    Summary

    One simple idea that changes everything: Ariadne, audience avatar, is a plant. Dr. Stephen Miles places her - a twenty-six-year-old architecture student and polymath - on Cobb's radar as insurance, security, backup, and (of course) builder.

    She thinks she's ready for dreamshare, based on what she's read.

    Yeah, not even close.

    (Canon-compliant, insofar as interpolating an entire new plotline and spinning the perspective can be considered "compliance".)

    Summary

    “Get off me,” Mira snarled, elbowing Abby squarely in the throat. Notably, he was not in the slightest bit crumpling in agonized pain at having invoked her hunterly wrath. Rather, he looked mildly startled, then flattered, the big idiot.



    (Or: Mira is having the worst week since Gwi-ma tried to eat humanity, and the returned Saja Boys are making it worse. But Zoey believes in positive reinforcement or whatever, so...thanks for trying, guys.)

    Summary

    Patterns had been a part of Bobby's life for as long as he could remember.

    Small spiral marks on his left shoulder, coloring similar to the bruises he got playing with other kids.

    They weren't large or painful, and most kids at school thought they looked cool, so he didn't think about them. If he didn't want to answer questions about them, he wore a shirt with sleeves. It was that simple.

    It wasn't until another kid made fun of his patterns - calling them "girly" for their coloration - and he felt them itch and grow under his gaze that his mother sat him down and told Bobby about his father.

    Summary

    Murderbot participates in a Preservation holiday gift exchange where it has to hand make something for one of its humans.

    There are three problems with this:

    1) It draws Mensah's name, of all people
    2) It has no idea how to make anything
    3) And it's not even sure it's capable of such a thing, seeing as its a terrifying rogue murderbot and all.

    It's a good thing it has humans who can help it.
