How We Operate by MissBAMF

[pointyearsrock.livejournal.com]

HI there, I went to look at my bookmarks today on ao3 to see what stories had been updated and realized that one of my favorite fics of all fucking time, How We Operate, was deleted as well as the author's account. PLEASE tell me the author simply moved her work? Is there anywhere where I can find this fic?! I'm so damn depressed :(

The fic is on ksarchive I think

Actually, the author has it on a custom website now and is in the process of reposting the story there. Here's the website:

I hope this helps! She said she's only posting the first arc on ksarchive but the completed version will be on word press

Yup it's both on Wordpress and KSArchive. The Wordpress is likely to be more reliable though as it is less likely for whatever happened on AO3 to happen again. You can still subscribe to the Wordpress too and you only need an email address if you don't have a Wordpress account :)

Thank you all for the information! This literally made my day!!!! I've been to both, and there's more on Wordpress and given the AN on ksarchive, it looks like only the first arc will be posted there. I've never really used wordpress, but so far I like the website and it seems pretty easy. Thank you for the information!

Afaik the story wasn't deleted by the author but by AO3. It got flagged by some users.

It's on ksarchive here: http://ksarchive.com/viewstory.php?sid=6634&warning=1

Flagged by users? Wtf? Has Ao3 seen some of the shit on their own website? I'm sorry, while HWO does have graphic material, nothing is glorified, and nothing is done without warnings. So much respect lost for Ao3...

Anyway, thank you for the information!

No, apparently, her account was banned by AO3 because she got reported by some users. She says she wasn't even allowed to explain. SMH at these butthurt readers, honestly.
