Curiosity kills by Soowshie
Fandoms: Project Hail Mary (2026), Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir

Summary
Something was standing above his towel.
No… someone.
They seemed to be observing the towel, claws tapping against the material with what he took as curiosity, pinching it between the appendage.
Was it Rocky? It’d make sense, the Eridian would certainly have something harsh to say about him leaving his stuff laying around. He always had some mean quip to insult his shoddy human memory.
He opened his mouth to defend himself before Rocky could say something snappy, when the figure then moved, stocky legs rising from beneath their carapace and lifting them to their full standing height.
They were tall. Too tall.
That wasn’t Rocky.
OR
Grace receives an unexpected visitor one night in his home on Erid.

Summary
Grace sighs. Rocky got distracted by a lot and it always felt like his mind was going through multiple strands of thought at a time. A puny human brain could never hope to get on his level of sophistication. However, for some reason, the eridian had decided Grace was worth his attention.
(Really, it made Grace feel warm, but he would sooner be caught floating in space then admitting that)
So, now Rocky was looking right at Grace instead of messing with the computer which means Grace would not be getting any form of peace for the next hour. He needs a distraction to get him off his back.
“Do you miss Erid, Rocky?”
or
Rocky and Grace both miss home and what they left behind. In order to make his friend feel better, Grace reveals something he was scared to tell the eridian. Bravery and fear are two sides of the same coin.Bookmarked by PointlessPoison

The last option involves closing down as many programs as I can get away with without shutting down, including the really important ones. It sounds terrifying, and it is. (Was.) (...Actually, who am I kidding, it’s still terrifying)

(when you move) i can recall something that's gone from me by brahe
Fandoms: The Murderbot Diaries - Martha Wells

Tags
Summary
The present me should feel disgusted by the mess SecUnit made on my deck, on my bulkhead, but I should also feel indifferent to SecUnit’s anger and ferocity, and I should be unaffected by the fluidity and grace of its violence—and I am not. I am so far from indifferent and unaffected that I have, instead, created new pathways within myself for the way I’m actually feeling.
The breathless violence, the ruthless revenge—all for me. It is nothing short of mesmerizing. SecUnit is mesmerizing. I am enraptured.
Or,
ART processes the fragments of its memories from its deletion, and falls in love.

Summary
One of Mensah's children wants to read aloud to SecUnit from a chapter book. What's the worst that could happen?

Summary
And she’s here, and that’s her, your sister: Aha’ri, cradling your face in her warm hands. Tilting your head to look at her, look, but your eyelids are heavy and refuse to cooperate. You see enough through the blur to know that she's older than you remember, slipped pretty pink leaves into her hair, wrapped her chest in yellow silks. It matches her eyes, tinged-green.
Like veilswarm, you think, but something about that screams wrong, screams right, whispers:
Beautiful, you think, my beautiful tsahìk, and her presence does feel the part, doesn't it?
This is how we heal.

Summary
In the middle of rewinding through its memory, it received another ping from Three.
Confused, Murderbot sent a ping in response, expecting a message or another form of communication. Instead, it received nothing but a short burst of three pings, clearly some pointed reply, although Murderbot didn’t have the faintest idea of what it could mean. It sent back one more ping as if to acknowledge, and then there was silence.
‘It has been doing that this entire time.’ ART said through a private feed connection between it and Murderbot. Murderbot tried to see what was happening with its leg, but couldn’t sit up enough to get a good look.

Summary
SecUnit watched as Iris’ flashlight beam cut in front of it through the darkened hallway, nothing more than emergency lights illuminating their path. It walked in front, its boots crunching against broken pieces of artificial stone and other debris, faint markings on the ground barely guiding their path through the abandoned mining installation.
Parts of SecUnit’s organics quivered in unease at the familiarity of the place, glimpses of neural memory threatening to push up into the front of its mind. It shoved them back as far as it possibly could. Its performance reliability dropped by a small margin, but it ignored it.
Most corporate mining installations looked the same on the surface, that was all. They had the same above-ground habitats and construction that were made out of the cheapest materials from the lowest bidder. It was all the same.
