Supernatural/J2 Recs

[twasadark.livejournal.com]

 

With few exceptions, the podfic I listen to is all in the Supernatural/J2 fandom, so that is what this post will focus on. Also, I go through bursts of podfic listening and I’m wildly disorganized with saving my favorites to my delicious account, so this is an incomplete list.

Excellent podfics are a mix of a) pleasant voices, read at an appropriate pace with clear diction, b) technical accuracy, including sound quality and editing skills, and c) the quality/personal preference of the story recorded. Which is to say that all of this is pretty subjective to my personal preferences. The stories below are a mix of short and long and gen and slash.

1. Mind-meltingly HOT stories

juice817 is probably the best known reader in the Supernatural fandom, and with good reason. She has a smooth, lovely voice with excellent diction and primo taste when it comes to story choice. I especially like how she seems to read some parts with a smile in her voice. But Then My Homework Was Never Quite Like This by thenyxie [J2, long]

painted_pain  has a non-American accent and exquisite pacing and inflection. Plus her story choice is just wonderful. Nothing Says I Love You Like A Punch In The Face by standing_fic [J2, less than an hour]

2. Stories that made me laugh

meansprite  has the most amazing accent – just a hint of a burr – and beautiful pacing. Her Dean voice is distinctive and her inflection skilled. F*** Me by rockstarpeach  [Sam/Dean, less than an hour]

reena_jenkins  has a pleasant voice and awesome expressiveness – in particular, she's skilled at great line delivery. This Is the Start of a Beautiful Friendship by truelyesoteric [J2, less than an hour]

3. Just plain enjoyable stories

superstitiousme  sounds like she is whispering to you in the dark. She has a slow, sweet style , and doesn’t skimp on the pauses when necessary. A Kept Boy by poisontaster [RPS, 25+ hours of wonderfulness! Amazing!]

cassandra_leeds' voice has a hushed quality of voice and excellent pacing. This story is chillingly wonderful; Bring Me The Disco King by mimblexwimble [Gen, less than an hour]

crinklysolution gives a wonderful unhurried read with great inflection and skilled music mixing: Crush by sonofabiscuit77 [Sam/Dean, long]

applegeuse is an all around wonderful reader. The Bitch by stele3 [Sam/Dean, around an hour]

emerald_embers  has a perky voice with a lovely accent. Life Used to Be So Hard by roque_clasique [Gen, less than an hour]

Author: itsmadeofgold

Summary: I don’t know why he wants me to trust him or why he thinks I should - since I don’t actually know him at all - but it seems like he kind of knows that I do, or that I will. That I’ll do whatever he says. And I can’t really deny it, so I just follow him down the stairs. Kradam high school AU.
