Not sure if this abandoned Reliant Medical Organics Lab is part of a quest as I came across it in the wild. But I rescued these four garden bots that were locked in a small closet, and now they follow me everywhere. So I guess Sarah and I have a family now, and this is my new home because I can’t abandon them again. They keep making happy robot noises at me.
You can, but they're more autonomous worker drones in the outposts. These ones have personality, and just follow you around while beep-purring. I want to keep them so badly!
