As the Cardinal Flies

Here we go again - about a week and a half late, because I was finishing not one but two exchange stories - with an AO3 meme that's in at least half a dozen journals on my reading page. (You know, one of these days I'm going to try to think up one of these with different and more oddball questions....)

I note ahead of time that I have supplied links for some, but by no means all, of the specific works mentioned. This is partly because "all" would involve quite a lot of links, and partly a function of specific context; sometimes, just mentioning the story is enough, and sometimes, it feels appropriate to allow for immediate follow-up action.

[Technical note: After arm-wrestling HTML for an hour, I now think I know exactly how the DW rich text editor is broken where cuts are concerned. Certain kinds of formatting - notably involving indented paragraphs, but there may be other triggers - appear to cause the code parser to replace a "/div" with a "/cut" when one switches the editing mode between HTML and Rich Text (and sometimes when one simply edits the entry), which both causes the cut to break and mangles the syntax for subsequent instances of "div" statements. **Why** the code should do this is beyond me, but it's annoyingly persistent about it.]
