  Oh, note also I'm using the method outlined at http://twinery.org/forum/index.php/topic,1055.msg1727.html#msg1727 to have multiple differently coloured links within a single passage. Ideally, I'd want to have each of these links also flash the background a different colour on hover.

  Since I'm stalled trying to figure something out for this other fellow, figured I'd hop in here and help since I think I figured your deal out. It's sort of a little unintuitive (at least, it was for me), but it makes sense when you remind yourself that machines are kinda dumb and picky.
  
  Try this:

  
.passage:not(:hover)
{ background: [whatever your background color is by default]}

.passage:hover
{ background: [whatever color you want it to flash]}
