Most Hits on AO3

So, the ten fics of mine on AO3 with the most hits? Seven of them are <user name="yuletide" site="livejournal.com"> fics: Though I Walk Through the Shadow (T:TSCC, John/Savannah), If on a Yuletide morn a slasher (Calvino litfic), Beleza and the B.E.A.S.T.  (fairy tales), The Children's Crusade  (T:TSCC, Sarah & Savannah), The Orphans (Arthurian legend, Arthur/Morgan), Glories Stream  (Dar Williams), and Dancing Lessons (Arcadia, Thomasina/Septimus). Yuletide really gets you eyeballs on your fics.

Perhaps surprisingly, two of the remaining three are also in Yuletide-elligible fandoms: The iPhone of Queen Susan (Narnia, Petrer/Susan) at #4 and Fatherhood (Parent Trap, gen) at #8. I explain the iPhone fic by pointing out it's a kinky fic (spanking) in a fandom that most people have basic knowledge of, but I'm not quite sure how to explan the Parent Trap fic.

#10 is Quartet for Two Voices  (BtVS, Giles/Kennedy). I was even more heavy on the freeform tags than usual with that fic, so I'm thinking people found it while searching for lesbian characters of color and such.
