Summary
“It’s an invitation to go to a university and talk to some bots, what’s to make of it?” I said. Then the obvious reason behind Bharadwaj asking occurred to me. Oh, great. “Don’t tell me you’re actually thinking about going?”
“I’m considering it,” Bharadwaj said. “I set my own schedule these days, and I would very much like to speak with the bots they’ve been working with, if nothing else.”
I sighed. I like sighing at appropriate moments, and I think I’m pretty good at it at this point. “There are bots on Preservation.”
“True, but the Pansystem University of Mihira and New Tideland has one of the most advanced programs in this section of the galaxy for the construction and study of higher-level bots!” Bharadwaj said, making one of those hand gestures she liked for emphasis.

AU after Fugitive Telemetry. Bharadwaj, Mensah, and Gurathin take a trip to do some research and rapidly uncover more than they'd bargained for. Why did Murderbot tag along on this low-risk research trip? Listen, don't worry about it.

Summary
Murderbot has found a fauna imitative companion construct (it was abandoned on a planet—we all know how our favourite SecUnit feels about that)...
It has a new home waiting for it on Preservation Planet, but first it needs to spend a brief quarantine period on the Station.

Summary
A bunch of nice handmade toys really don't belong in a daycare centre, especially one ruled by an evil flannel rabbit called Grey Chris. Their only chance to get out might be a battered SecUnit action figure who worked out how to sneak around mostly in order to watch youTube in the staffroom.

Summary
Originally written as a sexual fantasy of Gurathin's for a separate thing, then it took on a (small) life of its own. Don't look for, like, a lot of internal logic.
Gurathin attempts to smuggle a drive full of data. Gurathin gets caught, by a SecUnit. The SecUnit finds the drive.

Summary
I'm sure there was a better way to deal with this SecUnit than to jump into space without a full EVAC suit and try to punch it, but that was the best I had. I had to protect my humans, even if those humans included Gurathin. They also included Ratthi, so it was worth it.
Me and the other SecUnit are both equally clueless on how to fight in the vacuum of space, for better or for worse. Better being winning, worse being lost in the vacuum of space as I slowly die.
Gurathin and Ratthi wouldn't risk their lives getting me back, would they?Gurathin wasted one whole second to lift his gaze to me. He looked like he knew he was about to die. I always knew he was an idiot.
Two seconds left.
One second to twist my own helmet off.
Another to bring it down over Gurathin’s head and seal. His shocked expression would have been pretty funny in other circumstances, but I saved it to permanent storage, just in case.
The outer door popped open, and the three of us were thrown out of the airlock.Alternative POVs as SecUnit, Ratthi and Gurathin process a mission gone terribly wrong, and what it means to love, trust, and express those feelings to oneself and each other.

Bots and constructs have taken over the Corporate Rim. When PreservationAux is captured sneaking into AI-controlled space, someone must stay behind with the sophisticated bot-pilot that remembers a lot less than it thinks it does, and the rogue SecUnit with more anxiety and depression than anyone knows.

Summary
The Preservation Auxilliary Survey Team and the PanSystem University of Mihira and New Tideland are teaming up for a survey of a potential colony world. Their mission: make sure there aren't any alien remnants left on it.
Dr. Bharadwaj and Murderbot both have very mixed feelings about the enterprise. She, because it's her first survey since the one she nearly died on. It, because the planet in question is Milu.

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— »
“Peri broke protocol on its last cargo run,” Iris interrupted loudly.
--
Or, Seth finds out that the surprises never end when your kid is a giant homicidal starship.

Gentle Into That Good Night by Gamebird
Fandoms: The Murderbot Diaries - Martha Wells, Murderbot (TV)

Summary
This story is best understood if you have read Desire, Technically, where it would fit into the middle of chapter 19. It tells what happened as Gurathin goes through lethal withdrawal from the addictive drugs the company gave him to ensure his loyalty as a spy.
For those who have not read Desire, Technically, know that in this AU, Gurathin was a company technician who specialized in repair of constructs who had problems the cubicle couldn't fix. These were primarily mental issues, which is how he got Murderbot, who was not nearly as good at being an undetected rogue as it imagined.
Gurathin freed it but was captured in the process, tortured, and turned into a semi-expendable spy. Murderbot escaped, had Artificial Condition adventures with ART, then returned to find and free Gurathin. It found him, but he was addicted. They made a bargain with Preservation for them to do their best to help him survive the withdrawal.
And here we are.
