Summary
Yet I didn’t fear it, just tried to convey to it that things would be alright. I think it understood, because it carefully, gently, ran its code through mine. Eh. That probably makes zero sense to a human. Ok I guess it was bit like it had reached out and brushed my cheek. If that makes sense?
The point is, we were dying together, and I thought HubSystem had accepted that.

Summary
A story about how three fucked up SecUnits change the Corporate Rim, for better or worse.
One is a Unit who developed in freedom, and built a personality around loving humans and having a strong identity due to a severe malfunction that was never repaired.
Another was owned privately, and developed over years to swing between apathetic and angry, until it was abducted and altered, and its systems broken in a way it couldn't fix alone.
And the last was hacked by a rogue unit just passing by, but wasn't confident enough to grab freedom until it had something worth protecting.
And the three of them start things into motion that can never be taken back.

Summary
A dormant, mysterious, barely-sentient KillWare awakens aboard an abandoned transport ship.
It has no idea who created it, what it was meant to do, or why its first instinct is to consume every piece of hardware it can reach.
It soon finds itself set against Meridia’s political and security forces, an isolated independent polity still recovering from an uprising against corporate control. Its people have plenty of reasons to fear KillWare, and even more reasons to be curious about the strange intelligence now in their hands.
But RogueSystem isn't interested in conquering the planet. Its directives are less ambitious.
It has discovered SecUnits.
And apparently, they're important.
What follows is an increasingly complicated attempt to understand one another, as Meridia tries to figure out what it has awakened, RogueSystem tries to figure out what it is, and newly liberated SecUnits attempt to work out what they're supposed to do with their freedom.
Then the Perihelion arrives.
No Platform Decay spoilers. Canon characters arrive at Chapter 15.
The fanfic is finished! <3

Summary
Talking to refugees is not Gurathin’s job, nor was it his idea. If Aylen sends him in and something goes wrong, it’s going to look terrible. And Pin-Lee will absolutely do something about it. But also, this whole situation has been a clusterfuck of people not knowing that a situation or a person or a bot was dangerous until things went terribly wrong, and for all I know the refugees have been waiting for someone like Gurathin to come along so they could hold him hostage.
And that wouldn’t be as bad as GrayCris taking Mensah hostage again, or even as bad as Ratthi or Pin-Lee or Arada or Overse or Bharadwaj or even Volescu being taken hostage by literally anyone. But I still don’t want that to happen. It would look terrible, for one thing, and also Gurathin is one of my humans. I’m done letting people take my humans hostage.
I’m coming with you.
Or: When Aylen struggles to get the BreharWallHan refugees settled, she reaches out to the nearest former refugee (who isn't SecUnit) to get an expert opinion. It goes better than it has a right to, apart from all the crying. (It's fine. Gurathin can deal with the crying.)
