Back at it again with another year’s worth of favorite fics! Except not quite because the limit is still 50. But still!

Just like last year, I’m going off my AO3 bookmarks and what’s in my fic tag. That doesn’t mean the fics not on this list aren't my favorites, but I had to sift though almost 450 bookmarks to begin with so obviously some of them couldn't make the cut, you know? As a side note, I also tried to limit this list to a max of 2 fics per author and to fics that weren't on previous years’ lists, because variety is the spice of life! 😁

This list ended up being 44% Minecraft YouTuber fic (e.g. Hermitcraft, Empires SMP); 16% Super Mario; 10% Ace Attorney; 4% MCU, Legend of Zelda, Danny Phantom, Batman, and Danny Phantom x DCU each; and the last 10% comprises other assorted fandoms. For the fics that didn’t have proper summaries nor titles, I filled them in myself to keep the list looking uniform.

So, with all that being said, here's my list!

Also — special shout out to the Super Mario fic whimsey by cosmic_boba on AO3, which was a super cute Kamek & Baby Bowser fic that I would have loved to link to for you but when I went to reread the fic a few weeks after it first posted it had been deleted 😭😭😭 One of the most devastating things to ever happen to me, tbh. Anyway, if anyone’s able to track it down post-mortem then I would owe you my life. Otherwise, uh…consider it the honorary 51st fic on this list, haha.
