Summary
Many species of birds moult twice a year once they have reached adulthood, resulting in them having two plumages: a basic plumage (which is usually fairly plain) and a breeding (or nuptial) plumage, which is the most colourful plumage for many bird species and is displayed during the courtship season when birds are trying to attract mates.
Read into this what you like.

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
Hostile engaging. Abort mission. I sent it on instinct, even though I knew it was much too late for that.
What's going on? I could feel ART poking through my sensor data, trying to figure out what had made my threat assessment spike. Its tone was urgent, but calm. It wasn't sure yet if there was a legitimate threat or I was just having a Moment again.
The answer was probably a solid "both".
All of my organic parts told me to run.
Most of my inorganic parts also told me to run.
Feed ID: Negotiator Joslin
Gender: fem-neutralI shoved the feed ID at ART.
The negotiator?, it asked.
She used to work for the company. She'll identify me as a SecUnit.

Summary
After Murderbot leaves Port FreeCommerce, it accidentally ends up on a station in the middle of an attempted corporate takeover. Trapped by the crossfire and lockdown, Murderbot is sure its short-lived freedom is over. Then the injured human next to it makes an offer—get her to the MedSystem on her ship, and she’ll provide a ride off the station.

Summary
When Three's pulmonary system is compromised during a mission, Murderbot lets it borrow one of its lungs. Shenanigans ensue.
We were planning to tell ART about the lung situation right after I took a recharge cycle, I promise. But then one thing led to another and before we knew it we were standing at the airlock, ready to be deployed on our next mission.

Summary
I was allowed to interact with home equipment, meaning if I cared to speak to anyone, there were plenty of options:
- Tseyvar Frakes’ personal SecUnit. (I didn’t care to talk to this one, but it did exchange security information with me, which I guess was okay because it improved my performance reliability.)
- HomeHubSystem. (This was an AI Tseyvar put in charge of HubSystem. Do not do this.)
- HomeHubSystem’s maintenance bots. (Recently found out these were autonomous. I hadn’t even checked.)
I did not have permission to speak to:
- Tseyvar Frakes’ FamUnit.
