Q: Manga with a female main character who is bethrothed to a prince who can't use magic

SuzukiIt's a manga (not manhua/manhwa) where the MC is female. I'm not sure if it's a reincarnation manga but I think it is since I know the MC quickly becomes powerful in using magic since she's young. She also becomes engaged to a prince (not the crown prince) who cannot use magic also while they are...

Q: What is the in-universe justification for material hierarchical perks (such as quarters) in Star Fleet?

user99478The answer to this question indicates that there are hierarchical differences in crew quarters on, for example, the Enterprise. Apparently, Lower Decks is considered canon, and so I seem to understand that the enlisted are not merely given less spacious quarters or forced to share rooms, but that...

Q: Fanfiction-Dying Star by gothamcitysyren

AlyssaI am looking for a link to the fanfiction DyingStar by gothamcitysyren. It is the 2nd part of the From Grace series. It is a crossover between the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the X-Men. It is about Cassandra Barton, Clint's younger sister who is a mutant. It was posted on Archive of Our Own.

@b_jonas Author tags are used for questions about the author not their works.
Quoting the tag information for : For questions about Robert A. Heinlein who was an American science fiction writer. Often called "the dean of science fiction writers", he was one of the most popular, influential, and controversial authors of the genre. Only use for questions about the author, for questions about his works use the specific work tag instead.
Note in particular the last sentence.

Q: Senior citizen ladies solve crimes

They live in a place called "Tawas" I thought I'd saved them in my library but am unable to find them now. I tried googling using the word "Tawas" and still nothing.

Q: Sci fi book, which has a tunnel. Where depending on where you go through wall, go to different planet

ChrisIf I remember rightly, there were also fights going on within the tunnels also. Not sure if same book, but people started off being "born" within virtual reality and had to prove themselves, before being born in to flesh and blood.

@DavidW I see! Thank you
That makes sense for some authors like Rowling or Tolkien, where almost all the questions are tagged with the franchise and often get many other tags too, but it makes less sense for Heinlein, where we have like half a dozen different tags for the novels and apparently no franchise/universe tags yet.
I won't revert these two, but also won't be removing the [robert-a-heinlein] tag from the questions either.
and if there's no franchise tag then should scifi.stackexchange.com/q/26371/4918 be tagged [tag:methuselah's-children] instead? maybe it was tagged with those but those tags were unique and the overzealous vacuum deleted them?
it wouldn't even be unique now, there's a second question scifi.stackexchange.com/q/261776/4918 about Time enough for love
oh great, there is a franchise tag and its usage info specifically says "Questions that are simply about of one of Heinlein’s novels do not qualify: this tag should be used for questions specifically related to the multiverse.". You really want Heinlein questions to be hard to find unless OP is careful enough to mention his name in the question body.
And even then it's hard if you're searching for an answer.
sigh
Should I, say, pre-emptively edit scifi.stackexchange.com/q/17042/4918 and scifi.stackexchange.com/q/115366/4918 so the question mentions Heinlein, just in case someone removes the tag from them?
