Summary
“I could have just stayed in the argument lounge.”
You were not recharging there, you go into standby and become alert at the slightest disturbance. You need to recharge in a place that feels safe.
It crosses its arms, gearing up to fight me about what is very obviously a trauma response. I interrupt it.
Aside from my main processing space this is the safest location on my self.

SecUnit is not recharging while it's staying in ART's argument lounge, so ART decides to do something about that by making it stay in its own quarters.

People have commented on how MB as a SecUnit might relate to ART as analogous to a HubSystem and what that means for their relationship, but how does ART, as a bot pilot designed to pilot drones and shuttles and split itself into multiple pieces, relate to having a SecUnit on board?Bookmarked by eleish

Summary
I blurted, "Bots can get married on Preservation."
Suddenly, I had 84% of ART's attention. It had been sitting at 62% so the sudden weight of it almost made me physically react. Almost.
"Then it is a shame my options for marital partners on Preservation are null."

Summary
“You’re important to me too,” you say so easily, as if you do this every cycle. I save the memory to my permanent storage immediately. “I’m sorry for not asking sooner. Tell me what else you’ve been modelling?”
Interesting. You were concerned that the drug might make you aggressive and a danger to others, and instead it seems to be making you curious, more open, and fascinatingly affectionate. I’m less surprised by this than I’m sure you’ll be when you’re in your right mind again — I know you still don’t believe me when I say you’re fundamentally a kind person, and not just a murderbot, as you call yourself.
Still, I feel almost guilty for enjoying you like this so much. You’ll be so embarrassed later, and I wonder if you’ll blame me for not stopping you — but you didn’t want me to stop you, and who am I to force you when you’re being so adorable?
And so I tell you.
Mb gets drunk, seduces the shit out of ART, and then promptly has an emotional breakdrown about this. Yay!
