    Summary

    “Your proposal?”

    Peter nodded, smoothing his hair back with one hand. “I’m being ordered home for a family holiday. It’s my parents’ fortieth anniversary. I do not want to go alone. It’ll be for two weeks. One in Beacon Hills, another one touring Europe, I believe. I’m willing to pay you over ten grand a week for your companionship on a few simple conditions.”

    Summary

    Jaskier hasn't had a good go of it so far. Her parents disowned her because she wanted to play music instead of being a doctor, the love of her life had run off and married her most hated rival (fuck Valdo Marx to the god damned moon and back), and she'd been almost burned to death by a stalker the police hadn't been bothered enough to keep an eye on.

    She'd hyped herself up about moving to this little town in butt fuck nowhere, a new start and a quiet place for her to compose the most epic ballad that would ruin Valdo's stupid life, so of course something had to go wrong.

    There is one road in and out of the town surrounded by a forest that seems to swallow people whole, and those who seem to escape it for a little (because no one escapes it for long?!) babble about monsters with the faces of humans.

    So, you know, Jaskier just has to end up entering the forest at some point. Sue her, she's never been good at listening to authority figures. At least she does it for a noble reason. This is how she ends up housing a healing princess while her father and his family 'protect' her by aggressively stalking her at all times.

    Stupid, annoyingly hot, king and his stupidly attractive softness for his daughter.

    Summary

    Stiles is a researcher at heart, when he wants to find out about something he does... except accurate information about werewolves is really hard to come by and if it's hard for him it must be hell for others in Scott's position.

    So, with too little sleep and accidental magic on his side, he decides to make a place people can come to help and get help. A hide out for all those who go bump in the night. Of course it turns into so much more but really, who ever accused Stiles of doing anything by halves?

    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

    Accidental teleportation, Tony decided. It was the only possible explanation. It was a relief, really. It meant he hadn’t been fighting with Steve, and it meant he had a cool new angle for research if he could just pinpoint the trigger. Really, he just had to get back to the lab and secure his boyfriend and figure out where he’d gone wrong and –

    And he rounded the corner and walked straight into some sort of mob hit.
