Summary
“How…childish,” Ciel murmurs, turning the bracelet this way and that. Surely this is meant as a jest, the beast teasing him somehow. Thinly veiled patronization disguised as affection.
But even as Ciel scowls at the damned thing, it only seems to gleam brighter as it captures rays of light, sparkling like the waves crashing against the pier. He almost finds that more insulting. That the piece is so lovely. That he likes it.
How revolting.
Or: After Brighton, Ciel is left with more than just a souvenir and the memories of his and Sebastian's time by the sea. Misery loves company, as they say, if only he had a little less of both.

Summary
“You aren’t afraid I’ll go to prison for murder. You’re afraid of something else. Something worse.”
“I took that remaining assailant's life so he wouldn’t report to his employer that a dishwashing uni student foiled their plan to kill Vincent Phantomhive’s spare. The police are of no concern to me,” the boy says simply.
“Must be nice,” Sebastian cracks a knuckle, still sore from that night. “To be so far up your own arse.”
“Well, I’ve only gotten rave reviews, but considering who gave them…” Ciel trails off, a nasty smirk on his busted lips.
Sebastian chokes on a laugh. “You’re mad.”
“I hear trauma can do that to a person. Or perhaps it’s the inbreeding. Guess we’ll never know.”
Or: Ciel Phantomhive decides to play a dangerous game against an opponent he can't possibly defeat. Unfortunately for those around him, he's willing to sacrifices a lot more than pawns to get his revenge. Sebastian is just along for the ride.

Summary
Sebastian does not need to be told what the boy requires, nor does he attempt to hide his terrible amusement any longer. A manic grin slashes across his face as he lifts his master’s sticky chin to lock eyes with his own hellish crimson irises. “You want to be the baby, do you? Mummy’s beloved baby boy?”
Embarrassed tears flood that heterochromatic gaze as a stubbornness sets in his jaw…but nonetheless, Ciel nods. Once, twice, then puckers his lips for a kiss. Such an innocent act for one so keen on diving into depravity.
Or: Ciel has a mommy kink, and Sebastian always knows just how to please his master.

Summary
“Would you bend over Father’s desk for me, I wonder?”
My desk, Ciel thinks childishly, even as he gets wetter at his brother’s taunting. Everything in this bloody house belongs to me. Including you…especially you.
“Would you beg for more when I was done?” Then that silver tongue flicks at his left nipple, his brother taking it into his mouth and inflicting a vicious bite.
Ciel’s spine bows, his fingers twisting into storm-colored locks. “Nuh—oh!”
“Liar.” He laps at the blood beading around Ciel’s areola, his moan guttural. “I hear you most nights. You and that dog. When you scream for him. When he makes you hurt. Will you sound just as sweet for me, baby brother?”
Or: The twins learn how to cohabitate after years apart...one disagreement at a time.

Summary
Taking a breath, he coats the tip of his finger in a generous layer and brings it to his mouth. He paints his lips until they’re fully covered and as vibrant as one of Jack the Ripper’s crime scenes. As the gown he placed over Angelina Dalles’ open casket.
“Oh dear,” Sebastian’s voice suddenly rumbles, dark and sultry in his ear. “I leave an Earl and return to a common whore.” Ciel’s eyes slip shut, just as a gloved hand brushes along his bare inner thigh where his hemline must have ridden up. Where it now continues to. “Tell me, what’s your price, madam?”
Or: Ciel finds a jar of rouge that once belonged to his late aunt. Memories stir...as well as a few other things.

Summary
Sebastian and demon!Ciel move back to London just in time for Ciel’s one hundred fiftieth birthday, but the milestone, as well as his unreadiness to confront his past, only brings him doubts on how well he can handle an immortal life with Sebastian.

A Year is not Long in the Lifespan of the Empire by Dog_Star_Sirius
Fandoms: Kuroshitsuji | Black Butler

Summary
A year is nothing to the Empire, but it is everything to the men caught inside it.
Ciel has mastered the art of survival in the Galactic Senate. Once the ruler of Naboo and now one of the Empire’s most promising young senators, he has learned to move through power with flawless composure. Beneath that control, however, he guards two secrets with equal precision: his connection to the Force and his attachment to the Sith assigned to train him.
Across the galaxy, Sebastian wages war in the Emperor’s name, his loyalty unquestioned and his power undeniable. Distance does not diminish him, but it tests him in ways battle never could. He tells himself that what ties him to Coruscant is duty, unfinished training, political necessity, anything but the truth.
In an Empire that condemns attachment as weakness, love may be the most dangerous power of all.
(You can be clueless about Star Wars and still understand this, I promise. You can also read solo, no need to follow the series.)

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.
