In stalking your podfics all I know is that you'll read gen and non-explicit, but for all I know that's just what you're not too embarrassed to read in earshot of housemates. And I'd really like to record something you'll like, rather than put up with. I sort of want to find out where your boundaries are, because I think my definition of gore might be more hard-core than yours.
If something is creepy or mindfreaky, but not give nightmares creepy, and not creepier than can be found in some of your fandom source materials, is that alright? Do you listen to NC-17? Slash or het or both? Do you have any OTPs you'd rather not deviate from, or any major ships in these fandoms you just don't get? If something has some level of gore/violence description, but not more than is acceptable in a PG-13 rating, is that alright? And a weird one: can things other than sex be non-consensual, or do you squick when things are out of a character's control?
If even asking these questions make you nervous, please tell me. I'll pull back to something safe and gen. Honestly, I've still got far too many choices even after cutting out the ones which definitely don't suit you.
Hello, Totally Not Annoying Podbang Reader! I have no problem answering your questions, and I want to write up helpful answers, but I probably won't be able to do that until this weekend. Thanks for your patience!
Whatever creepy/mindfreaky level that already exists in the fandoms I chose is just fine. I do read/listen to NC-17 stuff (though I’m still working on getting comfortable with reading some of it aloud :) ). I’ve been getting more of a handle on what my kinks and squicks are; in the last Podbang I’d simply said “no NC-17” to make it easier on the reader. I do have a big squick about bodily fluid-related things, though.
I listen to both slash and het, and some of my favorite major pairings (i.e., that you may have a chance of finding for Podbang) from the fandoms I listed are:
Sherlock (BBC) - Sherlock/John Stargate: Atlantis - John/Teyla, John/Rodney (and John/Cameron Mitchell from SG-1) Doctor Who (10) - Doctor/Martha, Doctor/Donna Merlin - Merlin/Arthur, Gwen/Morgana Star Trek Reboot - Spock/Uhura, Uhura/Gaila
A gore/violence level of PG-13 is fine for me, and non-sex things can non-consensual. Please let me know if you need any additional info!
