Which is why if you really like a story, you should save it on your device. Besides then you can read it when not connected to the net.

I do this with all stories I like. When re-reading the story, it's a hassle to load the next chapter file. To avoid this I created an eBook template with Calibre and load the chapter files into a copy of the template, then replace the top of the chapter files – all above the title – with a chapter top template. At the bottom I just delete all lines below the last text paragraph, leaving only the < /body > and < /html >. Now I store the eBook and start re-reading it in Calibre Editor's preview window. When I stumble upon an obvious error I can correct it immediately in the editor's main window, so I don't have to cope with these errors next time I re-read the story.

Or you could download the ePub and import it to Calibre. I have went to the trouble of moving a story consisting of multiple chapters in html to an ePub. A bit tedious but worth it for great stories not available in ePub format
Or even easier, spend the money to support the site and get a premium membership. With a premium membership, you can download full stories as ePubs.
A bit tedious but worth it
It's far less tedious if you create HTML-templates for title page and chapter and a CSS file and put these into an EPUB file as template for any story.
For a given multi-chapter story select all its HTML files and add them to a copy of the template in Calibre's editor. Then:
• copy title and author data into your title page template and delete the original title page file in your EPUB.
• copy the top lines of the HTML chapter template (including the < body > tag) to the clipboard.
• select all HTML-lines of the first chapter above the < h2 chapter title a press the insert key.
• delete the HTML code after the last paragraph of the chapter and above the final < /body >< /html > tags.
• rinse and repeat the last two for all other chapters (the clipboard still holds your template top lines).
As CSS-file I use an old xht.css I copied many years ago from SOL and enhanced since then and added some embellishments.
That's all that's necessary for converting a SOL-Story into an EPUP.
Getting typographical correct apostrophes can be a hassle for leading apostrophes, there's usually a opening single quotation mark (') instead of an apostrophe (').
ETA: the SOL system converted the "curly" quotation marks I used here into straight ones. Grrr! An apostrophe is always an upper 9 regardless of its position in front, within or behind the word.
Examples: '70s instead of '70s; 'em instead of 'em; 'n' instead of 'n'; etc. But that is a general flaw of program routines that convert straight typewriter single quotation marks/apostrophes into the correct typographical version.
Those routines have even more problems with non-English texts: in English "..." is an upper 66 - 99, while in German it's a lower 99 - upper 66. Other foreign languages have still other rules.
