AO3 hosts more than 18 million works, including many sexually explicit stories, and writing inspired by popular IP, such as Harry Potter, Twilight and Heated Rivalry.

And the fans have been sharing “fics” on drives to keep each other going while their online haven is down. The non-profit behind AO3, announced the site would be offline for two to four weeks, citing a “security incident”.
