Ao3 wrapped 2023

Tagged by @smarterinabsentia

Works published: 1, still unfinished, plus some cleanup editing to some older fics.

Wordcount: 43,598 (and counting)

Kudos: 44 (plus lots to older fics, which always makes me smile)

Most popular by kudos: My all time kudos champ is still Eclipse with 814. Yes, I will finish it eventually.

Longest/shortest (irrelevant when there is only one): The Pirate and the Spy at 43k, but by finish it looks to be close to double that. A proper novel it is.

Most Comments: Comments are a dying art form, which makes me appreciate the folks who still do it all the more.

Fics that made me cry: You Don’t Remember Me, But I Can’t Forget You by @segfaultfault is the Sanvers fic of the year. It takes that murderous mindwipe and stands it on its head.

Fics that made me smile: Sometimes Through the Stars by @smarterinabsentia was my big gulp this year. Love this world. Also her What Eats You series and @segfaultfault ‘s Operation Unmask the Masks, which I just finished. Looking forward to catching up with more fic in 24. I’m so behind on my reading!

events: Sanvers Big Bang 4.0 and also a short lived revival of SanversCon. Hoping to get on a more regular schedule in 2024.

Tag yourself if you like! Here’s to a creative 2024.

The Alex we loved was murdered by the show. The cruelty was the point.

I’m so glad that both she and Maggie have lived on in fic. We have some truly brilliant Sanvers writers and we’re still going strong. And Sanvers has inspired some original writing too.

Turns out Alex and Maggie might be one of the show’s most lasting legacies. Take that, AK and JQ.

i don't totally miss supergirl as a show, but I whole-heartedly miss Alex Danvers and the fandom's collective version of her that was far more in-character and interesting than what the show gave us

i was looking through ao3 for new fics to read and i just.... damn i miss her
