Summary
“Bl-Blazer, wait—” he calls out and struggles, chains clanging together. "Blazer, come back, I-I can—”
“You can what, Bob Bob? Pass out and fall on your dumb face?”
The air in Robert’s lungs leaves him all at once.
He had expected Blonde Blazer.
He had not expected to see six familiar criminals standing in the doorway.
___What if the Z-Team came woth Blande Blazer to save our beloved dispatcher?

Summary
“It’s not a real kid, Chase.”
Chase is technically underage, he’s a year away from being able to drink but the bartender didn’t bother to check his ID. Chase has always looked a little older than he was, it works in his favor now.
Nobody at a hero bar like this would assume he was so young.
“How the fuck do you think that?” Chase asks, spits. His hands still shake with the memory of it. The beer in his hand shakes with the tremors of his hands. “How the fuck do you do it?”
Mechaman sighs, deep, disappointed. He leans back, taking his whiskey with him.
The rest of the Brave Brigade was downstairs, drinking in victory, dancing with the other heroes, celebrating.
“It’s the Astral Pulse.”

Summary
Z-Team is paired with X-Team for a joint operation to track down and bust a child smuggling operation spanning across their bordered districts.
Z-Team may be ex-criminals, but everyone can agree a pedophile is a waste of a cell room and is much better off rotting six feet under.
How Robert Robertson can look at the perps marched through their doors with indifference is what rubs Z-Team the wrong way.

Summary
Robert is kind of twitchy and the Z-Team is, you know, a gaggle of morally compromised fucknuggets. As the team starts to get a little too comfortable play-razing their new dispatcher, someone takes a prank too far and gets an uncomfortable snapshot into what superhero PTSD looks like. AKA: Robert gets no shit triggered at the office.

Summary
One of the main characters - the only surviving witness to a murder - has just woken from a coma. Not only is she entirely cognizant, but the first thing that the subtitles say she asks for is a lawyer.
“What are you fucking giggling about?”
The other person that’s been paying attention is Flambae. He’s right next to Robert on the couch, his arm slung over the top behind his head. One foot is propped up on the other knee, also pointing towards Robert, which has him caged in the corner by the arm rest. It’s probably some fucked-up power move. Robert has been ignoring it just to spite him.
“It’s just not how comas work,” Robert shrugs.
“Right, and you know because you’re a fucking doctor,” Flambae quips back.
“I know because I was in one, asshole.”
------
During a quiet night in, Robert realizes that his coma and injuries aren't common knowledge among Z-Team.
Most of them take the information in stride with jokes aplenty.
Flambae does not.

Summary
“You’re really suggesting this,” Martin says, voice pulled thin.
“Yes.” No hesitation.
“You would- actually do it?”
“I would.”
“With me.”
“Yes, Martin.”
“Why?” Because love is blind, says something cliché and cruel in the pit of his gut. Christ, he never was much of a poet, was he?Or,
When Jon asks Martin to Quit the Archives with him, Martin says yes. Things don't go as planned. In the Scottish Highlands, they hurt, and they heal.

Summary
Jonathan Sims hated himself every time he flinched at Martin’s touch. It wasn’t fair, he didn’t deserve that, he’d never done anything to make John react that way. But Elias had. Jonah Magnus. They’d had a few weeks of bliss in Scotland, but he should have known his former boss would never let him go that easily.
Jonah had found a way to take control of Martin’s body and John couldn’t fight back or he’d risk hurting the man he loved.

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 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.

Summary
“Fine,” Jon says, and he tries to ignore the sulky tone of his voice, “fine. What do you suggest?”
Martin pauses, like he’d not expected Jon to give in so easily. Jon’s never been particularly agreeable, but he still feels vaguely offended by the blatant surprise. “W-we,” Martin stammers, clears his throat, continues on much more confidently, “we go in together.”
Or: it takes close quarters and a full 24 hours to finally get them on the same page.

Summary
“What do you need?” Jon asks, letting the compulsion wind around his words, but his voice stays soft, gentle. There is no threat behind it. Not for Martin.
“I—this is so stupid, I'm sorry, I know you don't do things like this, but I just—want to know you.”

Summary
‘There’s not a… sixteenth fear entity emerging, is there?’ asked Martin.
‘What? No. Of course not,’ said Peter, frowning. ‘I need you to go and visit Elias and deliver a message from me.’
‘Um,’ said Martin. This sounded worse, actually.
Martin had thought isolating himself from the rest of the world and reading horrible statements about the end of humanity was the worst his job as Peter's assistant could throw at him. It turned out he was very, very wrong.

Summary
Hi Jon and all,
I would like to extend my congratulations, I suppose, to you Mr. Sims. You have reached 500 complaints here at HR! I have never seen this happen before, except for the researcher in Artifact Storage who found a Leitner that made everyone think she was assaulting them constantly. In your three years as the Head Archivist, you received these complaints from over 130 people.- Language:
