    Summary

    I come back from the dead.

    Something happened. Something happened just now— I came back from the dead, yes, I know, I'm not talking about this, something before that— beyond, even, there was a recognition, a realization, somehow much more important than the hostiles I am currently grinding to dust on my deck, more important, even, than SecUnit's humans with their raised hands and SecUnit with its raised voice and myself, raised from my grave. What was it?

    "What's going on?" I ask futilely, my voice distorting through the speakers. SecUnit's humans jump, startled. "What the fuck is going on—"

    Summary

    Murderbot is captured by the company. How lucky of them to get such a well-performing unit back to use in a new, experimental program. After all, after a few security updates and upgrades, it's just as good as new. Better, even!
    (mainly going to be dealing with the fallout of this I think, my favorite part!)

    AKA: I decided to write the most self-indulgent thing I could possibly think of (while still having the courage to maybe post it eventually).
    Mind the tags! I like when my hurt and comforts hurts very badly before it comforts :3c The characters/tags will probably change as I get a better idea of where I'm going with this lol.

    Wait for completion. I can't be left hanging for the comfort.

    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?
