[Podfic] The Sound of Silence
A Carry On podfic by @captain-aralias for the @caught-on-tape-fest
Tumblr media
“But that spring, I actually did try and take Snow down.” Fifth year. Baz wins – and deals with the consequences.
Rated T / 49 mins / 10,192 words
————————————————————————
Podfic #2 for the Caught On Tape Carry On Podfest! This is The Sound of Silence by aralias! This one's also for Teen and Up Audiences, with Ch1 around 28 mins and Ch2 around 21 mins! This fic is another one of my old favorites, and it was so much fun editing it all up!
Once again I need to seriously thank the mods for this fest! They've all been SO supportive and kind and made me feel so much closer to a fandom I've cherished so much for the past two years but was always too scared to be more than a lurker in! I was so worried about learning to make podfics and exposing my voice to internet strangers, and yet the reception I got for my first podfic was completely mind-blowing and heart-melting, and I'm so grateful to all the amazing people in this fandom! This would not have been possible without all of them, but the mods super duper especially!!
I've got one last fic on the way that I'm gonna have to really go crunch time on, but for now enjoy listening to The Sound of Silence by aralias!

My first podfic for @caught-on-tape-fest of the wonderful @fatalfangirl's tremendous fic Playing the Field (which I have been obsessed with ever since it was posted).
[Podfic] Playing the Field on AO3 (rated E, length 45:53)
Baz is back on the football team after his late start to Eighth year, and his performance has been subpar. He can't score to save his life... and after Simon accidentally curses him, that's exactly what he'll need to do.
I re-read this one so often that I figured I might as well take a shot a re-reading it out loud for everyone else. As soon as I saw Stacy had put it on the claiming list I jumped on it!

[Podfic] Flowers, Cake, and Filthy DMs
Tumblr media
(Oh my, what's this? A podfic? Just making it in under the deadline? Must be Jo's.)
Baz’s excitement over his favourite Instagram florist coming to his restaurant to create a holiday window display is over shadowed by that fact that he stupidly sent him a very dirty DM the night before. Disaster panic ensues.
Written by @you-remind-me-of-the-babe // Read by @iamamythologicalcreature // for the @caught-on-tape-fest 2023
Rated T // about 11 minutes
Not just my first podfic, but also my first time posting on AO3. (I'm not nervous. Who's nervous? Not me.) Take a listen!
Gratitude gushing under the cut!
Thanks so much to @you-remind-me-of-the-babe for opening this lovely little story up for podficcing! Thanks also to @cutestkilla for being relentlessly supportive during this whole, ah, let's say process.
And of course, the modding side of things - so much gratitude for organizing this podfic fest! The explosion of podfics that I've seen from this fest is just... well, it's awesome. I've been binging fanfic since posting started for this fest - something I would never be able to do, otherwise. Setting up this fest was inspired, and I also greatly appreciate the work and dedication that went into making it all come together.
Podfics are such an amazing contribution to the fandom, and I'm really glad I was able to participate at least a little. I hope everyone (including myself) continues to create podfics - not just for those who need the assistance reading, but for everyone who enjoys the listening experience!

[Podfic] Petrichor
Written by @martsonmars, Podficced by me for @caught-on-tape-fest
Summer is ending, and with it Simon and Baz's gap year. The time before Simon leaves for college in the States is dwindling, and Baz already feels his best friend slipping through his fingers.
But maybe they just need a rainy day and a bit of carefree fun to reconnect and figure out what they really want.
Features: biking under the rain, childhood memories, and long-awaited confessions. And a nap.

