It's chilly and rainy and as James is on nights, which means him getting home at 6:30 we'd been out and done all the shopping etc by 10. So he's sleeping and it's nicely quiet down here, just perfect for writing. So of course I meme instead. And one that I did not so long ago too. Procrastination, it's something I excel at.

The AO3 meme where you list your top ten stories in terms of hit count.


When Day is Night Alone
Ryan/Spencer, Mikey/Pete, Gerard/Bob. The shelter fic, where Pete and Mikey run Clan House, and Brendon, Spencer and Ryan are running away.

And the Embers Never Fade
MCR gsf. Killjoys based gsf where Bob finds Kobra Kid injured in the desert, nurses him back to health, and as a result changes his own life forever.

It Might Be Instamatic Flu
MCR gen where Bob is de-aged. A co-write with mahoni

Mr. Bob
Bob/Mikey, where Bob is a pre-school teacher.

Standing on the Grave of Dreams
Mikey/Pete, Ryan/Spencer ( hey, I have a theme it seems ) The sex slaves in cages story set in a travelling sex fair.

Like a Bunk and Cramped Sleeping
Frank/Gerard, background Pete/Mikey , where they're gross and F/G don't know they're actually married.

Grey Crimson Skies
Bob/Gerard, Frank/Mikey, the third part of tints verse.

Walking By His Wild Lone
Bob/Gerard, where Bob owns a petshop.

Tints of Rainbow Hue
Frank/Mikey. The first part of tints verse.

Richard of York... (let's start anew)
Frank/Mikey. The second part of tints verse.

No surprises really. WDINA remains on top by a huge margin, and probably will be forever. Years from now it'll still be hanging onto the top spot. It seems people like Brendon in peril and Mikey and Pete providing a safe home.

Mr Bob has gained a lot more hits though, which is surprising. Same as Walking By His Wild Lone. It's pretty short and was done as a pinch hit. I guess it's the kittens, they're always a draw. Either that or the Bob fans read a lot, which considering Embers has a Bob pov could be the case. Actually, he's a big part of Tints too, and obviously Instamatic Flu, case closed, people.

But now I really am going to write, because there's fic waiting for me to read it. Fic that I know will be awesome.

Comments

[sperrywink]

LJ is acting up and I am avoiding work a smidge, so I am posting here too.

I will say I am glad Richard of York made the list. That story is love.

[turps]

Hi you!

Yeah, I was just trying to reply to your comment and hoping that you didn't get it multiple times.

Boys with flowers in their hair ♥

I'm avoiding writing. I'm such a slacker.

[sperrywink]

Nope I just got it once, but I fear I sent multiple responses to old stories I was just feedback-ing.

I want to be a slacker too! I had a long commute last night (as you know since you did MWD before I got home) and I spent the whole ride dreaming about winning the lottery. Sigh.

[turps]

Ah well, better many responses than none I guess.

If you win the mega lottery you'll need to throw in some money for that fannish island that people always talk about. Just make sure it's got net connection *g*

[sperrywink]

Totally gonna buy a fannish island. With net connection, free chocolate and coke, and pretty boy servers without shirts. *g*

Well, the without shirts would probably embarrass me, so maybe one server with a shirt for me. *g*

[turps]

Just so you know I totally read that as without skirts at first *g*

You are the most adorable. Maybe a tight shirt or a really loose one to show flashes of skin.

[sperrywink]

Ahahaha, hula skirts would look awesome. *g8

maaaaybe a tight shirt, but not too tight. That is also nerve wracking.

[turlough]

I read this as "net connection blah blah servers without shirts" and couldn't for the life of me figure out how that would work since I was completely convinced you were still talking about computers :-)

[turlough]

It suprises me a little that It Might Be Instamatic Flu gets such a high hit count. Okey, it's a cute story but it's still gen and in my experience gen stories never seem to get the same hype as pairing fic.

It's totally the kittens. Kittens rulez!

Well, did you write anything??!

[turps]

Totally unrelated. Have you heard who's supposedly guest playing with MCR tonight? Brain May. Ray will be going nuts :D

[turps]

I suspect it's mostly that people who like Mahoni's writing as well as people who like mine read, so they combine for a high count.

It has to be the kittens. Otherwise I have no idea why that one gets so many hits.

I did! Not as much as I should have but the night is young, and I have until the live stream starts.

[turlough]

I'm sure you mean Brian May, right? ;-P Ray will totally go nuts!

[turlough]

It's Leeds tonight, isn't it? When does the live stream start?

