About the AO3 "No Guest Comments for a while" warning
If you're not following any of AO3's social media accounts you might be in the dark as to what kind of "spam comments" have engendered this banner at the top of the site:
These spam comments have been posted about a great deal on the AO3 subreddit for the past couple of days. Initially they comprised a bunch of guest (logged out users) bot comments that insulted authors by suggesting they were using AI and not writing their own fics. Some examples, from the subreddit:
But it then escalated to outright graphic porn images and gifs being posted in comments, again by logged out 'Guest' accounts. Obviously, I'm not going to give examples of those, but between these two bot infestations, AO3 has clearly decided to act and has temporarily closed the ability to post comments for users who are not logged in with an AO3 account.
Unfortunately, this means that genuine readers who don't have an AO3 account won't be able to leave comments on fics that they enjoy.
If you are a genuine reader who doesn't yet have an AO3 account, I strongly suggest getting yourself on the waiting list for one. More and more AO3 authors are now locking their fics down to registered users only - either due to these bot comments or concerns about AI scraping their work - which means you're probably missing out on a lot of great stuff.
Hopefully guest commenting will be enabled again at some point soon, but I suggest not waiting until then. Get yourself on that list.
Wait times are going to be longer than usual at the moment, due to the current Wattpad purge [info on Fanlore | Wattpad subreddit thread], but if you're in line, then your invite will come through eventually.
Update: There's now a Megathread about this on the AO3 subreddit.

That Summer
Chapter five - Picture on the Wall
Isak looked over at Even lying beside him. From the side, he could see that he had closed his eyes under his sunglasses. He had a small, content smile on his lips Isak wanted to kiss. He could do that now, thatās pretty much all they had been doing these last few days. It was a heady thought, to know that he could kiss Even if he wanted to; that he could lean over to press his lips against Evenās, or even just look at him and give the slightest tilt of his chin for Even to know what he was asking for and give it to him instantly, heartily.

@anaisanais-stuff throwback to you and me in your kitchen, telling each other our fic plots, red wine instead of tea š„²š
New idea: instead of writing the fic, you come over to my house and I tell you the entire plot while I pace my tiny kitchen. Thereās a cup of tea, warm in your hands. The words donāt stop and the affection never leaves your expression.

Wishing my dearest @lokkanel a wonderful birthday today! One of my first and best fandom friends, who encouraged me to write, who patiently betaed my first fics and who made me a far better writer today because of it. Her stories captivate me, her effortlessly quiet writing leaves me in awe. Her deep generosity inspires me. So to celebrate her and her Skam fics, hereās a piece of fanart for one of her stories. It was definitely hard to choose. I went with something to give you all the angsty feels.
Happy Birthday Dear! ā¤ļøš§”ššššš

That Summer
Chapter four - The Scar of His Kiss
And yes ā yes, Isak liked Even.
He had felt attracted to him from the moment heād seen him, right there in his living room. Heād liked him from the moment theyād started talking and joking around as they walked home from the supermarket, from the first time Even had invited him to hang out. His crush on Even had grown with every day, every hour, every minute spent together, his desire for him with every smile, every booming laugh, with every light touch, every goodbye hug.

Weāre fanfiction writers, of course:
Weāre going to use song lyrics as titles.
Weāre going to check for comments 30 seconds after we post something.
Weāre going to have more WIPs than days of the week.
Weāre going to use any excuse to post snippets.
Weāre going to use ask box games to procrastinate.
Weāre going to hype up our writer friends.
Weāre going to scream, cry and throw up reading our friendsā work.

That Summer
Chapter three - Eyes of Them All
He had an air of confidence, walking into a party where he didnāt know anyone with his usual beaming smile that caught everyoneās gaze; a warmth as he greeted strangers like they were already friends. He only had to enter a space to become the centre of everyoneās attention.
He shone brightly, without even seeming like he was trying to.

Chapter two - A Life to Unpack
Each time Isak came back to the Bech NƦsheimās house, he could see new changes. There was more furniture in the kitchen and living room; plants on the windowsills and books filling more shelves each day; painting and photos put up on the walls. Only one room didnāt change, remaining empty except for a couch and a messy suitcase.
The more Evenās parents were settling in, the more Isak was reminded that Even wouldnāt.
