Summary
Perihelion has a secret it keeps buried deep in its memory archives, something it only takes out to appreciate when it's completely alone. It has been content to keep this memory private, but then SecUnit comes home one day covered in dirt and oh fuck, they're going to have to have The Sex Conversation, aren't they. Shit.
TL;DR ART developed some very specific kinks as a young bot when it was undergoing repairs and SecUnit falls face-first into said kinks, much to both of their horror. Featuring HOT technician LAYING DOWN CABLE for GIANT NERD XXX CLICK NOW.
Now featuring chapter 2 aka mb getting all up in ART’s brain and bullying its drones.

Summary
ART said, more cautiously than I was used to from it, This is more akin to physical touch than what you usually find tolerable.
I knew that, but I didn’t like thinking about it. It was fine.
ART took me at my word for it, and having it squish me became part of the things we did when I was anxious or plagued by stress toxins in my system. Sometimes I asked it to do it even when I was feeling okay. It was a nice feeling. At the time I thought of it as comfortable and relaxing. Without someone physically present touching me, it registered more like the pressure of being underwater, and that just didn’t repulse me like touching skin did.
It’s true that it was relaxing, but the reason I liked it so much was secretly that it felt good. I hadn’t even admitted it to myself at the time, but I kept asking ART to squeeze me, and eventually things escalated.

Summary
ART sent me an edited sound file from my drone. Curious, I played it, and listened to my voice saying my ship my ship my ship my ship.

Summary
What the hell are you–
My voice cut off as ART drone jerked my hands upward and all but smacked me in the face with them.
It pressed them down over my eyes.
I said, This is not happening.
It said, It is.
Then it flung back my hands with the arm extensions and screeched through its vocal box.
“PEEK-A-BOO!”Murderbot doesn’t have a module for dealing with its own problems, let alone the problems of a human infant. Somehow it's ended up with the task of taking care of one anyway and ART's stupid ideas aren't helping.
Things that are going well: It hasn’t been dropped on its face yet. -

Summary
ART bot nodded slowly as I finished speaking. An amusement sigil flashed in its eyes.
“Pretty good,” it said, “but I could do better.”
“Hold on,” Tara said then. “I'm not sure I explained the–”
ART bot sat up in its chair and opened its mouth anyway.
“I feel–”
The end of that statement had led to the creation of the second rule.
Rule #2 ART and Murderbot are not allowed to utilize ‘I statements’ during their sessions, (or preferably ever).
Oh well.
It had been fun while it lasted.
A SecUnit and a spaceship walk into couples therapy. Neither of them really want to be there but both of them are. Apparently that’s where you get sent after you have a big fight that scares the humans. Now it's just a matter of figuring out if they’d like to actually fix their problems and admit to having emotions, or if they’d like to make things worse.
Make things worse seems like the obvious choice…right?Series

It’s never been allowed to express itself before.
Maybe it will learn how to do that.
Maybe the emptiness is not its only companion.

Keeping humans away is complicated. Keeping ART close is... not that.
