GUESS WHAT TIME IT IS, PEOPLE.

It is Page 2 time.

Now we finally start getting into the good stuff. *dances with glee*

Recorded early to ease some bandom pain, here is the fourth installment of Baby-Punchingly Bad. :D


DL LINKS: Baby-Punchingly Bad the Fourth In which bandom upsets are adressed, good fic is read for a change, and I am killed dead by a fic arguably worse than My Immortal.


Badfic read includes: You Never Stand Alone, Hey There(working title), Red Darkness, Twila The Girl Who Waz In Luv With A Vampyre, and My Immortal.

Goodfic writers spotlighted were etherati (drabble here), and bell_z (drabble here).


Comments are very appreciated! Also, I'm looking for bad Panic fic for the next episode, so any links you guys can send my way would be hugely appreciated.

Commissions

After a long, long delay, I have the second part of An Inexplicable Occurrence of Angels, by Stele3. I aplogise for the jarring change in audio quality from the first part...kind of. XD It's actually much better this time around, because I recorded the first part just before I got my new microphone, but it will sound a little jarring in the finished product. Ah, well.

So here is part 2, in which Frank discovers rock and roll, Gerard continues to angst gorgeously, Bob enters the picture, and Frank takes a little too literal direction from soap operas.


DL LINK: An Inexplicable Occurrence of Angels Pt. 2 Text here.

The door behind him hisses in its runner and Gerard can't stop himself. "Why can't you just let it go?" He pinches his eyes shut immediately. Mikey doesn't say anything back but the negative space where he says nothing feels cold against Gerard's back. He never has to say his part of an argument aloud; Gerard knows him well enough to fill in the silence and guess Mikey's unspoken responses. That's the real shitty part about arguing with Mikey. For once, though, Mikey answers out loud: "Why can't you?"

Part 1


As always, podfic commissions are here. The statuses of the projects I am working on are here. Comments are always appreciated!

Going to be a good day for me and podfic, I think. I finally finished editing part two of Inexplicable, so that'll be going up shortly, and I'm going to record a new BPB this afternoon because everyone is sad and seems to need cheering up after this whole panic bidness.

I have a random question, though, yet again.

Can anyone direct me toward some fic with a badass bitchy/villainous character that I can podfic? I love villains, and I love playing villainous characters. The problem is, most fic is just I RUV YOU PLOT IS INCONSEQUENTIAL, so you don't really get villains. I'd love it if someone could point me to one. I've had a craving to do something juicy and wicked recently. Note, it doesn't have to be bandom, I've got a whole fandom list and everything, so if you've got one in one of those other fandoms I am so down.

DON'T PANIC, FLIST.

Haw haw. It's a pun.

I am in the mood to write me some drabbles. Give me a pairing (it can be gen) or just a fandom (my favored pairings and fandoms are listed here) and a prompt from the thousand themes list that I will never finish.

:D

ETA: Going over to a friend's for a whole hour. I may or may not do some more when I get back, but if not tonight, tomorrow. Prompt me! <3333

Alright. This one is the longest of this unholy trilogy. I am officially worn out and exhausted after three days in a row of this madness. It's going to be a few weeks at least before I hop on the failboat again, methinks.


DL LINK: Baby-Punchingly Bad the Third In which fics are continued, fics are started, Ray is a rat, Bob makes Ryan his prison bitch, Sookie Stackhouse is a lesbian for herself, I cry bitterly, and I resolve to wait a few weeks before subjecting myself to this again.


Fics read include frank and mikeys stuff, Commit me already, this ain't a sin, more red darkness, teenage hormones which is supposedly a True Blood fic and True Twilight. It's what you think it is. Yes. A Twilight/True Blood crossover.


As usual, I go into this not intending to hurt anyone's feelings, just intending to mock some fic. Warning--there's a bit of mocking of Twilight in the True Twilight section, if you are sensitive to that sort of thing. Otherwise, thar be swears and incredibly human anguish herein.

Oh, and I do a little plugging at the end. WATCH OUT FOR THE WHORE BOAT.

Don't expect this to happen very often...but I had some free time this afternoon, so here is the second one, a day after the first.


DL LINK: Baby-Punchingly Bad the Second In which I go through pieces of five fics, weep, wail, and have my soul sucked out. I'm so depressed, I think I'll slit my wrist, then listen to good charlotte while I wait for it to heal. I ramble, I moan, I get to points where words literally fail me and 'Wow' is all I have to say.


Fics read this time include my immortal, I Dare You, Next Installment, Marry X-mas, red darkness, and the cross over to end all crossovers or wtf is this shit.

WARNING: I get sarcastic and a bit on the bitchy side, but this is all in fun. I don't mean to hurt feelings here, I don't have a vendetta against you. Ever watched Mystery Science Theatre 3000? That's the idea.

Okay, it's apparently required you say something about this now if you're in bandom, so--

Frank Iero is a dick. I love him for being a dick.

I hate babies in movie theatres. I love babies everywhere else. I am sure that Frank feels similarly, because, frankly? (lol pun ohohoho) Mommy should have left the kids at home or not come.

