Mr. L keeps trying to talk to me, and I keep waving him away. "I am trying to read Remix!"

Anyway, I think y'all should read all four House remixes this year.

Civilization and its Discontents (the Shut My Mouth remix), Mature rating, House/Wilson, is the remix of one of my stories. My first reaction was, "You picked that to remix?" and my second reaction was "Great job!" (Remix of the dialogue-only ficlet “In Which Wilson is, by Some Definitions, a Troglodyte”)

ship turned (Balancing the Equation Remix), Explicit rating, House/Wilson/Amber threesome, has a great Amber voice. Summary: Amber was always the girl who made the rest of the class groan every time she raised her hand.

Standstill (The Wheels on the Bus Remix), Teen and Up rating, follows House after the end of Season Four. Sad but beautiful in its own way. Summary: There are some things even House can't cure.

In Your Shoes (The Inside-Out and Upside Down Changeling Remix), Mature rating, is the aftermath of a very different decision by Amber on the night of the bus crash. (Author warns for non-con; I'd call it dubious consent.) Summary: Amber and House disagree on what constitutes an apology.

PS. Please comment on the fics!

PPS. If you can guess which fix is the remix I wrote, you will win a prize. (Cash value = $0. Offer void where prohibited.) One hint only: It's not in the four that are listed above.

PPPS. Oh, OK, one more hint: There is a one-word clue in the story itself. I didn't intend to put it in there, but while writing, it just came out naturally.

Remix being something of a reflection of fandom at large, it's sad to see that there are only 4 House stories.

I would guess which one you did, except, well. :)

Three out of the four were about a character who hasn't been on the show for two seasons, too.

Not that I will ever complain about well-written stories about Amber. She is awesome, and I am happy to see those fics. It's just interesting.

But then again, there are 15 SGA stories and that's off the air; and 20+ Buffy stories and that's been off the air for even longer. So what do I know?

I don't think Remix is known in the general House fandom outside our little corner. The fandom's changed so much over the past few years--not too many of us around anymore, it seems.

Maybe this means there should be a House fandom-specific Remix to promote the concept. (I say this every year.)

As Dee said, it was interesting that 3 of the 4 House remixes are about Amber, considering how heavy the remixes have skewed towards House/Wilson in the past.

Not really - if it's a slice of fandom-trends-at-time-of-writing, then House is doing pretty well to have four stories. I would've done one myself if I hadn't gotten a mono-fandom author who doesn't write for the show.

I'd give Remix a go myself if I knew I could write my pairing (I am too crap to write anything else). Maybe the increasingly entrenched shipping mentality in House fandom means other people feel similarly.

Just came across your site today. This is my new favorite and you have given me a lot of work to do. I was considering buying into a very legit, and very good directory to get some high PR but I think I’ll hold off on that for now thanks to all of your resources.
