it is very funny that Martha Wells wrote a book about an explicitly asexual aromantic artificial intelligence and still managed to make it OTP babyfic

LOL, YES, and I loved it utterly, as someone who hates babyfic. I loved all the different perspectives -- Murderbot, Murderbot 2.0, the tapes, the new SecUnit -- and of course ART, with its "You don't want to meet me" badass approach. I just about cried when it said it couldn't lose Murderbot. And I want Murderbot to join the resistance team!

- love the reveal that A.R.T. & its people are secretly an underground resistance team. Love how nobody on the university resistance team is concerned by the fact that built an artificial intelligence powerful enough to kill all of them in the blink of an eye if it ever chose. It's OK! Skynet is their pal! They call it by a cute nickname!

I really love how the entire series flips perspectives like that. It's such a fresh take on AI and human-AI relations, and personhood, and so many things.
