jedibuttercupIt's been more than 100 works ago since I last did this meme, too. Maybe it'll get some conversation going? :)
I currently have 803 works archived at AO3. Pick a number from 1 (the most recent) to 803 (the first thing I posted there), and I'll tell you three things I currently like about it.
Since those posts range from 100 word fics to 100,000 word fics, I can't promise how voluble or interesting those answers will be, but it should be fun regardless. :)

Date: 2017-04-27 09:51 pm (UTC)That's the fourth one I wrote in the "Ancient Slayers" B:tVS/Firefly series, but chronologically the first, and really the one that tied together and solidified it as a series, even though it's B:tVS-only, set right in the aftermath of the series finale. So let's see. Three things I currently like about it?
1.
I wrote this piece intending to both explain how Buffy and Faith end up functionally immortal, and to how Buffy ended up so broken in the future, without either thing being the actual plot of the story, and I think I pulled that off pretty well?
2.
Family complexities - I have a thing for close sibling relationships, blood or otherwise, I guess? But also for not letting people get away with bullshit they haven't apologized for or even recognized they did wrong; I'm still steamed about the Scoobies throwing Buffy out of her house, when I think of it. So: Buffy and Dawn rebonding as sisters; and the root of them pulling away from the Scoobies. Which are both part of the setup for #1, and satisfying in their own right (for this particular story).
3.
Kind of a side note but: this series, this story specifically, is actually where I finally started liking Dawn. And still do to this day. Go figure. =)
