@cookies1898 oh more things i forgot
"subscribe" to someone's profile means follow them
the symbols on the left of the story mean a bunch of things:
the first one on the top left is rating (teen and up, general, mature, etc)
top right is genders of the relationships (M/M, F/M, etc)
bottom left is if there is warnings (major character death, rape, violence, etc)
bottom right is if the story is complete or not
theres all these tags under the name stories, the first ones are the relationships (couples and friendships), the next ones are the characters in the story, and the last ones are random things the author chose to put there to describe the fic
also, there no library so to keep up with a story you have to keep a tab open on your browser (which sucks)
