   Summary

   This is Murderbot's first time leading an undercover operation with ART's crew. The goal: investigate ArguScylla, a company known for renting out used SecUnits. It should be a simple, in-and-out mission. Run around and steal proprietary data while Iris runs interference. But something is weird about ArguScylla's SecSys. Really, really weird

   Summary

   Termitis849 Commented;

   Okay, I can’t tell if this is two equally neurotic Lacey stans, or one guy roleplaying his dissertation defense in a half-dead Medcenter Argala forum.
   edit; did NOT realize the MCA fandom was still active, my bad.
   edit edit; I GET IT. THE SHOW IS POPULAR. PLEASE STOP COMMENTING ON MY POSTS.

    

   Or; Murderbot and ART have a minor disagreement over some media.

   Summary

   The Preservation Auxilliary Survey Team and the PanSystem University of Mihira and New Tideland are teaming up for a survey of a potential colony world. Their mission: make sure there aren't any alien remnants left on it.

   Dr. Bharadwaj and Murderbot both have very mixed feelings about the enterprise. She, because it's her first survey since the one she nearly died on. It, because the planet in question is Milu.
