Summary
‘I’m not illiterate,' I said, defensively. ‘I can read.’
I know you can read, said ART. We read One Hundred Light-Years of Solitude together last week and your analysis was very insightful. It paused. It never occurred to me that you might not be able to generate written messages in hardspace.
It's Iris' birthday, and everyone really wants SecUnit to sign her card. There's just one small problem with that.

The mortifying ordeal of revealing a gap in knowledge around something everyone assumes you know (and the beautiful if also mortifying ordeal of figuring things out with people who love you regardless) <3333
Very delightful, and very in-character of them all. Absolutely love this

Summary
The Security Units at Ganaka Pit receive a package tagged as a security patch. The package consists of a bundle of code to be run, paired with a jumble of transcripts and telemetry data.
SecUnit 08 says: This data claims to be from the future.
07 declares: Running this code would render a Governor Module non-functional.

Phil cleared his throat. “Techno, I heard you talkin’ to Ranboo, before.”
The ladle wasn’t in the jar. Or was he missing it? “Mmm, yep.” Techno started taking spoons and spatulas out of the jar and lying them on the counter.
“Are we not—a thing?”
Or: Techno and Phil aren't a couple like that— but what are they?

Summary
This is Murderbot's first time leading an undercover operation with ART's crew. The goal: investigate ArguScylla, a company known for renting out used SecUnits. It should be a simple, in-and-out mission. Run around and steal proprietary data while Iris runs interference. But something is weird about ArguScylla's SecSys. Really, really weird

Summary
The Preservation Auxilliary Survey Team and the PanSystem University of Mihira and New Tideland are teaming up for a survey of a potential colony world. Their mission: make sure there aren't any alien remnants left on it.
Dr. Bharadwaj and Murderbot both have very mixed feelings about the enterprise. She, because it's her first survey since the one she nearly died on. It, because the planet in question is Milu.

Ratthi/Tarik, Bharadwaj/Gurathin
The discoveries! The worldbuilding!! The constructs!!! The SCIENCE!!!!
The (Romantic relation) ships aren't really my cup of tea (in the similar but perhaps less intense way MB's crew's relationships aren't its lmao) but they're still so beautifully written anyhow!!
Anyways, this is once again igniting my love for entomology again, 10/10 this is probably my favorite flavor of MBD fic <3333

Summary
The closest Alastor's ever gotten to romance comes in the form of—in order of increasing hilariousness—a couple of botched youthful attempts at kissing, cheap mass-produced smut comics, and the wildly entertaining tales of other people's sordid affairs.
He's never wanted sex. He's never wanted love. He's never seen a problem with this.
It's taken about a century, but he's pleasantly surprised to discover that the rest of the world is finally starting to catch up with his perspective.
More than anything else, he’s pleased that these new modern attitudes have given him extra opportunities for bad puns.
