What’s your first and second most common work ratings?

General Audiences (144) followed by Teen (44). And then 4 Mature, at least some of which are mostly there for gore haha. I am no good at sexiness.

How many fics works have you written in each relationship category? Is this more accidental, or do you have preferences?

Gen (83), m/f (63), f/f (51), m/m (18), Multi (16), Other (5)

Definite preference for works about women, including amongst the gen. I used to have hardly any m/m but got annoyed by all the anti-slash homophobia in het fandom so started making a point of adding it to my stories where it fit. It's usually secondary/part of a poly trio with a woman etc because I don't like writing stories that are just about men, 13 of those 18 works are also tagged m/f.

What are your top four fandoms by numbers? Are you still active in any of them, and do you tend to migrate a lot?

Dragon Age Origins (30), plus quite a few for the other games in the series: Still active in Dragon Age fandom as a whole, though with less emphasis on the earlier games. It's an open canon made up of self contained games which creates a nice bump of excitement every few years.

Mass Effect (24): Another Bioware game, very similar experience to Dragon Age except I'm not quite as big a fan and it's been longer since the last game. Means the new one is coming up soon though, which is exciting!

Homestuck (15): I am still active to some extent but much less than I used to be. Canon just finished so things are winding down even more than they already had. I drew a ridiculous amount of art for this, but most didn't make it to the Ao3.

Avatar The Last Airbender (9): I am not really in this fandom any more, though I still check things out from time to time and have a lot of fondness for the show.

I am not very migratory when it comes to my main fandoms. Dragon Age was the first fandom I really fell into properly and as you see it still has my heart 8 years later. But I am always moderately multifannish, and lots of secondary loves come and go and sometimes eclipse Dragon Age etc for a while.

What are your top four character tags? Does this match how you feel about the characters, or are you puzzled?

Leliana, Dragon Age: 15

Isabela, Dragon Age: 8

Female Hawke, Dragon Age: 7

Female Brosca, Dragon Age: 7

Oh look, 4 canonically bi female characters from Dragon Age, I am shocked ;) If you take out the semi-OCs, the next two are Morrigan and Zevran, also from Dragon Age, one female and the other canonically bi. There is literally noone on the visible list not from a Bioware game lol.

What are your top two most used additional tags, and your bottom two? What would happen if you combined all of these into a fic?

Fanart (81), Fanfiction (77), then Humour (54)

There used to be more fanfic than fanart, since I default to just posting fanart to tumblr/deviantart, but recently a lot more Ao3 based exchanges have included fanart as an option.

How do I see the least popular? The least popular I can see on the works bar are "Happy ending" and "comic". Combining all of those would be a happy funny fic with art and comic bits, I guess? I already have series that do that :)

How many WIPs do you have currently running on AO3? Any you don’t plan on finishing?

Not counting exchange works I'm currently working on, which I certainly hope to have finished by the time anyone else can see them, my only WIP is Mistress of Pemberley, a Pride and Prejudice AU where I totally ran out of steam for tying up the loose ends once I got Darcy and Elizabeth together. I like the idea of finishing it one day but don't know that I ever will, and have added a note to that effect.
