Stories I have written in 2005: Okay, okay...this was a really unproductive year for me, other than D2D/SID, for which I can only claim half credit. BUT, since I'm in the process of moving to FOS, and the rereading/reposting process makes you reconsider your work closely, I'm going to fill this out keeping ALL my fanfiction in mind. Digimon:
And So It Was...Before It Began
Constant Changes
The Dance
Deception
Different Tastes
The Girl in the Denim Jacket (and its one-shot songfic sequel, As Long As You Love Me)
Growing Up
Happy Valentine's Day
How I Spent My Summer
I Guess
I Love You More Now
In the Aftermath
Making a Match
Mimi's Decision
Nevertheless
The Right Direction
Stuck
What Do You REALLY Want For Christmas?
You Look So Good In Love

Sonic the Hedgehog:
Everything You Know Is Wrong
Robotic Regeneration

LotR:
Detour to Destiny/Straying Into a Dream (WIP)
Everybody's Free (to Wear Mithril)
Lalaith
O, Caption (parodies of "O, Captain, My Captain", one of which is LotR-themed)

Lost:
What Counts

Shenmue:
Nozomi's Wish

Originals:
Easy Enough For You to Say
Sonnet to Tim

My favorite of my own stories this year: I've long thought that "Constant Changes" was my masterpiece, but I think D2D and its followups are my favorite, really.
My best story this year: To avoid stealing Shelly's credit, "What Counts."
Story most underappreciated by the universe, in my opinion: All of them! Lol, j/k...but it IS hard to pick just one. I think that despite the lovely reviews it got, no one can understand the work that went into "Everything You Know Is Wrong," but as far as being under-reviewed... I was expecting a lot more feedback on "What Counts," since for once my fiction was within the "latest big thing" category, lol.
Most fun story: "Everything You Know Is Wrong" or "Everybody's Free (To Wear Mithril)."
Most sexy story: D2D probably pushes the line most often, lots of kissing. And smiley face boxers. And more swimming scenes than I would have thought possible.
Story with single sexiest moment: "I Love You More Now" has a reference to Takeru "wanting to prove his love right then," but I think "Constant Changes" probably takes the cake here--Ken and Miyako are on their honeymoon bed about to do the deed when our archvillain materializes. (Though there are similar moments coming in D2D. Nothing over PG-13, though.)
Hardest story to write: "The Girl in the Denim Jacket," because I was fairly new to the series (I had not seen much Digimon and a lot of my info was from reading about it rather than seeing it myself), to writing (prior to that I had not written anything of substantial length), and to fanfiction (it was my first true fanfic).
"Holy crap, that's wrong even for you" fic: "Everything You Know Is Wrong." Come on. A quintuple songfic to songs I'd never heard, about a pairing I don't really like. XD Written by request, in case you're shaking your head--songs and plot provided, but it was still a doozy to wrap my head around.
Fic that shifted my own perceptions of the characters: "The Dance" made me not hate Mimi. "Deception" made me realize that Hikari was not all sweetness and light. "Happy Valentine's Day part II" made me see past Jun's Nazgurlish behavior to the cool person underneath.
Favorite major canon character of 2005: Frodo. Like, duh.
Favorite minor canon character of 2005: Admittedly, I did not expect for Haldir to take on such a personality. (Granted, it's a haughty, I'm-an-Elf-and-I-tolerate-you-because-I-was-ordered-to personality, but he's so darn lovable by the time we get done...)
Favorite original character of 2005: A character that has yet to appear in the D2D saga. Here's a hint: the name starts with a T, and it's not "the."
Biggest disappointment: SID getting pulled from FFN! >_< XD Seriously, though--I thought "Everybody's Free (To Wear Mithril)" would catch on more--I thought more people were familiar with the source material. Mayhap I need to post it at a parody site rather than a fanfiction archive.
Biggest surprise: "Everything You Know Is Wrong" is still getting the occasional review! I've gotten at least two since FFN (finally!!) put in the review-response feature. (Mayhap people are struggling to get past the bad Sonic X fiction that's gotta be absolutely flooding FFN now?)
Most telling story: "Different Tastes" speaks volumes as to how I get along with Dad--we just plain do not understand each other, and sometimes we have a day like this story, but unfortunately we generally end up back where we started. "Easy Enough for You to Say" is pretty much my current rant, too.
What's next? What I will write FOR SURE (not counting stuff that's just notes or stray thoughts): Loads more about Shelly and Sarah (here's a hint: SID only goes to 50 chapters, but there are currently 138 chapters total for the saga...you do the math), an Elijah songfic to Maroon 5's "She Will Be Loved," a Charlie/Claire songfic, and a Charlie vignette.
