Baseball Series - Finished!

[silvershadowkit]

Okay, sorry for the delay, but I finished the series! I was hoping my archive site would hose these permanently so I didn't have to worry about giving you guys temporary links, but I'll worry about that later. For now, have some links!

A rather long comment, but the gist of it is that you're fucking amazing

[smile_awkwardly]

So I actually created a live journal account for the sole purpose of leaving you a comment, because you, my dear, are /brilliant/! Seriously, your readings for the baseball series are fantastic! Your tone is perfect for Jim, you can really feel his insecurity and his awe at Spock's affections. Spock is wonderful and calm (when he isn't exhibiting his not-so-contained rage at Gary Mitchell) and Bones's voice is perfect! And your Chekov is quite possibly the cutest thing I've ever heard!

The only thing is, I tried to download the last two parts, but the links have expired! I so want hear your Gary Mitchell getting dragged off to the brig for touching Chekov's ass even though he is only sewenteen. Your Jim freaking out because he thinks bonds are only for Vulcans and then /Spock/ freaking out because he thinks he's losing Jim only to have them finally form a Vulcan bond together. Oh, and of course your Bones teasing the hell out of Jim for being held in Spock's lap. And Sarek calling in after they "elope" and playing along with the whole Vulcan baseball thing and... yeah. So in short, you're awesome! I love the way you read this series and I really hope to be able to hear the rest of it soon!

OMG, you could not know how happy I was to receive your comment. I smiled and awed like you would not believe. I'm so glad to know that you appreciate my recordings, and I'm sorry the links didn't work for me. Unfortunately my main archive site hasn't added the last two segments, but lucky for you, I reloaded them on sendspace. Your new link is here

If you have any issues, let me know and I'll be happy to help in any way I can. Please let me know if these last segments meet your expectations.

I love you! Seriously, you are amazing! These last two installments were /perfect/! You read Jim exploring and fixing the bonds beautifully and I felt heartbroken at your Spock begging to know what he'd done wrong to drive Kirk away. And your Chekov was, as usual, insanely adorable! The tone and the emotion that you manage to convey in your readings truly brings the story to life. You have such a fantastic voice for the characters; I really hope you'll consider making more Spock/Kirk podfics in the future!

I will admit that I had some challenges with these recordings, and I'm glad you're so pleased with my results. I think I practiced Chekov at least a dozen times to make sure I got the accent in and was understandable. Spock's begging was also difficult, as I had to maintain his near monotone while investing his emotional turmoil.

I do plan to make more podfics in the future, although I'm not sure when. I have blanket permission to record kyliselle's fics, and I'm thinking of doing 'How High the Moon', as it's one of my favorites by her. I'll probably release it in bulk rather than as chapters, and maybe as a mp4 rather than an mp3. Can you think of anything else you desperately needed recorded? Honestly, I only started so I would have my fanfic while I was doing chores!

You definitely nailed Spock's begging. His desperation was clear, but you didn't give the voice any unnecessary, out of character inflections. I'm so glad you're thinking of doing more podfics! I love kyliselle's 'How High the Moon'! Really, I love all her stories, especially the 'Oasis Series' and 'The Present' and 'To the Victor' and... well, yes. All of them. She's just wonderful! So if you ever do another recording of something she's written, I'll be ecstatic! However, another story you might be interested in recording is 'The Quickest Way' by Crystalblood? It's very cute and has a ton of characters to work with. It's one of my favorites! If you haven't read it, I think you'll really like it!
