    Okay, that was interesting.

    Motly: Your monologue worked wonderfully with the violin solo in the background. Your sarcasm with the agent was perfect, too. XD But you handled the later, more terrifying moments perfectly too. Your were exceptionally intense when you needed to be. It's rare when you're the one being stalked instead of being the stalker, but you handle being the victim very well. But of course you get to go insane too anyway which is something you're amazing at. XD

    Dragonknighttara: You bounced off with Motly wonderfully as the agent. XD Great job overall. Was that you singing in the background there? You were terrifying as the siren, and so creepily seductive, reminiscent of Lust from FMA, only more monstrous.

    Very atmospheric and unnerving, Motly, with more than one startling moment throughout. Good, strong writing too. This was a nice thriller piece, very nerve-wracking. Your ambiguous ending had me go nuts, though. I hate it when that happens! XD

    Great work.
    I have Fate/stay night fandub scripts in need of a good home. Contact if interested.

    My LiveJournal is alive for the first time EVAH: Read it if you dare.

    I'm always up to something here and here. Feedback is always appreciated.

    I will absolutely mark this down as one of my favorite audio dramas. Granted, it is just a short little audio piece, I still find that this audio drama has precise execution and doesn't over-blow itself. It has charm, it has scare tactics, and you really know how to convince a person how scared they really are. I was listening to this on a surround sound system, so I was really spooked through the last half of this. Tara, you always know how to really grab a person in! Fantastic mixing, and scripting.

    Now, onto performances:

    Motly, as I have already said upon Skype, you truly have impressed me here. Your delivery was so fluent with the character, you gave him a charming, though sarcastic personality. I really felt like your conversation with Tara's character really had some chemistry. I felt that you were into this character. I honestly have no complaints or nitpicks. Fascinating, my friend.

    Tara, you were golden as well. You, along with Motly, just gave a certain chemistry to where I felt a connection. I felt like you two were really getting into it and associating with one another. Truthfully, I have no complaints on the parts of Leslie, as you just did a flawless, spectacular job. I can see that audio dramas are your forte! And the ghost? Oh hot damn, that gave me chills, and that's not very easy to do as I regularily nitpick at horror or thrillers.

    All together, this was a truthfully excellent audio drama with great execution and you both really pulled it off. I would love to hear more, if there can be spin-offs or sequels on upcoming Halloweens and whatnot. This really grabbed in me in and never let go.

    I...I love this.

    Normally I'd have more to elaborate on, but I really enjoyed every moment of this and find it difficult to nitpick at. It flowed well, you both performed well (nice narration Mr. Mottles McGoo), it was well mixed, and overall, you both did a knock-out job on this.

    Thank you all so much for your comments - we both had a lot of fun working on this and it's really flattering to hear this is so well received =D

    @ Rebelcheese: Yes, that was me singing! ... in the cement basement XD Honestly I was just making things up and the effects helped carry the overall tone wonderfully. I had way to much fun playing with some techniques I don't normally get to try so that was really a blast and I'm glad it worked too! I apologize for the ambiguous ending though, but I guess that makes it all the more effective? (Or we can just go with I don't know what the heck happens after that excuse too ahaha)

    @ Instra Classic: I am so floored you enjoyed this that much - I really appreciate your comment ^^ AND YOU HEARD MY PANNING ON SURROUND SOUND DID YOU?

    - There probably won't be more to this though - it's definitely intended as a one. Unless the muses grant *me* a little wisdom otherwise. Who knows, maybe Leslie can drive up there to find out what happend too... XD

    On the other hand, Elysium Project is still going strong if you're looking for a continuing project /shameless promotion.

    @ Apa: I'm floored you have nothing to nitpick on, but thank you so much for listening and commenting <3
