I just kind of incidentally started practicing to be an audiobook reader and I really think I might vibe with this job. I need to get better at accents. My British accent is pretty bad, my australian is decent but gets mixed up with kiwi sometimes. I can switch between northern and southern american like nobody's business. I'd probably goof up a german accent which is silly since I'm german. I do struggle with breathiness due to my asthma but I've already gotten way better over a few attempts. It helps that I'm a fast reader and I'm good at tonal inflection. It was hard to break the habit of talking in a descending tone at first—the thing that makes people compare me (and my brother) to Eeyore. People (mostly guys and one woman) have told me I have a really nice voice for this kind of thing though. I don't really like it because I'm gender dysphoric about it, but I believe in giving the people what they want.

And there we go, first companion quest we officially finished! Neil's performance was just as good as everyone said it was.

The voice acting in this show adds dimensions that only serious meme methods can truly capture.

#skull island #skull island netflix #netflix skull island #irene skull island #cap skull island #i wanted to put annie's face on the butterfly but i did not want to push the color limit more than i was and oh my god #i spent so long masking out cap's BEARD i could not do this again #so anyway i hope the 'is this a teenage girl???' vibes come across right lol #anyway to be clear with the caption the voice acting and animation work together to create pure vibes #like u had to be there #so i hope that's not taken as a dig at the animation at all bc it's with the animation that it works so well #i just dont think a lot of ppl seeing these things will have seen the show and im trying SO hard to propaganda it j;lkalksdjf

something i've been thinking about:

Wally is set up as a sort of "main character" by the whrp. he's said in the site's description of the show to have introduced the main theme/lesson of the day's episode, and then the rest of the neighbors join him on his escapades. but then we have our first glimpses of everyone's actual dynamics and characters through the audios and you look at Wally and its like

first of all, thats an npc. second, nearly everybody else has severe main character syndrome

but its fascinating how Wally is just kind of... There. he doesnt talk much. he doesnt contribute beyond a couple of lines. its more like he joins the others on their shenanigans. he fades into the background. he's off to the side while everyone else holds conversations & leads the moment

Wally, despite being described as Thee character, is borderline background.

& whats even more interesting, within his individual secret audio files and interactions - he's almost chatty. not only that but the way he talks is more confident and faster paced. he's taking initiative. he can be kinda pushy. when talking to the qa/whrp/Us, he acts more like the character his descriptions portray. he acts more like a person instead of a puppet waiting for his next cue

I cant tell if - when around the neighbors - his tepid milk behavior is a purposeful act or if he's masking. and if he's masking, is it deliberate or involuntary? and in regards to both, why is he acting so different? It could be tied to what he's trying to accomplish. if he's trying to "restore" Welcome Home, it would make sense for him to act as he does around the neighbors - he wouldnt want to clue them in that he knows so much more than he's letting on, would he?

but then that begs another train of thought - what if he isn't acting or masking? if there is a time discrepancy between Wally's interactions with the qa/whrp/Us & the more 'official' audios, that could explain the difference in behavior. we could be getting glimpses into "future" (read: current) Wally, who's had much more time to figure himself out since we can safely assume he started out as a blank slate. we could be seeing a more experienced Wally than the one seen with his friends.

of course that line of thinking loses some merit when considering the 14 "bug" audios. or it could lend to it... if we're seeing a more experienced Wally but his friends are only seeing what he allows them to. it's still him, just... a carefully curated version.

in general it could really tie into the themes of identity and change and being other, to me. when you're so different - or you feel so different - that you can't bring yourself to be your most authentic you around your friends. when you feel like you have to hold back and be who you think they expect you to be, or what would be most palatable. most normal. will they accept you as you really are? there's always the fear and terror that the people you consider closest to you won't. or when you're so scared of change that you'll shove down & lock away parts of yourself so that you can keep things as you are. because once they know you've changed, so will they. and really, do you want to even accept that you've changed? what if that's what scares you most of all - that you're different, you've metamorphosized, you can't go back to the way things were because you yourself are no longer the person you were before. there is no reversing this no matter how much you try or pretend

