    I was lost and couldn't find
    You gave me sight when I was blind
    You showed me love
    You showed me hope
    I was bruised so bad inside

    Summary

    “I- you’re gonna think it’s stupid.” The instinct to tell Carson everything, like always, wars with 27 years of instinct to bury her idiosyncrasies deep down inside where no one will ever call them too much. Greta never once asked Dana for this favor, and never felt comfortable with a single other woman to lay in a bed with them quietly, chastely, sweetly. She never got close to feeling this safe with anyone, in a long time. Greta’s never, ever felt comfortable enough to ask for what she wants.

    But Carson, maybe – Carson, with her gentle hands and soft eyes and the way she always takes care of Greta, her kindness, her love. Carson, maybe, will understand – or if not, she won’t laugh.

    or: five times greta's uncomfortable in a way she can't explain, and the ways carson just understands.

    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

    Greta "I Don't Give a Fuck About Men" Gill won't let Carson's doodoohead of a boyfriend ruin their one chance a month to sweat off some stress. Instead, Greta plans a night in, complete with pizza, wine, and plans to turn Carson's spirits around. What she doesn't plan for, however, is a string of self-discoveries that, well...

    “Car, please. I need to see your eyes.”
    Finally, she lifts her head, hair falling back onto her face, sticking to the faint line of fresh tears trailing down her cheek.
    “Do you trust me? Honestly, for sure, do you trust me?"
    Carson gives the slightest of nods. Greta doesn’t say anything, nor does she do anything. She simply waits. She waits for Carson to speak up, to use the voice she so rarely gets the chance to.
    She takes the hint, her voice quavering, but audible. “I trust you, Greta. Honest.”
    Greta lifts one hand, delicately tucking the wet piece of hair back behind a red-hot ear. “There you are, little one. Now…come here.”

    Summary

    She appreciated the fact that as the stranger spoke, Greta could feel her voice reverberate in her ribs, mingling with the rise and fall of her breathing and the pulse of her heartbeat. This combination ushered Greta towards a stillness that she had missed, temporarily silencing the painful thoughts. A weight fell across her eyelids and she could feel herself drifting off in the comfort of the stranger’s arms.

    ------
    After Dana is forced to break up with Greta by her parents, Greta is sent into a downward spiral. When she eventually ends up at the emergency department waiting for a mental health assessment, she is left alone for several hours. Only a stranger, in for a dislocated ankle, sits with her to make sure she is okay.

    1 year later, Greta wants to get in touch with the stranger who showed her kindness, leading her to finally meet Carson. Unbeknownst to her, this is also the catalyst she so desperately needs to heal from her past trauma.

    Summary

    Is there any better way to look like a complete fool than to say you don’t even know what you like in bed?

     

    Or, Carson’s never been with a woman before, but that’s not the problem—it takes trust, and patience, and time to learn what you like, and before Carson met Greta, no one ever waited to find out.

    Forgive me, love, forgive me, love, I make my mistakes. And I know sometimes it's more than you can take. But give me one more chance ‘cause the circumstance is that I'm just a beginner. —Macy Gray, “First Time.”
