[holmesticemods]

Title: Podfic of The Glass Half Full, by Garonne
Recipient: garonne and phoenixfalls
Podfic Reader: sanguinity
Verse: ACD Canon
Characters/Pairings: Holmes/Watson (unresolved), Mary/Watson
Rating: G
Length: 2,524 words, approx 18 minutes
Summary: Nothing but unspoken words and unspent passions, declarations never made and caresses never given.

Holmes and Mary Watson have an after-dinner conversation about Watson.

Podficcer's Notes: Phoenixfalls requested a podfic of their own work or a work they've recommended. After their recommendation reminded me of Garonne's poignant "The Glass Half-Full," I trotted over to Garonne's journal to obtain permissions, only to discover that they, too, had requested podfic! So this is a joint gift for the both of you. I trust you'll share nicely.

Thanks to REDACTED for beta and REDACTED for Brit-listening.

Oh what a treat this is! I adored Garonne's fic when I first read it, and your podfic is such a wonderful way to rediscover it! Poignant is just the right word for the story, and you delivered that emotion just perfectly, for Holmes and for Mary. I love this, thank you so much!

Isn't it a sublime story? I'm glad you felt I did it justice; it'd be a shame if someone came away from the podfic not feeling how lovely that story actually is.

Thank you for the opportunity to make things for you, and the rec-list of delightful things to choose from!

This was a lovely surprise :)
You have such perfect pacing - it was a real pleasure to listen to this.

And thank you very much for the rec, phoenixfalls!

I'm very glad it pleased you. It was a real pleasure to spend some time inside the story: the characterizations are so precise, and all three really do want the best for each other.