#its just so fascinating #the whrp: wally's The Guy!#wally (with his friends): the most lukewarm dude ever #then he's alone or alone with home and its like Hi My Name Is Wally Darling & Welcome To Jackass *off-tune guitar riff*#bbg has ✨problems✨#and like - im giving all of his stuff a re-listen to make sure im not misremembering or completely talking out of my ass #but his phone call? the way his VA is delivering the lines seems So fuckign different than in the shared audios #his tone is flatter. he sounds more sure of his words and himself. he Sounds like he's in control and knows it.#immediately going from that to a shared audio where he puts more inflection in his voice & doesnt talk much #and when he does talk its slow. meandering. his lines are more befitting of his audience surrogate role #which only makes me feel more like he's acting/masking (again: if that time discrepancy does indeed exist)#which - as someone who kinda compulsively masks around Literally Everyone no matter how much i want to Not - it kinda hits hard!#i suspect that he Is masking instead of acting. he's The Most Autism as we all know so it would more than fit #and that could add an extra layer if it's automatic and he can't turn it off. or if he doesn't want to turn it off #but also acting... a misplaced attempt to protect his friends and world? not feeling like he can share his 'true' self? augh #wally darling you make me unwell. i want to dissect you #wh speculation #welcome home speculation #homebogging #and then listening to his little record audios #he starts out talking like he does in the shared audios and then slowly gains confidence until he's speaking more like he does in the call #just. wally not being talkative in the neighborhood to the point where everyone's like 'yeah wally isnt much of a talker'#vs him chatting away to the qa/whrp/Us #of course it could be because he has to carry the entire conversation on his own #But. but. you can still carry a one sided conversation and be hesitant or awkward or um. missing the word rn but short-sentenced #brief? succinct? concise?#wally's fully trying to make conversation with someone he knows can't reply. which is interesting #so many ways to take that. well. three #maybe he doesnt feel listened to in his day to day life / he feels more comfortable and can relax / hes been alone for a long while #anyway there may be more ways to take this but this is all my tiny poppyseed brain can reach atm

LYDIA MARTIN And I've got a lot to pine about. I've got a lot to live without.

You don’t care about getting hurt. But you know how I’ll feel? I’ll be devastated. And if you die, I will literally go out of my freaking mind. You see, death doesn’t happen to you, Lydia. / Unbelievable…you have no idea what you are, do you? The wailing woman.

#(‘...i know you find me extreme in my grief. i bear it hard.’)#do jennifer’s words ever ever leave her? they never utter ‘wail’ again in the series.#when does the myth she was first told about herself being to feel prophetic? because this reveals a change in register—#or a reconciliation with or reminder she can’t outrun of the knowledge that her skull-shattering (the last chimera) skull-crushing (twtm)#weapon of a voice wields immeasurable power but is born of and devoted to immeasurable sorrow and lamentation.#(‘but i tell you i have no choice. it compels. i act because it compels.’)#and that this very part of her being makes tragedy all that more ineluctable for her. (‘i cannot not grieve.’)#lydia martin #stydia #teen wolf #twedit #teenwolfedit #lydiamartinedit #teen wolf: the movie #teenwolfgifs #fyteenwolf #tslyricsedit #cinematv #dailytvwomen #filmgifs #filmedit #‘so i’ll say words i don’t believe’ the idea of a scene like this dizzies me #it’s always about loving someone so much that you would leave them to protect them isn’t it

I’m screeching and rolling on the floor laughing 😂 oh my god. I’m listening to another tacky Wolverine novella [lifeblood by Hugh Mathews] and the reader goes, “he only knew two German phrases, ‘hände hoch’ —hands up, and don’t shoot, ‘nicht SCHEISEN.’ “

😂😂😂😂 sorry but that’s the wrong ‘ie’. My man said ‘don’t sh*t.’

Podcasters always think that their show has to have more sound effects and voice actors and music and eventually get monetized and promote other shows and I just wish they would go back to the format of some guy reading fucked up shit into the mic for 20-40 minutes and when you google that guy it takes you to the podcast website where you see that his day job is something really random like store mannequin maker or baker at the all night cookie place. Maybe by s2 you can't hear traffic in the background anymore

#what i hate most is when the podcast has characters I can't tell apart by voice #or a bunch of sounds in varying pitches. or the characters voice act so hard to be funny that it sounds like a cartoon #the autism monotone is my best friend tbh #you know i can't process too many sounds at once!! <- girl whose hobby is going on walks and listening to sounds

MASSIVE SPOILER for one of the endings.

it's been a while since i tried looking, but i did hear that something like this happens last year and over time started to think, "was it a fluke?" bc no one posted footage or caps of it then, and i aimed for a completionist run in my first playthrough. turns out it's real! and definitely shines a new light on a character that, for most other types of playthroughs, will not give this much emotion! EDIT: transcript now included, and some stillshots under the cut

[0:28] Marie: Henry, this is the man who kept you from doing the right thing tonight. Kill him. [0:15] Forrest: Henry, you don’t have to do this. If you’ve not killed anyone yet, there’s still time to make the right decision. [0:05] Out of shot: (Gunshots) Henderson Police! Freeze! Marie: No! Henry, get out of there!
