footballslash. It's supposed to reflect football slash fics written this year, but I'm a gonna list fics I wrote in any fandom, any year, and you should feel free to do the same.
My favorite story: Ugh. Which of my children do I love the most? I'll list one for each fandom. The X-Files: Silent Night (Dana Scully/Fox Mulder). Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Salvaged (Buffy/Spike). House M.D.: Being There (Greg House & James Wilson). The West Wing: Coming to Consensus (Sam Seaborn/Josh Lyman). Football rpf: Never a Bride (Xavi Hernandez/Iker Casillas).
My best story: Again, one for each fandom. The X-Files: Written on the Body (Dana Scully/Fox Mulder). Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Willpower (Willow Rosenberg & Spike). House M.D.: Regarding House (Greg House/James Wilson). The West Wing: Sufficient Unto the Day (Sam Seaborn and Toby Ziegler, Sam Seaborn/Josh Lyman). Football rpf: Catch a Falling Star (Xavi Hernandez/Fernando Torres, Xavi Hernandez/Iker Casillas).
Story most underappreciated by the universe, in my opinion: "Catch a Falling Star," definitely. I worked so hard on this and loved it so much and treasured every comment I received... but there weren't very many.
Most fun story to write: Maybe Precautionary Measures (House M.D./Bones crossover, gen) because it was really fun to play the characters against each other and also to spend so much time brainstorming with my real life beta.
Hardest story to write: I guess that would have to be "Elastic Collisions" (The X-Files, Dana Scully/Jack Willis), seeing as how I was never able to finish it. Runners-up include "Catch a Falling Star," Snowed (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Faith/Buffy), and Mute Persuasion (The X-Files, Dana Scully/Fox Mulder) all of which got stuck for *months* at some point.
"Holy crap, that's *wrong*, even for you" story: Hahaha, probably Going Quietly (House M.D., Wilson/Cuddy). Although my readers might say Bad Influence (House M.D., Greg House/James Wilson UST, James Wilson/Bonnie, James Wilson/OFC)
Story that shifted my own perceptions of the characters: They almost all do, at least a little bit. I'll say one is the loneliest number (Football rpf, Cristiano Ronaldo/Lionel Messi) since it really helped me to empathize more with CR7, but The Spender Defense (The X-Files, Jeffrey Spender POV) is a close second.
Biggest disappointment: Erm. Maybe Talisman (The West Wing, Sam Seaborn/Josh Lyman unrequited). I liked the idea but never felt fully satisfied with the execution.
Biggest surprise: Uh... probably The Mourinho-Guardiola Collision (Football rpf/The Big Bang Theory crossover, Pep Guardiola/Jose Mourinho). It was a wacky idea I came up with for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
karaokegal's Come As You're Not challenge, and it turned out much better than I could have hoped.
Most unintentionally telling story: Many of my fics are very telling, but it's usually deliberate. I guess Under My Skin (The X-Files, Dana Scully/Ed Jerse), since it took a reader's response to clue me in.
Sexiest story: Het: "Under My Skin." M/M: According to my readers, it's a toss-up between Five Times Greg House Found James Wilson Irresistible (House M.D., Greg House/James Wilson) and Adelantando (Football rpf, David Villa/Lionel Messi). F/F: the Hungry Universe series, which got better with each installment (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Faith/Buffy).
