Thanks Jimm! FFF converting from HTML actually clears things up. I've only use FFF to get updated metadata for fics I downloaded directly from AO3, so my understanding around the output format functionality was very much off.

The issue is with Amazon dropping support for MOBI. Send to Kindle does not like how AO3 formats their EPUBs so when the file arrives on your Kindle, the table of contents are missing. For whatever reason, if I download an AZW3 from AO3's website, and convert it to an EPUB with Calibre, this problem doesn't happen.

For now I'm just continuing to download MOBI from AO3, but eventually Send to Kindle is going to drop support for MOBI entirely and I'm trying to figure out a solution that doesn't require a USB cable before that happens.
