For those of you who don’t know what Remix is, please visit the X-Men Remix 2020 page for detailed rules and FAQs. Highlights are also provided below:
What is X-Men Remix?
X-Men Remix is a challenge where you rewrite someone else’s XMFC/DoFP/XMA/Dark Phoenix story or redraw someone else’s XMFC/DoFP/XMA/Dark Phoenix art the way you would have written/drawn it if it were your story/art.
Each assignment is randomly chosen from the pool of signups with writers matched with writers and artists with artists; the person you write/draw for will not be the same person that writes/draws for you!
What can I change when remixing a story?
Just about anything you want! The only things you may not change are the pairings and the basic plot. Otherwise, you can do whatever you like: you can write from a different POV, in a different tense, with different characterization; you can write the story you think happened before or after the events of the story you’re remixing; you can put a twist/spin on the events of the story to give it an entirely different meaning; you can take a shippy story and make it gen/background the pairing and focus on other stuff; you can take the secondary pairing and focus on them instead of the main pairing of the original fic; again, pretty much anything you want!
