Dedose007 has a fetish for psychological damage—in the best way possible. Their hottest fics don’t just feature characters fighting; they feature characters fighting themselves. For example, their 2024 blockbuster "Liquid Nitrogen & Lavender" (Soukoku, BSD) opens with Dazai bleeding out in a shipping container, only for Chuuya to find him. The story is 80% tension, 20% resolution, and readers left over 2,000 comments begging for the final chapter.
If you are new to AO3 or struggling to find the "hot" content you’ve heard about, follow this simple tutorial.
Step 1: Go to Archive of Our Own (AO3) and log in.
Note: Some of dedose007’s hottest (Explicit) works may be locked to registered users only to prevent bot scraping.
Step 2: Use the Search Bar.
Type dedose007 into the "Search within works" field or simply append /users/dedose007/pseuds/dedose007/works to the AO3 URL.
Step 3: Sort by "Kudos" or "Comments."
On the right-hand side of the works page, find the "Sort by" dropdown menu. Select "Kudos" (for all-time popularity) or "Comments" (for current fandom buzz/ongoing hotness). This is the definitive way to surface the "hot" list.
Step 4: Filter by Rating.
If you are specifically looking for hot as in spicy, under the "Filters" sidebar, check the box for "Explicit." Then hit "Sort and Filter."
Pro Tip: Look for fics published in the last 6 months with a high chapter count (4/4 or 12/12). Dedose007 is notorious for finishing their WIPs, and completed "hot" fics generate the most lasting engagement.
We analyzed the top 10 works on dedose007’s AO3 dashboard (sorted by kudos descending). Here are the three common threads that make their "hot" fics irresistible.
Many of the works under the "dedose007 ao3 hot" search results carry the "Dead Dove: Do Not Eat" tag—meaning the content is exactly as dark as advertised. But unlike authors who use darkness for shock value, dedose007 layers in brutal tenderness. A reader on Tumblr put it best: "Dedose007 will make you cry, then make you orgasm, then make you cry again because the orgasm was too beautiful."
No discussion of a trending author would be complete without addressing the backlash. On r/FanFiction and several fandom-specific Discords, a minority of readers argue that the "dedose007 ao3 hot" tag is over-saturated.
Critics claim:
Dedose007 has responded once—in an author’s note on their 2025 fic "Rust & Reverie"—writing: "I write for the people who feel the ache in their ribs. If you don’t like the taste, the kitchen is open to other chefs." This defiant stance has only solidified their "hot" status, turning casual readers into die-hard fans.
If you only have time for three works, make it these. They currently dominate the dedose007 ao3 hot search results.
