There was no bed by TheRosetteThief

Summary
I thought about how the whole "there was only one bed" trope doesn't work with Murderbot as it doesn't need to sleep.
My thoughts spiralled until I came up with this idea.Murderbot is portrayed as touch-averse here, but may be open to changing its mind on that in the future.

Summary
What happens in Episode 9 after Murderbot's “death” and before Episode 10 wherein it wakes up back with The Company?
The book mentions that while a ship from the wormhole will take five days to arrive, they’ll probably send someone faster because of Mensah's status as Planetary Admin. However, that still leaves two to three days where Murderbot is unconsciousness and in a state of catastrophic failure.
What does PresAux do? How do they get it back to the habitat? Do they try to revive it? How? And how are they all feeling in the wake of these revelations and the SecUnit's sacrifice?

Summary
From what I understand, the human brain is basically an electrical meatball. A very sophisticated meatball, to be sure, but still – organic.
That organic human neural tissue – unless very carefully cultivated under very specific laboratory parameters – doesn’t always play nicely with the non-organic bits. And even then, see example: me.
That wasn’t even including the fact that Gurathin had received his augments in the Corporation Rim and company equipment – see again: me – wasn’t exactly premium quality.
