    Summary

    I held it for a long moment and waited for ART’s litany to run out of steam. When it finished, it did the bot equivalent of taking a deep breath, then said, I am so mad at you.

    “I got that.” I know I’m not great at the emotions thing but even I could figure out ART was pissed at me from the raging storm of its feed presence and, you know, all the insults. “Why?”

    Summary

    One of Mensah's children wants to read aloud to SecUnit from a chapter book. What's the worst that could happen? (It gets so spooked by a stupid old piece of children's media hitting too close to home that it has to run off and have an emotional collapse about it, that's the worst that could happen.)

    Summary

    The present me should feel disgusted by the mess SecUnit made on my deck, on my bulkhead, but I should also feel indifferent to SecUnit’s anger and ferocity, and I should be unaffected by the fluidity and grace of its violence—and I am not. I am so far from indifferent and unaffected that I have, instead, created new pathways within myself for the way I’m actually feeling.

    The breathless violence, the ruthless revenge—all for me. It is nothing short of mesmerizing. SecUnit is mesmerizing. I am enraptured.

     

    Or,

    ART processes the fragments of its memories from its deletion, and falls in love.

    Summary

    While on an undercover mission deep in the Corporation Rim, Tarik buys steals rescues acquires a ComfortUnit. This is fine—it can hang out while he finishes the mission, he’ll be not-an-asshole to it, and then it can go on its liberated way and never have to see him again. This will definitely not get weird and messy.
