Remix-y Recs
Apr. 24th, 2012 01:00 pmSo, Remix happened. And you know how I was saying that I hadn't been reading much Classic Who fic recently, and that was sad. Well, my remixer chose one of my older fics about the Brigadier and Liz Shaw galavanting around the universe with the Third Doctor, and the result was lovely.
Five Things Alistair Learned While Traveling (Memento Temporis Radio Edit) (Doctor Who; the Brig, Liz Shaw, Three) Charming and wonderful, with the sort of dry wit that works so well with Brig fic.
And speaking of cruising on a wave of Classic Who nostalgia.
Gearbox (The Won't Miss a Piece Remix) (Doctor Who; loads of Classic Who Doctors and Companions, but mostly Seven & Ace) I am a sucker for fics about the Doctor learning from his companions, in this case learning how the box works. Also, there's a room full of angry mechanical ducks aboard the TARDIS, of course there is.
I was delighted to see an ASOIAF remix, and such a lovely one too.
Come the Morning (The Once More for the Ages Remix) (Cat/Ned) Perfect, Perfect Cat voice.
I saw that![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
selenak though I might have written this one. I didn't, but it is however everything I could ever have wanted in a Merlin fic.
Waking Up Stories (A Dancemix with Dragons) (Merlin; Morgana, Aithusa) Morgana & the baby dragon escaping doomed narratives and going off to make something new and different, I mean there's lots of other good stuff in there, the Morgana characterisation is spectacular, but basically that.
Remix Madness happened too. And I did mean to write something for it, really I did. Instead, I did what I always do when faced with a variety of choices, which is curl up into a ball and not do anything. But some lovely person made a ficlet out of one of my Discworld fics, I am very charmed.
Not Exactly Human (Eyeballs Remix) (Discworld) In which Quoth the Raven & the Death of Rats have opinions on Susan's taste in women.
The other fic from the Madness collection that immediately leapt out at me as being very good was this DS9 one.
Alter Egos (the twice the woman she used to be remix) (Deep Space Nine; Ezri Dax) I love fics about Ezri learning to be Dax, and this is a wonderful one. I am kind of in awe of whoever managed to turn this around in a week.
