    Summary

    Seth side-eyed Iris, then snorted a laugh when she made a talking motion with her hand. “Uh huh.”

    « Iris, I saw that. My point is, it is frankly insulting that you immediately assume I did something bad— »

    Summary

    ART?

    SecUnit. Stand and return casualties to the shuttle.

    It sends me a map of directions, marking the bodies around its corridors.

    ART, say something. Call me an idiot, please.

    SecUnit. Apply a 5% correction.

    This can’t be happening. I shouldn’t have done this, we should have fought to the death instead. I’ve made a terrible mistake.

    They installed a governor module on it.

    ---------------------------------

    On a routine cargo run, Barish-Estranza captures and installs a governor module on ART. Can Murderbot find a way to save ART and itself?

    Summary

    Ten-year-old Tony Stark wakes up locked in a bedroom and very confused. A computerized voice assures him that everything is fine and he’s just been hit with a magic spell and should stay put. He’s not an idiot though and won’t fall for such lies. Obviously, as the heir to Stark Industries, he’s been kidnapped. And he’s not the only child who’s been abducted!

    “Big man in a suit of armor. Take that off, what are you?”
