    Summary

    I don’t know how to explain this to her, SecUnit tells me, and dumps a massive metadata file at me. I’m not sure what it expects me to do to help until I open the file. It’s comprised entirely of tagged interactions between SecUnit and Dr. Mensah.

    This log is deeply personal, and I take great care with it as I move through the data. There’s the first time Mensah spoke to SecUnit directly, the way she made it feel like a person for the first time; there’s a moment on a shuttle where Mensah’s looking up at it, unafraid of its rage; there’s an office, people strew on the floor and a deep relief as Mensah meets SecUnit’s gaze; there’s a hundred little moments, flashes of interactions saved in a permanent archive filled with mutual respect, gratitude, care. I think of earlier, when I wanted to share with SecUnit what my love for my family feels like, but I realize know that it already knows.

     

    Or,

    ART and Murderbot learn some new emotions.

    Summary

    I had several drones and all of ART’s cameras in this room on her. Somehow it still wasn’t enough, so I shifted my eyes from the wall to her, too. I captured her every detail, from the light brown hair curling on her head, to the laughter lines on her face, and the calm and sure way she held herself, even if she was still troubled by the traumatic experiences GrayCris put her through.

    I would see her again, but I didn’t know when, so I made sure to save this image in my permanent storage. I had a special folder where I kept files on all of my humans.

    Murderbot says goodbye to Mensah.

    Summary

    After fleeing the massacre at DeltFall Group, the crew are left with emotional scars, a heavily damaged SecUnit, and even worse problems than before.

    Gurathin is finally going to get the answers he's been looking for. But now the whole crew will be left with a bigger question: what comes next?

    *
    This work covers the time in All Systems Red/Season 1 from when the crew return from the DeltFall Group site up to the point in the book where they flee their habitat. It follows immediately after "Searching for Answers" and is best read after those chapters.

    Mind the tags.

    Additional details for self-harm at the start of the relevant chapter. If you have been reading this series since the first part then 1) Thank you very much! and 2) The self-harm in this work isn't like that. If it is something you want to skip, please read the chapter note when you get there.