He made a tasteless joke like you or your friends have made a thousand times before. On a website where you only get 140 characters to state your case. I might not have said the same thing to express my distaste, but I am not a guy, and I am not Frank Iero.

Give the guy a fucking break.

saint_viticus and saint_sorrows said basically what I just said but much more coherently, by the way.

That weirdness aside, I continue to fly high on the fact that people seem to get a kick out of my rambling and me being subjected to large amounts of pain, but you know what? That is a-okay by me.

Partially because of this.

What. The Fuck. I've never been so startled in my life.

I have a page! Like a legitimate person! THIS IS VERY BIZARRE.

I don't know when I will get over this. I have 55 listeners on Lastfm alone!

So weird. So weird.

ETA: SIMILAR ARTISTS INCLUDE EMPIRES.

EMPIRES.

HOW AM I SIMILAR TO EMPIRES. ANYONE?

Interestingly enough, some of the people I am similar to are other podfic readers. Weird.

ETA2: OH SHIT. OH SHIT. I CAN SEE WHO IS LISTENING TO ME RIGHT NOW.

I SEE YOU THERE, MISERY_PASSION.

I am in awe a little bit. This is insane.

Alright. So. Expect alot of silliness and rambling and shouting from me. Hopefully this will amuse you at least a little bit, because it was hella fun to do.


DL LINK: Baby-Punchingly Bad-A Foray Into Badfic In which I read pieces of bad fanfiction, mock them, and try to give them the dramatic spin that they deserve. I do alot of rambling and interjecting to myself, you have been warned.

29.92 MB, 32:41.


Fics read include Red Darkness, Please Fogive Me, and Do You Ever Wake Up And Realize It's All Just A Lie.

WARNING: I get sarcastic and a bit on the bitchy side, but this is all in fun. I don't mean to hurt feelings here, I don't have a vendetta against you. Ever watched Mystery Sceince Theatre 3000? That's the idea.

Sometimes I even startle me with the amount of shit I get done in short periods. I don't think this one counts though. XD I recorded Now, As Before over a month ago, and I only found time to finish editing it yesterday.

Now, As Before by etherati is one of the best Watchmen fics I've read, and the best fic I've read in any fandom that deals in the 'Zombie Apocalypse' trope. When Rorschach shows up at Dan's front door in the middle of the most catastrophic day in american history, he kicks off a story that deals in mystery, intrigue, blood, and a relationship that runs deeper than any friendship could imagine to. It's Dan/Rorschach, but only in the subtlest of ways, and I found it much more satisfying than any explicit fic I've read. You get the feeling that so much has happened between them, despite the fact that many of those things were purely emotional experiences. It's heart-wrenching, and if you haven't read it, take a listen. Hopefully you'll take a listen even if you had. :D

I had a really hard time with this one nailing down Rorschach in particular, and it took me forever to record. This is also the longest single podfic I've done, since I chose to do it all at once and not break it up into parts. I'll probably get a cover together for it later, but I am unfortunately without photoshop at the moment. I want to give my props out to liodain, because it was her linking this story that led me to it in the first place.

Now on to the podfic. As a last note--this had one of my favorite ending lines I've ever had the privilege to read.


DL LINK: Now, As Before (Alternate DL Link Here) Text here.

"I thought you were a goddamned burglar, you know. You usually just kick the lock in." Rorschach sways almost imperceptibly on his feet, trying to tuck the pick and tension wrench back into their case with badly shaking hands. Reaches up to lift the mask up over the bridge of his nose, and his breathing doesn't sound right. "The door wouldn’t have been very useful without a working lock. They can use doorkn-" "Right. I know. I don't actually care."

SO I CROSS-POSTED A LITTLE. ._. UM. YES.

I hope I didn't kill anyone's friend's list. XD I wish the banner wasn't so ghetto, but in a stroke of cruel fate, photoshop is not working on either of the computers in my house right now. I tried not to make it too shitty looking even though I had to use paint.

Other things. Um, I don't know? Go read TAN, like the giant font tells you to. Speep and I are waaaaaaay excited, even if she is sleeping right now since she lives on the other side of the world from me. This morning was great. I got up really early due to falling asleep at like 8 last night, and we just jammed until all the coding and posting and arranging was done. She is my hero.

Today has been really chill. I have spent approximately 75% of it on fandom--editing Now, As Before and posting ads for TAN. I am also drinking rootbeer out of a batman mug. I demand you do not judge me.

All I can say is please please please please please pimp us to friends/family/strangers. I don't usually beg like this, but I've never worked harder on a project, and people need to see Speep's art. Need. To. I don't want people to miss us because BBB is finally coming to a close, so help us get the word out!

THE ADJECTIVE NOUN PAGE 1

EDITED, SHINIED, WITH PICTURES, KICKING OFF THE MADNESS, CLICK IT NOW.

IT'S VICTORIAN. WITH BAND BOYS AND A COFFEE SHOP. AND SPENCER SMITH HAS A PEG LEG. AND GERARD WAY IS A POET. CLICK. IT. NOW.

