Murderbot having to hold the scared little girl and she grabs on like a 'tentacle parasite' and Murderbot is just. Okay. I live like this now.

people in the tags saying that being with Murderbot is the safest place for the little girl to be . . . if Murderbot heard that it would have An Emotion

woop. Ive drawn a lot of murderbot lately, but most of it's been sketches trying to nail down a design for it. Now those sketches are becoming digital (woah). I might do a couple posts with a bajillion sketches each.

Not that there's anything wrong with constantly downloading. My favorite line of my favorite book in the series.

the thought of mb sitting down and then making sure all its drones are in place and then closing its eyes and conking out(while running queries). Serenity perhaps...

I was definitely inspired by people (or perhaps one person?) drawing the risk/threat assessment modules as different abstract shapes. If you know...please let me know so I can shake their hand lol it's a good idea

I haven't finished a drawing in a long time so if there's problems yes there are. Just drawing something to get it out as it is

gura w the flu and a sore throat so he’s only using the feed to communicate instead of talking out loud, but his augments are affected by him being sick and are slightly on the fritz so every time he messages someone it gives them a little static shock and/or makes them sneeze

Murderbot is definitely a little bit turned on by Mensah when she is acting decisively. (Not necessarily in a sexual way, but still)

She is a short human, she is calm and gentle and nice, however she can get super stern and even intimidating when necessary.

This certainly has some sort of effect on MB. And I think it likes it. It claims that it wouldn’t want Mensah to be aiming this at it, but I believe it kinda wants this actually. Because:

  • It shows that Mensah isn’t at all scared of MB (which is very important to MB)
  • And it illustrates that even if Mensah gets stern, MB doesn’t need to be afraid of her either
  • And clearly MB enjoys pushing boundaries and being a little shit and getting a reaction out of people
  • It also shows that Mensah is very tough and competent. MB loves competent people

how can you say something so brave and true~

but seriously wow does it pay a LOT of positive attention and admiration of her being a good leader. like off the top of my head:

  • Intrepid galactic explorer
  • really good commander
  • describing how she’s protecting it at the company ship despite being traumatised and barefoot
  • her grabbing it and telling it know
  • the way she scolds it for trying to sacrifice itself and it notes she’s scary
  • idle thoughts in later books about how strong and scary she is
  • the satisfaction when it uses that strength to protect it
  • that line about her in platform decay if you know you know

and then the TV show, following her around in aww and admiration and having hallucination fantasies about her being its captain…

oh it’s falling for her hard
