"What Friends Are For (Flow My Tears Remix)"
Summary: Xander takes steps to make sure he remembers what he needs to.
The original story is heartbreaking and a good read. The remix is absolutely horrifying. I am still chilled by it.
"Plate Tectonics (The Truth From Fiction Remix)"
Summary: Lorna talks to Rachel while she waits to see how her world will end.
This is amazing, and a fantastic twist on the original story. The ending of this one was like a gut punch, a line which encompasses exactly how it feels to have something slightly crazy and uncontrollable beneath your skin. (At least, that's my reading into it, for my own, personal reasons, but it was an incredible story which hit me hard. How do you tell fact from fiction? How do you tell which monsters are real? It's amazing.)
"Protective Urges (The Girl, You'll Be A Woman Soon Remix)"
Summary: Mal had always been there to protect his Kaylee, and he always would be.
The end here is particularly effective, again, with a good conversation between characters and a believable, if painful, decision.
