Conversations with murderbot are always a bit of a minefield because occasionally it will drop the most devastating piece of info totally casually and then move on while its human friends are left reeling.

Like one day they're having a watch party or something, and ratthi will look over, stare at murderbot for a second, then say in a surprised voice, "oh, i didn't know that secunits' organic parts age the way humans do!"

Murderbot is quiet for a few seconds as it studies itself from one of its drone cameras, sees the fine wrinkles starting to line the skin of its face. Then it says in a wondering voice, "I didn't know that either. We usually don't live long enough to experience significant changes to our appearance."

And then an explosion happens on the display and murderbot goes back to paying attention to its show while all the humans around it stare at each other in abject horror. Arada's on the verge of tears and wants to hug murderbot so badly. Instead, she just hides her face in Overse's shoulder.

Mensah has to leave the room.

A piece I did for 2025 Murderbot Diaries New Year Gift Exchange (@mbd-gift-exchange) for @kungsljus. They requested holiday convention stuff inspired by the celebration in Network Effect (but with Murderbot having a good time) or Murderbot enjoying nature with anyone out of its friend client group. So here it is, celebrating and being involved in its own way.

The wizard robot in the upper right media corner is Kungsljus's D&D OC.

The picture was originally in monochrome because of the deadline, so I'm adding it here too.

Best viewed in browser, the details may get lost otherwise. Also on AO3.

Enjoy!

listening to the murderbot diaries audiobooks on my bluetooth headphones is hilarious sometimes because it’ll be normal for a few hours and then i’ll get hit with something like this:

Pin-Lee had promised, "Don't worry, I'll preserve your right to wander off like an asshole anytime you like." (I said, Re-Charge Battery :)).

and it just cracks me up because it does this with other audiobooks too obviously but it’s extra funny when it happens with murderbot lol
