HP Rec Fest 2023: Day 3

Today's prompt from @hprecfest: A podfic

Fic: I Wanna Learn a Love Song

author: words by me, narration by @etl-echo-audiobooks

pairing: ron weasley/pansy parkinson

rating: M

Why I rec this: If you haven't had the chance yet to listen to an @etl-echo-audiobooks podfic, then you are in for a treat. The narration is gorgeous, as are the narrator's character voices for both Ron and Pansy. As this is a fic about music, there's a song snippet in the middle and hearing it sung (beautifully!) is so moving. This is a one-shot too, so a great way to dip your toe into the podfic pool. And then, go listen to everything else ETL Echo has recorded: long fics, mini fics, one-shots, dramione, drarry, reylo, and more 😍

Rey is the only one who never calls him Kylo Ren.

She understands why the others have to. They need to separate the man who is slaughtering defenseless villages and the boy who used to play hide-and-seek with her between the X-Wings. Leia can’t fight a war against her own son, but she can fight Kylo Ren. Han is trying to mourn him, and by mourn, Rey means he’s trying to forget that Kylo Ren exists. Luke, before he leaves, before he abandons them, calls him Kylo Ren because that’s the name he was given when he fell to the Dark Side and only when he finds the light again can he become Ben Solo.

To Rey, that’s all bullshit. Kylo Ren is just a mask, and if you took it off, Ben would still be there, staring back at you.

So, she never calls him that, not in meetings with the resistance, not when talking to the General, not when Poe is saying goodbye on his next mission and she is saying back, “Be careful. Ben almost caught you last time.” When she feels resentful, she likes to think she’s taking away his power, the glamour of the Dark Side he’s used to disguise the fact that he used to just be a man. When she’s so sad she can barely talk or leave her room, she likes to imagine that Luke is right, and that every time she says his name, she’s bringing him back, just a little.

She still dreams of him. Not the monster he’s become, but the boy she grew up with. They used to be inseparable. She’d start a sentence, and he would finish it, and they’d both grin like they’d planned the whole thing. They dashed through crowds without ever losing track of each other, pulled pranks on Poe that left all three of them laughing, and always had each other’s backs. They hid away in the Falcon, Rey fumbling with a mechanical puzzle box Luke had gifted her when she turned twelve, and Ben with his ‘serious’ face on that he thought made him look more adult. It kind of made her want to throw the toy at him.

“Uncle Luke is going to train me to be a Jedi.” She nodded absently, and Ben frowned, annoyed. He reached out right as she had almost solved it, and the toy flew out of her hand and into his. She felt a protest form and die on her tongue when she realized what he’d done.

“That’s awesome!” Ben was at that age where the most important thing in the world was how cool he appeared to others, and when she held out her hand, he floated the toy back to her, carefully, brow furrowed in concentration. It took him weeks to perfect even that, but he never told her. He wanted it to seem effortless. Years later, when she’s trying to learn herself, she laments how easy it was for him, how she’ll never be as good, and Leia is eventually the one to tell her that the first time he tried to use the Force, he hit himself in the face with a rock he was trying to make hover.

“You could be one, too.” He leaned back, proud, already certain she’d be by his side. Because why wouldn’t she? Rey turned the box over in her hands. She wasn’t sure what she wanted to do. She knew she could feel the Force, humming in the air around her and burning in her lungs when she and Ben got into a rare fight. If Ben could use it, so could she.

“Maybe,” she answered, finally. “Maybe, I’ll be a smuggler. And then I can come flying in to save you.” She’d been raised on the stories of the rebellion, most of them from Poe, who liked to embellish. For a moment, Ben scowled, but it vanished as quickly as it had come, and Rey wrote it off, like she did every time. She wishes she hadn’t. She wishes she’d seen the pattern long before it led him to the First Order, not because she could have stopped it, but because it would have saved her a lot of heartache to understand why he could turn on them. The Skywalker family legacy weighed down on him in a way she never experienced, and instead of letting go, growing beyond it, he let that resentment fester until all he wanted to do was tear apart the tapestry his mother and uncle wove out of a broken and divided galaxy.

He still hasn’t seen the irony in doing it all in Darth Vader’s name.

“Wait for me,” she’d told him firmly, on that last day before he left with Luke. “I’ll be ready soon. I’ll come join you. We can both be Jedi.” By then, she had made up her mind. Wherever Ben went, so did she. She thought it’d work the other way around, too. He hugged her, and he promised, said he would always wait for her. She had no reason not to believe him. Ben had spent his childhood with her running after him, three years younger and never as fast as him, but he’d always let her catch up. He’d always waited.

Until one day, he didn’t.

