To participate, go to your AO3 works page, expand the relevant fields, and analyze your data.

What’re your first and second most common work ratings?
General Audiences: 160, Explicit: 158. I'm astonished that I have that much general-audience stuff, but also I do love things that are facially fine but subtextually not.

What's your most common archive warning?
No Archive Warnings Apply: 245. I was expecting Choose Not To Warn, which is 189. In DCU, I resent using the Underage tag for naked Robins unless that is the point for a long list of reasons, not least of which is that no power in the 'verse can tell me how old any of them are in 99.9% of canon, so those stories end up CNTW instead of Underage.

Do you consider yourself an adventurous writer?
Yep.

How many fics have you written in each pairing category?
M/M: 215
F/M: 112
Gen: 90
Multi: 85
F/F 37
Other: 17

What are your top 4 fandoms by numbers?
DCU (Comics), Life on Mars/Ashes to Ashes, Slings & Arrows, due South. There are a bunch of sub-tags in DCU and Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes are tagged separately for navigational purposes; this is how it goes in my head. For the sake of argument, I have 306 stories in my Story: DCU tag on my DW, 76 for Life on Mars/Ashes to Ashes, 57 for Slings & Arrows, and 22 for due South and Doctor Who--but my dreamwidth tags involve limericks and drabbles that I haven't posted to AO3.

Are you still active in any of them, and do you tend to migrate a lot?
I have learned to never say never, but DCU broke my heart and Life on Mars fans made it really hard to be fannish about Ashes to Ashes. I don't so much migrate as have one primary fandom that changes over time plus all sorts of side journeys.

What are your top 4 relationship tags?
Bruce Wayne/Dick Grayson, Gene Hunt/Sam Tyler, Dick Grayson/Tim Drake, Dick Grayson/Roy Harper.

Does this match how you feel about the characters, or are you puzzled?
I can't believe Dick/Roy is in my top 4, but I guess it's because I've written several things that were Bruce/Dick and also Dick/Roy. If they were listed by word count, a lot of other pairings or groups would be in there.

What are your top 2 most used additional tags, and your bottom 2?
Drabble: 63
Crossover: 27
Identity Porn is only at 22. You coin a phrase and then wander off into fandoms that don't do it so well, and pfft. However, it and Polyamory at 16 are the top two interesting additional tags.

Mentor/Protégé: 10
Polyamory Negotiations: 9
These are the bottom two that show up, not the bottom 2 I've ever written.

What would happen if you combined all 4 of these into a fic?
Identity Porn, Polyamory + Negotiations, and Mentor/Protégé, with a crossover at drabble length? 100 words of Tim Drake (comics) and Tim Drake (DC Animated) discussing their love lives.

How many WIPs do you have currently running on AO3? Any you don’t plan on finishing?
My only AO3 WIP is marked forever incomplete and I don't intend to start any others. I don't like the sense of obligation. I did complete a series that posted in 2018 and 2019 for Lupercalia, and so far as I can tell almost no one cared, so that was less than inspiring.
