yesyesyes....
Not as often and more often than I'd like, though. Some, I love so much that I don't want to ruin be rereading, or by rereading a lot - and I just keep them loved and safe and frozen as I drift away from them, usually....
Some fic I've reread trying to find points for a literary analysis I wanted to to write, that was interesting - though I don't know if that's the sort of thing writers would be comfortble with, and it was a long time ago, anyway....
and then there is podfic. Some podfics I have taken with me to dangerous/scary places/times, and have listened to to over and over again so many times, so so so so many, -.... some I know parts of by heart, some I know the emotion to brace myself for next sometimes, even if I don't remember the words or plot or troggers to come....
Some of the intonations the readers' used have become references for me, part of a a pop culture fnaodm I may not share with anyone....
yass....
no subject
I've never been able to get into podfic (aural learning is not at all my strong point, and regardless of how good the story/book is I get distracted by thoughts or forget I'm listening to a thing), but I'm glad that it's such a powerful genre for you! And I hope that the dangerous/scary was that way in a way that was good for you, and not in a way that was bad. <333 I'm really interested in hearing more about the intonations as reference thing, if you'd be interested in speaking more about that!
no subject
then if you read "get this" or "I lost my shoe" out of context, you might still get the intonation they had/ve or you might complete "because you're my brother" -> " and I love you" - boop -
so th same, only with things from the podfics - ways the readers said things, or things being said, that stood out for some reason (can be things not related to the creation itself like the place I would usually start listening or such.... could be an emotional reason, something about the sound, or the cadence of the text.... idk! could be many reasons. Maybe even - some specific lins take me to things I experienced as I was listening, so maybe that....
I'm drifting away from the point.
The same way that I might be walking down the street and my flip flot tears and flaps off my foot, and I go "I lost my shoe " and am amused and comforted by it -
I might - say - be struggling with some self care, which yeah, is a challenge for me in more cases than I'm happy to admit - and I might remember - the intonation of some of the line, usually also the words of the line like "some shit about how Dean’s knee is sprained and he needs to stay off it, keep it elevated and ice it and maybe tell it stories and sing it songs, blah, blah, blah, more bossy, controlling stuff that Dean tunes out" from
