Summary
I can’t believe you’ve talked me into this, ART-Drone grumbled darkly as it located my wiring harness and the blackened, melted wires which had fried from the projectiles piercing my systems. If this hurts, you know who to blame.
Then it yanked roughly at the wire connecting my left leg, and I saw stars.

Summary
It had been 46 corporate standard cycles since the first time ART had performed what we had been calling routine maintenance on me, and I was no closer to being ready to acknowledge the schedule proposal or the hundreds of articles, surveys, and heavily-redacted sexual education modules it kept sending me.
I was starting to get a headache about all of it. It was annoying. And it was even more annoying because it was all my damn fault.
---
Murderbot and ART finally negotiate their 'routine maintenance' schedule.

Summary
Perihelion smoothed over my walls, almost reassuringly, which was doing funny things to my organics. It sent, Query: Assistance [Parameters: Cause?]
My power core threw another alert, this time a High Priority!! temperature alarm. I dismissed it quickly. Parameters: Cause == Foreign Body Obstruction.
I guessed that much, Perihelion responded snidely. What is it?
I was certain it already knew. I did not want to have to admit what I had done out loud, even in the feed.
Foreign Body == Item [tag: Personal, 1.0]
Perihelion rippled. Intriguing.

Summary
ART slumped heavier on my shoulders. Honestly SecUnit, I’m just bored.
Huh. That was new. ART had never admitted to being bored before, though with all that processing power, I wasn’t exactly surprised.
I knew how miserable boredom was. I had spent the first 17,000~ hours of my (remembered) runtime staring at walls.
Can I help?
---
Murderbot volunteers to help ART alleviate its dangerous levels of boredom by dismantling and reassembling one of its drones. Of course, this is a more kinky and intimate experience than either of them expected.

Summary
ART smothered me in the feed playfully, and I shoved it off, biting back a grin.
You like it, ART teased. You like me.
Shut up, I snapped. It’s just maintenance.
Right, ART said snidely. ‘Maintenance.’
---
Murderbot can't avoid its feelings forever and finally goes to therapy about it. Fortunately, ART is more than willing to guide it gently into whatever the fuck their relationship is becoming.

Summary
"This was supposed to be easy. A simple re-introduction to crime-fighting after taking so much time off to heal after the invasion. Dipping his toes back into the water, so to speak.
Maybe it was because it was easy that he let this happen.
Maybe it was because it was ‘no big deal’ that he had disarmed the suspect and left it at that, and hadn’t thought to check or wonder if that was his only weapon."
me and my beta reader are playing a game where they choose a bad things happen bingo prompt, and then i write about it for them <3 guess which one this was.

Summary
"We're not actually twins." Donnie heard himself say, feeling out of control, like he wasn't in the driver's seat of his body anymore.
"Yeah." Leo said, slowly. "We're literally different breeds of turtle. I don't need to be a genius to know that. But we've been twins for like, a decade. So that counts for something."
"Does it?"
or: if being a twin is a choice, donnie struggles with why leo would choose him

Summary
The softshell was remiss to admit that there had been many times in his life where he had been deep in the throes of work and creation, only to surface from that tunnel-visioned focus to find his body in want of some reprieve.
Whether it be food and drink, a scrape or cut previously unnoticed, headaches- all were a silent alarm that Donnie had no clue on how to unsilence.A RaphDon fic about Donatello, autistic introspection, and the surprising kink he gains because of it.

Summary
“You alright?”
Mikey’s looking at him. His eyes are searching, scanning him up and down, like a watchdog. Donnie’s in the middle of getting to his feet to work, and he can’t possibly open up to him. It’s stupid. Irrational. Deplorable.
Donnie offers back a pathetic grin. “I’m fine.” The words are quick, seamless. Mikey smiles something bright at him, the answer giving no one anything to think about, nothing to consider. Mikey is busy, busy like Donnie is, and he can’t bring himself to throw another thing onto the youngest brother.
He feels his shell pounding. Flesh ticking like clockwork. There’s no pain, not yet, just brass bright growing stains in his flawless techwear. No one notices.
Good. He’s got a lot of work to do.
///
Or, in which Donnie is a worker first and a person second.
(Or, in which Donnie convinces himself he is nothing more than a robot. He’ll work through the pain, work through the slashes on his shell, work through the migraines. His brothers, however, won’t stand for that…
…If they catch onto it, that is.)
