I haven't been able to record much lately as my recording setup has been interrupted, but more audios are on the horizon! thanks again to all who sent in numbered requests, I've been having a ball putting them together :)

Your request is just too alluring, I've got to get in on all the fun here. Voice/accent anon from before; hello again! The April fools audio made me ravenous for Sir Pace & your dear jester, Thistle, messing about. I think 1 leading into 10 would be darling. Mostly because I'm a sucker for poly behavior and that Thistle would have such a ball with bringing up his prince while fooling around. Plus, wouldn't the rhythmic sound of bells chiming but so fun to add in? -👁
hello again, welcome back :) glad to hear from you. I'm delighted to know you enjoyed thistle & pace's interactions, I think they're such an interesting match. all of that sounds lovely, and 1 leading into 10 is a very intriguing & creative combo. thanks very much for this request, I'm looking forward to putting it together. sláinte 🌷
omg PLEASEEE consider gospace with #3. i nearly blacked out when gos shoved his fingers down pace’s throat. i mean it could go either way but its soooooo good <3
your wish is my pleasure, anon. that's such a compelling starting point, I'd be glad to have goswin gag pace. tyvm for the request :)
Excited to see (hear?) Thistle messing with the poor dear ^w^ the two of them & Sir Kieran have my heart, they're such lovely characters <3
On that note, I have another suggestion/request 👀 perhaps Sir Kieran with... either 3 or 9, whatever gets the creative juices flowing better ^^ Not sure who else would be suitable alongside him, as I don't recall any of the other knights here being part of his court?
hope you have a lovely day/night! best of luck with the scenes :3
-🎭
I've just finished with thistle & nym script, and it is... well, truth be told, sometimes I find myself a little flustered while I write or work, and this was one of those times, so I'm excited for this scene. I hope it turns out well.
and thank you very much for the second request! happy to write more kieran scenes. I'll probably go with 9 for him, as I've gotten another request for 3. kieran is from a seperate court from dulcedram (I have a whole big map that connects their respective kingdoms and two others, the four all being neighbours) but I'm definitely willing to bend their canons in the name of having fun and making up sexy little scenarios.
ty again for the well wishes, I wish you all the best as well :) cheers
omg so many juicy choices from that prompt list 😵💫😵💫
perhapsss... 12 w/ Sir Nym & Thistle?
also how many are we allowed to send in? got another character in mind but I wanna figure out which prompt best suits him :3
-🎭
a wonderful combination, I would be delighted to put that together. and you can send in as many as you like, I'll try to fulfill them all :) thanks for sending this in, kind anon
let's play a little game, shall we, loves? I'm looking to shake off a bit of rust, so I've put together this little list of dialogue prompts.
send me any number from the list & a character (or two, or however many you fancy) from my roster here and I'll use these as warm ups to craft some shorter scenes.
anyone else is welcome to use these prompts as well, however they please:
———
1. "Oh, darling, you look an absolute wreck. Do you need a hand?"
2. "If you want something from me, you've gotta ask for it, and you best convince me it'll be worth my time."
3. "That's it—one more word out of your mouth and I'm gagging you."
4. "I'll show you how, and then you're gonna do it, okay? Don't be nervous. You'll do great. Just pay attention, yeah?"
5. "God, if you were any more pathetic I might actually start to feel sorry for you—but I don't think that's possible."
6. "You're putting me out of my wits, little thing. keep up like that, and I may not have the good sense to hold back."
7. "Oh? What, does that hurt? And what about this?"
8. "You are stunning beyond words... a well known truth to me already, sure, but if I had held any idea how beautiful you are stripped and undone, I would have had you like this much sooner."
9. "Just once more, please? You're so fucking good, I need you, please, just once more for me, love. I know you can take it."
10. "I can't believe you're into this. Look at you, you're already a mess and I've barely done anything yet, fucking pervert."
11. "If I didn't know any better, I'd think you were trying to bribe my affections with a gift like that."
12. "Awh, poor thing. Where's all that bravery gone, hm? No more clever little lines for me?"
