    Summary

    The Republic sends a combat photographer to be attached to the 212th until further notice, citing the need for a morale boost. The clones make up a fake clone, citing the absolute fact that it is very funny.
    Somehow, these two things save the galaxy.

    Summary

    "ART loved its crew. The joy and the love and perfect clarity with what it was supposed to be, what it was supposed to do. ART couldn’t understand how someone could dislike their function - how I could. Once, I had a similar clarity of understanding with my function, then I hacked my governor module and left the company for good, and I had lost it all. It was better, now, in a lot of ways. I had my humans, and ART, and our crew. But in some ways, things were worse.
    I still wasn’t sure what I was supposed to do, ever. I had made one good decision, to stay with ART, a few years ago, and I had been just making the same decision over and over again. It felt kind of like cheating."

    A 20-some year fic in which Murderbot comes to terms with what it means to have a home (or two), a found family (or several), and just what mutual administrative assistance can entail.

    Summary

    On a Cybertron of 13 Primes, the newest is Optimus Prime, the Prime of Knowledge. But with Sentinel Prime (holding the Matrix of Power) missing, the various Primes have become overzealous and disjointed in the ruling of the Cybertronian populace. On a quest to document this and reform the Primacy, Optimus stumbles upon a mech that seems pretty hellbent on untangling the Primal system and giving control of Cybertron to the masses.

    Summary

    It’s the most wonderful time of the year! We can’t wait until we can say Happy Hunger Games in earnest (only another month!), but in the meantime, we are celebrating the best moment of Games from years past. Make sure you also check out our list of the most iconic final showdowns and our favorite post-victory moments.

    What’s on the plate for today? Glad you asked! The Games are all about triumph, but they’re also all about tragedy (which makes those victories even sweeter). Today, we’re looking at 17 final moments from Tributes that we are still thinking about. To make it harder for ourselves, we could only pick one from each Games (so if your favorite didn’t make the cut, that could be why!). Some made us scream, some made us cry, and a few even made us laugh (you’ll see!). Read on!

    This is a lexicon I compiled, with 300+ terms, their alternative forms, their definitions, their alternative definitions, and relative frequencies.

    It aims to define fanonical consensus, and was created to serve as a reference guide for transformers jargon to authors and readers alike. I hope it is of use.

    Summary

    In the aftermath of the time travel incident, Perceptor made a resolution to get to know his lab partner better. He didn’t anticipate that he’d grow so fond of Brainstorm in the process. Blindsided by a rare and deadly illness, he realizes that he’s miscalculated the depths of his regard.

    Perceptor is determined to study and cure the disease with Brainstorm none the wiser. Unfortunately, feelings have never been his area of expertise.

    Jazz turned in his seat, cube at his lips, just in time to spot the white pursuit vehicle steaming and panting in the doorway. “Jazz of Staniz,” the enforcer shouted, “surrender the matrix and come quietly!”

    Jazz knocked back his drink. “Well!” he said to the open-mouthed bartender, “time to split!”

    I cried. Wept, actually. Multiple, multiple times.

    Went away for a bit, had some tea, came back, wept some more. Snack break. Read some robot poetry, cried. May or may not have changed my perception of life and society. Went in wary of the robot sex, came out remarkably okay with it. 👍

     

    There is everything, all the horror and cruelty and injustice, and also love. Always, there’s love.

    Summary

    When Shen Qingqiu fails his first mission, he loses the opportunity to unfreeze the OOC function. He has to go through the events of the story in-character as the original goods. He's sure that he's definitely getting human sticked until he stumbles onto a possible solution: if it's out-of-character to not be evil, what if the scum villain got some character development?

    Meanwhile, Luo Binghe is getting paranoid that his Shizun has started being nice to him. In a really mean way.

    Shen Qingqiu is a horrible, sad, tragic man who lived a horrible, sad, tragic life. Shen Yuan gets the dubious honor of really understanding this.

    Summary

    Some people wonder how to do the mouseovers and hovertext on AO3. This comes in especially handy if you want translations of the text you've written to show up when the original text is moused over (you, of course, must provide the translation). While there are ways to do this in CSS coding, AO3 is not set up to allow it. However, you can do it in basic HTML, and there's a couple different ways to get the look you want. So here you go!

    Note: If read on a phone, these often do not work as intended. Stupid phones.

    Summary

    A Prime is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to… give or take that one small paracausal nudge.

    Or, that time the Matrix got impatient and stole a truck...

    It's only going to get more and more hazardous to binge all of this:
    ✔️ Optimus Prime being iconically wholesome
    ✔️ Cybertron being an exotic mechanical wonderland
    ✔️ Mystery, adventure, and intrigue
    ✔️ Not so much a slow burn as a long fuse
    ❌ Civil war

    Summary

    Everybody knew about the 12th’s lieutenant. The man who had held the position for near a hundred years, and adamantly refused to become a captain. He was the subject of much gossip in the Gotei 13. After all, he made quite the striking figure. Wild orange hair, a permanent scowl, and power that clung tightly to his skin, it really was not an exaggeration that everyone knew him, or at the least, knew about him.

    Everyone, it seemed but Urahara Kisuke himself.

    The very same Urahara Kisuke who as of today was the captain of the 12th.

    Summary

    "Ooh, this is fascinating." Wei Wuxian lifts his hand and—Heavens help him—Lan Wangji's hand follows. Because they're stuck. They're stuck. Their fingers are interlaced, and they can't pull them apart. "You know, I wasn't expecting this, but isn't it odd? It's obviously a curse, but so far, it's not harmful."

    Oh, it is harmful, Lan Wangji thinks through a spinning head as he feels Wei Wuxian twist their hands this way and that, testing the limits of the curse. It is most certainly harmful.

    ----------

    A curse brings Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji together—literally.

    (tl;dr a curse makes teen!wwx and teen!lwj hold hands. lwj, who is very much in denial about his feelings, tries his best not to panic and wwx decides that Operation: Make Lan Zhan My Best Friend is a GO. hilarity ensues)
