The sequel to my The Murderbot Diaries OC fic/ SecUnit Nine No. 2 has been published and edited for clarity. (Rated Mature for strong language and canon-typical violence. More warnings in description.)

Reasons to read:
- Unreliable narrator but only because of the brain damage
- If sarcasm were rocket fuel we could be an intergalactic civilization by now
- Grumpy-sunshine dynamics but the sunshine is just as damaged as the grumpy
- If it's unsafe to be yourself, you'll always pretend to be someone else
Chronology:
Takes place after Returned Empty String (https://www.wattpad.com/story/314217627-returned-empty-string-the-murderbot-diaries) but reading SecUnit Nine No. 1 is not required to understand No. 2. Takes place post-Bharadwaj documentary but no canon character crossover.
Summary:
Stealing stuff is supposed to be simple. But when I decide to rescue a ComfortUnit from a company that I faked my own death to escape, and they’re hauling “pesticides” that don’t seem to have much agricultural value, things get a lot more complicated. Add to that, there are still humans around to get hurt by corporate paranoia/ secrecy/ vindictiveness, and things are...well, yeah. This is going to be a lot.
