Amena's first day at Uni (and bodyguard)!

Referencing this meme

[do-rey-me]

if murderbot learned what autism was i truly believe itd go "wow humans are so ridiculous they cant even agree on their own stupid human social rules" and then never think about that or its possible relation to its own behaviors ever again

My favorite part of Network Effect was at the end when Mensah was about to board the Perihelion and ART was frantically cleaning better than Murderbot had ever seen it clean before and making sure all it's humans picked up after themselves. And when ART greeted Mensah, it was the most sincere sounding Murderbot had ever heard it be. Like, ART wanted to impress Mensah, it wanted to make a good first impression to Mensah because it knows how important Mensah is to Murderbot. ART respects Mensah because it trusts Murderbot's opinions of people. It trusted Murderbot with Iris, it's best human friend.

a day in dr. mensah's office! featuring an earlier design concept for murderbot that i've since updated a little bit lol

uh hi. i wanted to illustrate one of the introductary scenes for SecUnit's character, since that would go along well with this being kind of my first post here. i... think that makes some sense. i promise more Murderbot diaries fanart after this (calling it content feels icky)). (did I start overusing brackets becouse of these books? possibly).

and i hope i captured SecUnit freaking out while trying to keep its composure at the same time well. as weird as it sounds, i like seeing depictions of it being nervous, becouse this side of it is what got me to relate to it so much in the first place (besides the heavily implied neurodivergence. though i guess the two go hand in hand). examples: in the second panel of the second page i tried showing how Gurathin's words affected it by making the speech bubbles visually "choke" (?) it, though it kept its face straight. oh, and i made it look much shorter than it actually is to mirror the way it is feeling!! figuring out details like that was pretty fun

(i'm sorry for any inconsistencies and the messy colouring and linework, i have ADHD and i get incredibly bored when i spend time trying to make everything "perfect" and looking the same in each panel... )

The ultimate security measure has finally bested our SecUnit in its hacking endeavors

Murderbot, in what is later revealed to be a long message to Doctor Mensah: I’m going to hack Doctor Mensah’s records to say what a great leader she is 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Murderbot using the strategy "talk to the humans" as a way to tell ART how it feels (...:

Amena in college with palette 62?

Something something she’s been getting into goth fashion since moving out but she’s too tired to care much about her outfits and also she’s a three weeks behind on the mandatory reading

[crabs-brencil]

(left to right thats mensah, murderbot, gurathin)

[sanctuarymoonfan397]

How do you think Mensah felt when MB said that it liked her a lot (not in a weird way). Like, MB does not express its emotions or feelings openly and/or willingly at all, and having it drop a bombshell like that, having it verbalize it must have been insane

'I was in an environmental suit now and Amena had made my hair fluffy (she was trying to make me feel better).'

Okay but I'm imagining that Amena ruffled Murderbot's hair. She probably had to stand on her tip-toes to do it.

One of the best moments in the whole series. Based on below:

mb to its humans: listen, i know what i’m doing. getting people out of dangerous situations is my job.

mb to its humans, after it’s left: so i was way out of my depth. i was not designed for situations like this, but at least i’m smarter than humans. my extensive media knowledge would just have to substitute actual training and experience. i hoped my humans don’t notice.