[turps]

Yep. Iplayer starts from 7, I'm hoping that they do show it live on there as BBC doesn't have it on until half past, and I need to see in real time.

[turps]

Ahahahah, yeah. I'm always so careful with that in fic too. Obviously comments not so much.

I'm imagining them rocking out together and enjoying the thought very much.

[sperrywink]

Ahahaha, I like my computer servers to be sexy!

[turps]

MIKEY JUST TWEETED!

\O/

[sperrywink]

*keysmash*

He found his password, the dear!

And, wow, that is an amazing line-up.

I'd be excited too.

[turps]

The lineup is amazing. I'm very impressed.

Apparently the sound checked with We Will Rock You, I need Mikey to do some serious strutting for that.

Twitter was amazing after his tweet. It was like, he tweeted, and the next dozen tweets in the time line were variations of MIKEY! *g*

[glitteryv]

It seems people like Brendon in peril and Mikey and Pete providing a safe home.

I think that's 'cause fic!Brendon seems to always be able to bounce back. At least from what I've seen in fics. :)

[turps]

I think that's 'cause fic!Brendon seems to always be able to bounce back.

Yeah, he's pretty resilient. Which is good considering what he goes through in fic *g*

[concinnity]

Awwww. I hadn't read "Like a Bunk and Cramped Sleeping," and smiled all the way through it. So gross! So endearing!

[turps]

Like a Bunk and Cramped Sleeping was the start of my gross boys run for this year *g*

I'm very glad you liked it. Thank you!

[sperrywink]

I'm surprised Tints is so low on the scale! But, yes, I guess you can't beat runaways and kittens. *g*

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Out of all of those stories the petshop one is the most surprising to me. I'd have never have pegged it as being so popular.

Though I doubt anything is going to knock WDINA off the top spot, even if Embers is giving it a good try.

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Same kind of weather here. There was this huge storm last night around 4.00AM; the wind actually woke me up. And I'm a heavy sleeper so I can assure you it was blowing hard!

It seems people like Brendon in peril and Mikey and Pete providing a safe home.

Who would have thought, eh? lol Admittedly, I kind of see the appeal. Kinda *cough*

Not surprised to see the Tints 'verse in that Top 10 list ♥ Though I was a bit surprised at first because I thought they'd rank a bit higher. Still, Top 10, dude!

[dr-jasley.livejournal.com]

WHO KNEW ANYONE WOULD LIKE BRENDON IN PERIL.....I KNOW RIGHT? *snickers*

because of all your fic(and it's allllll super shiny and hard to pick from. It's the first one I think of when I think about your writing.


ALSO YAY WRITING.. GO GO GO RA RA RA RA(you'd think by now I'd invest in a cheerleader icon considering I like to wave glittery pom poms at everyone)

[turps33.livejournal.com]

APPARENTLY BRENDON IN PERIL IS A BIG DRAW!

It is the one that sticks in people's minds it seems.

I was writing, then all the MCR Reading news started to trickle in and I'm now far too distracted.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

You know I love autumn, so I don't mind the cooler weather and drizzle, but I could do without strong winds and bucketing down rain. Ah well, I've been out of it.

Ahahahaha. I hope you do see the appeal.

I'm surprised at some of the stories that are above tints hit wise. But I guess sometimes it's just easier to read something much lighter.

[saba1789.livejournal.com]

Terri, I could actually do this meme (lol, if I ever posted to my LJ anymore) because I have actualfax 10+ ~stories up on my AO3 account. That kinda blows my mind.

Also, I should totes (re-)read all of yours but apparently I'm now reading South Park stories over Bandom, WHAT EVEN?! :DDD:

[turps33.livejournal.com]

You should! It could be your quarterly LJ post *g*

South Park, I didn't see that one coming.

[musicboxgirl.livejournal.com]

Can't wait to be able to read more fic. I miss sharing in the fun!

[coreopsis.livejournal.com]

Either that or the Bob fans read a lot
We have to reread a lot--especially the good stuff ♥-- since we don't have much to read in the first place. :)

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Hi you!

Well, you have other things to occupy you I'm sure ♥

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Well, he'll always be a part of my stories.

Though sadly my bbb is set before he joined the band so it's a no-Bob zone :(

♥

[manuanya.livejournal.com]

I love "Like a Bunk and Cramped Sleeping" :D

[saba1789.livejournal.com]

Hm, sounds like an idea! We'll see :) .

And yeah, neither did I! But it got recced on my flist and I was curious and out of TSN stories so why not, right? It was a really good story too! :D #ohfandom

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[musicboxgirl.livejournal.com]

The little one is pretty time consuming.