———
(if you end up using any of these prompts feel free to tag me, I'd be happy to see where these sparks lead others)
will we ever hear Goswin and Pace use the L word in an audio? :)
I won't say one way or the other just yet, dear anon, but, without giving away too much, I did think it was fortuitous that this ask arrived while I was in the middle of working on a scene where there are some pretty significant confessions and heavy emotions shared between goswin and pace. so in short: perhaps :)
a quick scene test for bo & luca that I think turned out well.
contains: m/m, nb/nb, bdsm, dom/sub dynamics, whimpering, crying / dacryphilia, begging, gentle domming, denial, praise, talking through it.
their final voices are slightly different, but I still thoroughly enjoy the slice of their dynamic here, and I hope you will too. this one's up on soundg-sm as per usual. cheers!
(transcript below)
LUCA: [WHIMPERING AND GASPING]
BO: Luca, up here. Eyes up here. That's right. Keep your eyes on me. Right up here.
L: [HITCHING]
B: There's my good boy. Yeah.
L: [SHAKILY] Bo, please...
B: I know, I know sweetheart, but you're doing so good.
L: [TEARFULLY] Please...
B: Ah ah ah. Don't close your eyes. Keep your eyes up here.
L: [GASPING]
B: Right here. There, that's good.
L: [SOBBING]
B: Hey. You're alright. I've got you. Oh, I've got you. My good boy.
prince goswin gets sir pace alone to express his gratitude after the knight defends his honour. pace is conflicted and goswin goes a little mad with power.
contains: m/m, prince x knight, possessiveness, dom/sub dynamics, hierophilia/blasphemy, kissing/making out, fingers in the mouth, brief gagging/choking, groping, dryhumping, clothes tearing, dirty talk, orders, praise and degradation, knight objectification. 7 minutes total.
this one's for all my fellow toxic prince x knight enjoyers. available uninterrupted on soundg-sm.
(transcript below)
G: I can always trust you to defend me, Sir Pace. My most loyal, my most ruthless…
P: Goswin…
G: Hm?
P: I am not your dog. Tell me you know this.
G: Oh, vicious heart, are you not? You come to my beck. You guard my life with yours. You take every command like gospel, and you look at me with such unmatched devotion—
P: [GROWLS] Goswin—
G: Who am I to you, my knight? Remind me, lest we both forget.
P: [HESITATES] My prince. My lord.
G: That’s right. And you are nothing if not devout, aren't you?
P: [DAZED] …Yes.
G: And you want to please your lord, do you not?
P: [BREATHIER] Yes.
G: Down.
[PACE KNEELS IMMEDIATELY, THEN EXHALES, TROUBLED BY HIS OWN EAGERNESS]
G: [TRIUMPHANT] Good boy.
P: My lord… please. Tell me you understand.
G: You’ve given me little reason to deny the truth, Pace. If you did not behave like a dog, perhaps things would be different. But you cannot deny your nature, can you? [SMIRKING] A tamed beast.
P: [INTENSE] I am sworn to you, my lord, but I serve also my god, and the code of chivalry, and the knighthood, and—
G: And yet, here you are, kneeling for me despite your injuries, puffing and ragged, seeking me like fucking communion. [STROKES PACE’S FACE] Tell me, is your god so generous with you as I am? So merciful?
P: I—
G: And do you dedicate yourself nearly as much, nearly as eagerly in prayer as all those moments of worship you give to me, all those calls of your god’s name while offering your body to me?
P: I fear you may be losing your head, my lord.
G: [WILD CHUCKLE] All the times I should’ve had you in the stocks and let you in my bed instead… all of those times I invited you to such privilege, all the grace I bestowed upon you, all the forgiveness for your debasing, your disrespect, your-your gluttony… Did you confess them? Our days and nights spent closer than close? Have you begged your god’s forgiveness for losing your path? Or have you taken blessings knowing what stains, what messy artwork my hands have shaped upon you?
P: Prince Goswin, you are running mad with a sharp blade. Careful your recklessness does not see you impaled upon it—
G: [HARSHLY] One more profane word against me, knight, and I shall have a gallows crafted to your exact form. Heaven knows I know it well enough.
P: [HEAVY BREATH]
G: [CALMER, TOUCHING PACE’S NECK] Though… perhaps a collar would suit your neck better than a noose. You would wear it pretty, surely, though I hardly think it necessary. Everyone already knows you’re my hound, yourself included.
P: [GRUNTING AND HUFFING] You may be my charge, but my duty sworn is to this kingdom, and to honour and goodness—
G: Pace. [PAUSE, THEN LAUGH] That’s what I thought. [KISS] You nearly killed a man for me today, all because he spoke ill of me. I have never been more proud of you.
