A fic meme yoinked from ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
svgurl! I barely write enough fic anymore to do any memes but I have had my AO3 since 2011 and I never look at my overall stats so.
rules: give us the links to your fics with the most hits, most kudos, most comments, most bookmarks, most words, and least words.
Most Hits & Most Kudos: Sleeping With the Light On (MCU, Pepper/Rhodey/Tony)
Tony, Pepper, and Rhodey have a long history of sleeping with each other. Just not necessarily having sex. (That came later.)
Hits: 14,391
Kudos: 2,230
This was posted in September 2012 so it's had a very long time to percolate through the (relatively) small Pepperhony fandom. For reference, my second highest hit count is an MCU Pepper/Steve/Tony fic with 12,334 hits but only 603 kudos. Interestingly, my second highest kudos count is a Star Wars: The Force Awakens Finn/Poe fic with 9,305 hits and 1,167 kudos. Several years newer than the Pepper/Steve/Tony fic but a much more popular ship.
Okay actually this may have been a worthless meme to do because my highest comment thread count (49) is also for 'Sleeping With the Light On' sdfkjshf the Fanfic Georg of my AO3 collection. I bet it has the most bookmarks too. Okay yep, 641 bookmarks. STRIKING THIS FIC FROM THE RECORD NOW as it is an outlier and should not have been counted. Pepperhony fandom is SO desperate for content I'm so sorry.
Most Comments & Most Bookmarks: Something Borrowed (Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens, Finn/Poe)
Dealing with his feelings for Finn would be much easier for Poe to handle if Finn wasn’t so sweet, or didn’t like Poe so much, or didn’t act like their clothes were interchangeable.

Do you remember when the Star Wars sequels were good. Yeah me too. This is the only Star Wars fic I ever wrote I'm pretty sure. Not surprised it has such a drop in numbers compared to the Pepperhony fic though considering it's such a big fandom and more popular ship so there's plenty of fic competition.
Most Words: The Right Man For The Job (Avengers Academy, Steve/Tony)
Tony keeps showing up at parties with a new girl on his arm every time. Steve knows better than to listen to rumors about classmates' love lives. So why can't he stop worrying about these?

I am not a longfic writer! Apparently I've never even breached 10k? Actually that's kind of interesting, I would've imagined I had at least once. I guess not. Anyway, longfic writers out there, I'm super impressed with you!! I just don't have the fortitude for it lmao
Least Words: For Science (MCU/Portal, Tony & GLaDOS)
GLaDOS and Tony Stark can communicate without saying a word.

no_true_pair which is holy shit still active? And literally about to open signups for the next round on August 6th. That's wild. Everyone go check it out!
Wow that was harder than I thought it'd be lmao. A lot of overlap in the popularity of my fic, and it's funny how the the fic that gets big isn't always your favorites. I've got a lot of shorter or newer fics with less popular ships/fandoms that I like a lot better.
But speaking of fanfic, I'm curious--where do you guys post your fic? AO3 is still the most popular place, I assume, but does anyone still post fic here on Dreamwidth? Or backup everything on another site?

I had a similar experience with this meme. Most of the fics weren’t my favorites, just older and from bigger fandoms.
I post everything to Ao3 other than a few shorter fics that I did for events on DW and posted to communities here. I’ve been considering backing up either here or a personal archive but I think I prefer just kind of yeeting it up there and not thinking about it again.

Yeah I should have expected that going in lmaooo of course my most popular fic is one of my oldest and less likely to get covered up by 1 million other fics of the same ship.
I'm basically the same, I usually just post a fic on AO3 and then post a link to it on tumblr to "advertise" then never think of it again lol. But given the impermanence of the internet I've been thinking it could be good to have a backup somewhere. Also I like the idea of having a cute little collection of everything, either on a comm here or a neocities or something.
