Summary
"ART loved its crew. The joy and the love and perfect clarity with what it was supposed to be, what it was supposed to do. ART couldn’t understand how someone could dislike their function - how I could. Once, I had a similar clarity of understanding with my function, then I hacked my governor module and left the company for good, and I had lost it all. It was better, now, in a lot of ways. I had my humans, and ART, and our crew. But in some ways, things were worse.
I still wasn’t sure what I was supposed to do, ever. I had made one good decision, to stay with ART, a few years ago, and I had been just making the same decision over and over again. It felt kind of like cheating."A 20-some year fic in which Murderbot comes to terms with what it means to have a home (or two), a found family (or several), and just what mutual administrative assistance can entail.

Maybe I should try honesty, for once in my damn life.
I don’t know, I said, finally.
Could you try to explain it to me? It asked. Honesty sucked, actually, why had I tried that?

(I'm not and will never be one for smut but this is surprisingly ok, more like... intense feed bounding. intimacy in bots are indeed a secret third thing not to be catagorized by human terms, whoopy!!) THE most "Afterwards" fic, ever. I am melted into a puddle by the exquisite plot and humor and angst-drizzled shenaniganary of it all. And oh look non-hostile sentient planet, hiiiiii
