*____* You've done it again, AMAZING! (I am totally enamoured with your FF7-graphics version of Kunsel too. XD BRILLIANT.) So fancy. You win the internet.
Thank you for writing brilliant FF7 fic that is so fun to read ♥ The graphics were totally not made by me, but due to google-fu XD I'm glad you liked it :D :D
This is too incredible to not comment on. :D The part where Cloud texts Kunsel after Aerith's death and the very last bit where Cloud texts Kunsel and gets no response back was utterly heartbreaking. (And now we'll never know how Kunsel gets his info...:<)
It's difficult to remember to comment on podfics, so I appreciate it all the more that you came back! And such a nice comment to boot ♥
I'm also heartbroken bb :( I think it's an awesome way to end a great story, but still :( A story that can make you feel upset about the characters though, that's some stellar storytelling!
And I've told you that I love your performance, haven't I? I DOOO, I LOVE IT! *glomp-tackles you* I like the free talk at the end. The beeping for the incoming message sound is fab-- it doesn't get grating at all and I like that it continues through the entire thing.
♥ ♥ Thank you!! What good timing you have, I was just about to reply to your email :)
I do love telecommnications in fic. They are so fun!
The freetalk is my response to the discussion readers had a while back about downplaying their own work (I think it was linked to amplification...) About the role of the reader in feedback, how to get more, how to mark the work as their own... I think something like a freetalk is a fun way to show your personality and talk a bit about the process of that particular project, plus it's a lot easier than typing it out XD
So happy the PHS sound worked for you :) :) I wish I could remember whether or not it did have a sound in the game! It didn't take much effort to drop the sound throughout, not when you edit as you go anyway.
(for some reason, lj marked this as a "suspicious comment". I didn't even know lj could do that!!)

Yes, this! This is exactly why I like listening to the freetalk!
(for some reason, lj marked this as a "suspicious comment". I didn't even know lj could do that!!) They started doing that recently-- there's now a new setting for what to do with possible spam comments-- which I think has something to do with posts with links-- and the default is to screen them (and mark them as suspicious). And if you have 'screen no comments' enabled, this spam setting overrides that. It was really annoying to for me until I figured it out (because on fish-recs I reply to the original post if there are updated links/etc to the recs in the post if I don't have time to update the post proper, so that that way people can see the new links. Which doesn't work so well when the post is screened, now does it! *humphf*)
I absolutely loved your recording. I don't really learn too well through sound, but reading the fic along with your audio track made it really com alive for me, especially with all the phone ringing and the music soundtracks. Hearing Cloud in a completely serious voice say "Let's mosey." was the most hilarious moment for me. I was also impressed at how well you managed to vary your voice throughout the fic.
Thanks so much for posting! This is the first time I've listened to podfic, but I think I may listen to more in the future. Especially when I'm sick with a cold or something and my eyes are too tired to read fic. XD
I completely agree with listening to more podfic, you have my full support! :D
Thank you so much for the awesome feedback! I'm quite curious about you reading along with the track though, is that a 'hmm, her diction could be clearer' thing or just a for funsies thing? (I like doing things for funsies). I don't think I have a great range of voices myself, but I am very happy that it was distinct enough for you! Yay! And, oh cloud, you and your mosey-ing...

Freetalk is so fun to do. After doing it, I feel like readers should get on skype and do a podcast or something...
