[podfic] Adventures in Truth and Texting, by fluxweed

Former Death Eaters are being targeted with a Veritaserum curse – it’s permanent, and makes victims speak aloud their every thought. Luckily, it’s easier to control when writing – and Hermione is trying to introduce Muggle technology to the wizarding world.

An advent fic featuring texting, identity struggles, and a Draco Malfoy who will literally not stop talking.
Podfic of Adventures in Truth and Texting by fluxweed.

Inspired by Adventures in Truth and Texting by fluxweed

Welcome to my 2025 Advent podfic! I left it really late this year and was worried I wouldn't be able to pull it off, and then I remembered that this gem of a fic exists. Thanks as always for listening; I'd love to know who's joining us this year, and I'm always touched to hear about what you're doing as you listen to this podfic (even though the chapters are _really_ short this year)!

I am so glad you found something that felt manageable to podfic this year! So excited for this fic too, since I'll get your character voices basically all the time, how great.

Happy first of december!

So happy when I got the notification and also when I listened to it. It was at the end of a long day. I made myself a cup of tea and a warm water bottle and listened to it as a treat before bedtime. :)

I’m here for it! Happy for the short fic as I listen in the morning while I’m having breakfast before my toddler gets up. I never know how long I have in the AM and I’m excited for this little advent treat. :)

Hello, I’ve been listening to several of your podfics (and collabs) and am severely enjoying your voices.

The things I do when I listen is most often drawing (fanart), working or hiking with my dog.

Happy December ❤️

I listened to this after wrapping presents for my third child's birthday tomorrow. It made me smile. Thank you for reading this.

  There are so many of these little things that I didn't notice until I was in the middle of recording and had to make an impulse decision. It's been a very fun process!

Lol love this!
Just listened to the last bunch of chapters. I am in love with one of my favourite tropes, The-Women-Know-More-About-Harry-Than-Himself.
This just accompanied me through the closed Christmas market while bringing back read library books. Very festive!

This made me chuckle, giggle and laugh. I listened in my parked car after coming back from a somewhat exhausting appointment, as a treat. I am impressed how your Draco sounds sooo much like Draco even though his texting skills at this point are all over the place.

My favourite part was how you said " AUnt Bella". I listened to it taking a small afternoon break before going grocery shopping.

You read the typos so well! Did you realise podficcing this specific fic would require you to read funny so much? :D
(Turns out: implementing listening to short chapters somehow feels harder so far? I am too used to only putting something on when my hands and eyes are busy. Now though I'm on the bus, and it feels very calming to look out into the dawn and just relax with this!)
