no context for you

muderbot saying “i learned to leave” just horsekicked me in the chest holy shit

My personal theory is that ART decided to befriend/help/keep Murderbot from the moment MB shared that footage/data/sensations of being tormented by the governor module.

It is a huge ship, basically a Culture-style Mind in comparison to every other tech we see. It loves its crew and its function.

ART and MB specifically establish that ART CAN interpret reactions and emotional data shared with it by MB in a way unlike getting data from humans.

So to confront a concept like this--torture at all, but also torture in the course of fulfilling the function for which you were built...

Yeah, sure, keep that comm. MAYBE we'll cross paths again later.

Murderbot: has a trauma response

Murderbot: it disrupted the organic parts of my insides

If you've been wanting to check out Murderbot Diaries, they're currently part of an audiobook bundle through Humble.

[id: screenshot of fiveayegeethree's tweet.

the tweet says: "anyways read the murderbot diaries by martha wells" and that is above a screenshot that reads:

this isn't like a "oh i didn't picture murderbot this way therefore its a bad casting thing"

it's a "you are adapting a series with a cast of mostly non-white non-men characters and all of your writers/directors/producers are white men, and you've casted a white cis man to play a nonbinary (most likely non-white) character whose gender identity/lack thereof is a CENTRAL part of the story and it's character" thing]

I know they give us the plot to Sanctuary Moon in the books, and that it's a contemporary space adventure, but the first time Murderbot mentioned it, all I could imagine was a period k-drama.

"The littoral zone is the bit where the sea, or the lake, meets the land…it’s a sort of liminal space"

For the last day of prompts, a promo poster for Littoral Zone! By @rosewind2007 . Art was inspired by the littoral zone where their machine parts meet. Such a wonderful story, like a big hug!

Highly, highly recommend Citizen Sleeper to everyone, but especially to my fellow Murderbot Diaries fans. It's a beautiful, incredibly well written game that hits a lot of the same points as TMD. I loved it

[dozenssporks]

Murderbot thinks it’s the one with the single brain cell of any group it’s in . . . and this is correct insofar as security is concerned but even then the brain cell does have a tendency to blip out when Murderbot should be considering options other than throwing itself to get shredded in the blender of self-sacrifice

[gruuve-s]

oh! and The murderbot itself, of course

Legit promo material for the series.

Book one of The Murderbot Diaries, All Systems Red, is a survival mystery as a small team of scientists are faced with an unknown threat while trapped on an isolated, hostile planet, with no hope but to trust their second hand, possibly murderous, robot security.

Artificial Condition, book two of The Murderbot Diaries, is about two robots in a trench coat pretending to be human for a job interview.

Re: MB and holding hands, I'd forgotten about it holding Tapan's hand in AC, but I recently reread ASR and one of the things it remember between the explosion and waking up back in its cubicle was Arada holding its hand

Yeah that moment is really cool! Almost like the inverse of the scene with Tapan- a couple people pointed it out to me so now i have to go back to read it!
