☆ Nathaniel Wilson ☆
I Really Like Nathaniel because the guy embodies Hope and Positivity without forcing it down the gullets of everyone around him.
He looks like he'd be a pleasant individual to actually be around at 7 am. Even before his coffee. [ Sera should be too, she doesn't seem like an unbearable person to be around in La Matinée ( the Morning ) . But still, she is alot grumpier than her other half. ]
With that said. Insert Happy music here. Nujabes or Smth.

Love the way you drew Nate here! such a clean style and serious face :> He's my favorite little quadfocal guy... friendly, polite, and a good conversationalist! You're absolutely right, he's one of the easiest people to get along with. It's almost like he knows exactly what to say to people.
Sera isn't grumpy so much as she is disinterested and dismissive. She heads to work without bothering to make small talk besides a basic "Hello." if she passes you by. Not the worst outcome, really, if silence doesn't bother you.

O SHIT
i figured it out
(i think. i don’t have any books in front of me rn so i could be misremembering)
So, I was always kind of confused with the sequel-bait job offer at the end of Exit Strategy. I was thrilled with it because I am fascinated by Don Abene and would love to see more of her, but how did GoodNightLander Independant know that Murderbot was affiliated with Preservation? All the stuff on TRH probably got a bunch of press but I don’t see why they would necessarily connect it to the stuff that happened on Milu, other than GrayCris being involved but GrayCris was involved in a lot of things.
At the end of All Systems Red, Murderbot breaks into some lockers and steals a jacket and a bag. It puts on the jacket, and rolls up the Preservation uniform jacket it was wearing and puts it in the bag. I can’t recall the bag being mentioned at all in Artificial Condition, so probably nothing was removed from it. In Rogue Protocol, when its hiding in the locker, it takes the memory clips out of the bag and puts them in its arm and leaves the bag.
-
This is the part where I actually went and picked up my copy of Exit Strategy and realized that it explicitly mentions that Murderbot takes the bag (and presumably the contents) with it when it leaves Ship, which busts my idea that the security team who searched the ship found the bag/jacket and GI put two and two together from there. BUT this means that it kept the PresAux jacket all this time 🥺
-
And this is the part where I realize that not only does Murderbot have its original bag with the jacket in it (this is an assumption but again, if I’m remembering this right, and I don’t have a copy of Rogue Protocol on hand to check, the original bag never left Ship so once it’s back on Ship it must have the bag or at least know where it is) but it also has Wilken and Gerth’s bag with the ID markers and currency cards. Only one bag is mentioned in Exit Strategy. Which one is it?
I would guess that it was the original bag. Since Wilken and Gerth were known to have traveled on Ship, having their bag on board wouldn’t be incriminating for anyone but them and its not like Murderbot couldn’t just take the things it wanted out and put them in its own bag. Which yet again means my original theory/idea/realization does not make sense but it does mean it kept the jacket. It might still have it. Where’s the fic about that
-
EDIT: NO i figured it out for real - it’s because Murderbot told Abene to look up the newsburst from PortFreeCommerce about GrayCris murdering people on a survey planet! The lawsuit! That Dr. Mensah is all over, with lots of speculation and press about the ~*~mysterious missing rogue murderbot SecUnit~*~. If Don Abene were following that story at all, she would find out about Dr. Mensah escaping/being rescued with the help of a SecUnit. The timelines would match up, it would explain a lot about Murderbot’s behavior and the whole Rin thing. Of course she knew where it came from.
