Remix!

The bad news about remix is that I have no new awesome author to follow, because Walks Like a Turtleduck, Talks Like a Turtlebuck was written by the fantastic ranalore. But that is the only bad news, and it's not really so bad, is it?

For my normal remix assignment I had seta_suzume and spent a good four days panicking that I might not be able to write FMA. But I dug in anyway, narrowing it down to four stories, then two, than one.

Wildflowers (The Long Way to the Light remix) is a POV switch, which I am not sure I've ever done before for Remix. The original story is from Dr. Marcoh's POV, and I wanted to see what the village would look like from an insider's perspective, and how Scar would've seen his community's restoration.

( More under the cut )

More fic!

I also wrote two bonus remixes:

Sing Me to Sleep (the stubborn bastards remix), Kirk/McCoy, Star Trek Reboot. I again broke my usual rule and pulled a POV switch. When I read the original, I started wondering how Jim had realized Bones was so exhausted, so I had Chapel break the rules and call him in. (Chapel better show up in the new movie.) I loved the feel of the original, the exhausted, end-of-the-line, everything's wrong frustration.

Can't Buy a Thrill (the overcaffinated remix) is possibly the most obvious thing I have ever written ever, something of an expansion of daegaer's original story, with three takes on Nagi and Mamori's weird little relationship. It had all my weaknesses; Mamoru and Nagi being incredible dorks, Coca-Cola, and an excuse to use a Steely Dan reference in my title. ♥

And I also wrote something new for saiyuki_wk_au:

When the World Is Running Down, an alternate universe Saiyuki fic where the Sanzo-ikkou are drag kings. During the apocalypse.

And on Tuesday springkink starts...that reminds me, anyone want to beta Magnum, PI?
