The Blog of Eugenia H. Watson, Heir to the Holy Rings of Betazed

[eugeniawatson]

I tried to picture my Dad without Sherlock and I couldn’t do it. I’d never known my Dad without Sherlock. I’d never been without him, either. I knew I was being dramatic, but I couldn’t help but worry that if he never came back, or if he died, that all of it would be just broken into a million pieces. Mum would be okay, she’d deal with it. Dad and me might not be so okay. I think even I would be okay eventually, but Dad? I don’t think so. I think that if you’re in love with a man like Sherlock, you’re done for. There’s just no moving on from that. Who could possibly compare?

WHAT IS THIS WHAT

[eugeniawatson]

erm erm erm, I haven't been able to reply to this because everything about this has left me absolutely speechless :O Such enthusiastic outpourings are rare, and I'd be a fool not to at least thank you for taking the time to convey them to me, so from the bottom of my heart, thank you so very, very much.

It's unbelievable to even think about someone listening to almost everything I've recorded, because that is a LOT of hours! (Over a hundred now, I believe! And almost a hundred different podfics to boots) I'm so touched ;_; To share first place in your podfic-loving heart with pandarus, just wow ;_;

I like listening to podfics because they make me happy, and what podfics make you happier than silly, humorous, crackfic? That's the reason I like podficcing those types of stories so much - although I should put in the caveat that if I feel like something will be fun to podfic, I usually want to. It just so happens that they tend to by the silly ones :D

I used to be quite thankful that the majority of fanfic is written from the third person - now, I realise the limitations of that voice when it comes to podficcing. You just can't express 'he felt a pang of longing as he looked upon her face' the same as 'I looked at her face and longed for her'. There's so much more to play with in the latter for me! It's hard for me to read 1st person fic, but podficcing it...I think it might be my preferred tense to podfic in now.

I'm so touched that you feel I outdid myself on this podfic. I hope to keep improving though :)

Just wanted to reiterate that you don't have to reply to my gushy feedback, now or in the future. I was feeling a bit embarrassed after posting this, to be honest. So, no answer is totally fine. :D

I couldn't do that! Not when it was so nice of you to take the time to write it!
