Summary
Selene lived a sheltered life, until an act of quiet rebellion caused her to cross paths with an embittered young Huntsman. The resulting encounter risked not only her mother's wrath, but the lives of anyone Salem saw as a threat to her only living daughter's safety.
Thrown into the midst of an ages-long civil war between two cursed immortals, they determine to not only survive, but to bring an end to it. But to do so, they will need allies of their own... from an abused child with a dangerous fire-based Semblance, to a Headmaster who had long since lost all hope and courage. From a group of conspiracy theorists, to a brave Huntress whose eyes represent a deadly threat to both Salem and Selene. From a bandit leader, to an entire race striving for justice and equality.
Together, they will find that there are untapped strengths in Remnant that are willing to carve their own path.

Where and When You Are Needed Most by Manic_Schneebling (RTGLVol10)

Summary
When the Blacksmith sent Team RWBY and Jaune Arc through the magical doorway to where they were needed most, they assumed she was sending them back to Remnant.
The Blacksmith apparently had other ideas. Perhaps she believed there was a better way to get to a Kwisatz Haderach than a galactic jihad, though thousands of years of God Emperor might not be avoidable.

Summary
Two years ago, Jacques Schnee had wielded words as bitterly keen weapons, cutting deeply into his own wife's soul. Four simple words.
I NEVER LOVED YOU.
Such simple words. Such a devastating blow. Driving her to seek refuge in alcohol from a life turned into a lie. Drink became a sweet absolution that cushioned her from the pain, but also drove a wedge between her and the only things she had left, her children and her own self-worth.
And then a simple mistake nearly cost Willow Schnee her life, and threw her into the path of a rakish Atlesian Huntsman who had already faced and beaten his own share of demons.
Saving the life of an Atlesian Lady is one matter. Saving her from herself is the more difficult task.
Canon Divergence due to events ten years prior to RWBY Volume 1.

Summary
Most girls are born, but Penny wasn't like other girls.
When Dr. Pietro Polendina set out to produce a solution to Atlas' most potentially catastrophic problem, he thought he understood the parameters of what he was creating. But sometimes, what emerges from applied technology is not what was envisioned in theory.
(A GrimmlingVerse side-story / compilation)

Summary
Heroes saved the city. Now they have to save themselves.
After the destruction of Torrance at the hands of Shroud and the Red Ring, Robert and the Z-Team work to rebuild their lives and the city they protect. With the Astral Pulse back in his hands, he resumes his role as both dispatcher and Mecha Man—but which aspect of his life does he truly want?
Meanwhile, Robert and Courtney formally begin their relationship, navigating the challenges of superhero life together—where emotional vulnerability can feel more dangerous than any villain. As she fully embraces her place on the side of good, Courtney struggles with her identity as Invisigal, questioning whether she can ever fit the mold of a “classic” superheroine.
Blonde Blazer, now powerless as Mandy, discovers new ways to help people without her amulet—reflecting on what it truly means to be a hero and whether that identity aligns with the life she wants to lead.
Still Standing is my take on a 'hypothetical Season 2' of Dispatch, and a post-canon narrative about resilience, personal growth, and the choices that define who we are: both in the mask and beneath it.

Summary
“Okay. Um. My parents are expecting me back home for Christmas.”
“… that’s it?” Courtney asks, scoffing. “Okay, so? We won’t break anything while you’re gone if that’s what you’re worried about.”
“That’s not—” Mandy starts, before she sighs. “They want to meet you. Both of you.”Mandy brings Robert and Courtney home for Christmas for the first time to meet her parents. And her siblings. And their kids. Somehow it's even more chaotic than a day at the SDN office with the Z-team which is, you know, saying something.
Established relationship, alternating POV.

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.