Rey woke up screaming, clutching the sides of her head like there were blaster bolts bouncing around inside it. She was screaming for Ben, begging him, trying to make him hear her and stop doing whatever was hurting her, hurting them. She’d never felt anything like that pain, and in the back of her mind, it still lingered, her senses dulled to it purely by how long it had been happening, but the first time was agony. She’d lived so long with Ben a part of her that she couldn’t have ever been prepared for him to try and rip them apart.

He almost killed Luke. He took the other students, killed the ones who wouldn’t follow him, and chose Snoke to be his new master. And he made Rey do it, too. She had nightmares through his eyes of tearing the school apart, the smell of a lightsaber cutting through flesh making her sick when she escaped the dream. She’s still not sure if Ben knew he was damning her with him, and she doesn’t care if it matters or not. He still did it. She’s still dreaming about it and every other monstrous thing he’s done.

That’s why when Leia says that there might still be Light in him, she laughs bitterly. She’s been in every corner of his head as he’s been in every corner of hers, and if there’s still a chance, she’s yet to find it. Poe, at least, understands. He watched Ben grow up too, if from another perspective, already an adult when the First Order rose to power. He’s the only one who knows she still has nightmares. She’s learned to muffle the screams. Poe doesn’t try to fill up the space Ben left, either, but he stays, tells her pilots’ gossip and makes terrible jokes and gives her tips on how to flirt with the other girls on base that he isn’t remotely qualified to give. Ben was her brother, or another piece of her soul, depends on who you ask, but Poe’s her friend, and that’s worked out much better for her so far.

Ben Solo is Kylo Ren is a monster and a murderer and a terror upon the galaxy and is still Ben. She wants to hate him, but can’t, and wonders if she could forgive him, but can’t, and wishes she could do what everyone else does and believe the mask he’s chosen and the name he’s been given and the lies he’s weaved around himself, but can’t. She’s going to have to face him one day, maybe even fight him, maybe even kill him, and she’s not sure if she can do that either. The worst part is that she misses him, even though he doesn’t deserve to be missed.

It would be so much easier if she could just kill Kylo Ren.

Writer Asks

Thanks for the tag, @demonscantgothere and @theriverwild ❤️

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

16

2. What's your total A03 words count?

351,191

3. What fandoms do you write for?

The Rings of Power, The Silmarillion/Lord of the Rings, Cursed

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

(667) To Follow the Light (ROP- Halbrand/Galadriel)

(542) In Pursuit (Cursed- Nimue/Lancelot)

(510) Accursed Salvation (Cursed- Nimue/Lancelot)

(424) The Lesser of Two Evils (ROP- Sauron/Galadriel)

(264) On the Twelfth Night, or, Epiphany: How Galadriel Seduced a Priest and Discovered the True Meaning of Christmas (ROP-Halbrand/Galadriel)

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

Yes. Not always as timely as I should, but I appreciate every one of them!

6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Oh boy. Not finished with it yet, but I’m sure it will be the Lesser of Two Evils. Of finished fics, probably Into Darkness Fell His Star (a canon-adjacent doomed romance between Gil-galad and Celebrían)

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

On the Twelfth Night, for sure. It’s a Christmas fic and one of the few that actually has a happy ending.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

No, thankfully. But I don’t really write anything exciting/controversial. 

9. Do you write smut? If so what kind?

Yep. Comparatively, probably pretty vanilla, but I did write a threesome one time.

10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?

No. I’m not that ambitious.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I know of.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Nope, but had a friend do a podfic for a couple chapters of Two Evils, which was pretty cool.

13. Have you ever cowritten a fic before?

No, but I’m open to it! 

14. What's your all-time favourite ship?

This is an impossible question. Bellarke has a special place in my heart. Honorable mentions: CaptainSwan, Reylo, Haladriel, Celrond, and Celreinion

15. What's a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?

I want to finish them all, but I’m so absorbed in all things Tolkien that I’m not sure when I’ll get back to those first ones.

16. What are your writing strengths?

Characterization and dialogue. Or so I’ve been told. I’ve also been told I’m funny, and you better believe that went to my head.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Description. I don’t see anything when I read, and it carries over to writing sometimes.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

Yup. I’m a bit of a linguistics nerd, and I’m writing Tolkien-related things, so if it fits for the characters/situation, I’m all for it. But I try to include it in a way that doesn’t require footnotes to understand what’s going on, because that can take me out of a story.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

This little show called Cursed on Netlfix. I got bored during covid lockdown and decided to try my hand at fic writing. But the show got cancelled after one season. 

20. Favourite fic you've ever written?

Hmmmm. A recent one, but I think it might be this is the winter of our youth. (Modern Celreinion). This fic was a lot of things I don’t usually write, but it was a story I really enjoyed telling and I’m really happy with how it turned out.

Tagging: I'm not sure who has done this and who hasn't, but I'll tag @scriberated @myfavouritelunatic @cliffdivingsblog @klynnvakarian , @myrsinemezzo, @pursuitseternal and @rebelrebelwrites. No pressure, though!

