"Whatever caused the false memory to spontaneously appear out of fucking nowhere, it had made my performance reliability drop so quickly that I shut down"
Murderbot had a trauma flashback that freaked it out so much that it thinks it's broken. It's been literally shot and crushed and rewired before and yet one PTSD flashback and it thinks it's useless
Everything about MB is tragic but this just hits hard

"I guess at some point I was that awkward, but seriously"
Murderbot, I think you should review some of the footage from when you were working with tapan, rami, and maro. I'm pretty sure the interview specifically would give you a conniption now

"According to Martyn, ART is of course capable of doing its own accounting but it always ends up with extra numbers that no one can trace"
ART just casually committing fraud for no fuckin reason. I love this damn ship

I am now in possession of Platform Decay, and no matter how desperately I want to read it, I told myself id reread the whole series first.
So here I am, reading book 7 of murderbot at the same time as book 5 of DCC. I'm just glad that tho they're both sci fi, they're pretty much as different of books as you can get.
Sidenote, oh man, seeing all the Redacted's and knowing what they are is gonna Hurt
