    Summary

    There was a Tumblr post I saw that was poking holes in Murderbot’s whole "I don't eat food, I don't produce waste, I'm not human with human needs, yada yada yada” attitude. They theorized that Murderbot’s cubicle acted like a dialysis machine that recharged its not-blood with all the things a biologically alive thing needs to stay alive. Well, Murderbot hasn't exactly been in contact with a cubicle for a while now has it? ART has come up with a fun (for it) way to solve that problem.

    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

    SecUnits don't play games. Perhaps, though, they can do something similar. AKA Three is still getting used to freedom, and in a way, so is Murderbot. They work it out together.