We’re running a podfic festival called Caught on Tape for the Carry On Fandom! Any ship, any length, any experience level!
Some info on this event:
What is it?
A fest to encourage members of the CO fandom to try their hand at podficcing, and to get us more excellent podfic content.
Okay cool, but what’s a podfic?
Podfic is an audio recording of fanfic, read aloud by a fan (or several). The term is also used as a verb; someone may ask to podfic someone else's story, or spend an afternoon podficcing. Podfic is also known as audiofic. (Thanks Fanlore!)
When is it happening?
Podfics will be posting from October 29th to November 11th, 2023. Sign-ups for authors to give explicit permission for their fics to be made into podfics will open soon, and stay open until August 31st. Podfic creator signups will open September 1st and run to September 15th. A detailed schedule will follow shortly!
Who can participate?
Everyone! No matter your experience level or your recording setup, we want you! Watch this blog for helpful tips on podfic production. Detailed fest rules coming soon!
What rating can the podfic be?
Any rating may be created. We simply ask that no minors create podfics for M-/E-rated fics.
Which fics can be podficced?
Any fic, as long as the author has given permission. This permission can be given three different ways: (1) the authors will be given a chance to give permission for specifc fics of theirs in a list we’ll be maintaining (more details to come); (2) the authors can provide blanket permission on their AO3 profile or Tumblr to let podficcers know any of their works may be podficced; (3) a podficcer can reach out to an author directly to ask for express consent.
How many podfics can someone create?
As many as you want!
If anyone has any other questions, please let us know via ask/reply/dm!
More details to follow soon, please follow for updates and reblog to spread the word.

[Podfic] Return to Sender
A Carry On podfic by @tea-brigade for the @caught-on-tape-fest!
Tumblr media
When he turned his key and opened the little panel, several packages that had been unceremoniously stuffed inside tumbled out at him, spilling onto the floor. A few more remained lodged inside, and a key to the parcel boxes hung precariously off the ledge.
...what.
Scooping up the fallen parcels, Baz inspected them. As he figured, they were not addressed to him, but to one Simon Snow. An unusually large case of a usual misdelivery. The address on each one, however, was clearly Baz’s.
All seven of them.
____
Or: How a simple case of misplaced mail leads to such things as cheer-up-the-bachelor parties, transience as a state of being, the icepocalypse, and mildly prophetic Taylor Swift lyrics.
Rated T / 40 mins / 7,535 words
————————————————————————
Ta-da! Today I’m posting my first podfic for the Caught on Tape Carry On Podfest! This is Return to Sender by tealbrigade, and it is in fact a fic that is very close to my heart when it comes to the Carry On fandom! (Details in fic, I won’t ramble)
It’s for Teen and Up Audiences and about 40 mins! Highly recommend if you want some lighthearted romance that’s just a little bit tropey in a great way!
Learning how to podfic was probably one of the most confusing and challenging yet satisfying and passion filled things I’ve ever had to do, and although I am a little insecure about the quality of my first work and whether it lives up to this wonderful fic, I CAN say that I put my heart and soul into it. (Yes, even the somewhat rudimentary cover I tried so hard to make)
Finally, thank you so much to those at the @caught-on-tape-fest for making this whole thing possible, and for dragging me kicking and screaming into the strange new world of making podfics!
Please enjoy Return to Sender and keep and eye out for my other podfics later!

