The Rhythm of Life : North and South Retold by philipaholt
Fandoms: North and South - Elizabeth Gaskell | UK TV, North and South - Elizabeth Gaskell
14 Oct 2022
Tags
Summary
This was my first North and South fanfiction that I wrote almost 12 years ago (cue internal screaming) . It’s a modern retelling of the original Gaskell story. If modern’s not your thing, give me a chance to steal your soul. I’ve made a few converts over the years.
Go on then. Have a peek. This is where my John and Maggie were born.
But yeah, it’s old. It’s got warts, and all sorts of problems. I’ve posted this on here before, but for some odd mental insecurities, took it down. A friend (Shout out, TRavine) encouraged me to post it here again. So here we are. I’ll be quick editing through the chapters. Enjoy!

Summary
There are some great quick guides to HTML on A03. This is not one of them - it is a comprehensive guide, dividing all of the available tags into the following categories:
1. Text Formatting (in-line HTML)
2. Page Formatting (block HTML)
3. Tables and Lists
4. Links and ImagesEach tag will 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.
It will also introduce tag attributes, ways to further refine formatting, for a few simple - but widely applicable - cases.

More Man than You by kimboo_york, u_spelaeus
Fandom: Captain America (Movies), The Avengers (2012)
12 May 2018
Summary
The first part of the series is a 2k word study guide which explains a lot about how Steve (and Bucky, and Howard) would have viewed what we call homosexuality. I even include a glossary and references. Go me.
The first story (which is the second part of the series) explores how he gets involved with the queer culture of the 1930s, how that affects his relationship with Bucky, and what it means when he becomes involved with Howard Stark. It addresses Steve's self-perceptions about his own body and sexuality in an era that was both highly restrictive of gender roles and far more open about sexuality than we realize.
Status of Sins of the Father:
The second story (which is the third part of the series) occurs after Steve is pulled from the ice, and how he adapts to vastly different world. It is definitely a multi-shipper fic, with both Steve/Tony/Pepper AND Steve/Winter Soldier. It's still far from complete because my original draft and timeline got derailed when the Winter Soldier forced his way into the plot. It's ongoing and unfinished, so right now you should treat this as a full-on WIP.- Words:
