Summary
Lillium needs a little time to adapt to having Iris around. They haven't technically talked since he brought Iris to stay with him, but he's been so busy he barely makes it home lately. It's nothing personal if he doesn't wake Iris up for a chat. There will be plenty of time for that, eventually.
The important thing is, Iris has a safe place to stay. Isn't that all he needs?

Lillium comes home from a job that weighs on him more than he wants to admit and finds himself tracing the broken petals of Iris's soulmark.

Summary
Every escape attempt sees them separated, trapped, unable to move forward. With every failure, Lillium can only step back in time to the night before Iris's death. It’s like Washington State Lab itself refuses to let Iris go.
Lillium refuses to give up. He is getting Iris out, no matter what it takes.

Summary
Autor is never completely sure how much of it was real, afterward. The thought of living surrounded by people who couldn't even recognize the roles they were 'written' into requires more suspension of disbelief than he wants to give.
The memory of a girl he shouldn't know pulls at his heart far more than he is prepared to admit.

Summary
Hongou-sensei's interactions with his students and colleagues at Dan Detective School. (Everything in this series can be read as a stand-alone)
These fics might actually be considered as two story arcs on the same timeline. One dealing with Hongou and Nanami having a past relationship, and the other focusing on Kinta as Hongou's protege. They don't reference each other directly yet. We'll see if future ones will.
Listed in chronological order.

Summary
When Three is badly injured protecting ART's crew on a mission, Murderbot finds itself disagreeing with the safety protocols that it had written. It was supposed to be the SecUnit meat shield, not Three. It doesn't have time to figure out how it feels about that before it's diving in (literally) to rescue Three and maybe coming to terms with some things along the way.

Summary
A series of short stories to the prompt: pre-canon but post-hack, Murderbot is owned and deployed by the Company. Emphasis on it facing painful, difficult choices, where it has to “choose” to obey, has to “choose” to act governed Or Else, where Murderbot has to look like it’s following callous, cruel, or profit-oriented orders, but still does what it can to reduce harm.
Please note that given the constraints of the prompt, Murderbot continues working, doesn't gain substantial allies or abilities, or make big changes in the world. Its gains are incremental and mainly self-discovery, so there's not a big, happy ending like with most of my fics. Murderbot is still learning some of the abilities it takes for granted by the time we meet it in ASR, including hacking, vocabulary, and social skills (yes, it has fewer social skills here than it does in ASR!)
These scenarios are arranged chronologically with several set within the same assignment, taking place within the first year after it hacks the governor module. I imagine these as incidents it discusses with Dr. Bharadwaj at some point post-NE, as it talks about early times when it recognized its own agency.
Thank you to horchata for helping me brainstorm!

Summary
Three observes that the humans on board The Perihelion do not touch SecUnits. This does not upset it. Of course not. That would be a strange thing to be upset about.
