Taking place right after "Exit Strategy", this short story let's us experience Murderbot's world through Dr. Mensah's eyes. A totally different, yet similar perspective.
She knows SecUnit is not so much taunting her with its abilities as refusing to pretend to be anything other than it is.
That was interesting, I really liked it! It was a dip into the more serious tones, but still showing off that Murderbot humor. Maybe it's just me liking this series a lot, but my only complaint is that I want more. I love Murderbot's POV, it's just nice to know how others view it (and it's behaviour). The character dynamics are always great!
"Can you separate that person from the purpose they were created for?"
"I couldn't. The person separated itself."
