This work is not completely betaread. If you spot any mistake, feel free to tell me!

Dear Trojie, when I found your Formula One AU with a threesome, it was like it was just meant to be remixed by me! I'm a huge F1 fan and that pairing is one of my favourites!
I would have wanted to write something longer, more detailled but I just came out of a bad writer's block phase :-(
I hope you'll still enjoy it! :-)
Summary: After his disappointing third place in Monaco, Arthur is set to get his first Formula One win... And with the support of his boyfriends, he might be.

Title: The Girl Left Behind (the I’ll Hold You Close [And Never Let You Go] remix)
Creator: ???
Work Type: fic
Work URL: https://archiveofourown.org/works/31626434
Remixee Name: oncefutureemrys
Link to Work Remixed: https://archiveofourown.org/works/31222901
Pairings: Balinor/Hunith, Merlin & Hunith
Length: 5,482 words
Rating: Teen and Up
Warnings: No AO3 warnings apply. Minor character death, mentioned.
Notes: OnceFutureEmrys, once I received my remix assignment, I was spoiled for choice- so many amazing works to remix! But "I’ll Hold You Close [And Never Let You Go]" drew me right in. There was angst, in spades, which I loved, but Merlin also got to tell Hunith about Balinor, break down in front of his mother, and finally get that hug he really deserved, all of which hit tons of buttons for me. And all those subtle details spread out through the story-all of Hunith's subtle emotions, and the nods towards things that happened as Merlin was growing up-had me itching to imagine a back-story to it all.
It's my first time participating in a remix fest of any sort, and I truly hope that I haven't taken too many liberties with the original! Here's to the hope that I've managed to do OnceFutureEmrys' wonderful work justice, in the end. :)
Summary: It is not the first time Hunith has had to send a loved one away. Death, choice, banishment; parent, husband, son. She has seen it all, tasted all the bitterness life had to offer. Or so she thought.
It is never easy, coming to terms with death. But, for Merlin, there is nothing she would not do.

Or: that fic where Merlin finally tells his mother about Balinor.

Pairings: Merlin/Arthur
Length: 2,300
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Mention of main character death in context of reincarnation
Notes: I was thrilled to get you as my remixee, Diana_Prallon! You have so many great stories to discover and choose from, but Faded really spoke to me. I felt so desperately sorry for the old, faded, forgetful, frightened Merlin that I just had to write this story and try to make things better for him.

Thanks to P for the beta and to the mods for all their hard work!
Summary: Merlin is so old his memory is failing him. He keeps returning to the hill with the tower but doesn't always remember why he's there or even who he is. Around him the world is misty and grey, and people drift by like ghosts – until one morning...

This gift is for you, with heartfelt thanks for all the time and effort you have put into modding fests for us to enjoy, and above all for gifting us with the genius of your gorgeous stories. I hope this damn pandemic starts treating you better soon. Love and hugs x

With huge thanks as always to my betas and cheerleaders T, L and C, for their encouragement. <3 <3 <3
Summary: It was bad enough that Merlin had to keep both his magic and his almighty crush on the prince a secret, while simultaneously having to occupy a space next to the room where Arthur bathed, slept and changed. But having to hide a baby dragon as well? Intolerable.

Notes:Littlehuntress, your works are so amazing. It was definitely hard to choose which one to remix, but once I read ‘Come and Gone with the Tide’, no matter whatever else I read, I kept coming back to that. So. Here is it’s remix. I hope you like it and I really really hope you are not disappointed.
Oh wow, I don’t even know how this fic became so long. I know I didn’t finish in time for the deadline; mental and physical health getting in the way, words refusing to form, etc. Mods, I cannot thank you enough for your patience. I know I must have tested the limits of it. Thank you and thank you for hosting this fest yet another year!
I may have taken some liberties with selkie mythology. I mean no offence to anyone or any culture and their beliefs.

Summary: Merlin and Arthur are both searching for something; along the way, they find each other, but is it only to lose them?

Title: Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust (Prequel to “The Wait”)
Creator: pelydryn77
Work Type: (fic, art) Fic
Work URL: https://archiveofourown.org/works/14707844
Remixee Name: verdantmoth
Link to Work Remixed: https://archiveofourown.org/works/14289411
Pairings: pre-Merlin/Arthur
Length: 3499
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Recreational drug use.
Notes: My dear Moth, I requested you as my remixee because I was in awe of your style with all its poetic beauty. I wanted to emulate it (though I couldn't quite manage). My first plan was to remix something dark, but as I got to know you, I suspected you might appreciate something happier instead. You wrote “The Wait,” with Merlin having visions in the Nevada desert, and Arthur was so real in them that it made my heart have warm, gushy FEELINGS. When reading that story, I wondered how it was that Merlin came to be running around naked in the desert in the first place. I'd heard of Burning Man, also in Nevada, and started doing research. What I learned blew me away. (I recommend searching Google Images for “Burning Man” followed by words such as temple, art car, mutant vehicle, theme camp, the man, costumes, burns, dust, etc. The photos are unbelievable.) I became so engrossed I felt like I'd actually attended the event. (Need to know how to get your RV septic tank serviced in Black Rock City? I'm your girl.) Hopefully the feeling of being a part of that crazy world comes through in the story. Keep writing and developing your style, Moth. It's gorgeous!

Summary: Every year Merlin crashes Burning Man, the famous bacchanalia in the Nevada desert, eager to let go of his past, of his endless searching, of his profound sadness. It has always been his week to forget… until this year. (A prequel to VerdantMoth’s story “The Wait.”)

Thanks to my wonderful art and word betas who gave up their precious time to help me. I could not do this without their skill and expertise.
