URGENT

LAST DAY TO SIGN UP FOR REMIX REDUX X!!!

ALSO I DON'T KNOW HOW THE SCHEDULE WORKS BUT IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU VOTE FOR ABED AND KALINDA AT THE FANDOM STEEL CAGE MATCH with your main LJ account.



Kalinda is currently losing to some dude who is not Kalinda, but it's not too late to turn it around. Abed is in the lead but it's way closer than it should be, considering that he is Abed. THEY NEED YOUR HELP!!!

If I get assigned to you I promise I will not remix one of your non-Arthur/Merlin fics into an Arthur/Merlin fic like people seem to keep thinking is what they should do.

Oh, that happened to me last year. And while I genuinely, honestly believe that remixes aren't for the original author, I did spend an inordinate amount of time staring at the comment box trying to think of something nice to say. I think I ended up with the world's blandest and most generic thank you for remixing me comment ever. I think I was more irked because from what they'd written I got the distinct impression that they'd gone into remix having already decided to write A/M and sort of shoe-horned it in. Just an unfortunate matchup, I guess. I feel better about this year because I'm going in already much more excited about the writing than the receiving.

The thing with Sansa, I think, is that for a long time she was a horrifically bashed character (she's thirteen years old when canon begins and people were already rooting for her to be raped; it's almost enough to make me remember the character bashing in Merlin with nostalgia) so people started defending her and went way too far in the opposite direction.
