Top 10 vs. Personal Top 10
Thank you for the tags, @you-remind-me-of-the-babe and @facewithoutheart. This is bound to be fun and difficult. How do you choose between your children? Well, I'm going to try.
AO3's Top Ten
Oh, Have You Seen The Fairies Dance
Back To Start
Playing With Fire, Treading Thin Ice
A Fucked-Up Cinderella Story
A Real Doll
A Tale of Two Tails
Careful What You Wish For
The Watford Games
Gates of Ivory and Horn
More Than This
Some of these are high scored because they're older, and some because they were just popular in comparison. There's a lot of overlap between this list and my favorites, but there are some differences.
One thing I notice is that the fics that were 'gift fics' where they were written to a specific prompt, or Carry on Reverse Bang fics, written to art that was made before the fic, didn't make my top ten, probably because it feels like the creativity that built them wasn't wholly mine. I still love those fics, but just not quite as much.
Also, other than Raising Dragons, I didn't include WIPs, though they may become favorites when they are done. I'm especially fond of Saving Simon Snow, my forced marriage fic, which I think is getting close to finished. I'll probably start posting that one by April!
And the experience of writing was a huge factor in my choices below. Getting to collaborate with lovely people, or finding myself as a writer features in all or most of my favorites.
Here is my list of faves:
A Fucked-Up Cinderella Story. Ok, the butt plug joke is my favorite joke of anything I've written, Ok? Not to mention, this is the Erotic Gropefest collaboration where I first met and worked with my dear friend Fristi and learned what a joy it is to collaborate with a brilliant artist.
Back To Start: I've called this fic my baby, and it is. It's the first fic I wrote where I really felt like a competent writer, and you don't forget that feeling. I used a whole lot of my life experience in writing Baz as a baby and child too, so it's especially dear to me.
Careful What You Wish For: This was my second collaboration, and @ivelovedhimthroughworse Apricot is the sweetest, most supportive partner anyone could ask for. And this fic is my favorite type to read: angsty, science-y, plot heavy with loving smut.
The Watford Games: This was the first plot driven fic I ever wrote, and I'm proud of what I accomplished with it. And it's also another type of fic I love to read: AUs that put Simon and Baz in place of well-known characters.
The Blue and The Gray: Written for COTTA, this fic didn't make the AO3 top ten, and I think that's because the American Civil War is probably of lesser interest to non-Americans. But I love it, and I think it was the first fic that made me feel like a writer. You don't forget that.
Raising Dragons: Even though this is unfinished, I've had so much fun writing pregnancy and childhood shenanigans in the SnowBaz universe. Not to mention getting to work with Fristi again!
A Real Doll was from the Monster Under the Bed fest, my first non-COTTA fest. This is the first smut fic I ever wrote solely for the purpose of smut, and I think it turned out pretty decent! (Also was the first fic that got a comment from Aralias, which meant a lot to me).
New Year, New Me: This one again didn't make the AO3 top ten, most likely because of the mpreg tag. But it is the exception to the 'gift fic curse', because again, I got to put so much of myself into it. The song @moodandmist and @cutestkilla wrote for it helps elevate this one for me too!
Double Your Pleasure, Double Your Fun: I'll be honest here. I'll read PWP for the usual reasons, but it's always been one of my least favorite categories. I like plot in my fics. But this idea of Baz and Simon having a foursome with their own clones came to me and wouldn't let me go. And the fact that I got to work with Ashton, @artsyunderstudy? That is absolutely the reason this makes my top ten.
The White Chapel: This one is very new and will likely score higher as I get some distance from it. But as an adaptation of my all time favorite movie, Xanadu, it was a pleasure to write from start to finish (and it's also an exception from the gift fic curse, I'm now realizing--but it wasn't written to a prompt and I think that makes the difference).
Probably everyone has done this, so I tag all the folks mentioned above, plus a few others, just in case. @carryonsimoncarryonbaz, @annabellelux, @krisrix, @nightimedreamersghost, @otherworldsivelivedin, @prettylightsbigcity, and @whatevertheweather, I'd love to know what your top tens are!

Original Summary:
“We’re getting you out of here, okay?” Percy was sure that Draco was conscious, but he seemed too deep in his fear to register Percy's words. His arms trembled in front of his face. He was holding his breath, trying to hear each step that brought Percy and Nico closer. His entire body was tensed as if he was waiting for them to get close enough to kick him in the gut.
OR Draco gets rescued from Bellatrix by demigods who don't know about the wizarding world.
Nico gets kidnapped by the Order of the Phoenix who mistakes him for a powerful Death Eater.
----
My current favorite, active updates and a stellar premise. Nico's character and powers are very well portrayed here, and the Order interactions are very in character and interesting.
Thank you @martianmallow for writing this fic!

"But remember that an "angel" is anything that carries out a mission for God. This includes forces of nature. An angel doesn't have to be an intimidating, fiery being... Photosynthesis? That's an angel. Gravity? An angel. Magnetism? Angel. The Midrash in Bereishis Rabbah (chapter 1) says than an angel only performs one job. That job doesn't have to be destroying Sodom; it could be peristalsis, centripetal force or condensation."
- Rabbi Jack Abramowitz, The God Papers

i maintain that 'cheating' is the wrong word for odysseus' encounters with circe and calypso but why does anyone think i would care if odysseus cheated. do you think i'm into him for the high moral standard set by men who throw babies off walls

Belly: My Top Ten
Belly: My Top Ten
Let’s return to Lyriquediscorde Top Ten with Belly. Belly, and Tanya Donelly, are favorites of mine since the 90’s. I remember hearing the Belly album, Star, at my favorite coffee house at the time – the Winged Heart – which was walking distance from my apartment. I can close my eyes and see myself there, long floral 90’s whimsigothy dress, short hair, my baby daughter asleep in a stroller,…
