Fics like Chess puzzle extravaganza

But does it play chess? While chess is hardly DOOM, there still are some constraints on actually moving things around without JavaScript (though gifbot has some ideas that might render such possible). Don't panic! 😉 Time for some in situ RNG aikido. I can't [yet] offer any definite way to actively play chess on AO3, and so, in lieu of such, I offer you 256 preconfigured static-display chess puzzles, one selected randomly per refresh, with random black or white to move, using only HTML and CSS, no offsite JS. There are also some secret messages from the BBEG upon :hover on desktop Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera, and TOR [in a WIN 11 environment], or upon :touch on iPhone Safari (Android Chrome... is iffy, because Android⁠ ⁠: it has both worked and failed for me, so no guarantees). Lemme know how it is on Mac / 'nix! Part CSS extravaganza demo, and part How To for leveraging RNG for stunning results.
