Happy Birthday Week Kaje! Please enjoy the beginning of this long podfic I've been working on in the hopes of sharing the incredible Hevy content contained in this story with you!
I have this podfic 2/3 done right now, and the plan is to post weekly until it's complete!
Chapter 1 was made back in January for Voiceteam Mystery Box for negative points XD with cover art by the incredible Stripey!
As Voiceteam winds down, I am happy to report that I only have like five chapters left of this to record (although a bunch to still fiddle with sfx on)! Very confident I can keep it to a chapter per week through the end of the year!
Also, please enjoy some of my favorite scenes in the fic in this chapter!!
Apologies for the lateness of this one, I totally forgot on Wednesday, and then our beloved AO3 was down last night! I hope you enjoy now that it's up!
*rises from my grave* I'M ALIIIIIVE AND I'M HEEEERE FOR OBSCURE STAR WARS LEGENDS CHARACTER FIIIIIICS
I think granta omega is such a good blorbo cuz he has so much potential lol there was so little of him cuz he only actually showed up in like four books I think, but there was also so MUCH of him cuz he really fills the stage when he's there XD
YESSSSS JOIN MEEEEE I AM SO GLAD YOU'RE HERE FOR THIS ONE MY FRIEND (sorry to reply in reverse, the effect miss catch had me immediately on it lmao)
I will admit Granta is another of those blorbos I know exclusively/mainly through blackkat's fics and I'm like. my friends are once again like "WHO the fuck are you going on about NOW?" and I'm like. *taps 1000 slide ppt presentation* "settle in buds"
but genuinely like even in blackkat's fics I love how there's a few core elements of character they clung to and ran with, but the context of each fic he stars in makes his story turn out so differently each time hhhhhh I am so obsessed. he's probably not overtaken Jon on the blorbo scale but he's definitely a close second runner
that’s the beauty of characters that have fleeting but BIG roles! those few extreme character traits that we glimpsed are all we have to go off of when we write more of them! ;P
I can't believe there's a podfic for my all-time favorite fic now! Thank you so much for recording this, finding it was a bright spot on an unpleasant day for me.
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Love this fic!!! Excellent choice to pod! :D I'm even more excited to listen. I seem to miss all of Granta's personality just reading it myself.
lol I'm having a vision of obi-wan discovering omega's existance and also discovering who exactly omega is and freaking out initially- only for omega to be like "dude, I've been underwater for a decade and I'm also apparently a deadbeat dad. ur OLD NEWS, KENOBI"
legit like sorry if this is spoilers but the amount that Granta in this fic is like "I SHOULD care about wanting to destroy Kenobi but uh. there's some Bigger Shit happening and my kids are 10000% more important, lmao" is incredible
Oh my god. The emotion in this! You actually made me cry, and my hands are trembling from the plot twist at the end there. I am breathless with relief. So much emotion, and you've managed to bring it to a whole new level. Again. I know I say it every time, but that is only because I have no other words I can express it with: I absolutely love the way you're reading this fic.
I love you so much omg, THANK YOU. I am so very emotional about this fic and I really wanted it to HIT especially those mic-drop end of chapter moments, and I am THRILLED that it's bringing out those feelings when you listen to it!! I get really into recording and get to where I'm like shaking too so it's thrilling to know you're feeling the same thing when listening to the recording as I felt when narrating it. You are wonderful and your comments absolutely light up my day, thank you <3
10:49 was this supposed to have the voice filter over it? I was a little confused cuz at first I thought it was Omega saying that line, but it seems more like Hunti Pereg's line.
