UNCHAINED MELODY:
Create filks with your team's theme song.
Point value: 35 points for each player who contributes.
BUY YOURSELF FLOWERS:
Listen to an audio fanwork of yours and write yourself a comment of all the things you love about it. You don't have to share it, but you could—it would probably make a pretty good self-rec!
Point value: 20 points per comment.
BE HERE NOW:
Sit down to record an audio fanwork without having done any pre-planning for what you will record. Choose the fandom and story only after you are all set up to record. Follow your whims in that exact moment! Choosing off a pre-made list is okay, but it must either be a list you created before this challenge began or a list created by somebody else.
Point value: 35 points for each player who contributes.
NICK OF TIME:
Finish and submit an audio fanwork you began before this round of Voiceteam started. The work cannot have been previously submitted for Voiceteam points.
Point value: 35 points for each player who contributes.
Thank you to carboncopies for suggesting this challenge!
IN THEIR SHOES:
Record something featuring a favourite thing (ship, character, trope, audio format, story element) of one of your team members. The team member in question may not contribute to this work for points.
Point value: 35 points for each player who contributes.
Thanks to Jetainia for this challenge idea!
From Mystery Box 2020
INSPIRED BY:
Create a fanwork inspired by an existing audio fanwork made by someone on your team. Your fanwork could be audio, visual, a poem, acting out a scene with hand puppets, or whatever you want.
Point value: 20 points for each player who contributes, +20 points if it requires significant time, effort, or energy on your part.
From Voiceteam 2021
BACK UP YOUR JUNK:
Choose 10 of your already-posted audio fanworks and add links to one other hosting website to extend longevity of the fanwork. (If you haven't posted 10 podfics, you get the points for adding additional links to all the ones you have posted.) Bonus points for every 5 podfics you back up beyond the original 10.
Posting a fanwork that has been submitted for Voiceteam but not yet posted is a valid interpretation of backing up that fanwork.
Point value: 30 points for the first set of audio fanworks backed up. +10 points for every 5 additional audio fanworks backed up.
Thanks to Jocunda Sykes for suggesting this challenge!
From Mystery Box 2022
TALK BACK:
Either live-listen to or live-record an audio fanwork with at least one other Voiceteam player. Then co-record some kind of live audio response to the audio fanwork you just experienced together. The audio response must be at least 5 minutes long and could be a discussion of the story, a notfic prequel/sequel/story that happens between scenes, a reaction to the podfic itself, or something else.
Point value: 25 points for an audio response to a shared listening experience. 45 points for submitting a shared recording experience plus audio response.
From Voiceteam 2023
YOUR MISSION, SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT:
Complete your team's mission. Bonus for guessing other teams' missions. Bigger bonus for keeping your own mission secret.
(You will find your team's mission ten minutes from now in your team channels. You know where.)
Point value: 35 points for each fanwork submitted that contributes to your mission. If your team correctly guesses another team's mission, every team member who contributed to your team's mission earns 10 points. If no other team correctly guesses your team's mission, every team member who contributed to the mission earns 50 points.
This challenge is taking the place of the Mod Dare in Round 3.
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY:
Combine two or more previous Voiceteam challenges.
Point value: Base of 20 points for a non-audio-fanwork project that combines at least two challenges, or 35 points for an audio fanwork that combines at least two challenges. Bonuses of +10 points if the project combines at least five challenges, +15 points if it combines at least ten challenges, or +20 points if it combines at least fifteen challenges. (Bonuses do not stack.)
Thanks to Schittposting and SerenaEW for inspiring this challenge. And happy fifth Voiceteam anniversary to us all!

I think like half the reason I'm posting because I'm like "oh good I don't need to write a real post about first two episodes of the Murderbot show, I can just point at
hafnia's post and go: yes! that!"
(The show's good, I'm delighted by the vibe of it, the overall aesthetic is excellent and I love all the characters. Looking forward to seeing more <3)
Other things:
auctionsasthreatened is a fandom event (technically a multifandom fanwork exchange) that is taking all the mental/social energy I have to spare and I'm not even doing much for it. xD But it's fun! Love to see everyone get enthusiastic about making things for people! Love the lack of anonymity that means potential creators can squee about a creator's requests with the creator! Love the general atmosphere of "here is an excuse to make friends"!
It's starting to get warm enough that I'm like "curses I must debate the merits of blankets (weight/pressure) versus the drawbacks of blankets (overheating)". This is simply the way spring-into-summer works, I have solutions, I will also whine dramatically about it for like a month until my body adjusts.
Yesterday at aikido, during test prep class, I was challenged to actually remember all five of the koshinage we learn. (which, like: often people only learn one or two! but I was taught five, so!) Two of them are easy (in that we practice them ever), but three of them like... never come up without someone specifically asking about them. (I remembered one and half-remembered the other two, which is about what I expected.)
The thing about one of them (ko-goshi) is that it's exactly like o-goshi except that instead of doing it around the waist you do it around the neck. (This means that it's really easy to do if you know o-goshi? Because there's a basic throw, iriminage, that gets you basically into position; you just gotta move where your body is so that uke goes over your hips instead of taking a straight fall back.) I remember learning this and whining about it because I do not like throws that care about the neck like that! I also did it in my shodan test because I ended up in the right position and was like "well, I do know this, and I know my uke will gleefully take the ukemi". And then I haven't really done it since? But it's right there in my body still, so easy to do, and the thing I'm like "huh" about is that apparently doing it no longer makes my brain make sad stressed whiny noises? Which is nice! But idk when or why that changed/happened.

Sherlock Holmes: Come If Convenient by rudbeckia

![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
Fandom: Sherlock Holmes (tagged as both books and Granada)
Pairings/Characters: Holmes/Watson
Rating: E
Length: 13,317 words
Creator Links: rudbeckia
Theme: Angst with a Happy Ending, courting
Summary: Watson, finally pushed away by Holmes’s lack of regard for his feelings, has left 221B Baker Street and moved into his practice. Holmes is confused—he did nothing wrong! But when Holmes realises (because everyone who gives him advice tells him so) that he is to blame, he knows he has to do something meaningful to win Watson back.
Reccer's Notes: Watson gets tried of Holmes' mistreatment and decides to leave Baker St. Much angst in the beginning, but also a Holmes determined to get his Watson back, cue the wooing! I enjoyed the inclusion of side characters like Mrs Hudson, Mycroft and Lestrade, and there was also an original character, a woman doctor who works with Watson, that I greatly enjoyed. It is tagged as both books and Granada, but I pictured the Granada lads when reading it.
