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
Mark tucks his phone in the back pocket of his jeans, then, instead of knocking, goes right for the doorknob, curling his fingers around the cold brass and twisting. It’s actually locked. Somehow, he hadn’t been expecting that. He pauses, struggling to figure out what the next step should be, but then through the wood there’s a gruff voice, the same one that scrapes something in his gut every time he hears it in his dreams. It’s a thousand times worse in person.
“What do you want?”
Fury flares in Mark, hot and salient like that last fight had just taken place yesterday, not ten months ago. “I want to know what the fuck you’re doing here, Damien.”
There’s a good ten seconds of silence, and then, much softer, imbued with some emotion that Mark can’t make out past the pounding in his ears: “Mark?”
“Open the goddamn door.”

Prompted mainly by: "Any of my internal organs you desire for a fic where damien gives mark an apology blowjob as a last resort" & "Damien in general groveling and begging on his knees for Mark to give him anything at all is...quite the mental image." - fan discord

Summary
“Our line sustained a lot of damage when - with everything that happened yesterday.” Adam traces the line that flows perpendicular across the state, extending it westward. “It set off a kind of chain reaction that’s made it leaky in a lot more places than just Henrietta. If we want the power of the line back, I’m going to have to travel to fix it.”
The power of the line back. Blue looks up at Adam sharply, hope swelling in her chest. “You mean - Noah? We can get Noah back?”
“That’s the plan,” Gansey says, resting his hand lightly over her fingers, which are still clutching his shoulder. The fervent light filling his eyes makes sense to her now. This is Gansey without Glendower. This is Gansey with a new, even more desperate quest.Or; Post TRK, the Raven Gang goes on a Feels Trip. I mean a Road Trip. Sure.
NOTE: written pre-TRK, thus, is not TRK compliant.Series

Summary
Henry’s fingers spread and wiggle in a ‘ta-da’ sort of motion, dissolving the imaginary boxes as if he’s done a magic trick. Gansey thinks perhaps he has, as the proverbial lightbulb flickers to life above his own head. “Oh,” he says, and nods a little. “Are you saying you’re – would you call it transgender?”
(Included in the trans!Ronan series, and he is mentioned, but really it's the Everyone Should Just Be Trans series at heart, because that is my agenda)

Summary

Summary
SecUnit will see through its drone views that Three is approaching the lounge, and slide down off its favourite padded chair onto the floor without ceremony. And Three, seeing it when it enters the room, will silently lie down next to it, shoulder to shoulder.
---
Or, how the floor becomes the foundation for: peace, friendship, security, and life.

Summary
“It’s an invitation to go to a university and talk to some bots, what’s to make of it?” I said. Then the obvious reason behind Bharadwaj asking occurred to me. Oh, great. “Don’t tell me you’re actually thinking about going?”
“I’m considering it,” Bharadwaj said. “I set my own schedule these days, and I would very much like to speak with the bots they’ve been working with, if nothing else.”
I sighed. I like sighing at appropriate moments, and I think I’m pretty good at it at this point. “There are bots on Preservation.”
“True, but the Pansystem University of Mihira and New Tideland has one of the most advanced programs in this section of the galaxy for the construction and study of higher-level bots!” Bharadwaj said, making one of those hand gestures she liked for emphasis.
-
AU after Fugitive Telemetry. Bharadwaj, Mensah, and Gurathin take a trip to do some research and rapidly uncover more than they'd bargained for. Why did Murderbot tag along on this low-risk research trip? Listen, don't worry about it.

Summary
I had been incredibly skeptical when Ratthi had sent me ‘Midnight Eclipse.’ I knew what fanfiction was, I had seen it in the more niche entertainment feeds before. Never specifically for Sanctuary Moon, but I'd assumed it existed. That didn't mean I had any actual interest in it, though. When I had first looked at them, I hadn't liked them. The quality varied too much and a lot of them weren't finished, or were really short, or really out of character. And I hated that. I really really hated that.
This one was different.

Summary
Being left unobserved to just do my job was... nice.
It was nice. This was a nice contract. I didn't think those two words could be put together in that order.
(Or; Murderbot's latest group of clients are weird. They don't seem at all wary of the potential dangers of the planet, and they're both uncannily aware of how to navigate around SecUnit and completely heedless of the very real threat it poses. Which could mean nothing at all.)
