Hurrah!! Oh, I'm so very pleased that you were excited to see this chapter so soon. \o/ I was very motivated to push on, and I know that a few people are downloading and experiencing this story for the first time ever through audio, so the motivation not to leave them hanging is pretty strong! Sorry about taking a few days to respond; it's been busy in Emiliana-land. <3

1.) Thank you so very much. <3 I started recording Chapter Four Part One, and basically immediately realized how dialogue-heavy it was. It was a challenge, but a very rewarding one, and I'm so happy you felt the emotions were captured well. Kurt's nonchalonce especially, I think, because I really enjoyed being able to show just how much he can't process any of it right now.

2.) Gah!!!!! I'm blushing bright red, I'm serious, oh my god, thank you. None of that's weird at all! You've listened to four hours of me speaking into your ear, darling, it makes sense you would notice how I speak. :3 But seriously, THANK YOU! Lilting emphasis on vowels, lovely tone, oh my god, you're spoiling me rotten. I tend to read fic that I've either written or has really captured me in some way, which I think helps my voice sound decent while I do so. Thank you so, so much. I'm still squeeing over your kind words. <3

3.) Oh, thank you forever about the song choice. For the most part, I spend an ABSURD amount of time picking which song I want in front of which section, and I'm really over the moon that people are listening and enjoying and actually care. But for this chapter? This song was the only one that I spent absolutely no time on at all, because I already knew. I knew that if there could only be one song to describe Ch4Pt1, it had to be "Remains". No other options. But ohmygosh, YAY, thank you!

4.) Oh my god all that dialogue Thank you very much! I try my hardest to keep my voices at least recognizable and distinguishable from one another, and I'm so happy that comes through! <3 ("pounding in like a jackhammer" = perfect description of Karofsky, IMO)

I seriously cannot convey how much it means to me to have you giving so much lovely, lovely feedback about my reading specifically. Thank you a million, beloved, because it makes me so very motivated to pick up my mic and keep going! Listening to stories is so magical for me, and I'm so happy that it's a lovely experience for you too. <3 Thank you forever and ever for being awesome!

You are very welcome, and don't you dare worry about not responding right away - being busy is part of life, dear. =)
Oh my goodness, I can't even imagine experiencing the story for the first time like this....*shudder* There are braver souls than I out there, that's for sure. I've read it twice and have now heard each installment twice, and it still makes me cry like a baby, it's such a haunting narrative.

I am glad you are doing this, and that you enjoy feedback, because I love to give it. You completely deserve it! <3<3<3
