Leave the Signs and the Sirens by Out_there

[podlizzie]

Made for the podficbigbang. My longest podfic to date. Yay!
I've teamed up with joking who has recorded her own music for the beginning and end of the fic, so I advise you take the music-containing links for a treat! Thank you Joking! (I have also provided some links without music only because I know some people are fussy that way.) Thanks to dreaming_athena for the beta listen through. :D



Title: Leave the Signs and the Sirens
Author: out_there
Reader: podlizzie
Artist (Music): joking
Fandom: Sherlock (BBC)
Pairing: John/Sherlock
Summary: After John's released and back home at Baker St, Sherlock still feels it. Down the centre of his chest there's an ache like a healing wound. A physical awareness of a body he usually ignores as much as he can. It's psychosomatic, nothing more interesting than that. (Set directly after S1, and written without knowledge of S2.)
Rating: PG
Length: 02:34:54

Another great performance!, the intro music/sound was awesome.

I gotta say that I totally love your consistency, the sound, the reading, the performance has been top notch. A probably random note, but I like your editing, everything sounds really smooth as if it only took you one reading. (I hope I'm making sense).

Another thing is that I cannot express how gratfeful I am for the clearness and/or cleaness of your reading, it makes the experience so much fun and enjoyable.

So in short, thank you for sharing another awesome reading, gonna be stalking you from time to time in hopes of more pods .

Keep being awesome!

Thank you so much! It's lovely to have some feedback and I'm so glad you're enjoying the pods. I've just got myself a bingo card, so hopefully I'll be recording more pods soon. Thanks again! :D

Hey, I'm glad you enjoyed the intro music. I looked for music that would fit both the theme of the fic and jive melodically with the music of the show itself. Podlizzie's a great reader to work with.

I loved this fic, so I thank you very kindly for performing it. :) *does a happy dance*

Thank you! I hope it lives up to expectation. :D

Thanks for posting this. I've just recently started listening to podfic and I'm totally enjoying it. I love this story, so I'm looking forward to listening to it.

[podlizzie.livejournal.com]

Great, I hope you enjoy it! :D

OMG, I listened to it, and you did an amazing job. I was very impressed. It's really hard to find podfic where the reader's tonal quality and reading ability don't distract from fic itself. You did what a good reader should do, add to the layers of the story. Well done, thank you.

Oh wow! I was worried with such a long fic some bits might drag, so I'm very happy to hear that! Thanks for the feedback and for listening. *is chuffed* :D

I already read the story but with the podfic you made my not very good week a whole lot better. Thank you :-)

I took the mp3 version with music and I think it's very well done. Thank you very much and don't stop podfic-ing^^

Thank you for taking the time to comment. I'm so glad you enjoyed it! :D

I really enjoyed this! It was a great story but your reading really added to it. The character voices came across really well - definitely differentiated enough - as did all the emotions. Thank you for this!

Thank you so much! I'm very glad you enjoyed it. (Sorry for the late reply, I swore I replied earlier.)

Thank you for listening! I'm very glad you enjoyed it! :D

I loved this podfic of yours, you did an excellent job with it. I just wanted to let you know!

[podlizzie]

Thank you so much! It was fun to read and it's nice to know people are enjoying listening to it. :D

I loved your podfic! It was my first dip into the Sherlock fandom. The story is wonderful and both Sherlock and John are so very in character, which must be extremely hard with Sherlock... Anyway I loved listening to you reading it. I think you managed to express the depth of the story and the characters very well.
Now off to look through your other podfics! ;)

Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I appreciate you letting me know. :D

I loved the performance, this has some nuance to the story, and you conveyed that well. I did get the non-music version, thank you for providing the choice. Pretty cover also!

Thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed it! :D
