    Summary

    "ART and I had been “fake dating” for a little over 4 corporate standard months and it had been going pretty well. Yeah, I know how ridiculous that sounds when I write it, but it didn’t change anything between us, and there were a few real benefits from the arrangement, so we kept up the charade."

    or

    How does the fake dating trope work when both parties are stubborn assholes?

    Summary

    Bruce realizes just a moment too late.

    Something is very wrong.

    Somewhere above him a machine hums to life, and then all of a sudden the room fills with a bright golden light. Bruce’s eyes adjust, and the full horror of what is happening hits him. The discs overhead aren’t filtering the light, they’re concentrating it, aiming it directly to where Clark is lying on the exam chair. Bruce’s stomach drops as Clark screams, writhing on the chair as the automatons pin him down.

    Like a bug being cooked under a magnifying glass.

    Summary

    She sighed. “No, I was referring to the marriage application submitted in your name?”
    “What? In my name?”
    “I take it you didn’t actually sign this application?” She sounded like she had suspected that was the case, even as she pulled up a very legal looking form that very clearly had my digital signature at the bottom. It had my name listed as First: Murderbot, Last: Mensah, and was also signed in the prospective partner field, a listed First: Art, Last: Perihelion. I glared menacingly at a nearby camera.
    “Pin-lee, I’m going to call you back.”

    Or

    ART has written a persuasive argument paper listing out the seven reasons It and SecUnit should get married.
