Bandom Voice Post Meme (aka, i say "you know" a LOT when i'm nervous...)

[osaraba]

Uhhh, seriously, I sound like Brendon (in that fic by LittleMousling where Ian teaches them how to talk dirty: Post-Modern Cyrano) where he sounds ridiculously uncool and utterly laughable every time he tries to say something hot. Which, btw, makes me crack the fuck up, it's so fucking hilarious.

But here I'm basically like, no one wants to hear me talk, let me rush to the end of every answer and trip over my own tongue while I'm at it. So yeah, I even forgot to mention that I'm pretty much "osaraba" everywhere? LJ, Dreamwidth, Tumblr, Twitter...

I swear I sound less like an idiot when there are no recording devices around. Those of you who've met me in person... well, nevermind.

3. What are you wearing? Yes, I am hitting on you.
4. How long have you been in bandom? How did you get into it?
5. Which bands are your favorites?
6. Which band members are your favorites?
7. Have you seen any of them in concert? Any fun stories or memories to share?

9. What story do you wish someone would write?
10. Are you working on something for bandom right now? Tell us a little bit about it.
11. You've got fic open somewhere on your computer right now, don't lie. So go to one of your open tabs or word documents or whatever, and read us a couple of lines.
12. Say these words: Iero, haberdashery, LOLcat, flist, dirigible, halcyon, nemesis, ephemeral, languorous

Spencer! \0/ what more can be said, realy?

[osaraba]

Ahahaha, exactly. =DDD

[cinderlily.livejournal.com]

Awkward barging in here but I've been listening to all the responses for the meme and oh my gosh THANK YOU for reccing the baseball fic. It is awesome.

[osaraba]

OMG no problem! I'm so glad you listened long enough to even get to that rec! =DDD

I should've thought to link to it in the post as well, so for anyone who wants it, it's this one: Take That Fork in the Road, and the sequel: Wherever It Goes.

[tellcincinnati.livejournal.com]

I just stopped at 15 seconds to come in and tell you how much I adore your voice! OMG.

[osaraba]

<3333333333 Thank you so much bb! It really throws me to hear my voice recorded because, of course, it sounds quite different to my own ears. LOL, you can tell me in December if it sounds the same to you in person! =DDD

[honeymull.livejournal.com]

I fucking love you.

Sometimes I argue with myself about who holds the best/worst pornstache title, Dubi or Spencer. It turns really violent really fast inside my head when I do. :|

[osaraba]

alsdjfslaflsdjfsdjflsajf ILU TOO BB! <33333 You really don't know how sad I am that I'm not driving through Chicago on my way to LA-- because I want to see you so bad! You really must plan to go to Wincon Dallas because I can't bear the thought of not seeing you for more than a year. ....or if not Wincon, then come visit me in LA!!!!

My thoughts about the pornstache title:
1. I feel like best pornstache is, in practical terms, the same as worst pornstache.
2. Spencer wins, hands down, because Dubi's is TOO NEAT.
3. I long for the return of pornstache!Spencer. #unpopularopinion

But, you know, don't fight with yourself over it. =DDD

There are so many Spencer wives on my flist and it is awesome. I've listened to like 8 or 9 of these now and everyone is all favorite=Spencer which is how it should be. I have also learned that I've been at the same shows with so many fangirls. I need to get better about posting and meeting people and saying hello at concerts.

[osaraba]

Awwww I would have loved to meet up at a concert! As you may have inferred, it's clearly one of my favorite things to do! Which one(s) did you go to?

And yes, I don't think I realized quite how many people just love Spencer best. I mean, it only makes sense -- he is flawless, after all -- but I hadn't realized! \o/

[fiddleyoumust.livejournal.com]

I followed them from Clifton Park all the way to D.C. for the fall tour, so I was at a few of the same shows. I used to be a good fangirl and post about what shows I was attending and suggest meet ups and stuff, but I wandered away from LJ about a year ago and just can't get back in the habit of updating/using it.

Ugh he really is. Sadly I was around long enough ago that there were still a lot of really overzealous Brendon/Ryan shippers who kind of thought Spencer was that "fat" friend who shouldn't be getting in the way of Ryan and Brendon's true love. Then there were the Jon wives who paired him with Spencer because he was all that was left. I think there were only a handful of legit Spencer wives who understood his beauty back then. It's good to see so many people with their priorities in order!

[osaraba]

Ugh, what? It's sad to think of Spencer being so underappreciated. I don't think I've actually ever read one Brendon/Ryan fic... and I don't really intend to unless someone recs one that just sounds irresistible. In the same way I find Jon and Spencer to be too similarly "laid back", I guess I also find Brendon and Ryan both to be too moody and excitable for the dynamics to work for me.

[bootson.livejournal.com]

Oh my GOD. You are so adorable, which I already thought but I just had to say it again. :)

THE ANSWER IS ALWAYS SPENCER.

Always.

Without fail.

No doubt.

Also, now I want to write you fic because you like all the things I like.

[osaraba]

Heeee, thanks! (I want you to know that I'm blushing terribly right now. Because I just-- I just did this voice meme without looking at the questions, pretty much within 10 minutes after I woke up, and I know I sound like an incoherent idiot.)

But even so, I come up with witty gems like THE ANSWER IS ALWAYS SPENCER. =DDD

Ooooh, it makes me soooo happy that I like all the things you like! Are we talking about the breaking up/getting back together/angstangstangst part? =DDD I really do wish someone would write it-- I'd like it even more if it was not only epic but also included a chapter of Spencer fucking everything that moves to forget about his failed relationship with Brendon. (But, you know, that's me.) ^_~

OH WAIT, YOU SAID YOU WANT TO WRITE ME FIC?! YOU CAN DO THAT. YOU CAN TOTALLY DO THAT. IF YOU WANT. =DDDDDD

[bootson.livejournal.com]

I never would have been able to tell!!!

ALWAYS.

That is EXACTLY what we're talking about! Why does that fic not exist? It should absolutely exist. Also that chapter would be the greatest ever. THIS IS SERIOUSLY GOING ON MY LIST. Epic Brendon/Spencer breakup/make up fic with Spencer taking a chapter or so to fuck everyone. It's totally going somewhere within my LIST OF WIPS. And ALL BECAUsE OF YOU! ♥

[osaraba]

;laskjfdlsjflsahfljsadfljks! \\\o/// Ooooh, now whenever I think about it I'm going to tweet at you. =D Hopefully it'll move up to the top of that list of WIPs!

[lucifuge-5.livejournal.com]

You're SO adorable, O! *huggles you*

[osaraba]

\LUCE/

*huggles you back* I'm glad you think I'm adorable! I think all the "you knows" are probably more adorable in person. /o\

[cloudlessclimes.livejournal.com]

you are lovely! and I just recently found both parts of that baseball fic and really enjoyed it. <3

[osaraba]

Ahahah, omg thank you! <3 al;sdkfjsalfdjl Isn't that baseball AU fic the most awesome?! *_____*

[akamine_chan]

You sound just as awesome here as you do in real life. Love listening to you talk about Spencer. *twirls you*

[osaraba]

<3333 *twirls you back* Ahahaha, I'm glad you think I sound awesome! <3333

And Spencer is pretty easy to talk about-- what an interesting, fascinating, silly boy he is! *___*
