Summary
A Known Exploited Vulnerability, or KEV, is a documented security flaw in software, hardware, or firmware that has been exploited in real-world attacks.
ART and Murderbot have faced the horror of talking about their emotions and come out the other side. Maybe they glossed over the sex stuff a little, but that's not important; sex isn't part of their relationship. Anyway, there are certain things ART would prefer to keep private, and Murderbot would prefer not to know. But when Murderbot comes back aboard acting strangely, the cracks in their fragile arrangement start to show.
Note: If you prefer to avoid sexual content in your TMBD fics, you can consider "Show Me How You Want It To Be" the proper end of the series and skip this one.

Summary
In Ronan's arms, Gansey looked breakable. Ronan hadn't thought Gansey could look anything of the sort. Even when Whelk had held him at gunpoint and Ronan had tumbled into the ER to find Gansey with a broken thumb and a wild panic in his eyes, he hadn't seemed breakable even then— panicked and mess? Absolutely. Never breakable though. But this Gansey? The one breathing softly and shivering in his arms despite the glaring summer heat? This was a Gansey that Ronan seldom saw, if at all. This was a Gansey Ronan wished didn’t exist.
Ronan Lynch, for as long as he could remember since his father's death, had not been a gentle person. He was rough edges and bitter words and anger. But when carrying Gansey back to his car, Ronan thinks that he's never held something so carefully in his life. He walked slowly and surely, gripping onto Gansey tightly, one arm hooked under Gansey's knees and the other at his back to press him into Ronan’s chest, his head resting in the crook of Ronan’s neck.
