Been on my to-do list since I saw it and thought it looked fun a couple months ago *coughs* snagged from [personal profile] vialethe.

1 - Most Hits
Excluding minific collections (C&C, for example, has nearing 800 minifics/'chapters') for fairness, it's A Father's Perspective (ATLA; Zuko/Sokka), as it has been for years and as it probably will be for years to come if not ever; which I never expected but? So it is?

2 - Second Most Kudos
Excluding minific collections, that would be Warmth (ATLA; Zuko/Sokka) as my top three all are and also continues to surprise me.

3 - Third Most Comments
Again excluding minific collections, it is . . . Lone Cub (Naruto; SakuOro & bb!Kakashi); I am really fond of this one, though it was unexpectedly rough to write - while the featured whump is very different (Tick Paralysis; based off canine symptoms rather than human), it is a bit similar to a speed-run of my autoimmune disease (and from bb!Kakashi's outside POV).

4 - Fourth Most Bookmarks
Excluding minific collections, this is actually Lone Cub again! (Almost a third of them are private bookmarks.)

5 - Fifth Most Words
Excluding minific collections . . . this is also Lone Cub. (14,935 words, if you wondered.)

6 - Fic With Second Fewest Words (That's Not a Drabble)
. . .well if I include 3SFs (posted solo) that's Flowers,
On Reflection
(Alice in Wonderland) - if I don't . . . Hidden (SK8; Adam/Tadashi), which I just posted a couple weeks ago! Off a random bit of inspiration, not a challenge or anything.

7 - Seventh Most Common Relationship
Kei/Sho, with 50 works (and Kei & Sho is at place #2 with 83 works).

8 - Eighth Drabble Posted
On AO3 . . . I think I only have drabbles that were ported over from other places years before (and backdated); in general . . . requires some sketchy reviewing. (It looks like probably Barred (HP; Severus/Harry) which is no longer on the internet anywhere. Posted in November 2009, as were a number of others for that ship and another.)

9 - Ninth Most Common Character
Senju Tobirama (with 94 works) who is half of one of my top OTPs (and is a major player in the era I write most frequently in the fandom that will probably top my list on AO3 forever at this point).

10 - Tenth Mature and/or Explicit Fic
Blooded (Moon Child; Kei & Sho) which is Mature for blood and trauma.

11 - Eleventh Most Recent Completed Fic
In Family (Naruto; SakuOro, MinaKushi, Kakashi) which was posted only a couple weeks ago on May 5th.

Twelfth Most Recent Story in Your Sixth Most Common Tag
Ah, now I have a maths word problem! Sixth most common tag is Angst (with 151; if I select it and see all the subtags rolled into that) (it would be Family if I did the easy route and the sidebar); twelfth most recent story with that tag is (excluding minific collections) Secret Unbelieved (Oresama; Miyavi/Shiini/Fujiko), which is a fandom which hasn't even been canonised by AO3 yet, and this was the first work in it.

Favorite Title That Isn't from a Poem or Song or Shakespeare or The West Wing
. . .not sure I have any titles chosen from most of those actually. (Song title/line perhaps, if only due to The Cape of Storms and Kagen no Tsuki which is of course centred on the song.) Out of a long list of titles I can't even remember most of them to think 'favourite' . . . but I'm quite fond of Like That (Moon Child; Kei/Sho) partly because . . . I use the phrase for those two (ship or not) so frequently; they are just Like That.

Which is a fun note to end on, as well!

Kalira does 100ships!

Some folks in the [community profile] getyourwordsout Discord were talking about multishipping and how to decide on/think of ships for challenges like. . .

First I'd ever heard of [community profile] 100ships! And I'm such a multishipper - and a fandom-hopper - and I love a good open prompt event; it sounded immediately fun and . . . a challenge but a very doable one for me. And maybe I'll use it as an excuse to finally write for some ships I've been wanting to give a try!

So here's my table, and I have something started for one prompt at the moment (which ship to start with chosen by the extremely scientific "ship featured in the fic that someone first commented on on AO3 after I decided to do this" method).

#01 – Adamant #02 – Snow #03 – Lion #04 – Spark #05 – Amber

#11 – Moonlight #12 – Sunlight #13 – Blue #14 – Navy #15 – Tea

Watch this space!

. . .and feel free to suggest ships to me for it, because I've got a lot to go!

Written for [community profile] getyourwordsout Yahtzee, my eighth roll, which I'm scoring as Three of a Kind; the prompt: nurturing

Title: Sire's Hands
Featuring: Renaud/Julian
Rating: T
Wordcount: 725 words

Julian may be a fully mature vampire - Sire in his own right to two Childer he adores - but even he wants, needs his Sire to coddle him sometimes. Just for a little while.


Fluffy, mild hurt/comfort, blood-sharing, fade-to-black.

Series/world primer.

Sire's Hands )

This is both the longest piece I've written for this verse (by far; unsurprising as most of it has been for 3SFs) and only the second to focus on Julian himself so much; I have written one 3SF that did similarly, and it was also Julian needing his Sire, though with rather more distress.

This is not a masterlist - all the works, which currently are all small, are under the series tag - but a bit of background for the world of Renaud and his beloved family. I may expand on it later, but I wanted to get a start put together.

Renaud and his family are, of course, vampires. They live in a 'traditional' Court (common in their world, though not all vampires are part of one), location as yet unspecified. Renaud is the Master of it, a position he handles well but with little fuss.


Principal characters:

Renaud
Series namer, of course - all I've written in this world centres on Renaud or his family.
His Sire has appeared occasionally, thus far without a name, and was . . . suboptimal.
Renaud's family consists of one Childe of his own, Julian, and two Grand-Childer, Sylvester and Jacques, all of whom live with him.
Renaud is the oldest of their Court by far (the next oldest member is a few centuries younger, currently). Renaud remembers songs and history and perhaps even languages that no one else does, perhaps forgotten entirely by time. Occasionally they haunt him, but he's generally a happy person, looking to the present more than the past.

Renaud is laid-back and unflappable - he's too old to get worked up about nonsense, and too old and strong to let anyone else's working up bother him. He dotes on his Childe and if anything almost more on his Grand-Childer, who adore him in turn. Though he takes his position as Master seriously, he finds the politics of the Court (and the council) tiresome, and feels there's no point to being Master if he can't act as he pleases (which he always does).

the rest of Renaud's family )

~

Sylvester and Jacques call one another brothers - but not like that. ;) The entire family are somewhat traditionally incestuous; while it's not required of Childer to please their Sire (or elder generations) in any sense (and Renaud's Sire likely didn't bed him or reject him) it's neither particularly uncommon or common in their world. The youngsters especially love playing with their Grand-Sire.

It's uncommon for any of them to sleep alone - Renaud almost never, and Sylvester and Jacques usually either share with one another, or go together to their Grand-Sire's bed, or one to their Sire's and one to their Grand-Sire's, etc. Julian may be the one who sleeps alone the most, but only because he chooses to do so.
