AO3 Hits Meme

Gacked from igrockspock and alphaflyer:

1. You See, It Was Like This (The Avengers (Marvel Movies), Thor (Movies)) (100 words), Hits 1409
   
   I have no idea why this drabble is so popular, but it was fun to write. Clint, Darcy, + kitten.
   


2. 5 Reasons Natasha Knew Something Was Very Wrong with Clint (and 1 Reason She Knew That Nothing Was Wrong at All) (The Avengers (Marvel Movies)) (2066 words), Hits 1309
   
   I'm actually super happy this showed up here. It was my first major attempt upon Clint/Natasha, written for a comment_fic prompt, and alphaflyer betaed. Admittedly, it was a rough write, and I was less than pleased with how much reader feedback it got, so color me surprised that it gets good hits.
   


3. Tingo (Pascuense) (The Avengers (Marvel Movies), Captain America (Movies)) (1647 words), Hits 1303
   
   There is no top 10, AO3-only based list that this story doesn't hit. I read a funny definition, got bit by the muse, and wrote a story about Natasha stealing all the stuff out of Clint's home by borrowing. I also regret nothing.
   


4. Carnal (X-Men (Movieverse)) (16334 words), Hits 1289
   
   A WIP I really want to and ought to finish. Rogue/Gambit and way more sex-based communication/relating than any of my other fics for them. They seem to prefer fighting and sleeping together to talking.
   


5. The Rogue's Gambit (X-Men (Movieverse)) (1371 words), Hits 1276
   
   The one-shot that Carnal is sequel to. Basically, Rogue tests the Cure on the mutant she picks up. He's less than thrilled to realize she's a virgin.
   


6. Made and Meant (The Avengers (Marvel Movies), Thor (Movies)) (835 words), Hits 1199
   
   A fun little soulmates AU where Darcy's the only one in the Avengers Tower brave enough to tell Clint and Natasha that their UST is bothering everyone else.
   


7. Skin Deep (X-Men (Movieverse), X-Men: First Class (2011)) (1356 words), Hits 1190
   
   This was a story I wrote for me, the closest I came to writing incest before this year, and really it's adopted and he's trying so hard not to be attracted. I'm surprised it has that many hits, but I was proud of it when I finished.
   


8. Son o' de Guild (X-Men (Movieverse), X-Men (2000)) (26691 words), Hits 1189
   
   My runaway favorite on FF.net, another WIP, and basically an X1 as canon only what if Remy turned to Xavier instead of Sinister when his powers blew up on him? It's a monster on FF.net and I'd be downright surprised if it didn't show up high here even though it hasn't picked up nearly the same traction on AO3.
   


9. 'Til Death Do Us Part (The Avengers (Marvel Movies), Captain America 2: the Winter Soldier - Fandom) (2191 words), Hits 1167
   
   My first Clint/Natasha soulbond AU. Written for Trope Bingo and inspired by both Rogue/Danvers and the rules of their shared lifeforce and The Fey saga by Kristine Rusch and another tangled lifeforce bond.
   


10. Taken (The Avengers (Marvel Movies), Captain America (Movies)) (422 words), Hits 1066
    
    Maria helps Natasha pick out something to show she's taken before she's partnered with Steve who might not realize that.

Thanks for this!! I actually found one I'd missed ... :-)

:grins:

Glad to be of assistance! I have three psueds with actual fics on them and a mess of stuff that hasn't finished migrating from FF.net, so honestly I'd be more than hugely surprised if anyone actually kept up with all my stuff.

Indeed! I see you have some 200+ pieces on AO3 alone -- makes me and my paltry five dozen seem positively behind... But now I have you on subscription, so I'll never miss anything new. :-)

More than 200 are commentfic and most of my lengthy fics are unfinished WIPs. :( So don't feel bad at all.

I've gone through a lot of phases with fandom and chaptered fic and learning how to write shorts then expand them.
