Summary
Sam had gasped, then, like a drowning man suddenly coming up for air. He had twisted himself free, staggering, stumbling, unseeing, bracing himself on the back of the sofa and leaving thick red handprints in the upholstery. Leigh had been fumbling for the light, and when she found it on the seventh try Lyle had bit down hard on a scream that had threatened to claw its way from his throat as the overwhelming brilliance pierced through him. He felt overexposed.
She had slid down against the wall, wheezing out a hysterical sound that might have passed for a laugh in another life. Joel had folded himself up underneath the kitchen table like a frightened animal, curled in on himself a dozen times over. And Sam had staggered to the bathroom to wash the blood from his eyes.
And there, inside, after a pause that seemed to suck the oxygen from the whole of the apartment, Sam had started to scream.
----
The ritual was a failure. Now there is only Sam, and the mirror, and Sam and the mirror, and the thing that isn't Sam anymore in the mirror staring back at him.
...And Lyle, who foolishly won't let go of him. Like he could gather up the remains of all that Sam ever was in hand after hand after hand.

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
Lyle's mind can burn full of as much of Sam as he could fill it up with, but it's never enough to sate him.

Summary
Sam stared at the dark gaps between the shelves for a minute longer before turning around. His gaze was aimed directly at the door across from him. Until a photo on the table caught it, anyway, and he couldn’t help but give it one haphazard glance as it entered his vision– and then another, more alarmed look, because the guy in that picture looked awfully familiar.
Or: Sam finds out about Lyle's "project." They talk.
