Summary
It is 2012, and Dipper and Mabel have been sent off to Gravity Falls, Oregon to live with their Grunkle Stan for the summer. They're expecting a boring summer up there, but the supernatural happenings common to Gravity Falls will make this a summer to remember. Luckily, Dipper's brought a tape recorder to record everything that they come across...
What if there were other powers at work in Gravity Falls beyond just Bill Cipher? What if the true powers behind it all were more familiar to the Archives crew of a certain Institute across the pond?
What if Gravity Falls ran on the rules of the Magnus Archives universe instead of the rules of Weirdness?
This is primarily going to be a Gravity Falls work - it just uses the lore and logic of the Magnus Archives universe. Don't expect the Archives crew to show up except perhaps as a passing mention.
It is also a quite slow-paced fic by my own admission. About three to four chapters per episode of Gravity Falls.
Tends to update once a week between Sunday and Wednesday - but since the second I make that a hard deadline I'm gonna start procrastinating and rushing in that order; just take that as a vague idea instead.

Summary
When gravity falls and Earth Becomes Sky, fear the beast with just one eye!
When Dipper and Mabel arrive in Gravity Falls to stay with their Great-Uncle Stanford for the summer, the last thing they were expecting was to find out he had a wife and children even younger than them! But there's something odd about Aunt Eda and their cousins, something just as strange as the rest of this weird town.
They couldn't actually be magic...could they? And what connection do his young cousins have to the mysterious Journal he found in the woods?

Could You Say You Even Tried? (You Haven't Called Your Family Twice) by orphan_account
Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, Red Robin (Comics), Danny Phantom
10 Nov 2023

Summary
There's a message for him somewhere in there. And since he can't seem to get any more clues from the comfort of Wayne Family Manor, Tim Drake decides to go straight to the source: Amity Park, Illinois.
----
The 5 year anniversary of faking his own death was coming up on Danny, and the 2 year one of becoming a halfa. He's lived in Amity Park comfortably for all of the years, without trouble from the group of bats he'd left behind in Gotham. So why does Mr. Lancer keep talking about an exchange student from Gotham City, and why did CW's message say something about Robins?
TL;DR: Damian Wayne faked his death and became Danny Fenton. Clockwork gave Tim a cipher that sent him to Amity Park where he meets Danyal James Fenton.

How to by Charles_Rockafellor
Fandom: AO3, AO3 CSS, AO3 help - Fandom, Conlangs - Fandom, css - Fandom, HTML - Fandom, The Matrix (Movies), Work Skins - Fandom
24 Mar 2025
Summary
This series started as just a one-shot to help people with AO3's CSS for making work skins. Now that I've written a piece on making series (originally for a friend, but then shared to a Facebook group, so I figured why not add it to AO3), I figured that the two really should be linked for tutorial purposes. I had no plans to do any of this at first, so maybe I'll add more in the future (Collections come to mind, and they're really easy to do).
I don't expect to add further tutorials, but I hadn't expected to write these either. I'm calling the series complete, but who knows (one thing that keeps nudging me is to take the statistics and show how fics' half-lives vary, for example; another is putting all weird AO3 fixes into one spot).
NB: If you're wondering, please see How to make and fix a series on AO3 (in this series with the tutorial on CSS work skins for fonts, which made that link become underscored blue ink [assuming that your browser settings, site skin, and third party apps didn't prohibit it]).

Summary
Cody picked up the voice comm with bad grace. It wasn’t his standard-issue device. “Hello, dear,” he said, sounding exasperated.
Rex blinked, because Cody was speaking Mando’a, which meant Wooley had done a double take but Anakin hadn’t even looked up from the holoscreen.
Obi-Wan goes undercover. Cody takes some calls. These two facts are absolutely not related.

Fonts, and colors, and work skins, oh my! by Charles_Rockafellor
Fandoms: css - Fandom, Work Skins - Fandom

Summary
Explains:
● how to make a work skin;
● how to view fics' work skin rules;
● how to colorize text and circle words and highlight backgrounds (examples in head-note), and change and resize your fonts;
● how to turn all links blue-underscore automatically;
● the CSS code for diacritics to render properly, e.g.: “ầ” & “ồ” (with diacritics not superimposed), or “ị” (with underdot directly beneath, not kerned to the left), without breaking words such as “gầu” or “vịt” (using a monotype font for these letters would create gaps to each side of the ầ or the ị). Head-note has corrected examples;
● Site Skin addenda to block / shrink tags, and block authors / works;
● even a quick way (code included) to simply make a Site Skin so that you can read everything in your font of preference!Full code is included.
I read, appreciate, and reply to all of your comments — they're always welcome!

“I… I want to help people.” The moment that answer escaped, Beomgyu regretted it. It had sounded childish. Soobin laughed.
“Then help me, altruistic boy.”Beomgyu shouldn't get close to Soobin, he's the biggest suspect in the case. But he just can't help it.

Summary
[In progress] A machine is born into BLU from the skillful hands and mind of its resident Engineer, and learns just what it means to be a sentry. As it evolves its way to Level 3 it compiles everything it's learned from the team, but also starts to process more questions: Is it still a machine now, or has it built itself a more complex existence than Engineer has let on? What is life if not a string of functions and a sequence of runtimes, before an end command shows itself?
A very, VERY experimental piece of writing featuring lots of poetry, semi-prose, programming-inspired pseudocode, and just a little bit of that DOS-era retro computer aesthetic. Best viewed on desktop.
Written for TF2 Big Bang 2023 hosted by @hanktalkin.

Summary
There are rumors about the noises the Bats of Gotham use. The chirps and whistles that can be heard all throughout the city at most times of night. The most common rumor being that it’s a warning and threat for criminals in the area. When asked about this theory, nobody can answer why the Bats would warn when their goal is arrest. Some say it’s code for the police, but the officers never have a clue what they’re saying. Some think it’s just actual birds.
The truth is much more simple.

Summary
A Cheshire smile crept my mouth. “Well, I intend to play the game, of course—until I hear the word checkmate.”
Sebastian chuckled and kneeled, raising my hand to his curved lips. “In that case, I shall be your pawn and knight. So then . . .” His voice dropped to a silken whisper. "Move me into place.”
When girls from Lizzie's academy begin vanishing without a trace, the Queen's guard dog delves into the case with Sebastian. There, the duo find strange ciphers left at the scenes of the disappearances. However, it soon becomes clear this is no ordinary kidnapping scheme when Sebastian uncovers a clue from Cielle's past. To complicate matters, as the pair investigates in tandem, the essence of Cielle's soul starts to change. A change that, for the first time ever, tests Sebastian's impeccable aesthetics—and restraint. P O D F I C Here ^^
(The last few chapters contain some of the smuttiest smut I've ever written, ever. EVER. This story was neverr supposed to be this way, but #2020 so OH wellss..)
