    Summary

    When Murderbot gets (almost) fatally injured during a routine mission it has to deal with the emotional fallout from itself, all of its humans, one paranoid machine intelligence with enough power to make sure it never goes anywhere again, and the damage it does to one interpersonal relationship. Ugh, so many emotions.

    Summary

    Staying online that long and bored made the flashbacks worse. Yes, I’d come to the conclusion that any memory previous to my rebuild couldn’t be trusted. This was fine. I wasn’t mourning my old reality.

    Pearl knew from the moment she saw him that he wasn't the real Grian. She saw it in his strange purple eyes and cold-to-the-touch skin. She knew he was something else, of a higher power, and that her Grian was long gone, decaying into code somewhere.

    OR:

    Five times Grian didn't understand, and one time he did.