Tell your mom. Tell your friends. Tell their friends. Tell your mom's friends. Rec us to people, link us to lists, TELL PEOPLE. We have worked so hard on this I cannot even tell you. There is also a master post up in the journal if you'd like more info about the fic and so on BUT FOR NOW FORGET THAT AND JUST GO LOOK AT IT AND READ IT AND TOUCH SPEEP'S ART TENDERLY.

Even though I had to get up at five in the morning, worked in the sun for eleven hours, and my whole body is sore, coming home to an inbox full of YOU ARE HILARIOUS and I AM MAKING THIS MY WALLPAPER made it all okay. Thanks guys. <3

I'd appreciate it if you could all send your love to a friend of mine right now. A young boy who was a friend of her family died yesterday after a long battle with cancer, and she could use some good vibes.

Before I go get chinese for the fam--my fandom to do list.

( And this and that and then )

ETA: I just checked dotcoms_refresh and it was not intimidatingly long today.

...is BBB over?

So as everyone knows, I have a burning passion for the Unholyverse. On top of this, I recently got ahold of some high res 'Priest Gerard' era pictures. Put these two facts together and they equal photomanip.



( Follow me down the rabbit hole to my icon journal to see two versions of the image, and then two more with text added. )

So, a little help real quick. I've been thinking about Bad Days, my Dark Knight AU fic, alot today. So I'm busy outlining it right now. I realized that despite the amount of human drama going on, I need to get a villain into the story for Frank/Batman to go after because his storyline is the emptiest out of the three, and it'll give the story some more structure.

So I want villain recommendations! Anyone who's not already in the story is fair game. Give me casting recommendations as well, if you care to.

The cast right now:

Batman-Frank Iero
The Joker-Gerard Way
Scarecrow-Ryan Ross
Two-face-Brendon Urie
The Commissioner-Bob Bryar
Alfred-Ray Toro
Rachel Dawes-Jamia
'Psychiatrist boy' (eventually a Harley Quinn analogue)-Mikey Way

And who'd we have pinned for Poison Ivy? I don't want her as the villain, just because I remember that it was someone I'm not familiar with, but I want to make sure I have that written down somewhere.

Review numero dos, a bit late, but oh well. Spoilers below the cut, which should go without saying.

( In which there is alot of jklsdjfasd WAT and marveling over Lafayette's freaky resourcefulness )

Alright! So I'll be putting up my review of last night's episode of True Blood in a bit, but right now: Bandom business.

So The Adjective Noun, the victoriana bandom coffeehouse poetry AU project of massive I am working on with speep. We are making progress! I have written pages 1 and 2, which is abou 12,000 together, and Speep has been churning out art like crazy, so the first two pages should be done soon (Pages, for the record, are what we are calling each installment. Each one is like a fic chapter, but with art included.)

Speep is of course doing the art, so if I'm not being clear enough ALL OF THE ART IN THIS POST IS BY SPEEP, SHE'S JUST LETTING ME ARTDUMP IT. When it's finished, it's going to have a sort of illustrated book feel. I've never read Shoebox Project, but I think it'll have a similar feel to that?

In the process of doing art, she's been doing some sketches to get down character design.

You want to see them. I promise.



If that did not convince you, I do not know what will. She is permitting me to artdump them, so come look!

( LOOK UNDER THE CUT FOR THE PATRICK TO THAT PETE, THE AMAZING VICTORIAN CHARACTER DESIGNS, RYAN BEING GRUMPY, AND MIKEY NOT APPROVING OF GERARD'S FASHION CHOICES. )

So anyway, link this to your friends! Tell people about it! We're not going to start releasing these until after BBB, because we don't want to be swept away while people are overwhelmed by all the fics coming out. But advance press us, I am so serious. Link this to dotcom_refresh, tell your mom and your dog. People need to read this and see Speep's amazing art and join in our glorious insanity.

If you want to see it right when it does come out, go friend t_adjectivenoun. We're not accepting members right now, because we're using the community to privately get the first few pages ready, but we will be soon. :D

So whilst I am futzing around the house by myself for an hour or so, I have decided to post a recording meme.

So. Ask me to record anything you like (preferably not too long). By 'record anything you like' I mean ask me a question or five, ask me to give you a shout out, ask me to say something in the accent of your choice, ask me to sing you a song, my opinions on something, whatever. No podfics, just something where I can ramble for a bit. I As long as it's not out of this world insane, I will most likely do it. Make as many as you like--no need to be shy.

recorded so far:

request for yellsurprise In which I don't sing a Cobra Starship song and ramble about bandom.

request for saint_sorrows In which I dork out with some favorite quotes.

request for aeria_cretin In which I butcher Filipino words and sing the only Fall Out Boy song I know.

request for nera_fiore In which bumper stickers are seriously considered and discussed.

request for esien In which my first meaningful concert and my passion for audiobooks and books in general are rambled about for eight minutes. What.

request for speep In which I browbeat my friend.
