Summary
Astonishingly, I could not find a Murderbot / Baldur's Gate 3 crossover fic on this site. Which means I wound up writing one.
-------------------
At least, I assumed it was an augmented human. With no feed tag, I had no data regarding identity, place of origin, augment status, or anything else. It looked too organic to be a bot, although its attire resembled the outfits I’d seen on some Sexbots. It was carrying a sword only 32 cm shorter than itself, which did not seem like something a Sexbot would have. -

Summary
Dr. Gurathin takes an old-fashioned approach to discouraging Murderbot's ongoing attempts to surveil his private residence on Preservation Station. Murderbot handles the situation with grace and dignity:
During previous incidents, Dr. Gurathin had messaged me over the feed with his objections, asking that I retrieve the identified drone and not use it to re-infiltrate his personal living space. Luckily, Mensah had bought me two cases of drones, so I was able to use a different one for each new infiltration, adhering to his request.
This time, he had unexpectedly dropped a container of hot liquid over the drone. It was still functional (a drone that couldn’t handle water would be useless for planetside deployments) but the audio was muted and its visual inputs were restricted to the interior of a First Landing University mug. I could probably push the mug off the furniture surface using the drone’s propulsion system, but I was getting a 99.2% risk assessment that this action would cause mug to break. That had an 84.6% chance of turning this incident from a minor annoyance into a Big Fucking Deal involving meetings and consensus and talking about this, ugh.

The humans are being weird, even for humans. And they're not as subtle as they think. And I know for a fact they're working for ART.

SecUnit's Preservation humans have concocted a plan so evil, it takes even it by surprise:
They're... perceiving it. Having thoughts and emotions about it. And they wrote them down.Bookmarked by CharmingMonsters

Summary
At the annual reunion on Dr Mensah's farm for the original survey team members of PresAux, Gurathin gets himself into a bit of trouble and is forced to ask Murderbot for help. Note this is definitively TV-verse, though set sometime after the show, so spoilers for that. Unrelated to my previous fics.
Prompt: "Perhaps an injured Gurathin avoiding MedSystem and Murderbot bringing a first aid kit to him instead? Or, if that doesn’t strike your fancy, Gurathin saying something “rude” (i.e. direct) that’s helpful for murderbot to know and it realizing it likes his directness." So I went with your first option, but I have to tell you I did in fact do the opposite and involve a MedSys and not a first aid kit, but hopefully it remains in the spirit of the prompt.

Summary
You can’t be this stupid, ART said, which was insulting but also relieving, because it never talked to me that way during the trauma treatment. Maybe this wouldn’t turn into a BARF after all. Turn off your governor module, you idiot. It’s giving you brain worms.

Summary
I wanted ART to come back online so we could watch Sanctuary Moon episode 412 together and it could argue with me about whether spacetime-fuckery alternate universes counted as canon. I wanted it to come back online so I could tell it Holism put an aquarium in Three's chest and wasn't that totally deranged. I wanted it to come back online so it could bully me into figuring out what my fucking problem was.
