Tale Recursion
Murderbot fics about media, transformative works, fandom.
Tags used in this collection:
- #The Murderbot Diaries in-universe: fics that involve Murderbot having shared its "The Murderbot Diaries" to the world
- #Characters create fanworks: fics where MBD characters create fanworks
- #Characters as fans: fics where MBD characters otherwise participate in stuff because they are Fans; visiting the stage sets of Sanctuary Moon, etc.
- #Media night: fics about consuming media. (The focus of the work, not incidental. Otherwise we would include nearly every fic.)
- #Fandom: the rest of the fics that don't fit into the above buckets, that are still very much about #FandomWhen a function calls another one, that's recursion.
When the last thing a function does is call another function, that's useful for technical reasons (compiler optimization) so it has it's own name: a "tail call"
Ergo: "Tale Recursion"(Thanks stellatedHexahedron for the baller collection title)

Summary
"Secunit, you need a hobby that isn't just watching serials."
And that's how I accidentally started a social feed account with a cult following. It's not my fault humans have an obsession with my opinions.aka Murderbot discovers space twitter and commits crimes against corporate entities (ART is helping!)

The ping came from Ratthi with a newscast attached. "From the creators of VALOROUS DEFENDERS comes STARCROSSED SYSTEMS—a SecUnit love story."
No thanks, I replied.
Um, Ratthi said, you should really take a look at this.
