Title: Known Issues
Fandom: Murderbot
Rating: G
Length: 432 words
Notes: petra is having a drabble and poetry exchange, and prompted among other things, adventures, Murderbot who's neither white nor a man, and happy endings. So this happened. :-) (Note: I’m pretty familiar with the original four novellas, but I don't remember anything about the first full-length novel, and I haven’t read the latest one yet.) (Note2: I didn’t actually manage to include any reference to Murderbot’s presentation, but please know the thought was there.)
Summary: I was on my way back to Preservation Alliance, and my attention was divided between monitoring StationSecSystem (14%), scanning for weapons (7%), checking the transport schedule (3%), and skimming the entertainment feed (72%), so it took me almost two seconds to register the human waving at me across the concourse.
