How or when does one use this tag?
How do I use the tag? -happy and lighthearted moments, romantic dates, etc. -is there a scene that is intended to make readers smile? -related tags: e.g. fluff and angst, domestic fluff, fluff and smut Photo also contains a screenshot of AO3's filtering system. The screenshot shows even more fluff tags, for example "romantic fluff" and "domestic fluff"

What is fluff?
Photo has an online dictionary definition of fluff which states that it's entertainment that is not serious or valuable. But that's not what fluff actually is. Fluff is a) a scene/story that makes you feel warm inside, b) lighthearted, comforting, or happy and c) used as the opposite to angst

Cute poster. There's a post-it note with a question "Do you hate me?" and two answer boxes with options yes and no. The box for "yes" has been chosen, but a heart has been drawn in it! There are lockers in the background and a quote "Is it really hate?".

Instagram-like poster. Black-and-white photo of Taehyung with a cap and a backpack, looking back at the camera. The fic title is inside a box that looks like a feature in Instagram with which you can @ people that are in the photo. In other words, in the poster Taehyung is identified as "where the heart is".
