Filtering/Blocking Works in the Merlin AO3 Tag (Using Tag ID Numbers) by the_bi_ballerina
Fandoms: Merlin (TV), Fanwork Research & Reference Guides - Fandom
19 Mar 2024
Tags
Summary
This is a guide on filtering fanworks in the "Merlin (TV)" fandom on AO3, particularly for the sake of saving filters according to your individual preferences.
This includes a list of tag ID numbers for notable tags under the Merlin fandom tag. That way, you can filter and search by tag IDs rather than tag names, and thus preempt the possibility of losing your filters if a tag name changes.
For more general information and tools that support filtering and blocking on AO3, not specific to any particular fandom, see the collection which contains this work (and its parent collection).

Summary
Time is the force that shapes life. It is the constant that drives change and evolution. As time flows, life adapts and thrives in new environments and challenges. New forms of intelligence and culture emerge, creating diverse and complex societies. But what if the ancient creatures that once ruled the earth met the modern ones that now inhabit it?
(Yes, this is Splatoon fanfiction.)
(A word of caution, this story is still a work in progress. Very much so. I may change the chapters as I see fit. That would include grammar fixes, sentence rewrites, and, if necessary, full chapter rewrites.)

Notes on Iron-Blooded Oprhans by The_Librarian
Fandoms: 機動戦士ガンダム 鉄血のオルフェンズ | Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans
16 Mar 2024
Tags
Summary
A series of essays and other short pieces regarding the anime 'Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans, concerning characters, setting, story, assorted minutia, and any other items of interest that caught my attention.
These are edited, archived versions of posts I originally made on my Tumblr blog under the title 'IBO Reference Notes' and will be updated in due course as I produce more such posts. Full spoilers for both seasons of the anime should be expected; trigger warnings will be given at the top of each 'chapter'.

Summary
This book is a catalog full of information that you would typically have to hunt for- let me explain.
Oftentimes I'll be reading a fic and will think to myself, 'Wow this author is really well researched, I would hate to do that shit when I'm not motivated...' and I sort of realize that it must have been tiring, and perhaps tedious to try and research the logistics of a character *actually* being in a popular band, or *actually* running a business. (this sounds like a goddamn sales pitch-)
Obviously some authors (maybe even you!) may don't enjoy the process of searching for info specifically for this character- and more power to them! They (you) are welcome to put that info and research in the comment section, I can even add onto it and publish it as a chapter. (obvi with credits)
But I am just trying to do the research so you don't have to! (for the low low price of crumbs of validation!!)You can also leave requests if you want, not 100% that I'll fully research them, but I'll try to look into it and give as much info as possible.
Overall, I'm just trying to get as much niche info to whoever wants it, as possible.

Summary
Did you know that the Locked Tomb books can be mapped almost perfectly onto ancient Egyptian mythology?
TL,DR: John is Ra, Alecto is both the primordial flood and the „Eye of Ra“, and the OG Lyctors are the Great Ennead. Griddlehark get to play the role of Horus.The events leading up to the Resurrection can be compared to the Myth of the Heavenly Cow, also the known as “The Destruction of Mankind”; the Resurrection itself to the Helipolitan creation myth; the battle at the end of GtN with the fight between Horus and Seth, and John and the Lyctors on the Mithraeum with the Journey of Ra.
