(there may be a version of this with this music playing, my money'd be on "circumstances force them to stop fighting, focus on a common foe, and fandom will forever debate who'd win, with martha wells and i refusing to ever give a straight answer, who talked us into an official crossover with the obligatory protagonist duel anyway")

#disclaimer: i've never played ultrakill so i don't know the context of that jam.#but it's called 'duel (versus reprise)' so presumably it plays over some kind of duel #i also haven't read system collapse yet so no spoilers #murderbot #the murderbot diaries #old ones and oligarchs #terminal crazy razorgirl #cavalry eldritchcyberpunk #i'm actually tempted to write 'murderbot somehow ends up on O^3 Earth and rescues cavalry from her own cunning plan'#i mean the fact is my bobbie draper expy for shadowrun ended up being halfway between that and a murderbot expy anyway by way of adam jense #and murderbot feels like a more likely source of inspiration for her to meet than bobbie or adam #(or eliot or reese for that matter; her engagement strategy is kind of a middle of the road between those two mayhem men)
