popslash.

But it's not shiny happy popslash either! It's conflicted angsty popslash! Which, you know, fun.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Dude, I still haven't started mine.

I am sooo intimidated by the notion of remixing this person's stuff. Argh! And yet, at the same time, hella curious to see what happens to mine.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Heh. This strikes me as funny because I was reading a boyband AU the other day. A *boyband* au.

Secret message to bitterchick: are you Kristen?

Oh I know. I want to know who got me and what story they picked and what did they do to it. I hope I like it.

ahahahahaha I have two, count 'em TWO, boyband AUs. Only one is posted. I need to finish that one. The other one is a conflicted angsty boyband AU. Which I'm not posting until it's done.

And to answer your question: yes.

Thanks for all the fish.

I'm a little nervous.

a) will the story I write be worse than the original?

b) will my story that gets rewritten be better than the original?

c) will it be worse?

And I don't know if b or c would bother me more. (I think I can say that a didn't happen.

B and C are tricky. I don't know which would be worse. I know that they can't change the pairings so that gives me some relief. But I dunno. I'm kind of nervous about the whole shebang.

As for A, well, since I haven't written it yet, I have no idea. But I think that the idea I came up will compliment the original nicely and that's kind of what I was going for.

Thrive to spite them

Elena---I've read the original story and your remix. Your remix is far better than the original.

I have to say that I'm glad I opted out of this. As much as I'd love to see what someone did with one of my stories, I'm sure I would have ended up with a really fantastic writer and butchered their work.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I have to admit, I didn't actually read this, but does not the summary make you laugh and laugh and laugh:

Buffy, now a retired Slayer, is employed to be Spike’s partner in pairs ice skating competition.  Angelus pursues a relationship with Cordelia Chase, a champion singles skater.
