Podfic: Unaccepted by xparrot

[jadesfire]

Title: Unaccepted
Author: xparrot
Reader: jadesfire2808
Spoilers: Episode tag to "The Shrine"
Length: 40 mins/15.76MB
Link: Megaupload

Summary: Sometime it's frightening, how easily these people from Earth face down nightmares and conquer them.

Author's Notes: I've really wanted gen team tags to this ep. Um, I almost managed one? It's about as gen as "The Shrine" itself is, really. Eheh...

Reader's Notes: You know when you read a fic and you just think "I have to record this"? Well. Huge thanks to xparrot for the fic and recording blessing :)

ETA: Now with bonus meme:

Take a picture of yourself right now.
don't change your clothes, don't fix your hair - just take a picture.
post that picture with NO editing.
post these instructions with the picture.

Hee, your glasses are adorable! (you look remarkably like a friend of mine from college, actually...)

& thanks again for the podfic, it is truly delightful! (umm, the title is "Unaccepted" - at least it's supposed to be, though I might've gotten it wrong myself. ...now that I think about it, I think I already had a story named that, in another fandom. Stealing my own titles! I may have written too much fic...)

Thank you! I was pleased with the glasses, considering I tried them on using one of those internet photo things (so I only had to pay £50 instead of £150...).

*headdesk* Title corrected, sorry. And glad you enjoyed!

Very pretty! Your hair/haircut suits you, as do your glasses! And yay, now I have a face to go with the fun voice on podfic! \o/

ps. Green eyes?

[jadesfire2808.livejournal.com]

Thank you :) My hair more or less does what it wants - I just hope for the best!

Blue/green, mostly depending on the light...

Lovely hair!

::crosses fingers:: Yay!

Your office looks nice. And that's a good picture for a webcam! You look nice. :)

Hee. It's a bit fluffier now that I've taken it outside, but thanks!

I know! It stopped being able to find our wireless network when J was using it (so I was all set to blame him) but when I tried re-starting it, it did so perfectly! Very strange but. Well. Gift horses and mouths and all of that...

*grin* that's actually part of our living/dining/not the bedroom room. I'll have to give you guys the phototour at some point. Thanks!

Weirdly, same here.

Maybe I just have one of those faces...

Ah, now I see your cut tag. Whoops. :) But yes, I'd love to see a phototour.

I have the worst desire to either tickle Kermie's tummy or give him a wedgie.../icon distraction

*stifles giggles* My new colleagues don't know me well enough to be used to the random laughter yet ;)

I'll see what I can do about a phototour for my coming picspam *rubs hands together* this could be epic...

I keep meaning to look for our camera so I can do this meme...

And you have lovely hair! Very... energetic ;P It suits your personality.

Hee! Hi! ♥ It's so nice to have a face to go with the username!

Also - this is the first of xparrot's fics that I've listened to before reading it, and I have to say that you did a fantastic job! I'm so used to reading her stuff in my own internal voice that I thought it might get jarring to hear it in a different voice the first time through, but - no, actually it was a very pleasant listening experience. You do such a great job with dialog and narration alike, it really is a delight to listen to.

[jadesfire2808.livejournal.com]

*giggle* That's probably the politest way of putting it. Possibly ;)

[jadesfire2808.livejournal.com]

It is nice knowing what people look like!

Thank you so much! I know what you mean about some audiofic jarring - if they don't match the voice in your head then they're *wrong* no matter how good they are. So glad this one worked for you - thanks! :D