"some part of his lizard brain whispers" SIR you cannot just throw out a line like that so casually I CHOKED ONMY RICE LOL
I WAS SO SURE THERE WAS ONE EFFECT I MISSED IN THAT CONVO BUT I COULDN'T FIND IT ON RELISTENS, THANK UUUUUU <3 I've fixed the audio file and I'll redo the uploads at some point today XD
Granta is one of my favorite POVs to read (and narrate), he's just such a funky little weirdo (with full affection). the amount of my friends' dms I keep ranting about this fic in who have zero interest in it but are forced to listen to me is uhhhhh not small lmao
The amount of self restraint I have to exhibit to not sob or screech rn is insane. I love love love how you read the revelation. Fucking shit ow my heart
Lovely as always. I absolutely adore how you read Domino, especially Droitbait and Fives. Love how you read Cody in this, too. And the denial really comes through. Can’t wait for the next few chapters. Some of my favourite moments of this fic are in there, and I can’t wait to hear how you read them. Thank you for your work <3
Thank you so much!! I am so so glad you're enjoying it!! I really love voicing the Dominos and it's been so wonderful podding this fic and having Cutup and Hevy be such central characters at various points. And of course Cody! I always have a Cody voice because I got into Star Wars through a Codywan podfic and he was my first "ooh I like this guy, what's his deal?" draw to the fandom, but funnily he's almost harder to voice at points in this fic because he's NOT the focus and I'm so distracted by all the other clones XD
he's so powerful lmao, I love himmmmm XD also I love the amount of moments like that in the fic where he's so serious about shit and then if you take a step back and look at it from outside his POV it's honestly silly af
I am so glad you also share this vision because I love relistening to this pod and often I'll be so absorbed in it and then I'll just stop and be like wait. omfg. what a fucking idiot I love them all
it’s becoming clear that the Du Crion family only has two modes: “I AM DEZTROYING YOU MY NUMBER ONE ENEMY” and “MY ONE PURPOSE IN LIFE IS TO PROTECT YOU”
is it just me or am I picking up on some one-sided Granta-99 jealousy??? T_T it’s hard to choose between the parent who supported your squad from the beginning and wants to see you succeed and the parent who will stalk you throughout your Hero’s Journey to make sure you’re safe XD maybe they can coparent by the end of it!
MY BABIE JAX I LOVE HE PRECIOUS BOY Jax really said “this family is Dysfunctional and I am making myself a PART OF IT!!!”
omg that really explains why I am so obsessed with Granta, my favorite kind of character is one who has zero chill and is ride or die in all ways right off the bat XD
oh there is DEFINITELY some of Granta being jealous of 99, that's what I see in it and that's 100% how I narrated it accordingly. but it's a very bittersweet kind where Granta is jealous because he wants to be that for his kids, but is also like "at least they HAVE that parental figure in their lives" they will ABSOLUTELY be coparenting lmao, especially when 99 finds out Granta's saving Droidbait
OH FUCK THIS CHAPTER HURT SO BAD AND HEALED SO GOOD
echo, feeling insecure abt being a clone and abt jax being so close to granta probably: we’re not ur sons we’re ur CLONES idk what game ur playing SIR
granta: 😟💔 jax: >:( don’t ever fucking talk to me or my dad ever again
literally I wanna see bby jax THROW HANDS with echo cuz highkey he deserves it (ik he’s probably going through something but!!!! that was messed up!!!)
rex: a cadet named jax was just listed as missing in action rex: rex, staring into the middle distance: that kriffing definitely-NOT-an-engineer nerfherder stole one of our kids
I also desperately need Granta and Jax to pop up on random worlds as they stalk the domino squad and all the other clones are like “who is?? small cadet??” but jax is like “NO NO I HAVE A DAD SEE UR MISTAKEN”
Okay but like literally!!! this is one of my FAVORITE chapters for the feels roller coaster from "we're not your sons" to "I'D GO (WITH YOU)" just ughhhhhh CRYING FOREVER
fun fact my friend and I literally refer to this fic just as "Dad Granta Fic"
also laughing so much at the thing you want to see, because uhhhhh NO SPOILERS BUT GIVE IT LIKE 8 OR SO CHAPTERS AND YOU'LL GET SOMETHING LIKE THAT
I like this chapter so much! Especially the contrast between how desperate and hurt Granta is and how he tries to play it cool. Plus Jax is one of my favorite characters. You can tell Granta essentially raised him, they both have the same energy of snarky kindness.
Jax is literally my favorite character in this fic omg XD he's just so much fun, such a brat but also so loving and wholesome and good. 100% agree that you can tell Granta raised him in his kindness, but also love that he's got more Morals XD
I am also so glad that Granta's desperation came through well!! This is one of my favorite chapters, both to read and to relisten to in the podfic, and I am thrilled to hear someone else loved it as much as I do!
echo and fives: oh my god this is a goddamn conSPIRACY THIS GOES ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP WHO IS GRANTA REALLY?! WHO CAN WE TRUST????
granta: I got these rooms set up for domino when the war is over and I’m ready to jump in and protect them the moment they deploy and you know what why don’t I just go ahead and kill the sith so they don’t even have to go to war at all???
LITERALLY, but in their defense, it's SUPER WEIRD to have a random parent show up out of the blue who is willing to kill and die for you lmao XD poor kids were nOT READY for Granta's level of ride or die XDDDDD
