Murder Drones: Overture Audiobook
MJ Schulstad || FreakTopiaVA for Serial Designation F
A maniacal member of L's squad. She's the little sister of her team, being the youngest and most energetic. She their hotshot aerial recon, as well as the team's medic and torture technician. It says something when you'd be better off dying to L or X's hands rather than ending up on F's dissection table.
F has a lot of inspirations, like Himiko Toga from My Hero Academia, Niffty from Hazbin Hotel, Mahito from Jujutsu Kaisen. Her voice carries a childish whimsy, full of bouncing energy and excitement. She's loyal to her teammates, but her proclivity for violence unsettles everyone around her.
CONTEXT:
- Line 1: F has been called in to assist with the interrogation. She gleefully drags in the wife of one of the prisoners, revealing her like she were on a game show unveiling a grand prize. F has been waiting the whole time for this moment, and she makes it known immediately.
- Line 2: Other Disassembly Drones like to use "disassemble" instead of "kill". F is no such drone. She fully acknowledges their work for what it is and owns it. She wishes the others did, too. It's more fun when you're honest.
- Line 3: The interrogation has ramped up, and L has okayed the torture of the prisoner's wife to coerce information. F is now threatening to cut off the wife's legs, knowing she can survive without them. After all, the prisoner doesn't need to be in one piece to be alive. She's savoring this.

(excited) Look who we've got behind door number three!
(whining) "Disassemble" is so sanitized! "Kill" is easier to say... and more fun.
(threatening, giggling) Can I take both of her legs, L? She doesn't need those to function.
Nice job! You had good energy that captured the childish whimsy and sadism of the character. The elevated pitch was also a good way to communicate her role as the squad's "psycho little sister".
Thank you! I see them having such childish behavior or demeanor, but also being scary and serious at the same time. So I tried to incorporate those two!
The second version of Line A is a good sweet spot for the pitch. I also loved the second take for Line C.
