47,000 words, 30 stories, 5 fandoms: Prince of Tennis, Lord of the Rings, Haikyuu!!, Slam Dunk, Yuri!! on ICE. Not bad for my return from hiatus. :)

Additional Tags: Drunken Kissing
Series: Part 1 of Night Before
Summary: After last year's GPF banquet, Victor helps Yuuri get back to his hotel room.Like I said, all the sad moments.
Favorite story: If we go by "times I re-read my own story for pleasure" it has to be With Great Power. It's a perfect combo for me: kind of cracky InuKai but with real feelings. The last line still makes my heart flutter.
Best story: Definitely RR245. My beta did tell me it "requires close reading" but that's what I like. (Though I've resolved to avoid this extremely cut-down style for 2017 because it's so time-consuming to write.)
Most underappreciated by the universe: Maybe Gimme Shelter. Not that it was unappreciated at all! But I did think it would go over a bit better than it did.
Most fun to write: Probably With Great Power again. That was one of those stories that springs out fully formed, like Athene from the head of Zeus.
Sexiest story: To me, Glitter. Not so much because it's basically all sex, but the way it starts to reveal them both to each other, just a bit.
Hardest fic to write: That would be RR245 again. This is a style I think of as "negative space", kind of extreme show-don't-tell, and it's really difficult for me. But so worth it.
Biggest disappointment: Haikyuu!! didn't engage me as a writing fandom as much as I'd hoped. I still hope to write more though, especially for next year's SASO.
Biggest surprise: Yuri!! on Ice. Oh my fucking god how did this sports anime turn into a mega-fandom? Let's ride this wave forever! Also, I'd been really longing for a fandom to capture my writing heart with actual grown-up chracters with sexual histories and YOI is perfect for this.

Yes-yes-yes! Your Yuri!! fic perfectly fills my craving for exactly that kind of story.
