    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

    Varka looks back down at his exposed torso and picks a scar. He doesn't know its origin, though he's sure Lohen would jump into a high tale about its creation if he asked. He leans down and presses another tender kiss over the raised skin.

     

    "S-stop," Lohen demands, bucking his hips to try and shake off Varka's firm and gentle hands.

     

    He's never heard a stutter fall from the lips that always carried a smirk and begged for punishment. Varka grew even more determined, his passion and care for the younger man burning bright in his chest. He continues his trail, kissing each scar he comes across as Lohen begins to tremble.

     

    "Quit it!" Lohen tries to deny him, glaring through a blush as he tries to thrash and push Varka away.

     

    "Shh," Varka hushes him gently, lips tickling the jut of his hip, tongue lapping a slow, deep kiss right above his hemline as Lohen flinches and aches his back, head thrown up and away from the image of the love Varka is showing him.

    --

    In which Varka gives Lohen his first experience with gentleness.

    Summary

    After the first day of the Interdarshan Championship, Kaveh asks Alhaitham to praise him during sex—because although the two of them disdain each other, they somehow keep ending up in bed together.

    “Strong,” Alhaitham murmurs, kissing from Kaveh’s thigh to his hip. “Resolute.”

    Stop, Kaveh wants to say. You’re wrong, you’re lying, you’re cruel.

    But he asked for this. He asked Alhaitham to take him to bed and praise him, to make him feel like he’s not a complete failure.

    Alhaitham knows that Kaveh is none of the words leaving his mouth. Kaveh is neither strong nor resolute, and he is certainly not enough.

    But Alhaitham is a linguist. And that means he’s good with words, Kaveh supposes—even when he doesn’t mean them.

    Summary

    Kaveh expects some offhandedly smug, smooth remark from Alhaitham about how Kaveh’s his senior but never acts like it, or how it was the most logical outcome given the circumstances and he’s being a child for debating with him about it. But he just mumbles, low and almost petulant, “It is what it is.” He won’t meet Kaveh’s eyes. “You can’t move out.”

    Kaveh balks at him before rubbing at his face furiously. “You can’t be serious. You can’t be serious,” he laughs, almost delirious. There’s no way his luck has reached this new low. He knows the ascended heroes on Celestia are guffawing at his misfortune. “Why would you do that when you’ve always wanted me to leave anyway?”

    Alhaitham stares at him for a long moment before sighing, slipping into his seat and sliding his plate of Kaveh’s carefully constructed Fatteh towards him primly. “Why indeed,” he drones, sounding exhausted. “Why indeed.”

    or: in which there’s a cohabitation clause in sumeru city’s body of legislation; a pair who lives together for longer than six months, files taxes together, and presents as a couple are considered married by law. who knew. (alhaitham, apparently.)

    Summary

    Alhaitham wakes up from anesthesia disoriented, amnesia-ridden, and unable to make much sense of the world. He may not be able to remember the beautiful man at his bedside by name, but he has no doubt that he's the love of his life.

    The look in Alhaitham’s eyes was entirely unlike the cool, aloof mask he normally wore, usually impenetrable as a brick wall.

    “Um - you’re... stupid when you come out from anesthesia, I guess, good to kno-”

    “Pretty...” Alhaitham interrupted, eyes soft with adoration as he stared up at Kaveh. “So, so pretty,” he repeated, voice tender and reverential. “Are we married?”

    “Are we what? O-of course not,” Kaveh spluttered, far too flustered by Alhaitham’s uncharacteristic sweetness.

    Absolute devastation flashed across Alhaitham’s chiseled, handsome features, lips curling downward. He was pouting.

    “Why not? Have I... not proposed yet? Damn. Why don’t you let me kiss you, show you why you should marry me. C'mere,” he mumbled groggily, tugging on Kaveh’s hand with surprising strength for someone who’d just awoken from surgery.
