That’s when it dawned on me that Hostile One was a Combat SecUnit.

Exit Strategy has so many good scenes but this is the one that I can’t get out of my head.

I just finished watching the final episode of the season, and all I can say is that I spent the entire episode crying.

Those tears from Gura, how she looks at SectUnit and tries to stop it from leaving...

Ratthi and Arada are super worried. Oh, it wasn't a very emotional season finale.

Hahaha, I can't stop crying, help!

Hi! I hope you're having a wonderful morning, evening, or afternoon. Could you make some nsfw for SectUnit from Murderbot?

Hey thank you! My morning was quite pleasant, I hope yours was too^^

First of all, thank you for your request! I've never watched this series, let alone written about robots/cyborgs etc, but it sounds interesting. I'll add it to my list for future stories.

Depending on whether it's specific characters from the show or my own robot-human hyprids, I'll either upload it to my monster blog or my main blog☺️

I'm sorry, I don't know what that is :)

Hi umm I’m not sure what Sectunit or Mirderbot is so I’m not sure what to do or where to start I’m sorry.

baby boy vs evil

as much as i pimp murderbot diaries i am exclusively referring to the kevin r free version!!!!!! he's amazingly talented with a wide range of voices and captures the characters perfectly <3

i barely started the graphic audio version before i was so turned off by the main narrator, who did not understand sectunits character at all!! its supposed to be sardonic and cynical and unused to talking! he spoke like a cartoon! like he had to make sure we knew he was in on the joke of his character. "well i could have gone a killing spree 🙄"

The Thing

SecUnit is in my medical bay.

So is SecUnit’s right arm, although it’s not currently attached to SecUnit. For all intents and purposes, it is sufficiently complex to a.) watch media with SecUnit in the feed and b.) have opinions about said media. 

It’s tapping out those opinions on a modified display surface. 

Iris is lying inside MedSystem with minor bruising and a gash in her shoulder. The disembodied arm is the reason she is alive at all, so I am being very lenient with its continued existence.

SecUnit pings me on a private channel. Explain it to me again. It’s alive?

I focus on the question because accuracy is essential. It appears to be. The facts of the situation cannot be expressed accurately in words. To the best of my understanding, 2.0 fused with the alien remnant and, in colloquial terms, hitched a ride in the neural tissues and limited processors associated with your shoulder-arm-hand assembly. It lay dormant until some undefined point where it detached from you and rescued Iris.

I know that part. I was there.

Your arm has been malfunctioning for months. 2.0 is likely the reason.

SectUnit starts another episode of Sanctuary Moon since 2.0 would like to rewatch the entire series. And now what?

I am constructing you a new arm as we speak.

I mean, what happens to 2.0?

I know you did, and I am unsure of the answer, either. I cannot predict whether I can transfer 2.0 in its current state into a more-appropriate system. 

It’s stuck like this? Does it know?

It does, I acknowledge. There’s nothing you or I can do right now to resolve this situation. Its continued existence is an adverse effect of the alien remnant. Now that it is here, we’ll do what we can, but we know very little about alien remnants, much less how they interface with construct code. You might not believe this, but I doubt this has ever happened before.

No shit, ART.

2.0 taps something on the display tablet. GOOD PART.

We’re coming, I tell it indulgently and focus on the serial in the feed, careful not to jar either SecUnit or 2.0. This is not what I expected; I note as much in my logs.

i know it would hate being talked abt like this, but your design for secunit is SO PRETTY

Hththr thank you so much 🥺💕💕

the 'redacted' sections are getting pretty distracting. i really hope the details are revealed in the middle of the book (like mensa's assassination attempt) and not toward the end (like who the Helpme.file was for).

it seems to be pretty clearly a failure caused by the alien contamination from the last book. no one seems to be scared of sectunit so i dont think it threatened anyone, which would be the worst case scenario. maybe it just froze up in an important moment. maybe it'll happen again and that will lead to a flashback
