A note for parents

This is a brief, character-driven science fiction short story featuring Murderbot, an AI security construct learning to exist as an individual. The story is emotional and reflective rather than action-heavy, with themes of belonging and autonomy. It contains minimal violence and crude language, and is best suited for readers already familiar with the Murderbot series or mature middle-grade/teen readers comfortable with science fiction about AI identity and past trauma.
