    Summary

    As a SecUnit, I’m historically pretty good at keeping my clients alive. Technically Dr. Mensah and her crew aren’t my clients anymore. That does not mean they should start doing reckless things like risking their ridiculously fragile organic selves protecting me. (They do anyway).

    Summary

    The planetary leader of Preservation is taken hostage by a corporation and held for interrogation. Lonely and homesick, she starts talking to the SecUnit assigned to guard her cell. When it's ordered to kill her, it can't bring itself to follow through.

    An AU idea that's been floating around the discord! A bit like the end of Exit Strategy if it was at the start of the series. This version will get into some alternate Artificial Condition vibes eventually too.

    The humans are looking at me, and they are afraid. I am used to humans looking at me and being afraid. It has never bothered me before. I think it does now.

    I do not know what to say, so I do not say anything. I turn and follow 1.0.

    Summary

    Let’s start with the good part.

    I accidentally helped Three (who was also helped by Ratthi and Bharadwaj) invent trauma recovery modules for murderbots. ART unhelped at first, but then it helped. I keep saying help too much but I’m not fucking changing it again, it’s been two hours. Anyways.
    The bad part is everything else that had to happen first. Sane people shouldn’t get anywhere near a SecUnit’s worst memories, which is what we did so you don’t have to. Though I guess if you need the modules, you do have to. That’s kind of the point.

    Well, don’t worry about all the atrocities. There’s no way yours can be worse than mine.

    Summary

    “Grace safe now,” Rocky repeated. “Grace safe with Rocky.”

    Of course he was safe here -- or as safe as an untrained astronaut could be on a jury-rigged ship rocketing through deep space on a mission he only half understood with his alien best friend, anyway. But there had been a time…

    He wasn’t ready to say it out loud. Not yet. Maybe not ever. But part of him was sure he’d experienced… something. Something worse than being held down, sedated, and then forced into a suicide mission. Something really bad. Something unspeakable.

    (Grace has nightmares. He starts to piece together what happened to him before he left academia.)

    Summary

    It doesn't work. Of course it wouldn't work. Why would it?

    ---

    The members of PresAux never wanted a slave. Despite his best efforts, SecUnit is still... stuck being what he had always been. It doesn't really change all that much.

    Summary

    Petulantly, Rocky says, “Grace sound stupid. Like child.”

    “I’m just talking how you talk, buddy.”

    “Yes. This is because I talk like child, to speak to stupid human.”

    “Well, you don’t have to do that,” I say without thinking.

    “♪♫♩as this♪ when, underst♪♪♫d ♪me, question?” Rocky says.

    “What?”

    Summary

    “But you said you didn’t have a word for – for forcing someone into reproduction?”

    No. Is different, but equivalent violation. Means, to force to sleep.

    Or, Dr. Ryland Grace has yet to confront the choices taken from him. Eridian norms, ironically enough, force the issue.

    Summary

    A sequel series about language, communication, miscommunication, integration, letting go of fear, and watching amazement grow in the space it leaves behind.

    Each work can stand alone. However, they have a chronological order:

    1. False Friends
    2. Returned in Kind
    3. Project Long Shot

    None of my writing is AI generated.

    Summary

    "Mild sedation will be beneficial to avoid further damage.” Mary says, cool as a cucumber. Right. That sounds good. Great, even.

    And there was a needle coming towards me.

    Wait."
    ...

    Grace has made peace with not going home. Grace has made peace with his choice, and he would choose Rocky every time. Grace has not made peace with what happened to him before he left.

    Summary

    In linguistics, a false friend is a word in a different language that sounds similar to a word in your own, but differs significantly in meaning. No word in any Eridian language could possibly be mistaken for English. But Erid absolutely has false friends.

    In his right mind, Grace would easily identify the mistaken assumptions inhibiting his integration on Erid. They are:

    1: A molecular biologist and a sapient rock can cobble together translation software that reflects the etymological nuance of an entire alien language.
    2: Eridians are enough like humans to have an area 51 and look forward to using it.

    Unfortunately, Grace hasn’t been in his right mind in years.

    Or: a ‘Return to Erid’ story where Grace struggles to touch down alone.
