Modern day Maglor who, in a cyclical fit of family pride that comes around for 10 years out of every thousand or so, decides to honor Feanor by writing an album of educational childrens' album of science and engineering and art songs.

the thing about Murderbot's """relationship""" with Gurathin is that the first time it vocally expressed its dislike for Gurathin was the very first time it was ever able to vocally express its dislike for anyone.

And it was not punished! Nothing bad happened to it because of this! The PreservationAux team was just like, fine, your opinion is noted and valid, we still all have to work together to not die though.

for someone who was never allowed to let anyone else know it even had opinions, this is a big fucking deal.

its actions toward Gurathin later on (especially obvious in Fugitive Telemetry) show that it considers Gurathin a trusted and valued teammate. And maybe it will never remove the "I don't like him" tag from Gurathin's internal profile but that is not a sign of their friendship needing repair, it is a sign that Murderbot feels safe and free enough to be a little bitchy hater. and i say, good for it!

anywayy shoutout to murderbot for capturing the immensely real but rarely talked about feeling of I Just Dont Care. its not the absence of emotion and its not fuck it we ball its a separate, worse thing. "i really need to give a fuck but i Actually Dont" so true bestie. so true

[linesofreturninggeese]

Murderbots gonna need an emotion in private 🫡

Tell me I can’t possibly be the first person to think of this

EDIT: it has come to my attention that when this was shared on bluesky (with permission), it was liked by both Tommy Arnold (artist) and Martha Wells herself. What a fantastic way to wrap up Aro Week 🎉

I cannot imagine 1) That the Corporation Rim would produce free entertainment 2) That Murderbot paid for any of its serials. The entertainment feed is HuMaxFlix Plus with 500 different micro subscription options, and Murderbot has been the universe's most prolific TV pirate this whole time.

it wasn't so awful, was it?

You want me to turn on automatic software updates? The thing that made Murderbot commit mass murder?

murderbot's faulty risk assessment module my beloved

rereading fugitive telemetry has been awesome. what if two people who hated each other very much had to solve a murder together
