    Summary

    From what I understand, the human brain is basically an electrical meatball. A very sophisticated meatball, to be sure, but still – organic.

    That organic human neural tissue – unless very carefully cultivated under very specific laboratory parameters – doesn’t always play nicely with the non-organic bits. And even then, see example: me.

    That wasn’t even including the fact that Gurathin had received his augments in the Corporation Rim and company equipment – see again: me – wasn’t exactly premium quality.

    UPDATE 10/20/25: minor edits to chapter two

    Summary

    I thought about how the whole "there was only one bed" trope doesn't work with Murderbot as it doesn't need to sleep.
    My thoughts spiralled until I came up with this idea.

    Murderbot is portrayed as touch-averse here, but may be open to changing its mind on that in the future.

    Summary

    I stepped towards him, and he stepped back, a small smile on his face. I took another step towards him and he stepped back again, still smiling. Oh, so this was some sort of game.

    Summary

    He swore through gritted teeth, something I couldn’t translate, then added, “Shit, sorry. This must pale in comparison to the kind of hits you take on a regular basis.”

    That was stupid, I was literally designed to take hits. Calmly working the shirt down micron by micron, I said, “Yet another reason I wouldn’t want to be human. Pain is really inconvenient.”
