PPC Dramatic Reading Night? by
on 2016-10-08 21:56:00 UTC
Reply
Now that we have a Discord channel, who here would be interested in everyone logging into voice chat and doing a dramatic reading together? Possible options being My Immortal, the Eye of Argon, and Thirty Hs. People would pass on reading after they start laughing.
Needless to say, the voice chat would likely be NSFW due to the nature of the possible fics to read.
So if you're interested, just say so! :D -

Ravenous for the chance to perform, I will read whatever sorry pretender to literature you drop in front of me. Very dramatically.
And if the time doesn't work for me, I will bend spacetime, see if I don't.

But maybe we could have it at a different time? As far as I can tell, the last one was in the literal middle of the night for me.

And whatever else may happen, I've agreed to read some of the badfic "Blood Raining Night," possibly with Ix doing the voice of Reicheru, which would be perfect and awesome (no offense, Ix, I do not think you are at all Sueish!). Anyone else wanna read character voices? There's Denmark, a random witch, Inuyasha, Korra, Reicheru's evil dad, her half-sister Yuki... and lots more in later chapters, though there's no way we're doing the whole thing in one go. Let's say... five chapters for sure? Maybe ten, depending on how long it goes? Probably not more than ten.
Here, have a link! (And heed the NSFW warnings on certain chapters if you value what shreds of sanity you may have left.) Feel free to volunteer for anyone I've left out.
Oh, and if anyone wants to study their voice part, here's the fanime. Do not watch this at all if you still have sanity you want to keep, and definitely not in public. You have been warned.

I did the math to figure out when it was in my time zone. I cleared my schedule. I did vocal warm ups. I did everything except actually sign up :P
But yeah, expect me there. It's in 3 hours 40 minutes, right?

It starts about an hour and a half from the time of this post. ^_^
So that's Iximaz as Reicheru, you as Korra, and Scape as, er, everyone else? Unless Des is over his cold and/or other people jump on board when we start. Excellent.
~Neshomeh, all warmed up from choir this morning. -

"Blood Raining Night" is also excellent for this purpose--it's how I started a trend of bad fanfic reading among my friends and my college nerd group. *g*

I wouldn't be able to do it on weekends (for reasons) but otherwise I'd be up for it. Just let me know in advance so I can buy alcohol.
