Fics like Control-Carbon Operation
I had seen crazier crimes on mining installations full of adult humans who should know better than to piss off their coworkers — a small break-in at a dorm room months ago with nothing stolen was loads better compared to that. But the security did suck ass here. And things like this could turn very serious, very quickly. Plus, with my luck, it probably would. » - « After a break-in at Iris’ room at the university, ART asks SecUnit if it would be willing to act as her security detail while the investigation is underway. This is standard. The catch, of course, is that the “investigation” is also being handled by ART — and SecUnit by extension, because ART does not know the meaning of “staying out” of things. It doesn’t help either that the culprit is likely one of the many young humans that Iris is friends with, meaning there’s likely stupid social drama involved. Who knew that investigating a crime involved committing a lot of crime? And socializing?
