Summary
In my imagination, they're playing your documentary again in Makeba Hall, like they do every year with the other historicals, and I’m looking up into the big holo display projected high over my head, larger than life in the self-same theater you used to attend with your favorite humans. At intermission the screen is empty, and dark in the space between stories. Did you ever guess how important yours would still be, a million hours after you lived it?
You made history. All I can do is try to live up to it.
Years after the Machine Intelligence Liberation Movement sweeps through the galaxy and changes everything for the constructs who fought for it, an art history student contemplates Murderbot's legacy, and tries to figure out what it means to live in the context of its history. -

Summary
A perfectly ordinary ComfortUnit is assigned to a planetary survey alongside a somewhat less ordinary SecUnit. Unintuitively, this actually reduces the survey team’s overall comfort levels by a significant margin.

Summary
The timeline has been altered. It has been roughly two years since the Day of Unity collapsed uneventfully, but wild witches are still on the decline as the Emperor's Coven gathers its strength and consolidates the once untamed eastern lands. Luz Noceda is sixteen and has been homeless for five years. Driven by a new resolution each day to survive, she perseveres through loneliness and trauma, even as the shadows behind her eyes continue to lengthen. When an impossible door offers an escape from a lifetime of horrors, the fact that she's entered a realm of demons offers no deterrence: Luz has found a home at last.
Written as if for a new audience, this all-original story gives a fresh perspective of the Boiling Isles. Carrying her trauma like a constant companion, one PTSD-stricken teenager sets about changing the world one imperfectly mended heart at a time. Even for long-time fans of the series, nothing will be quite like how you remember it, except that our protagonist still changes the lives of everyone she touches.
Inspired by SwainArt's HomeLuz AU, Dexsterpieces's art, Moringmark's comics, Mr_Sova's Entanglement Saga, Drabbles_Of_Writing's Four Years AU, and BSChocolatte's Fake Dating AU.

Summary
“What the fuck.” Adora’s voice shook.
Catra stopped rewinding, and tentatively hit play again. They watched it forwards this time. A massive wolf smashed through the fence, sending shattered painted shards everywhere. It clearly howled in pain. Its golden fur was painted red around its maw and down its front and, now, around its leg. It slumped forwards into the mud. It lay there for a while.
Then it shuddered.
It started shaking, violently.
Its limbs snapped about in horrible ways. Fur receding into skin.
Its size shrinking.
Then it was Adora. Lying face down in the mud. Fencing stuck through her leg. Her arm bent at a horrible angle.
Adora doesn't remember anything. She's woken up with new senses, new strength, new hunger, and new... form. She's lying in the mud of Catra's backyard knowing it's the only safe place in the world.
