Random short story with Murderbot on a panel to accept questions from humans on Preservation in order to help bots and constructs actually gain equal rights. Humans on Preservation, it turns out, are just as stupid as humans elsewhere.

A mid-20s Gurathin explores his sexual interests with a standard ComfortUnit. Even then, he wonders if there is more behind those eyes, or if he's just seeing what he wishes was there.

This is the intro scene of ASR, rewritten with Ratthi in the pit instead of Bharadwaj. This makes him the one bitten instead of her.

A man and a SecUnit are on a boring assignment watching industrial equipment for a few days. The man has an idea. The SecUnit is amenable to it. (No canon characters. Very vaguely dub-con.)

Perihelion sees one of its sibling ships and decides to show off in an elegant display.

SecUnit confronts Ratthi about a suspicious situation with one of Ratthi's partners, only to discover this isn't the first time it's confronted Ratthi about this.

Dry, factual, and straightforward, SecUnit sends a message to Dr. Bharadwaj for inclusion in her documentary, in answer to a question she'd asked about the treatment of SecUnits by clients. And Murderbot, the unreliable narrator it is, is seriously understating its emotions about all of this.