P: [BREATHY] You forget yourself, sire.
G: As do you, it seems.
P: This is not you. This bloodlust and blasphemy… something wicked has come over you.
G: [HUMS] And what does it say of you that you’re so aroused by it as you are?
P: You’re mistaken.
G: The rush of blood through you right now says otherwise.
P: [MUMBLE, LOST IN BREATH] There was plentiful excitement today. It lingers.
G: Show me, my blade. Give it to me.
[KISSING, GRABBING, STUMBLING]
[BED CREAKS, GRINDING, GOSWIN GIGGLES]
[BOTH MOANING, CLOTHES FUMBLING AND TEARING]
G: Ravenous thing—
P: Shut up and turn over.
G: Now, is that any way to speak to your lord?
P: Gosw—[CHOKES AND GAGS]
G: [HUMS, CHUCKLES] I see now why you’re always shoving your fingers in my mouth now. That’s fun.
P: [PULLS BACK, COUGHS, GLOWERS] If you want me to show you my excitement, sire, it will not be tame.
G: Nor would I expect it to be. I know you well enough by now, Pace. I know how you fuck, and how you like to play with control. [RUNNING HIS HANDS THROUGH PACE’S HAIR] But remember who holds the real power here, hm? The only reason any of this happens is because I want it, because I allow you the privilege to take me as you do, and I could rescind that permission just as easily and leave you to suffer adrift and lonesome.
P: I don’t think you could bear to do that. You’d be left lonesome too.
G: I’m the prince, Pace. I could have anyone I wanted. Right now, I want you, and only you, and I will give you what you ache for, but only because I want it, too—not because you steal it or mine it from me, not because you wrest it from me, not because you hold the power here, not because you deserve any part of it. Only because I want you like this. I want you. Take that gift with grace.
Most recent voice kink anon again. Yes, both asks were mine! I know it's common to use emojis to differentiate between anons, but I didn't want to be presumptuous. Attempting to cull ideas into a single ask made me miss something and i sent another. Did not want to get long winded and end up delivering you a novel. Your response was wonderful. Do not apologize for gracing me with so many of your precious words!!
As continuation from your points, I would say those that are not concerned with the history of the language or the possible harms are those most LIKELY to do damage. That kind of caution is healthy and respectful, especially when dealing with a language from a community you are not a part of and/or not fluent in. It is best to tread carefully. Such concern and thoughtfulness from you makes me think I've made a good choice in following your art.
Another thing, I'd no idea those wet noises were so painstakingly crafted. I always keep my ear out for them in your work because I'm such a sucker for the sound, but I will appreciate them even MORE so now.
welcome back! no worries about the sign offs, I don't really have a standard for that and leave it up to folks' individual preference. few anons here use emoji signatures, a few use other psuedonyms. you can do either or neither, whatever you please.
I appreciate your perspective on the matter of languages & respect. I will continue to do my best to take care and be thoughtful about how I navigate that and, as with anything, I am open to hearing about what people think and how I could do things better or differently should such a need or desire arise.
and to the last point: as a bit of behind the scenes, I use of a mix of foley I record myself and public domain found sound when doing sfx editing, and wet sounds are always something I record myself. it's a bit tricky to do in general, but it also varies a lot depending on the scene, and like percussion in music, there is a rhythm to it that requires attention and tweaking to get things to sound right, even if it isn't perfect. sfx for my audios in general take a fair bit of time (which I don't mind as I love doing sound design, but it does mean I need to find that time and it can become a bit wearing with long or complex scenes given the workload) but wet sounds in particular are difficult to get up to my own standards at least, lol. that said, knowing folks like yourself enjoy specific bits like that is really bolstering!
Call for voice kink havers??? Here here!! Accents will always do me in, but specifically other languages being spoken heat of the moment are. Killer. The slow learning over time of what some words may mean, what curses they lean towards, getting lost as the other person carries on without your ability to understand them. ESPECIALLY if they start throwing in teasing questions you cannot hope to answer as they are put in words you do not know. You only know it's jestful from the tone and utter focus on their task, you, lost in their world. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I'll always adore the Gaelic you weave into your work. Aaaalways
twin flames on this, you and I. linguistics kink has me in the palm of its hand. what a gorgeous scenario you've spun here.