Ben Solo has a secret: he likes to get online strangers off with his deep voice and dirty words. It's hot, and it's anonymous. At least, he thought it was. He never expected anyone would be able to recognize him from his voice. But then again, reyoflight is his most dedicated subscriber...

Hello! I was tagged in the reylo podfic post-- feel free to podfic anything of mine. cool project, thanks for the work that goes into podding! (i think there's a podracing joke in there somewhere)

gizkasparadise also said: “oops, should add! i'm nymja on ao3 (link to Reylo fics)″

[[Rambling ahead, all ye who enter... but links to help with podficcing too!]]

//

You got it! I’ll add it to the list for anyone to grab when I get the chance. ^_^ Thanks for participating! Here’s hoping it’s as good a project as it has the potential to be. D’: hahaha. Might take a while to amp up, for there to be other, new podficcers out there, and it will definitely take a while for the longer fics to go up! I tend to record raw recording footage for about ~10 episodes, in the case of this 25 chapter one I’m doing right now, then start editing and posting. But some people certainly like to record the whole thing first so they know they won’t leave something half-finished, and that is a fair approach too. :)

As for those worrying about making it ‘pretty’.... I literally just read the title, author, summary, ship, fandom, important and major tags and/or warnings.... don’t add any music, though I may sometime in the future!... (here I insert, after I’ve edited the whole chapter, approximately how long the episode runs for)... then I say the chapter number, state my name again, read any chapter summaries if there are any.... pause.... THEN LET THE RACE BEGIN!

(There, I made the joke for you. xD ahahaha)

Then I upload to Mediafire because it’s actually frickin’ FREE for real, has a lot of space, then uber-simply hyperlink it directly into the body of the chapter with title, author, reader, chapter time, and what chapter this is out of total chapters.

If that helps anyone! I know this isn’t what you asked, but I figured I may as well make use of my manic state and channel it into some tips and tricks. OH. And here’s some links:

Enjoy! Now I’ll actually go do what I intended and add you to the original post’s list. :P Thank you for putting up with my manic bout, but I hope it’s useful for someone waffling about podficcing!

Vroom vroom.

HERE IS THE OFFICIAL POST for the call for more podficcers, and the call to authors to let us know if they want any of their fics podficced! You can recommend fics of others you’d like to see podficced, fics of yours, and tag more people to add to the chain! Thanks for everyone’s support and help! <3

Let’s Pod Together!

[smuthuttpodcast]

I just found the podcast last week and I’m in love. You made a week from hell at work less hellish. I’m a big fan of listening to podfic while working and this was kinda like that. There is a subject for a future issue. Why aren’t there more trashy reylo podfics being made?

Hey @random-ocity !!

First off, thank you for checking us out! We are so glad you are enjoying the podcast! We are always interested in hearing about different ways fic is created and shared.  And we all need more trashy Reylo podfic in our lives.  There are a good number of podfic places on twitter like audioawakens, and sithspence. Hope your week gets better! Thanks for the ask 💜

THANKSVEMBER DAY 5: A LAMENT-HEAVEN OF DISORDERED STARS, THIS ONE SO LOVED BY GET_THEE_TO_A_PATISSERIE

Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Fandom: Star Wars Ship: Reylo

“It starts to feel like hanging somewhere halfway between life and death, and she begins to wonder if this limbo is to consume the rest of her days when, one night, the dream changes.Something like hope begins to grow within her chest. Rey grieves, waiting alone in the desert once more. But the Force works in mysterious ways, and a dyad was never meant to be split forever. [or: the Skywalker actually rises in this one, and these two get a happy ending]”

Why I Recommend It: Oh, god, this fic has so many feelings. It takes place after the Skywalker Saga and is divided into three parts: Rey, Ben, and them together. The ending is so sweet and perfect and honestly what they deserved. It makes Ben go through a process of remorse and atonement (though it’s only the beginning) as well as having some mentoring roles from Anakin, Han, and Leia! The writing is SO beautiful, literally so beautiful I literally just want to scream while reading it because !!!!!! yk? I am in the process of podficcing this fic, but I’m only around halfway through. (Self-promo: if you want to take a listen, the first chapter of the podfic is here.)

phoenix - (with podfic link!)

There is nothing to control the contrails of her flight now, Kylo muses when she stirs—she is guided only by the rhythm of instinct: a raw, unbarred thing. Lit like a fuse, an infantry line in the steady pounding of her breast. Beat on and on and on.

In which Kylo offers, and Rey makes her choice—for she has nothing left to burn but herself.

The podfic version of phoenix can be found here on a03, read by Azdaema Pods (Azdaema). They can also be found here on tumblr, so check out their other podfics and tell them what you think!

@jjackfrost okay yeah this sounds insane. backstory: my mom is an avid audiobook reader and will listen to basically anything
