In the original, Don's need for Charlie is palpable, even though he doesn't admit it outright. His sharp loneliness and confusion after Charlie "betrays" him is painful and beautiful.

In my remix, I wanted to show that Don doesn't have his brother figured out quite as well as he thought, right from the beginning, and also to show that Charlie underestimates what he means to Don. I hope I did the story justice.

I'm so grateful to beta penguingal for many things: talking me down off the ceiling when I got assigned to remix WCSW emmademarais (oh. My. Gawd. I have to keep it a secret! Gah!), encouraging me every step of the ( ... )

Ooh, Thank you! That phrase was a muse gift in the first draft.

Lovely work sweetie. The lovers section in paticular is beautifully written. Very nice remix indeed.

And your icon made me do a comedy double take when I scrolled through my f-list, it's almost the same as my default icon and I had a huh? That's not my post moment!!

What? No pulsating techno beat?

haha, yeah, it's the first remix I ever read and I really, really enjoyed your re-envisioning of this!

Ooh, :blushes: Thanks! I'm honored to be the first remixer you've read. emmademarais posted one today, too. It's Supernatural, rather than Numb3rs. :Eyes your icon: It's good, I think you'll like it.

You should totally come play when remixthedrabble has another round
