Today's a gloriously sunny fall day, ideal for climbing. And here's me, having a cold. $%#&! So far it's not even a bad cold *knock on wood* but climbing is gonna be a no-go for at least a few days.

On the plus side I had six Leverage eps stored up and used yesterday's forced inactivity to catch up on ep 5, 6, and 10 (because... Sophie, Nate and Sterling ♥) That did help put me in a better mood.

I was lamenting AO3's lack of searchability with some fellow Nat/Clint shippers and we got to talking about how what this archive needs is a way to distinguish between main vs secondary pairings/characters.

So that when I search for Rodney/Jennifer I don't get listed 90% breakup fic with endgame McShep; and when I search for Nick Fury I don't get 1800+ results with no way of finding the five or six stories which are actually centered around him. Not exactly conductive to diversity if the less popular content gets drowned out by more popular stuff to the point where it becomes almost impossible to find.

I don't know if the chances for a requested feature to be implemented are better the more people ask for it, but just in case:
These are the feature requests, the main/secondary tags suggestion is listed in the left column. You can add your vote on that site but I don't know how. I added my vote by submitting a new support request.
