Summary
"Is this about their latest SecUnit rescue subject?" ART asked. Nosy fucker; I should have known it would have bullied the other bot pilot for details.
"SecUnit extraction," I corrected, to be pedantic. Or is it pediatric? Whatever, I wasn't going to ask.
"So it is about that project?" ART plowed forward. "I am not surprised they want your input. You are one of the more valuable information sources they have."
"I just feel like they're setting themselves up for failure," I admitted. "Their newly freed SecUnits keep trying to self-destruct."
There was a .5 second pause. In the feed, it felt like an eternity. "I see," ART said, not sounding so smug anymore. "Yes, that is distressing."

Or, the first (sort of) organized suicide prevention effort for SecUnits.Bookmarked by Bablis

Summary
You are currently nearly five minutes late for our planned rendezvous, and have been incommunicado for seven minutes prior. Our contingency plan dictates that should you be more than ten minutes late to our rendezvous, the rest of the crew and myself will leave you behind to escape on your own. Fortunately for you, I think this plan is stupid.
Murderbot disappears on a mission. Three finds it and brings it back to life.

Summary
Murderbot learns what promotions are and why it's important to some humans (and SecUnits) to get that kind of recognition.
And along the way it realizes that it has friends who will help it with weird stuff like dealing with Human Resources.

Summary
“How the fuck was it not a weapon?” 1.0 demands angrily. “You’d have used it to cause harm.”
“Only to myself. That doesn’t count.”
1.0 stares at me as if I said something completely logically unsound. “Three,” it says with minimal vocal inflection. “What the fuck.”
I cannot determine an appropriate (safe?) response, so I do not respond.

Summary
“Rise and shine,” ART said. “We’ll be approaching the port soon enough.”
I wasn’t looking forward to it. In the endless ocean, I could pretend like the matrix of pledges sewn into my skin didn’t matter. On shore, I was horrifically aware of them at every moment. Many humans had some promises etched into their skin, but I wasn’t human, and almost every inch of my skin was covered with glyphs of binding, preservation, and power.
