Summary
"With eyes aglow he suddenly leaned heavily onto the spear, panting heavily with his eyes fluttering close, nodding slowly as the young man felt the wound start to stitch itself back together." Reincarnation.
My own take on how Merlin could possibly end. Written before the final two episodes aired.

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.

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 update this and take a crack at finishing it. (Links and Images are in, the new Audio and Video tags are not.)
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.

NOT A STORY
Just a short piece detailing my understanding of how A/B/O dynamics work. This understanding is what I have in mind when I write A/B/O fics, and may therefore be interesting to read if you have read any of the stories where I use A/B/O dynamics as a plot device.
This is all my own interpretation of the A/B/O dynamic, and is therefore my own opinion.

Violins are stupidly complicated to play well. That’s probably why Sherlock likes them--well, that and because he can annoy the heck out of Mycroft by playing deliberately badly. Luckily, Sherlock fandom, you do not actually have to learn to play the violin! This guide will help you convince your readers that Sherlock knows how to play the violin without requiring you to endure years of violin teachers shouting at you for tiny details of your technique.

Sources and Research Advice for the 00Q Method Ficcer by notbeloved07
Fandoms: Original Work
07 May 2013
Tags
Summary
I am discontinuing writing 00Q, because I'm not really feeling this fandom. However, I am a method ficcer, meaning I put a lot of effort into getting into my characters' heads when I'm writing them, and therefore do a lot of research for ficcing. I think some of what I learned might also be helpful for other writers in 00Q, so I decided to put them all in a post.
Some (but not all) topics covered here are: intercepting mobile calls, getting on secured wifi, lock picking, fighting, explosives, manipulating the the power grid, code injections, biometric security, and where to learn about computer security in general.
