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
“I hardly believed it,” said Maedhros. “What are you doing here?”
"I bring a message from my father."
Maedhros blinked. "Really?"
Fingon grinned. "I believe his exact words were: you're visiting who, well if you must you must, say something suitable, something something friendship something something kinsmen, tell him good job keeping my brother's sons out of trouble, I'd rather wrestle another ice bear myself – but don't say it like that!"
_Fingon goes to visit Maedhros, accidentally arrives during a Fëanorion family reunion, and quickly regrets many (but not all) of his life choices.

Summary
He picks the name because it sounds good and because he can hardly use the one he's been called for the past twenty years of his life.
(And if he likes the legacy inherent in it, in the idea of having a line of ancestors he knows and can be proud of, it's not something he thinks on overmuch.)

The night of the thirtieth of July saw a tense Harry Potter glare up at the worn hands of his Heirloom clock, as they ticked slowly over onto midnight.
It seemed as though he watched for the official arrival of his eighteenth birthday with a composed sort of madness

Summary
CHAPTER 24 IS A QUESTION BASED ON A REVIEW I GOT. I'M JUST TRYING TO SOLICIT MORE OPINIONS ON THE SUBJECT.
Sansa lifted her arms, slipping into a gray dress with snowflakes embroidered across the bodice by her hand. She left her hair down with the exception of two braids twisting around the crown of her head in a simple northern style. She was of the north. She was the daughter of Winterfell, descendant of the Winter Kings. Her mother was Catelyn Tully of Riverrun. Today, no later, she would enter the Tower of the Hand to speak with Tywin Lannister, Lord of Casterly Rock, Shield of Lannisport, Warden of the West, and Hand of the King.

Summary
“Professor… what is that?” Harry asked.
“Something which is beyond help,” Albus Dumbledore replied.
“It’s the horcrux, isn’t it?” Harry pushed. “That’s the part of Tom Riddle’s soul that’s been in my head all this time.”
“Yes, Harry.”
Harry looked at the shivering thing under the bench. It was gross, yeah, but it was also kind of sad.
--
When Harry dies, he doesn't take Albus-Dumbledore-who-is-actually-just-a-nice-face-of-Death's word for it when he says the horcrux is beyond help. Harry, being Harry, decides to help. Turns out that when you're Master of the Deathly Hallows and you ask Death to help you with something, you might get more than you bargained for. Like thrown a hundred years back in time to fix all the things that the people who've been interacting with the Hallows since then have mucked up. Or, you know, chaos. As per usual regarding Harry, Tom, and Albus.Bookmarked by springleaf

Summary
“So fierce,” the man mocks, face creasing in a wicked smile as he sits up straight once again. “I fear I’ve insulted the lady and that is, of course, intolerably rude of me.”
He raises his hand, fingers twisting in the air in front of him, and then, wrapped around his fingers is a small golden snake.
Its eyes are a brilliant green that matches his.
“A gift then,” he grins at her as he lowers the hand back down, “to beg your humble forgiveness.”

All of it is very firmly meant to be about twenty or so years in Tony’s past.
