    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

    Peter’s gotten used to Gotham by now. The thousand little sounds that build up to the cacophony of a city in controlled chaos. But it isn’t home, and it never will be, and the more time passes, the more that thought makes him twitch. He’s frustrated by it, annoyed that he feels like he’s forcing his way through a world that doesn’t belong to him. Worse, the Soul Stone is starting to become more and more of an issue. As if it senses something coming.

    Tony's last words had been 'the threat always comes back.' Thanos won't be thwarted forever, only delayed. Eventually, he's going to hunt down the stray Soul Stone that Peter holds.

    The Bats have a few opinions on that. The Avengers that have fallen into this other world have a few of their own. And there's the problem of Dr. Strange's letter...

    Summary

    My first writing attempt in years and my first fanfic: read at your own risk :).

    Damian's brothers are curious: the demon seems to be acting like a real boy. It was subtle at first, but it became increasingly obvious when he called someone they caught "sus". It was even less subtle when they found him scrolling on his phone in a blanket at 2 am and whispered "ding" while flicking his wrist. Needless to say they were concerned.

    Will be continued far in the future...

    Summary

    Damian looks at his notebook, scanning his research.

    Combining what info the internet has provided on good romantic partners, along with some of his own preferences, she’s statistically the best option.

    “Hm. Yes, you will do.”

    “Oh! Uhh… what?...”

    Damian’s family are pestering him to be more of a normal teenager. He doesn’t want to be more of a normal teenager. The average teens he observes at school are brainless savages. But his family is getting so annoying about it he’d do almost anything to get them to shut up.

    Then Marinette Dupain-Cheng transfers to his school. She’s intelligent, quiet, respectful of his boundaries— generally acceptable.

    His family want normal teen behavior? Fine. He’ll bring a girlfriend home.

    “Will you be my girlfriend?”

    Marinette blinks. Ya know what? This might as well happen.

    “Sure.”

     

    Daminette as told through equally socially unaware messes, general misunderstandings of each other's skill and experience, and a total lack of awareness as to how many flowers are too many flowers.

    Summary

    She's left New York to find a place in which she can rest. Preferably no drama, no war.
    Maybe Gotham was a bad place for that, but Gotham had its perk. Surrounding the city, a Screen of mist, filth and the deep sent of stink made Gotham nearly monster proof.
    A win for a powerful demigoddess who just wanted a break.
    Now she's just gotta survive a boring, normal mortal life- except Gotham style

    First published on wattpad (sorry for the formatting I got too lazy to change it)
    Also there’s quite a few errors in here, idk when I’ll get to editing it, but for now bare with it.
