The Montreal Girl written by some1_around

A Heated Rivalry Podfic read by mistbornhero for 🏒 @iceouthr 🏒

Five times Ilya lied (but not really) to his teammates about Shane, and one time he didn’t have to. Inspired by two Cliff Marlow lines: In the airport, when their game with Montreal gets cancelled and he tells Ilya, “Whoever she is, she’s gonna get over it,” and the scene in the locker room when he says, “Wow, this Montreal girl works you up, brother—you’re straight up blushing, Roz.” Or, the Boston Bears’ perspective of Ilya and Shane’s “secret” relationship over the years

Longest Series Works: “mithridatism” written by swordsmans | 4 hours

I made this series for the Podfic Big Bang, I intended to do two One Piece series, but time got away from me. ANYWAY. I am so proud that I finished this, and I love how it turned out. It was not. I recorded in 1 day and then spent what felt like forever editing, but every time I stopped to listen to a line I had to stop and SCREAM at a friend, because it’s just such a good fic and I like how I read it.

Longest One-Shot Work: klondike written by deniigiq | 1 hour 57 minutes

Longest one-shot is klondike, recorded for Summer Swap, I don’t usually go that long for Summer Swap? But I’ve always been a fan of deniigiq and this fic just TOOK me.

Shortest One-Shot Work: The Wee Hours written by hostilecrayon | 55 seconds

… among the 49 drabbles, I guess one had to take this spot lol Klondike was manipulated into that #1 spot because it was really part 2 of the mithridatism series, “step 2: survive anyway, but since it’s a series that’s 1 story, I decided that it could take up the spot that Longest Chaptered Work used to have. I did not realize that I had no chaptered works posted this year? At all? I know I did some, but I posted them as one work instead of chapters with updates, and I’ve got two ongoing series that also got an update. I did start recording two chaptered fics? But I never got around to editing them, so I guess you can look for them in this next year. ACTUALLY this is a good place to say that I made a brand new series tracking sheet in my spreadsheet. It gives me the XML code to make and update an RSS feed for a series, which I think is neat. I also like that I can look at the whole series together.

I’m not entirely surprised that I did less time than last year, but I find it very fun that it’s the Most individual works that I’ve done. Not surprised, because after finishing Like Fire in Our Bones I put myself on break from doing loooooooong chaptered fics, so I’ve mostly been doing short stuff, or longer stand-alones.

Top 3 Ships:

Shindou Hikaru/Touya Akira

Nanjo Kojiro | Joe/Sakurayashiki Kaoru | Cherry Blossom

Monkey D. Luffy/Roronoa Zoro

As the year was ending I looked at my stats and saw that Matchablossom was winning, which is strange because my Sk8 ship is Renga. SO I saw that Hikaru/Akira were 1 podfic behind and decided to just, make 2 more. I think that if I counted by length rather than count Zolu would win, because they clearly have more podfic together than both Hikago and Sk8 combined.  

Top 5 Fandoms:

One Piece 4:34:41

Marvel 2:26:46

Batman 2:15:43

Sk8 the Infinity 2:09:19

Star Wars 1:35:46

Batman 14

Hikaru no Go 10

Leverage 10

Murderbot 7

Sk8 the Infinity 7

While Top Fandom is a fun stats, I think it’s a lot cooler that I did 72 different fandoms, with 29 new-to-me fandoms. Specifically, I am super proud that I did 31 different fandoms for pod-o-ween, a challenge that I gave myself when I got to 20 planned fics and noticed that they were mostly different fandoms, save for “repeat” different media of Star Wars, or DCU. For a minute, I thought I’d not be able to get it, BUT I did! So proud of myself
