Grace Does Stupid Stuff in Her Spare Time, AKA Grace's Fanfiction Audiobooks

<< < (2/7) > >>

OniZetto:
Hmm, interesting setup for these kiddos. But since you've done the whole story for six years, I wouldn't mind if there aren't any iM@S girls.

Writing stories isn't that easy, I'm also thinking about my own fan story, which is about aerial combat of a fictional war, but it just goes nowhere...

Trust me, I know. XDD I've been writing nearly non-stop for a VERY long time. Writer's block is your worst nightmare.

I'll definitely try to find something iM@S-related I can do one day. :P

In the meantime, re-uploaded the scripts for parts 1 and 2. They now include the name of the role the character is playing after their name. If there is no role, but the character does not play themselves, that character is only speaking as themselves.

This applies to the next two scripts also. Thanks to altuixde for the advice!

Now presenting Part 3:

Is color-coding who's speaking helping? That way you can glance at the color of the text to get a feel for who's talking now. Or is it just kind of distracting to you guys?

Things To Explain For Part 3:
"That's the nicest you've EVER spoken to me!"--Melissa doesn't talk to her son very often.
Slang word for O.T.N.--Basically O.T.N is the place where the sun don't shine.
"Rockin Wocky, ooh ooh OOH OOH~"--If you don't get that reference shame on you. "Rockin' Robin" is a very popular song from back in the day. :U
"Interjections, show excitement, or emotion..."--A Schoolhouse Rock song reference.
My Neck Still Hurts--And so does my back everything hurts ;-;
"Breathing in the sweet scent of lavenders...coming from Rolf's expensive female perfume."--Everyone's always making fun of Rolf for being like a woman in the way he holds in his feelings and then acts really emotional all the time and everyone is like "omg Rolf stahp". Now Melissa's getting in on the fun too. :U
"I can't talk as Envy anymore."--I literally did four of these in one day and his voice is so raspy and it hurts my throat so badly
Various Aiden Jokes--Aiden's a troll. If him saying something will make you mad, he's going to say it.

Things To Explain For Part 4:
Miku-tan--She really is amazing go look her up I've had her music playing this whole time
Blaze's "Sexy Time" Jokes--Heck all the sex jokes--I was ten when I wrote these and looking back I see it's LITTERED with innuendos and things that can be misinterpreted and that scene where Nin shows up for the first time is practically a G-rated rape scene and I just realized it help
Nin Not Being Able to Talk--I can't talk and he ended up getting the brunt of it and I'm not sure why.
"...Girly feelings."--Remember everyone making fun of Rolf for being girly? Yeah, they mention his girly feelings all the time. Aoi did it during her impersonation of him too. :U
Nin's Full Name--Asians don't have middle names stupid ten-year-old Grace what were you doing. I think he has two first names instead.
"She always calls you Nancy."--Nin looks a bit like a girl so Tzigana started calling him Nancy to make fun of him. It stuck. Forever.
Aiden's Whole Freaking First Scene--This guy will never say what's written.
Kelly--She keeps showing up while I do these and by the time she does I'm too far in to stop so she ends up contributing.
"...Pick that up and feed it to me. :U"--I brought food downstairs. Kelly was eating some and she dropped it, so I told her to feed me so I could focus on continuing to read. :U
"He's been sacked."--In Monty Python and the Holy Grail, the entire credits crew is "sacked".
"Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelt of elderberries."--The classic French taunt from said Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Things To Explain In General:

Sometimes Life Happens--Sometimes life happens (my mom yells at me, I lose my place, I forget how to speak English, Kelly comes downstairs, the phone rings). I did all of these in one take, so whenever life happens...life happens. .-."
Leaped Vs. Leapt--I think they're both technically correct, actually, but "leaped" sounds really ugly and I hate saying it.
"Where am I?"-- I used a paper copy of these while I was recording, so sometimes I got lost.

Sorry for disappearing for a few days! Anyway, I finished part 2. Even with the character descriptions I'm still pretty lost, but that's my fault, I'm just slow. When I read a book, it isn't until several chapters in that I actually know what's going on. About the color-coding: it does help!

These things are like, 5 hours of total content, I don't expect anyone to watch them all at once XD
Honestly, as long as you guys laugh at this as much as I did I'll be happy. :P

Would some sort of plot summary help? :U I'm sure interrupting myself all the time doesn't help. :P

In any case, the best episode is done:

The end is like a bad shounen anime and it's beautiful.
Script so you can follow along with all the craziness:

The ending gets me every time
I don't know if it'll be the same for you but like
Every time

Things I Need To Explain:
"I'm SO DIZZY"--You try screaming for like half an hour straight in like twelve different voices, the vast majority of which are men's voices while you are female haha.
"Thank Fyora."--In the Neoverse, Fyora's basically God.
All the innuendos--There are a lot of them in this one.


I should probably apologize to people because sometimes rape jokes happen and they really aren't jokes because rape is not even okay
But honestly my characters have minds of their own.
And I look at these things now and realize that there are so many like really bad innuendos
But still, sorry for that. I don't mean to offend anyone.

altuixde:
Ah yes! A plot summary would help! When I have a plot summary before watching a movie, for instance, I can follow the movie more easily. Actually it depends on the movie; lots of movies are simple enough for me to follow without effort. A complete summary would be detrimental, though, because that would give away the end. How about something like those plot summaries that they put on a movie's page in the iTunes store that describes what the movie is about and entices people to watch it?

Even though I don't always understand what's going on, these are fun to listen to because you sound like you had fun recording them! Some of the lines of the part 2 script you read so fast... how did you do that? :o