"Eclipse" is the second installment of my Dannymay 2023 angst-fest.
Summary: Jack Fenton loves his son, and is proud of all that he has accomplished as Phantom. Too bad that Maddie wasn't in on the secret. After a surprise encounter, Jack rushes his gravely wounded child to the only person who might possibly be able to help...Vlad Masters. Even the experienced hands of Danny's once-rival cannot change what is meant to be. Enter Clockwork.
Story teaser below cut:
THE BEGINNING: Darkness falls
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Hey, Mads, why don’t you take a break and maybe go order us some takeout for supper? I’m getting mighty hungry!” Jack Fenton was full of smiles and good cheer, as always.
Madeline Fenton, however, was tired and irritated. She had been trying to perfect her newest weapon for the GIW—it was designed to completely scramble the ectoplasm in a ghost and make its base form destabilize. In theory. They hadn’t caught a ghost in over a month, due in no small part to Phantom’s intervention.
Jack quietly watched his wife’s face as she shrugged off his request. He had been doing his damnedest to sabotage her plans by altering design specs and making sure that every component piece that crossed his hands was damaged in one way or another. He really didn’t understand why she would willingly give those GIW bastards better equipment to hunt their son with. Oh well, he thought. I’ll just have to “accidentally” break this one too. Tucker would alter the computer files, like he always did. Jack smiled at the thought of his son’s best friend.
They made a good team. The kids doing their thing to protect the town, while Jack pretended to be blissfully unaware of what was going on. The kids all knew that he knew, though. After all, it was Jack who modified most of the weapons to not harm Danny, and it was Jack who made sure that they always had supplies on hand. The biggest part Jack played in Team Phantom, though, was that of the distraction. He always went overboard with his “ghost!” tirades and unwavering dedication to chasing the spooks all over the town.
His faked ineptitude worked wonders. Almost no one took their work seriously anymore, and the ones that did found that everything they got from Fentonworks turned out to be useless. The only thing that bugged him was Maddie.
He didn’t understand her place in the game. Everyone else had their part to play in protecting Danny and keeping the town safe. He knew that the love of his life cared about her children. Perhaps that was why she continued her involvement with the GIW. Maybe she was trying to gain their trust so that she would be in the right position to save Danny if those goons ever got their hands on him.
Danny’s secret was, of course, unspoken between them. The backup surveillance tapes from the day the portal had turned on showed exactly what had happened to their son. Just thinking about that day still brought tears to his eyes. His feelings of shame stayed with him, despite Danny’s forgiveness. He assumed that Maddie felt the same, and he didn’t want to bring up such a painful reminder of the reason behind their son’s half-life.
So, the pair continued their research—Jack’s true research, helped along greatly by Danny and his friends, and Maddie’s “public” research that kept the family from being taken seriously. Some of the stuff that woman’s mind cooked up! Jack laughed to himself. If he didn’t know any better, he would have sworn she believed that garbage herself. He shook his head. Oh, how he loved that woman!
Jack’s assumptions about his wife were the reason he was so shocked at her reaction to Danny coming into the lab in Phantom form. If Jack had been alone, there would be some banter, some laughter, and the father would help Danny patch up any wounds he had gotten. Then, the two would send the pesky spooks back though the portal to the Ghost Zone, where they belonged.
The thing was, Danny had always checked to see if Jack was alone before he visited the lab. On that night, for reasons no one will ever really know, Danny just forgot to check. He floated into the lab through the top wall, just like he always did after patrol, and Maddie saw him. She flew into a rage, and Jack watched on in horror as she picked up the prototype weapon she was making and fired it at their son! The sound! Oh, by the Ancients! The sound Danny made when the weapon hit him was worse than anything Jack had ever heard. When the wail had finally stopped, Danny had fled through the walls and into the night air.
Jack didn’t waste any time on his wife’s insanity. He ran from the lab and into the dark, tracking his son by the trail of murky ectoplasm marking his path. He finally caught up with Danny near the park. When he saw his son, he knew it was bad. Danny was glitching—parts of his body showed his human half, while others were still in his ghost form. He was bleeding profusely from his abdomen—the shot had nearly gone straight through him. Danny had tried to smile for Jack, but he was in too much pain.
Jack didn’t know what else to do, so he gently picked up his gravely injured child and ran as fast as he could to Vlad’s house. He knew that Vlad hated him—and why, but he hoped that his oldest friend would have enough compassion for Danny to help him. He was Danny’s only chance. By the time he arrived at the front door of Vlad’s mansion, Jack was covered in Danny’s blood and ectoplasm. He knew he looked like a creature out of a horror film, but he didn’t care. He just wanted his son to be alright. He kicked at the door to get Vlad’s attention.
Half a minute later, a very irate Mr. Masters threw open the front door. “Why can’t you people just leave me…” Vlad’s words froze in his throat. Despite all of his threats and manipulations, the oldest halfa did honestly care for Danny. The last thing he ever expected to see what a distraught Jack holding his direly wounded son, dripping blood and ectoplasm on his doorstep.
A few seconds passed in silence, then Vlad shook his head. “Bring him in and follow me.” He turned and walked deeper into the house without waiting for a response.

