Summary
Under the leadership of Fire Lord Iroh, the Fire Nation has made every attempt to restore peace and make amends for the harm they inflicted during the Seventy-Year War. Their newest proposal is a literal proposal: a marriage to unite the Fire Nation and the Water Tribes.
The Fire Nation offers Prince Zuko’s hand.
The Water Tribes offer Princess Yue’s.
Sokka is apparently the only person in the world who has a problem with any of this.

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.

“You’re distracting.”
“Huh,” Wilson manages. His hands tense on his folded arms. “Is it my dazzling good looks?”
“You’re an anomaly,” he replies immediately in a snarl.
“I’m- I’m so sorry, I’ll try to avoid 'being an anomaly' next time.”
What happens when two best friends love each other to the point of hating each other? They try to date and sulk about it.

Why Do Non-Canon Ships Become So Popular? (And Why Should Writers Rethink When They Do?) by sarehptar
Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender, Voltron: Legendary Defender, 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
27 Dec 2018

Summary
A vaguely academic examination of the phenomena behind fandom shipping and why certain non-canon ships become exceedingly popular, far overshadowing the popularity of canon ships. This essay touches on common mistakes writers make with female characters and romantic subplots, and suggests a explanation for the enduring popularity of so many m/m ships which have no chance at all of becoming canon. Examples are drawn from Avatar the Last Air Bender, Voltron Legendary Defender (god help me), and My Hero Academia.

Summary
“Who are they even… 'shipping' me with? They know Usopp is with Kaya, and didn’t you just make your whole thing with Vivi public a few weeks ago—“ Zoro trails off as realization hits him, all at once, and he feels his stomach drop in the same way it would whenever he faces a particularly strong opponent in a kendo match.
“No,” he breathes.
“Obviously,” Nami says, shoves her phone into his face and points at a comment that says, OMG PLZ blonde and green are sitting side by side again. OTP! as Zoro sees his life flash before his eyes. “They’re shipping you with Sanji.”
(Or, the one where the Strawhats are Youtube personalities and people, naturally, start shipping Zoro and Sanji.)

A Roomba By Any Other Name by maliciouslycreative

Summary
Dick Grayson may be an adult but right now he needs an adult. An adultier adult. Someone who knows about dishwashers and coupons and Roombas. He’d also prefer if it’s an adult that won’t make too much fun of him. At least not in front of the other adults.
Jason Todd needs a friend. Yah he has friends. Yes, plural. But he can pretty much count them on one hand and he really only sees them when it’s end of the world type stuff. So yah he’d like someone to just binge Netflix with, cook for, and maybe name a Roomba with. He doesn’t even have a Roomba but he’d get one if it meant he didn’t spend every night alone eating microwave burritos.

Dick’s mouth is dry. He doesn’t know why he’s so shocked. It isn’t like he didn’t know that Slade is a contract mercenary. A killer, to the fullest extent of the word. It’s just that—while Slade might have been the bane of his existence when he first struck out as Nightwing, recently…Dick can count more times that Slade’s helped him than hurt him. And he thought Slade was better than this.

Maybe they did.
