Yesterday was reveal day at
remixthedrabble, so I can now fess up to the remixes I wrote. I'm not going to repost them, but I do have them all tracked so feel free to comment there and I will see your comments!

The Good Life (The Consequences Remix) [Fraser/Kowalski, 100 words, Rated PG] for
malnpudlFrom a 9000+ word story to a drabble, hee! This was a POV-shift and a time-focus shift; clearly, the whole point of Mal's story was to get them into bed :-) so I just looked at the aftermath of teh sexin'.
Ode to a Sumptuous Supper (The Doggerel Half-Wolferel Remix)[Diefenbaker, Fraser/Kowalski, 100 words, Rated G] for
kernezeldaI seem to have a tendency to write sonnets for this fest. \o/ I admit that the "doggerel" pun was the first thing that occurred to me. I am quite proud that I managed to tinker it into an exact 100 words. No real change in focus other than making it rhyme and scan!
Horatio Hornblower
Myth Reading (The It's All Greek to Me Remix) [Hornblower/Kennedy, 100 words, Rated PG] for
jestanaThis was actually the first of these I wrote. Mostly a condensation rather than a rewrite, although I added the double entendre (which seemed the obvious way of taking it!), wrote it as first time rather than established, only alluded to the Ganymede/Zeus bit (but I'm proud of that pun) and gave it another punny title. Clearly, drabbles bring out the punster in me.
Hard Core Logo
Honesty (The Such a Lonely Word Remix) [Joe/Billy, 100 words, Rated PG-13] for
exeterlindenThis was a pinch-hit. I apologize for the Billy Joel reference in the title; I did a little googling and it turns out that "Honesty" is actually the title of a Billy Tallent song as well (!) but I couldn't find any reasonable bit to quote from it. Another drabble that's more of a condensation than anything else, but I twisted it a bit at the end by placing it time-wise in a different place than the original had been intended (I think).

master list for bunches of drabbles in bunches of fandoms!
Okay, now I need to update my website with these links, as well as the links to the drabbles written for my stories, and then I need to buckle down on the
remixredux09 story which is currently (goes off to count words) 344 words. I kind of want to flail and grouse about this story but of course I can't because of anonymity. I will say that it is in a fandom I have written before, but about characters and themes I don't usually write about, although (of course) since it is my story, it is getting a large dollop of Isisness. Which may or may not be recognizable.
