Portal 2 Blue Sky Fanfic Audiobook
FineSpecimenRetrieved for GLaDOS
GLaDOS is an AI, often the head of Aperture. She is malicious, sinister, witty, passive aggressive, yet still polite and very intentional with her words. Her voice is robotic yet still smooth, is slower-speaking and deliberate. She is a foil of Wheatley.
This video serves a good model as to how he should sound: https://youtu.be/xoJ38_erM30
If you are able to provide the robotic voice effects, please provide both the raw audio and the processed version in your audition. This is not required however, so if you are unable to do so, do not let that stop you from auditioning.
Note: This is a semi-large role. While this is just a proof of concept to determine if the full capacity of the fanfic can be done, it is preferred that you can maintain the role throughout the 15 chapters to sustain consistency should we go forward with the full breadth of the project. If you have questions regarding this, please message me privately.
[In Portal 2, when GLaDOS is awakened and see Chell.]
GLADOS: Oh… It’s you. It’s been a long time. How have you been? I’ve been really busy being dead. You know, after you MURDERED ME. Okay. Look. We both said a lot of things that you’re going to regret. But I think we can put our differences behind us. For science. You monster.
[GLaDOS is in radio contact with Wheatley after he is hit my a meteor, and is now plummeting back towards Earth.]
Oh, I'm fine. Things have really improved since I regained control of the facility. You know, after you took it away from me that time? Stupidity-based reactor core meltdowns are down by one hundred percent, and morale is up too, so that's nice. How are things with you? [GLADOS interrupts WHEATLEY before he can speak, ignoring him entirely.] Anyway, I understand that you're choosing to die horribly on impact with the Earth's surface because you feel bad about what you did to me, and I just wanted you to know that I appreciate the gesture.
[Wheatley has fallen back to Earth and survived, but is now in the literal grasp of GLaDOS again, as she punishes him for his treatment of her in Portal 2. Here she is sadistic. Please do not speak for Wheatley.] Note: "Metal ball" is an insult in reference to Wheatley.
WHEATLEY: What-No! Nonononono! No-ah-no, please! Nonono, please, please, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
GLADOS: Oh, I believe you. I just don't care. This isn't about revenge, metal ball. We both know you are a pointless, insignificant little moron who has never done anything right. Luckily for both of us, I can work with that. You see, listening to you just now when you thought you were going to die in a molten, agonizing fireball, I realized that you have one invaluable attribute. You can express pain.
I like that in a person.
