Pairing: Frank/Gerard
Length: 24 Minutes
Rating: PG

 Gerard is BORED with it, okay. He wants to dance his own steps, and he's gonna do it. A Strictly Ballroom AU not!fic. Will likely make absolutely no sense at ALL if you haven't seen the movie, which is one of the best things in the entire fucking universe.

Notes:
This was so much fun to record! I've actually never seen Strictly Ballroom, but I totally get it. DANCE  :D

OMG this was awesome! I loved hearing your interpretation of this! So funny and your accent is so cool and I loved every second of this. ♥

I have yet to listen to your version but I very excited!

Thank you!

OH MAN I am so sorry I didn't get back to your emails over the weekend, but I am SO THRILLED you did this! I had so much fun writing this not!fic, and the way that you performed it and expressed everything was just fabulous. I grinned SO HARD throughout it, and I especially loved the noises you did for the O________O and :| and all that! SO GREAT.

Also this is possibly really shallow but I adore your accent and LOVED hearing you saying my words. It felt like a new story to me. I loved it so much! ♥

Aw, thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I sometimes fail at checking if authors have blanket permission so sorry about the message I sent before :))

I really loved it! ♥ Your accent is cure and I love when people read not!fics, because then it sounds like you're telling a story instead of simply reading it and the sad/happy noises you made were adorable. :D

The only thing that was a tiny bit problematic for me was your speed, because English isn't my first language it's a little bit hard to do the translating-in-my-mind-while-listening thing, but it's really my fault not yours, I should learn the language better. :) I hope you'll make more podfics! ♥

Thank you for the lovely comment!

I've gotten the "speak too fast" comments before, and I'm well aware of it! I was even sent to a speech therapist as a child to teach me to slow down!

I plan to make many more podfics after my exams in June so I hope you enjoy them too!

If it makes any difference, I think if English would be my first language I wouldn't think you're too fast or that you need to slow down. Especially if it's a not!fic which as I said sounds better when you're telling a story instead of reading, so it has to be natural and people talk fast when they talk in their language. At least I do. :D

Good luck with exams and I'll try to patiently wait for June! :)