I really like stitching other languages into audios. gaeilge is a very beautiful language and I enjoy getting to thread outside interests of mine into scenes. I am by no means fluent and despite how much I enjoy researching and translating I'm sure I make my fair share of mistakes. I did have some reservations about including bits of irish in audios, but I enjoy speaking it and if people enjoy hearing it, I think that's lovely.
I speak a bit of french, which I think could be interesting to use more (despite having a bit of stage fright, partially because I speak mixed dialects), and I've been writing scenes that also utilise some gáidhlig/scots gaelic and german (for sir pace and sir nym respectively). I'd love to work with dutch, welsh, and manx in a similar capacity but I'm less familiar with them.
I've also got a thilbo scene in the works that includes my best run at khuzdul, and I've developed (see: hodgepodged) more than one language of my own for fictional endeavours that I think would be interesting to crack into in a similar fashion.
at the end of the day I of course want to be respectful to languages I am not a speaker of, and I do worry sometimes about utilising other languages I am learning/researching in this way for that reason, though I realise actors do this all the time. really it's another limb of my fascination with and passion for linguistics more broadly. I deeply enjoy researching languages and the cultures and histories that shape them and, as you've so vividly and vibrantly described, anon, there are a myriad of compelling ways to include multiple languages in a scene.
went off on a bit of a tangent there, forgive me. in any case though I treasure your insight & appreciate you sharing your thoughts!
anonymous continues:
I know this isn't voice related but wet sounds are unfairly hot please never stop adding them in
very glad to hear they're appreciated. I also think they're sexy and add a lot of depth to a scene. they're one of the most tedious/labour intensive parts of editing so it's quite bolstering to hear they're worth it.
imagine you're a squire and your knight is coming back from the battlefield coated in blood and sweat inside their plate, and it's rank enough that anyone would probably be able to smell it if they got close enough, but you have the unfortunate curse of being a vampire, and god it's so potent you can hardly think, the sweat and the blood and the blood and the sweat, and it's all wrapped up in a nice little box for you, exhausted and barely standing and waiting for you to free it from its cage so it's heaving breaths can come a little easier, and you want to, god you want to let them loose, but you're afraid if you reveal even one inch of skin you won't be able to help sinking your teeth into it, and then guess who's head is going to be spiked on the castle gates, but you can't say no either, because it's your duty as a squire, and your knight is so tired, and in so much pain, and the only reason they're not begging is they've too much pride for it, but even that is wearing thin, it'd be both treasonous and cruel to just leave them, and you think you can behave, you're training to be a virtuous knight yourself after all, so you go, and you realize the steel's warm from their body heat as you place your hands over it, and the smell gets stronger as you step in close, and it's so good, so sickeningly them, and they're so helpless, and you're so hungry
honestly it's a mix of everything that I loved from it- if I *really* had to pick, I think the gag itself is a big one (may be the avid whump enjoyer in me, but I digress) which ties in with the pain vs pleasure ambiguity. the muffled speech from the gag and the whimpers too omg,, the lofi quality's fun too!
hope you have a lovely weekend as well! ^w^
hi again! thanks for following up, all very insightful. I'm also an avid whump enjoyer & I'd love to make more audios that lean further into that side of things. I'll make a note of these points & plan to put together an audio with that kind of vibe, I think it would be fun to do something like that again.
-literally just voice lowered and heavy, like they’ve gotten into my space and are practically breathing in my ear. Delicious.
-humming as a response
-when you can hear them losing control. Starting to breathe heavy, or swearing more, or hitching in the middle of a word. In “Fealty” when the prince says “I’m almost all the way in” with that hitch and grunt in the middle? Exactly that.
-a sudden growl or snarl to a usually smooth voice. Again, evidence of losing control.
-“yeah?” Need I say more.
-murmured praise, which might be just praise kink but a soft, smooth voice is Very Much a Factor
-when you can hear their voice break when they finish. I’m biting my fist right now.
-🗡️
all wonderful elements, thank you for such a detailed list. in particular I have to throw my hat in for humming, loss of control with heavier breathing/cursing/hitching, and "yeah?" mmm all of those are really lovely. and of course soft praise and breaking are timeless, especially paired together. always a treat to hear your thoughts, tyty.
