Summary
Athena and Ares are 11 and 10 respectively when their Mom is pregnant with a new sibling. And that's not the only big change waiting in the wings for the family... specifically Athena, who stands to gain a brother and lose a friend...
i.e exploring the time before Hephaestus is born as well as how Pallas and Athena grew apart, because everything tends to happen at once in life...
For Athena this means confronting the fear of not belonging in her own family, the fear of losing another mom, and the reality that her only friend might not be as much of a constant as she always thought. The owl is strugglingPart of my modern human AU
it's a mixed bag tbh, start whereever ;) Necessary notes in the chapter notesSeries

Summary
Hera did not agree to having Zeus' daughter, a reminder of his sins and disregard of her feelings, back on Olympus, but the fates have brought the young Athena into the divine halls and into Hera's life.
She vows to be civil but nothing more, after all, the girl has a father, and Hera is not her mother.
Fate, as usual, has entirely different plans.Aka, shameless Mom!Hera propaganda featuring sickfic :)
Also hurt/comfort cos if I do say so myself, that's my specialty :3Updates on Thursdays :3

Summary
(Modern Human AU)
Ares and Athena have always been birds of a feather, and moving into an apartment together was the natural progression of things. If you ask Ares, things are going swell. He finally has his own place with his sister, and he recently found a perfect match in Aphrodite.But when his girlfriend and himself return home from a week-long trip, they don't find things as they left them. Mainly, they don't find Athena how they left her.
---
in plain words, Athena's mental health is a mess and now Ares has to confront that he didn't see this coming.
Also this is the last part in the series, but only bc I put all my works for this series chronologically plotwise, this is actually the one i started with, so feel free to check it out first :3
More about the series in the notes.If this shows up on your dash on Jun 30th / with 37 chapters, the most recent update is the rewrite of chapter 2, so check that out if you haven't :3

Summary
Athena's been hurt, much more thoroughly than she realized was possible. For the first time in her immortal life, she is fighting against her own body and mind, and she doesn't know how to win.
Odysseus is home. After two more weeks on sea, a fight with 108 suitors and reunited with his family, he’s quietly accepted that even a desperate prayer won’t bring his former mentor to come back. Little does he know, for two weeks, it’s all Athena’s been trying to do.
Or, what if after God Games, Athena doesn’t wake up in the infirmary? What if it’s up to a few mortals to take care of the goddess that just collapsed in their palace, looking like she should very much be dead?
Updates biweekly on Sundays :)

CSS in Testing by InfinitysWraith

Summary
This is a flaming dumpster filled with CSS and HTML experiments. It's not instructional, but I post the code and my own explanations for both our sakes. Feel free to steal the code or ask me questions- I don't know what I'm doing. :)
(Pics are mine though)
Chapter 5 is probably what you're looking for ;)
I'm not going to say I take requests, but I'm always looking for inspiration.
It seems I've broken Ao3 yet again. I can no longer add more code to my work skin so we're moving on to part two!

How to create a work skin to have different fonts and colors in your works by Goddess_of_the_arena

Summary
This is a tutorial on how to use different fonts on Ao3, how to make them in different sizes and how to make them colored as well.
It also contains two ready-to-use codes to give your fonts a gradient effect. There are both the code for the linear gradient effect and the code for the radial gradient effect.
CHAPTER 2 contains the visual examples of every font that you find in chapter 1.
WARNING: all the codes in this guide were tested on a computer. I can't guarantee the effect when the work they are applied to is read on a mobile phone.Series

Summary
Senior year—a time to focus on grades, plan for college, maybe party…and keep your little siblings from burning your school down too. Athena had never expected to start her last year at Olympia High with seven young gods she used to only see at home. Ares had never expected to start his junior year in his big sister’s shadow either. Unfortunately, neither can go against their father’s plans. So, they just have to accept that for the next school year, they are going to be seeing each other. A. Lot. Well, at least it is not all bad. The war siblings can probably stomach this, but it also might be a good thing that they literally cannot kill each other.
