"You Should See Them In Practise" comes up higher each time. Shippy fic is also now dominating (9/10 total fics and all of the new entries).

All of the top 5, and 8/10 fics were written for other people's prompts. I don't know if that's because it means there's more likely to be a baked in audience or because it means the idea, at least, will be interesting to more people.
