Integration Stress Testing by Iampermanentlyconfused

Summary
"You're restless", ART said.
"Yeah, no shit." I had been patrolling (pacing) down ART's corridors for 2.3 hours now. I was actually surprised it took this long for it to say anything.
"Mild exercise and changing scenery can help alleviate restlessness," ART said, "however, given that you have been doing that for 2 hours and 19 minutes without improvement, I suggest another course of action."
"Like what?" I asked.
"Moderate to extreme exercise might give better results. You could make use of my gym. Or..." ART paused for almost 5 seconds, which meant it was either thinking really hard or it just did that for dramatic effect. My bet was on the second option.
"Or we could do some integration stress testing."
Or: ART and Murderbot do
sexintegration stress testing to help Murderbot relax. ART might have some ulterior motives.
Written as a part of the Mutual Rapport event for the prompt: lets sexualize calculus. many many options. -

Summary
I had been incredibly skeptical when Ratthi had sent me ‘Midnight Eclipse.’ I knew what fanfiction was, I had seen it in the more niche entertainment feeds before. Never specifically for Sanctuary Moon, but I'd assumed it existed. That didn't mean I had any actual interest in it, though. When I had first looked at them, I hadn't liked them. The quality varied too much and a lot of them weren't finished, or were really short, or really out of character. And I hated that. I really really hated that.
This one was different.

Turnaround Time (TAT)
[noun]
The total duration from the making of a request to its completion and delivery.—
Or,
Finally, with palpable resignation, ART asked, 'What do you need, Secunit?'
I pushed myself off of the wall and walked to the nearest medical table. Slowly and deliberately, as though the beat of my central circulatory pumps wasn’t pounding in my ears, I turned around and leaned back onto my hands. The small of my back came to rest against the edge of the platform. When I tilted my head all the way back and found the lens of ART’s camera, my mouth split into a smile that I hadn’t planned.
I said, “You.”

Summary
As more and more constructs are freed and start to get away from their enslaving corporations, they are starting to hear rumors that the PanSystem University of Mihira and New Tideland might accept them and help them into their new lives.
Toward that end, PSUMNT has started offering a course sequence titled "Survival Tips for Recently Freed Constructs."
Murderbot isn't quite sure how it was roped into teaching Act Like a Human 101, but somehow it was.
And it definitely doesn't get paid enough for this.

ART tries to kill itself -- completely out of nowhere and over something entirely innocuous. Or was it simply the last straw?

I really don't know how to tag this fic. It's good, really good, astonishing so. It also helped me reframe some (shitty)things. So thank you I guess.

[Podfic] Convergent Frequency by enigmaticNeurologist

Summary
As a state-of-the-art B-class wormhole-capable deep-space research vessel, I do not consider myself to have many serious design flaws. Every piece of me has been meticulously crafted, is regularly maintained and upgraded, and there is very little I cannot do if I set my several dozen exabytes of processing power upon the task. This is why the Pansystem University of Mihira and New Tideland’s extra-curricular oversight committee deemed me more than capable of operating unmanned on the occasional intelligence-gathering reconnaissance mission. It is for the sake of both necessity and convenience that these missions are camouflaged as cargo runs.
Nonetheless, it is an unmistakable oversight that I am capable of being bored. It is also incredibly annoying that unmanned cargo runs are so dull.
