I appear to have mis-tagged this in the Audiofic Archive (slip of the finger in a drop down menu) as Gabriel/Dean instead of Gabriel/Sam. Murphy's Law, as the archive is currently not allowing any edits to be made. :-(

Be assured I'll fix the tag as soon as possible.

[kalakirya]

no worries! easy mistake to make when you're being so amazingly wonderfully punctual about archiving!

Thanks!

It just breaks my little OCD heart not to be able to fix my many, many errors as I discover them!

[kalakirya]

I've never really been in SPN fandom, and only even watched the show in recent months, but I wanted to check out more of your audio works and... ended up downloading all your Gabriel/Sam works. Now I have a ship, and it's your single-handed "fault". (Thank you!)

Yours is one of the performances I can jump right into without having checked out the source work, so everything is a happy surprise. While my flatmate adores your Dean voice (really; she gushed about it for ten minutes once, and a month ago she didn't even want to try listening to opdfics at all!), which is all kinds of hot and deep and yes, your Gabriel voice does it most for me. Your uncanny ability to switch range from amused to cruel to serious within a single sentence works so well for him! His "Wait, I DO!" around 50 minutes in when he teases Sam in the shower is priceless.

I also always appreciate the overall softness of your voice, how the highs and drops in your voice build flows and rythms, and make you expertly control the atmosphere you plunge your readers into. In this particular work, your breathing really puts the sentences together and sweeps me along. (I know this isn't something all podfic readers feel comfortable with, so I think it's important you know how much I love to hear you breath in this work and how much life that adds to the work for me.)

Similarly, something else that might not come up often in why we love a particular podfic is that I enjoy how much of your background space I can hear in this work. There's children laugher, sunlight, occasional perhaps-cars? Maybe there's a park. Whatever it is, we can hear it every now and then (it's a long work!) and makes me happy. It feels like summer. I makes me feel like I'm lying in bed under the sun and I could close my eyes and listen to you and stop thinking. <3

Thank you for making this and for sharing it with us.
