@ Spork': sob

@ Iverum, Tzetze: The problem is that Valentine doesn't really do sarcasticky monologues. Monologues are, like, by nature drawn toward the pensive and etketterar. Maybe the short bit when he takes the fisherman as a hostage and demands the tiger-voiced man's help?

As for D'Urfe, there's this:

You are a strange one. You bear no name of God on you, nor mark of a master; you came here freely and now you are making demands on your own! Believe me, and I am an expert on these things: you are no golem.

I dunno, I thought my Valentine monologue, while not being exactly sarcastic, conveyed a sufficient amount of... irreverence?

The tiger voiced man without growling.

And with growling.

Hmm, I don't believe it but I think my mic's too sensitive.

@ Spork': Well, he's also pondering what he considers the biggest mistake of his life during it. I guess I mean monologues tend to have a pensive air to them?

@ Tzetze: Oh, and the Serpent has a longish bit on page 160, talking about golems.

@ Dorkus: Ha, that's perfect. Doesn't the growling hurt your throat though? Fortunately, the tiger-voiced man doesn't monologue... I think. And yeah, vocaroo sucks. We need to find better audio programs, etketera.

Actually, any of y'all handy with audio editing? Cleaning stuff up, doing splicey things and sound effects and blah?

I've expiremented with growling for a while actually. I've gotten it down to a point where if I do it right I can actually full out sing while growling.

However, if I do it wrong I'll be in a coughing fit rather quickly [lol]

I'm presently teaching myself a bit about audio editing, but you might try Spain or somebody...

There's Audacity, which is free. It also does some audio editing stuff but I don't know how to work any of it yet.

@ Dorkus: Well, you sound pretty tiger-voiced even without the growl too, so don't like... permanently damage your vocal cords for this :'D

@ Tzetze: Ah, right. Don't want to bother people who haven't signed up for it, though, you know?

@ Poni': Hey, I have that. I stumble around in it like a half-asleep child, though.

Dorkus: I like the non-growling version better. Tigers are big cats, after all, and there's always a sense of calm/thoughtfulness/laziness that felines have. The growling-version sounds too harsh.

Right, of course, of course. Well, I have Audacity, along with some more esoteric tools, sooooo I guess I could try doing things.

^^You could always compromise and have a little bit of a growly... like, undertone, but keep it mostly smooth.

^Ooh, me likey.

OK, up to 125. And I have to say, I like this comic, but my god is there so damn much Ho Yay between the narrator/Eira and Valentine. So. Much.

Hmm, I'm not sure if I could pull off a mix of a little bit growly and smooth.

I'm trying it and I feel I veer a little too much to the growl side.

@ Spork: Really? I've always read the narrator as being rather young, so I've always seen it as a Nakama-ish big-brother dynamic. Eira didn't seem much older than the narrator, either.

@ Poni: FAWESOME.

@ Dorkus: What about smooth most of the time, and growly for emphasis?

Nah, it's mostly on Valentine's end for me. It doesn't help how bishie all the characters are.

Here's my reading for Vin! For some reason my cold decided to attack again, though, so my voice is a bit softer than usual.

I'm starting to develop a soft spot for the Lady, though. I hope nobody else tries out for her.

Dialogue between Valentine and Ganymar. Not the cleanest audio, but it was a quick splice. I think I can clean up the static in it if I took some time.

Whereabouts you from, Sharysa? You have a lovely but hard-to-place lilt.

Also Iverum that is a nice little conversation. I think your voices fit very well as those two characters.

I knew it was you and Poni, that's why I said "your voices" plural.
