    Summary

    I flex my gloved fingers.

    “Just how much power are you giving me, exactly?”

    “All of it. Everything.”

    “Wow, that's. Wow. Are you sure?”

    Rocky makes a keening, high pitched vocalisation that I can feel in my chest.

    “I love you. It's the entire point.”

    I bury my blazing face in my hands.

    “Rocky, you can't just say things like that.”

    “I can and I will. Where does the medical robot keep the lubricant?”

    Summary

    I’d locked eyes with Mensah, looking like that. My energy weapons had deployed, without my awareness or direction. My targeting systems had identified her and Bharadwaj, quite insistently, as direct and immediate threats.

    Maybe this is just a temporary, dangerous, system glitch, and a hard restart will fix me. I’ll just restart, comb through my code, do some debugging, find the corrupted files or whatever, and then I won’t indiscriminately murder my most trusted humans.

    I should know by now to always assume the worst.

    In which SecUnit is having some survival threat…response errors. And some…’targeting its humans’ malfunctions. And some…blackouts when restarting. I’m sure it’s fine.

    Summary

    The inherent eroticism of being perceived with curiosity and without judgment. Or, what if you were on your way to Tau Ceti e to save the world, and your alien best friend watched you get off for science, and then you learned some interesting xenoanthropological facts about Eridian mating customs? Well, it happened to my buddy Ryland Grace.


    "You can see?" I whisper.

    "I hear." Rocky matches my quiet tone. "I hear everything."

    And that's interesting, because those words fuse white-hot with my pulse, and earth themselves with a thump between my legs, and all of a sudden I'm not soft anymore.

    Okay. Yeah. We're way past being shy.

    Summary

    In which Murderbot is critically injured and ART refuses to let go.

    Murderbot POV.

    Guaranteed happy ending after we are done suffering. Guaranteed no fic abandonment unless I'm hit by a bus.

    This is very indulgent hurt/comfort.
