Summary
The one good thing about ART not being around was that I could ignore its instructions not to do anything stupid.
A bundle of thick cables ran from deeper within Three’s chest into what I knew were its power cells. I picked up the cable trailing out of my energy weapon, disconnected one of Three’s, and plugged mine in.

Summary
I skim the instruction document and pull the complex code file into the station’s processing space. I don’t think I’ve ever been this anxious for something to work, for something to happen. I know I’ve never been this desperate. Please—
The lights flicker, shutting off for hardly even a second before they turn back on, and maybe it’s just me and my faulty-ass organic parts and the emotional breakdown I’m maybe probably definitely having, but it feels like the air is different. It feels like—
Or,
A coda/minor rewrite for (mostly) ch. 7–8 in Network Effect.

Summary
Ah. Gurathin lightly skimmed over the ragged mess of my processing power, presumably to confirm what I’d said. It was a testament to how fucked up my head still was that I didn’t automatically shove him away at the first slight brush of his presence. After a moment, he drew back. So you want to stop?
I didn’t want any of this. It wasn’t about what I wanted. We have to.
I disagree, Gurathin said thoughtfully. We could redistribute the workload. If you still don’t want me interacting with the contextual data records, you can finish it and then hand all of it to me at once, so I can do the recompiling while you just focus on readjusting to the changes.
I tried to picture what he was describing. My code being fixed, piece by piece, while I just sat back and let it happen? Let myself be, what, tended to? Healed? Yeah, absolutely fucking not. My organics were doing weird shaky things just at the idea of it. Not happening, I told Gurathin.
