    Summary

    You've seen it. A fic formatted like a classified document. A chapter that looks like a real social media feed. An interactive game, somehow, inside an AO3 work. You clicked the kudos button. You thought: how.

    This is the tutorial that answers that.

    A beginner-friendly guide to HTML and CSS on AO3 — no prior coding experience required. By the end of this series, you'll know enough to write formatted fics, build your own workskins, style your entire AO3 interface, and maybe make something that makes other people stop and think how.

    Summary

    Many had marked their calendars in anticipation of what they were effectively calling “Judgement Day” for one loathsome sinner. The event itself was rather absurdist, the first of its kind, for no sinner had ever caused such an uproar that they demanded a second Judgement post-mortem.

    What punishment, everyone thought, would be fitting for a man who made such history?

    Once, this creature was a man whose voice and manner were adored by the many who followed him. Now, he stood alone, chained, and without the strength to raise his head.

    “Let the Judgement of the Media Overlord, Vox, commence.”

    --

    My personal take on a post-Season 2 redemption arc for Vox, where the Speaker of God takes away Vox's voice as punishment for his crimes in Season 2- this is the Voiceless AU and a RadioSilence Fic

    Summary

    The silence stretched between them then, thick and awkward. Not because they had nothing to say; because they had too much. Too many questions neither wanted to voice first. Too many unspoken rules from Hell suddenly meaningless here.

    Vox finally stood, joints cracking in protest. Annoying. Stupid human body. “Look. All I know is we woke up like this. On Earth. Together. With all our memories and none of our powers. So, congratulations, deer boy, you’re stuck with me.”

    Alastor pinched the bridge of his nose, inhaling sharply through his teeth. “Let me get this straight. I have been forcibly deposited into a mortal vessel, next to you, with no warning, no explanation, and no immediate means of escape?”

    “That’s the gist,” Vox said.

    Alastor stared at him.

    Then laughed.

     

     

    Or Alastor and Vox find themselves trapped in Purgatory with human bodies.

    Summary

    "Radio AND video. Me and you; we could rule Hell, together, as partners"
    "As partners? Are you proposing Vincent?"

    What if instead of laughing his ass off and rejecting Vox, Alastor made Vox propose to him? Aka Alastor having his own agenda while Vox just accepts everything having the time of his life.

    Summary

    We love a title with a double meaning- triple if you read too much into it.

    Basically Vox and Alastor torturing each other - the series.

    Will probably be only two fics long, though.

    Listen to this while reading like I did on repeat while writing this: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3Uswr5kKZOYGzFmpBkPikY?si=IZHPz5xIT4WBJJo1SR7Wow&pi=huWtVlIhT9iSK
