██BLACK BOX WARNING██

so i just saw obsession

a thing I've noticed on ao3 a few times recently from people who I think are probably newer to the platform is authors putting notes in the main text of a fic itself instead of using the built-in notes feature. it's not the biggest problem in the world, it's how you format A/Ns on some other sites (including tumblr) and it's not something I would take as a flag to immediately exit out, but I think some readers would probably think it looks a little amateurish. so, if you didn't know about this feature, you find it here when you go to post a new work:
