okay okay listen okay listen. i finished reading fugitive telemetry and i had to draw my favourite part SO BAD. skip this if u dont want kinda spoilers for that idk
Just reread Fugitive Telemetry and upon a reread I think Murderbot is a tiny bit misinterpreting Senior Officer Indah's behavior towards it. Murderbot thinks it's because it's a SecUnit, which is obviously not wrong, but I think there's another facet of this which isn't on Murderbot's radar: once Indah starts thinking of it as a person, she's probably thinking of it as This Arrogant Asshole From the Corporation Rim who thinks Preservation Security are a bunch of incompetent hippies, tells them how to do their jobs and keeps complaining about them not having the dystopian levels of mass surveillance that it's come to expect from working in the CR, and is upset that they said no to giving it access to a bunch of data that violates privacy laws.
I can see how, from the perspective of a cop who has grown up in Preservation culture, this must be incredibly annoying, and means even setting aside any prejudices over a SecUnit being a deadly weapon, it kind of comes across to Indah as someone who she can't trust to follow basic standards of professional ethics if it thinks it knows better.
And Murderbot doesn't really consider this as a possibility because it's not used to being seen as a person at all, let alone seen as one by the Corporation Rim, so the idea that someone else would see it as a Corporate Person just never crosses its mind.
They don’t want me. (Hey, I don’t want me, either, but I’m stuck with me.)

i’m listening to fugitive telemetry and I think it’s hilarious how murderbot was like irritated that that one bot was potentially named Jollybaby… bro your name is literally murderbot… I know your emo ass isn’t talking
Murderbot kills me in Fugitive Telemetry. Like sure it's the "quiet" downtime book and a pretty good whodunnit yeah. It has a muder to solve, this is enrichment for it and all its friends are there! and everyone being there just kind of gets to me?? Like I get emotional over it. Seeing it act comfortable with its humans like that is fucking precious okay. Calling its bestie and worstie to watch it break into a transport, scaring the shit out of them later when it calls them for help in the most hilarious way. Bharadwaj getting it to open up and just. Talk. Everyone gets a little spot in its narrative. I know we've been over all this but we need to go over it AGAIN
Most of all though, the real killer to me (not balin) is in the beginning. Despite bitching in its narrative about how slow the humans are at parsing information like its all groaaaan humans could you be any slower, mb is still trying to impress them. You can tell its wary of the humans being assholes to it and you can tell it still stings every time it happens.
And then it will still want to help.
It ends up befriending so many of the people it meets and and will assume they hate it. Like Indah. She was an asshole in the very beginning but I don't think it takes her long to realize how she was wrong about it. then when Murderbot is mistaken about the hack after being so sure about it and its kind of having a little internal breakdown over it thinking about how Indah is gonna know its useless junk and you fucking KNOW that its expression was 🥺
Like what was Indah thinking. Probably close to what the PresAux team was thinking when they first asked murderbot to sit with them.
Oh and the scene after the refugees get rescued and Indah is leading murderbot through the halls away from the refugees and mb is all "she doesnt want to upset them if they see me because im a horrible garbage killing machine and she thinks so too" but its like. No my dude. She doesnt want you upset because THEY JUST SHOT YOU and you're obviously not okay. And probably made you stay out of the action later because YOU WERE JUST SHOT. For most people being shot isnt normal.
I love Murderbot so much. In Fugitive Telemetry there’s this amazing moment when Dr Mensah calls her marital partners in a bad mood and is basically like “okay pack up all the kids and siblings and cousins we are moving out to the boonies/uninhabited other continent because I’m done with humanity” and even though Murderbot HATES planets and does not want to live on one, it’s like, “fine I’ll come along and protect you it’s okay” like Dr Mensah wasn’t even serious and Murderbot wasn’t even part of the conversation. It loves Dr Mensah SO MUCH. Ride or die. I know everyone is obsessed with ART x Murderbot, but its relationship with Dr Mensah is so beautiful to me.
