General things of note:
* Ben Wiley of Starman (TV) likes showing up in crossovers. He appears in both "Deziras Penti" as a main character and "Free In The Heart" as a Resistance member. (I must like him period, because he shows up in quite a few Starman fics.)
* That five times crossover is in fandoms I write a lot in anyway.
* Because they draw from two or more different fandoms, there are understandably a lot of crossovers on this list.
* Two of them are in Esperanto! Which is amusing, considering that means the Esperanto-language fics have higher hit counts than at least two english-language fics.