Another lovely year in this wonderful fandom. Here’s a little recap of how my year went:
My Writing:
Depth of Reason - Mature - 70k
How to Avoid a Scandal - Teen - 43k
Episode 3: The Diplomat, A Star Trek Redemption story - Teen - 13.5k
This list is much shorter than my list of fics written in 2022, but my fics last year were much shorter. Also, this word count is deceptive, because I wrote about 22k of Depth of Reason last year and about 20k of How to Avoid a Scandal last year as well. But! My writing goals this year were to finish these two WIPs and not take on any other projects until they were finished and I very nearly did that! Took on two projects (and more below), but I still finished these before the year finished, so pretty good!
Total words:
About 83k. Last year was more like 120k.
Other works:
Podfic of Petrichor - Teen - 34 minutes
Themes:
Finishing long works apparently! One was for my 2022 COBB and the other for my 2022 CORB. Even though these were started last year, they are the longest things I wrote since my first fic (49k) back in the second half of 2021.
Also, trying new things! Writing sci-if and recording a podfic felt very outside my wheelhouse at the time, but ultimately, I’m glad I went for it.
Top 10 fics I read in 2023:
Someone Wicked - Explicit - 60k by @artsyunderstudy
Three Months or 3,000 Miles - Gen - 3k by @larkral and art by @theimpossibledemon
Blood, Salt and Hummingbirds - Teen - 32k by @hushed-chorus
Restoration Ecology - The REmix (Baz’s version) - Explicit - 62k by @royalasstronaut
Good at Something - Explicit - 19k by @larkral
A Gift From the Propheseals - Mature - 6.5k by @skeedelvee with art by @letraspal
What Remains After the Storm - Mature - 86k by @hushed-chorus art by @erzbethluna
To Do, to Know, to Want - Mature - 8.5k by @facewithoutheart
Mishaps on Zoom - Explicit - 10k by @eelwinks
Swords Into Plowshares - Teen - 6.5k by @ileadacharmedlife
WIPs I’m excited to keep reading in 2024:
I Knew A Boy, I Knew A Man - Teen, by @shrekgogurt
Hiding Out In The Open - Mature, by @cutestkilla
A Little Bit Deadly- Explicit, by @emeryhall
Basil Pitch’s Diary - Teen, by @bookish-bogwitch
Other notable fandom things:
I helped to run @carryon-reverse-bang again with @angelsfalling16 as well as helped to put on a new event this year, @caught-on-tape-fest with @cutestkilla and @sillyunicorn
I met up with fandom friends while on a trip this past summer. Making personalized friendship bracelets as gifts, doing fic readings and crafts, and putting on our own Lady Ruth style tea party were some of my fave moments <3
I did a book club style reread of some of my fave fics with friends. I hope we do a few more in 2024!
It’s safe to say I engaged with this fandom everyday of 2023. I might get quiet on the main Discord server or Tumblr, but I’m certain I read, reblogged, wrote, DMd or otherwise participated in some way, shape or form throughout the entirety of the year.
Goals for 2024:
Read more fic! This fandom has such a wealth of works, my TBR list is a mile long and isn’t organized. I’d like to formally rework my AO3 bookmarks to exclusively show recs and either utilize the Marked for Later function or make a spreadsheet or something to better organize a proper TBR list so i don’t lose track of what I want to read next. Currently, having a dozen tabs open on my phone and another dozen on my iPad doesn’t really work well. If anyone has a brilliant system you’d suggest, please enlighten me!
I also want to read all of my physical canon books this year. I’ve only ever listened to the audiobooks! I’m currently reading my anniversary edition of Fangirl. (I think this is the prettiest book I’ve ever owned.) Up next, the Fangirl Manga, followed by the trilogy and Snow for Christmas.
More fandom meet ups! Already planning for June…
I don’t have any writing plans currently, so we shall see if/what I decide to create. I have a few ideas rolling around in my head, but nothing I’ve felt urged to put down in words. I’m sure I’ll write something, I just don’t know what it’ll be yet.
