion is an obsessive psychopath when it comes to being right, and that it is similarly obsessive over producing high-quality empirical evidence to vindicate itself (whether anyone else even cares that much or not).
It is not common knowledge that its sister has, unfortunately, also picked up this habit.
So when SecUnit disagrees with Iris over something and watches her turn around and leave without argument, it has no idea what is coming.
Well, kind of.

I come back from the dead.
Something happened. Something happened just now— I came back from the dead, yes, I know, I'm not talking about this, something before that— beyond, even, there was a recognition, a realization, somehow much more important than the hostiles I am currently grinding to dust on my deck, more important, even, than SecUnit's humans with their raised hands and SecUnit with its raised voice and myself, raised from my grave. What was it?
"What's going on?" I ask futilely, my voice distorting through the speakers. SecUnit's humans jump, startled. "What the fuck is going on—"
