Default Advice on ground cover between pavers.

I've got a small sitting area that I just finished with 6x9 pavers.
Since I prefer a natural look I left 1/2 of space between each on the
sand bed. In this space I'd spread screened (as in via window screen)
dirt which I watered to compact.

Now, I need advice on something to plant between the pavers.

I'm zone 6b, south western Kentucky.

The area is shaded however I don't think it's enough to place the wild
moss varieties in that grow on the property.

On the moss note, can I propagate the moss at this time of year?
(buttermilk/moss/blender method) or should I wait? There are some on the
property that get the same lighting so they may work.

On any others. Do you all have any suggestions on something that will
spread along the "dirt grout" and not engulf the pavers?

Thanks for any advice you can give. I've already got a patch of creeping
thyme near by and a small bit of something else I forget the name of
(looks succulent, gets small star yellow flowers, spreads like mad) near
by but I don't want it on the pavers as it will cover them bad.
