Summary
There are some great quick-and-dirty guides to HTML on A03. This is not one of them - it is a comprehensive guide
It's now 2025, a decade later. A03 supports some new HTML and and we're all walking around reading fic on supercomputers that fit in a jean pocket. It was time to update.
The previous three chapters have been divided into smaller concepts. Each tag continues to have - at a minimum - a link to the w3schools page about it (so you can learn more), a code example, and the result of the code example. Most tags have their attributes, things like [src] or [title], listed and examples of how using the attributes modify the tags.
There's a chapter on Bad Ideas, including how some of the archive's default CSS is available to you to format your work (users can't turn that off by hiding a workskin!)
Oh. And I added a bunny army. You could learn how to add one too.

Summary
Given Captain America's shield is made of either Vibranium or a Vibranium-Steel Alloy: Vibranium must be a transition metal. Because it doesn't rust - even when lost in the Potomic - it should join silver, gold and platinum as a noble metal.
Ditto for Adamantium.
This is the periodic table that fucks with quantum mechanics to put the marvel elements where they belong. It should work for Marvel-616, the cinematic universe (Marvel-199999) and even the tie-in video games.
Or: the headcannon where the author always was fascinated by Technecium, and knows just enough quantum mechanics to be dangerous.

Summary
Homu-chan!
So I saw a few ways that the future could possibly work out for you and decided it wasn’t fair for your best friend to leave you hanging! So I pulled some strings and promised some favors and now you’re here with your friends, who remember (almost) everything! Think of it as a vacation after all your hard work!
Mado-chan is there too! Don’t worry too much about how I’m in two places at the same time! She’s there to keep you company while I’m out on my day job! If anyone asks, the two of you are there to keep Rebellion from happening.
Now get out there and enjoy life! You haven’t seen summer in years, and I will be very cross with you if you don’t get a beach episode or eight while you’re there!
Love,
Madoka Kaname, The Law of Cycles (but you can call me Madokami ♥)
Madokami, immediately post-wish, decides Rebellion isn't the Good End she wants for Homura and isekais the Quintet (including a Mado-chan splinter of herself) into a big ol' metafiction multicross setting. Usagi Tsukino immediately adopts all five of them. Domesticity, hijinks, low-stakes combat, and beach episodes ensue.

the secret society of stick handlers by gurlsrool
Fandom Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid, Game Changers | Heated Rivalry - All Media Types, Heated Rivalry (TV)
23 Apr 2026
Summary
The queer NHL players (begrudgingly) unite via group chats in the face of social media scandals.
These stories take place on a (slightly loose) chronological timeline and make the most sense when read in order. However, they're all independent stories/scandals and can be read as standalones.
All stories take place post TLG and include spoilers for the books.

The Hemlocke Report by ResidentHesitant for smoothlikebutter (kyleknight)
Fandoms: WHITEPINE - IvoryTV (Web Series)
26 Mar 2026
Tags
Summary
The Hemlocke Report, as it currently stands, exists as a collection of journal entries, wax cylinder recordings, newspaper clippings, photographs, silent film reels, and police reports taken in the city of Emberton, Hale, between 1914 and 1917 in the historic Whitepine estate. The report was compiled in full in 1926, nearly ten years after the final expedition, by the report’s subject, Sir Pyroscythe Hemlocke, after a neurotic break prompted extensive work with a psychotherapist, who encouraged him to formalize the recordings taken during that period. Once compiled, the report remained in storage until 1979, when it was discovered by Sir Hemlocke’s great-niece, R████████ Hemlocke-Caine, while clearing out the estate after his death. All recordings and reports were digitized and put to film, and released as a documentary under █████████ Films in 1981.
Y'know hit cult classic novel House of Leaves and it's pseudo-academic, generally weird as hell format? Y'know how something in the Whitepine Estate isn't quite right? Y'know how the grand tradition of the katabasis has persisted in the popular imagination for centuries? Yeah. Yeah.

In Delusions of Increasing Grandeur by graiai for aguntoaknifefight (swirlingvoid)
Fandoms: Interview with the Vampire (TV 2022)
29 Nov 2024

Summary
Obviously, truth is stranger than fiction, and there’s always going to be edge cases in the real world, but for our purposes: just how realistic is Armand’s tragic backstory?
Judging by the number of retweets/reblogs on this post and others like it, fannish opinion seems to be “not very”. But honestly? It’s not that far-fetched.
Or: a fannish academic does a deep dive into the most controversial character in Daniel Molloy’s new novel.

How to create a work skin to have different fonts and colors in your works by Goddess_of_the_arena
Fandoms: css - Fandom, HTML - Fandom, Work Skins - Fandom, AO3 help - Fandom
30 May 2024
Tags
Summary
This is a tutorial on how to use different fonts on Ao3, how to make them in different sizes and how to make them colored as well.
It also contains two ready-to-use codes to give your fonts a gradient effect. There are both the code for the linear gradient effect and the code for the radial gradient effect.
CHAPTER 2 contains the visual examples of every font that you find in chapter 1.
WARNING: all the codes in this guide were tested on a computer. I can't guarantee the effect when the work they are applied to is read on a mobile phone.Series

This kinda derails everything. Still, this opportunity is too interesting for someone watching to pass up. Very, very, interesting.
I know this sounds weird but trust me it's fun.-

Summary
Twenty-six-year-old Wall Street trader wakes up after a night of binge-drinking to find herself in the Gryffindor Tower, in the body of a seventh-year Hogwarts student. With roughly 72% of the information she would need to be successful, and about equal confidence that this isn’t some drug-induced hallucination, Elena dives head-first into the magical world of Harry Potter. With her dog, Salem, unexpectedly at her side, she is determined not to let the obvious obstacles – you know, being a twenty-six-year-old New Yorker, from decades in the future, who’s never practiced magic a day in her life - get in her way. She’s at Hogwarts in the fall of 1993 and by-God is she going to embrace it.
Or at the very least, someone is buying Apple stock by the end of it.

Summary
In the wake of the Roaring, reality is still a little unstable. Things leak through, forming small pockets of Darkness called Dark Bubbles, housing dangerous creatures called Darklings. Aside from that, though, things have settled into a new normal. School, work, and adventure.
But sometimes, things more potent leak through the cracks in reality. Dark Worlds that should not have existed in this reality, and yet do anyway. Creatures stronger than mere Darklings or Titanspawn, ruling small kingdoms of Darkness. And to top it all off, nobody in Hometown can really be considered 'normal'.
A continuation of the world and characters of Persistent Variables. Persistent Variables is required reading.

The Villain I Should Have Became by Dallas_Anderson

31 May 2023

Summary
Class 1A has been given an essay assignment that would be presented in front of the entire school as well as faculty.
The topic of the essay?
“What would be your villain name as well as why would you have turned to villainy”
It was supposed to help the hero students understand where villains come from.
It was an assignment that was supposed to be fun and creative.
But for Izuku Midoriya, it was anything but fun.
It was his own personal nightmare.
Because how can he talk about hypothetically becoming a villain in front of the entire school, when he almost did become one?

Yes. I noticed. A pause, then: Also you looked very good out there. Almost made me forget you are my patient.
Former patient, Shane corrected before he could even think twice about it, then cursed his own brain. He gnawed the inside of his cheek raw.
Mmm. Former. Another pause. Shane's mind supplied him a very unhelpful memory of Ilya's humming, felt it resonate deep inside of him, with a need he didn't want to name but could. Are you home?
In which Dr. Rozanov gets intimate with Shane's eyes... and elsewhere.
