So I've been meaning to put all my back-log of podfic on dreamwidth for ages, to the point that there's way too much for individual posts. But it's time at last, so let's do this: All the podfic I've posted on the AO3 since 2016.

First up: all the collabs I did with all the amazing, wonderful podficcers I'm lucky to know. <3 I've done a lot of them so far and every time it's such a great experience. Covers included if they were made by me because I like having them on my dw as well.

I recorded a whole bunch of podfic with the lovely Rhea314 when I was lucky enough to have her stay with me back in 2015, and all of them got posted in the meantime. It was the first time I recorded something with someone sitting right next to me, which was weird and magical.

on the sidelines wishing for right now (Check Please!, Jack/Bitty) is a cute 5 times story, and every time I look at the cover I made I get annoyed that the text lines don't line up right =.=

Bad Impressions are for Free (HIkaru no Go, Hikaru/Akira) Another 5 times story! They lend themselves very well to collabs. This is a story with multiple outsider POVs on Hikaru, which is a trope I love.

Three Good Reasons (FAKE, Ryo/Dee) Fun fact! There's 8 works in the FAKE podfic tag on the AO3, and all of them are by Rhea, Opalsong, Hananobira or me. We have our niche fandom covered.

Opening the Roads (Naruto, Kakashi/Iruka) A forever favourite OTP, a forever favourite author and a forever favourite collab partner. <3

While Recognizing the Importance of Luck in Certain Situations, Eve Genoard Continues to Disapprove of Gambling (Baccano!, gen) Baccano! is in my top three anime of all time, and I adore Luck and Eve, so I'm super happy that we got to record this.

I ALSO had the unbelievable luck to see Rhea again a year later, when I visited the US, and obviously we recorded some more podfic:

The fic where Yuri Plisetsky is grossed out by adults (Yuri!!! On Ice, Victor/Yuuri) My visit was right at the beginning of everyone (me included) falling in love with YOI, and we recorded this fic as an ITPE treat for Opalsong. A bit to thank Team #AnimeHaus from podficiation as well, along with this next one. <3

Five Kisses (Yuri!!! On Ice, Victor/Yuuri) Another 5 times fic for Jo, who is the best and who makes really great waffles and who I miss. <3

An Interesting Trip (Fullmetal Alchemist, Roy/Ed) is such a cool soulmark fic, I seriously love it. Also recorded for Oplasong!

a loyal fan (Yuri!!! On ICe, Victor/Yuuri) And this one was recorded for Vorvayne! Looking at the cover now I feel like I should have done something else with the text, but I felt very bold and daring making it because it was different from what I made before, so that's cool.

people headin' out for the sun (The Less Than Epic Adventures of TJ And Amal) Zombies! Another nice fandom! Good times.

So that's everything I recorded with Rhea. I LOVE YOU RHEA, YOU'RE THE BEST. Let's record more collabs in the future. <3

But wait! There's more collabs:

Two Monks Invent Fandom with exmanhater, Hananobira and kalakirya. Man, I miss The Toast. Do you guys miss The Toast? What a great website that I spent an unwise amount of work hours on. This was an amazing yuletide story that we decided to record in a group skype call and it was SO MUCH FUN. A lot of multi-voice projects are usually a lot more structured out of necessity or everyone records on their own, but the recording process for this was very relaxed and chill.

Through Other Eyes (Dishonored) with Kess, KD Heart, RsCreighton, SomethingIncorporeal. More Outsider!POV. Kess organized the collaboration of this wonderfully atmospheric story. Dishonored is just really good for fic that carries a constant background level of dread and creepiness, isn't it? Also I got to read a nonbinary character here, which was a very cool first for me!

here on the roof of the world (Yuri!!! On Ice, Victor/Yuuri) with fishpatrol. This was a very spontaneous recording, iirc. I think we were on a voice call while we each recorded our parts individually? The story is by jibrailis, so of course it's amazing and funny and wonderful. I also made an alternative cover for this that was just a bra, badly photoshopped on a block of tofu. It...makes sense in context.

katsuki_fc wrote (Yuri!!! On Ice) is one of Opal's giant multi-voice projects with more people involved than I have energy to write out here. It's amazing, you should listen to it if you haven't already!

Yuri!! On Air (Yuri!!! On Ice) is another project of hers, holy shit, how does she even do it. It's a podficcer AU (!!!) that Opal wrote herself (!!!!!!!!) and I got to read Otabek, which is always excellent.

less than three (Yuri!!! On Ice, Otabek/Yurio) speaking of Otabek, bessyboo asked me to read Otabek's part for this collab with her, and obviously I was super up for it.

Phew. That was a lot of collabs. The podfic community is just. Really great, you guys. <3 Coming up next: solo projects!
