Summary
This is a live example of how an author can create linked footnotes in their work with only a little bit of HTML and no workskins required. This is best viewed by clicking "Entire Work". While I've included the actual coding in bold and italic once you click "Hide Creator's Style", there's a more detailed explanation here.
EDIT 6/28/17: The third chapter now shows how to use anchor links as an index/table of contents.

Summary
The officer who came to explain the terms of the probation had a sad smile on his face the whole way through. He seemed like he was trying to be sympathetic at first, telling them about the mandatory school transfer and the probation terms, but when he got to the part about “removing Akira-kun from bad influences,” Chou couldn’t see the smile as anything less than sadistic.
“I know you’re facing a lot of pain right now, Kurusu-san,” the officer had said. “But perhaps better parenting would have helped Akira-kun know that he shouldn’t assault people in the street.”
---
OR, Takeshi and Chou Kurusu aren't bad people. They never stopped loving their son, not for a single second.

Summary
Magical genetics are very complicated. Far more complicated than the typical witch or wizard knows. It was never as simple as Pureblood, Halfblood, Muggleborn. When one little girl-far too bright for her age-learns this, who she shares it with will lead the world into a revolution. But with age old prejudices ingrained into a society barely a decade after war, will this revolution be a good one? Can it?
One little change on an otherwise ordinary day in Diagon Alley will lead to a chain of events that drastically alters the future of The Boy Who Lived. After all, there are millions of different ways a conversation in a robes shop can go.

Summary
The Dreaming is a fluid place. Malleable. Changeable. Illogical. It reaches between and connects different points in time in certain places, allowing glimpses of the past and future.
What if the walls between the Multiverse are just a little weaker here?
What if we could see into the Dreaming Next Door?
Or:
The only reason Lucifer sees her enter is because he’s already scanning the entrance of Lux to see if the Detective has arrived.
He changes the next song in his routine.
(Enter Sandmaiden sounds a bit odd on the piano, but it’s worth it to see the Lady Shaper’s face when she hears him sing the words “I tuck you in, warm within, keep you free from sin, til the Sandmaiden comes!”)
Aka: the genderbent Morpheus fic bc if Netflix can do it then so can I

Summary
This is no dumb animal, Paul realizes with a sudden chill.
'Who are you, little mouse,' the susurrations of the waiting worm seem to say. 'You are no child of my desert. What manner of creature are you that enters my domain?'
'I am no one, Great Maker,' his trembling fingers reply as they sink into the dusty grains beneath them. They grasp at the rough texture in desperation, in supplication before this desert god. 'I am lost. My family is gone, my people are scattered, and I, with them. Where do I go from here?'
tldr; I prompted myself: 'ok cool cool but like, what if Paul could speak to sandworms?'
