In a burst of synchronicity, both Rhea314 and I wanted to podfic these fabulous Sherlock/His Dark Materials stories, so what we've done is BOTH of us have recorded them, to release into the wild simultaneously. (Hopefully. Notwithstanding the whacky time difference thing of one person being on East Coast North America time, and one being on Thailand time.) I &hearts these stories. SUCH a clever premise, and the way that things unfold is so ineluctable and satisfying, even though it's the last thing I would have thought I'd buy based on TV canon. Genuinely transformative work, this.

So, here are links to my versions:

TITLE: The Asteroidea Trilogy: Asteroidea; Highly Intelligent, Observant, and Destructive When Bored;Feels Like Drowning
AUTHOR: Etothepii
READER: FayJay
FANDOM: Sherlock/His Dark Materials
PAIRING: Sherlock/John, John/Mycroft, (slightly Sherlock/Mycroftish)
RATING: NC17? R? Gets a bit steamy eventually
DURATION: Around two hours
SUMMARY: John can't quite figure out what Sherlock's daemon is. Or, indeed, where it is...

http://audiofic.jinjurly.com/asteroidea-trilogy
http://audiofic.jinjurly.com/asteroidea-trilogy-audiobook

Check out Rhea's post for her versions:

PLUS two bonus composite versions, which are mix'n'match, if you'd like to hear different voices!

http://community.livejournal.com/amplificathon/734065.html

::mops brow::

Grateful thanks to Rhea for doing all the cut'n'pasting involved in making the composites, and to the lovely Cybel for her patience in archiving & making beautiful cover art!

All eight versions of these podfics, both mp3 and podbook, can now be found at the Audiofic Archive here. :-)

Title: Asteriodea
Author:

etothepii
Reader: Rhea314
Fandom: Sherlock/His Dark Materials
Character: Mycroft
Rating: PG-13
Notes: His Dark Materials fusion!fic, kind of dark, with a possibly unnerving twist partway through. Written for the sherlock BBC kink meme. Followed by Highly Intelligent, Observant, and Destructive When Bored and Feels Like Drowning.
Summary: In the pocket of his trousers, next to his phone, Mycroft carries the standard-issue steel capsule meant for protecting arthropod daemons. When people ask about it, he smiles and tells them she's not fond of the light, or of people other than himself. This is a lie.

Author:

etothepii
Reader: Rhea314
Fandom: Sherlock/His Dark Materials
Pairing: John/Sherlock
Rating: PG-13
Notes: Follows Asteroidea. Sequel is Feels Like Drowning. His Dark Materials fusionfic.
Summary: "I wonder what his daemon is," Kaliope says, when they're in bed waiting to fall asleep. Her fur tickles John's bare shoulder, but not enough to make it itch. His arm doesn't ache anymore, thanks to the painkillers. "Do you think she doesn't like us?"

Title: Feels like Drowning
Author:

Fandom: Sherlock/His Dark Materials
Pairing: John/Sherlock, Mycroft/John/Sherlock
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Mycroft must approve of John's new position in Sherlock's life, because the next day he receives a text message from the man that doesn't seem to be addressed to or about Sherlock. His Dark Materials fusionfic. Follows Asteroidea and is a direct sequel to Highly Intelligent, Observant, and Destructive When Bored.

The wonderful FayJay and I were both similarly inspired. So, you have an awesome double-release multiple versions of amazing podfic to behold. FayJay's versions (which are fantastic) can be found here
Composites of both our voices can be found here

Title: Sherlock/His Dark Materials Composite
Author:

etothepii
Reader: Rhea314, FayJay
Fandom: Sherlock/His Dark Materials
Characters: John, Sherlock, Mycroft
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Original order, the omnipotent listener knows what's happening before the characters do and gets to watch the characters figure it out. Kind of dark, with a possibly unnerving twist partway through.
Summary: In the pocket of his trousers, next to his phone, Mycroft carries the standard-issue steel capsule meant for protecting arthropod daemons. John wonders about Sherlock's daemon. John and Mycroft exchange text messages.

Title: Sherlock/His Dark Materials Mystery Composite
Author:

etothepii
Reader: Fayjay, Rhea314
Fandom: Sherlock/His Dark Materials
Characters: John, Sherlock, Mycroft
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Author's suggested Mystery order. Same stories, but different chronology of which is read first, it keeps the listener in the dark/in suspense, to learn right along with the characters. Kind of dark, with a possibly unnerving twist partway through.
Summary: "I wonder what his daemon is," Kaliope says, when they're in bed waiting to fall asleep. Her fur tickles John's bare shoulder, but not enough to make it itch. His arm doesn't ache anymore, thanks to the painkillers. "Do you think she doesn't like us?". Mycroft and John exchange text messages. Mycroft appears to have a steel capsule for arthropods.
Text: Highly Intelligent, Observant, and Destructive When Bored, Feels like Drowning, Asteriodea

These Composites exist because the wonderful FayJay and I were similarly inspired. So there are two versions of each of the stories. These combine those two versions (occasionally interwoven voices in the non-mystery version, and mystery reveal with a different voice in the Mystery version). I think they turned out really well and it's a cool way to join both of our love for these stories into one long recording of happiness. Or something like that!
FayJay's recordings, which are lovely, can be found here!
