Shadow Fit I Crocheted For The Movie

Crochet skirt commissioned by one of my friends... first time working with metallic yarn.

ASMR RANT: My thoughts after binging Saku’s, Escaped’s, and Scythe’s channels

Next

*slams down my files on the three of them* I finished my run, the fixation is over, they have power over me NO LONGER! I’M FREE-

*sees notification for new upload, immediately grabs headphones* Heyyyyy, how’ve y’all beennnnn…

(Very long rant under the cut, turn back nowwww-)

Saku: (the KING- MILORD- MAJESTY-)

Mental state after finishing binge: *entangled in a net made of a significant amount of lore, dangling from several cliffhangers I’m waiting to be resolved*

Favorite series: The Noble Trials

Series I thought I’d dislike but ended up loving: The Noble Trials (I was ignorant but I saw the light)

Random notes:

Second VA in this community I subbed to, first to introduce me to lore-based stories and world building in ASMR.

His range. Seriously, I was blown away by how diverse his characters are. When I went from listening to Isaac and Elias to Cevyk and Dontis, I honestly could not believe it was the same person.

Speaking of Cevyk, Saku’s world building also amazed me. Especially when I’m listening to Cevyk’s audios or The Noble Trials. This man just has new realms, plus languages, PLUS hierarchies and cultures floating around in his mind. AND he made a transcript of the Episode 5 debate. I love learning about that level of creativity in people so much.

And this technically goes for all three of them so I’m just gonna get it out of the way- I love the amount of effort they put into their work BESIDES their acting. The soundtracks, the sound effects- all of it helps add that extra bit of immersion and helps me see the scene more clearly in my mind.

Escaped: (freaking Escaped.)

Mental state: *sobbing, actually crying, tears are literally dampening my squishmallow one day- is wheezing and gasping for air because she’s laughing so hard the next*

Favorite series: … it’s a tie between Blue Infinity and Der Wolfsjäger

Series I thought I’d dislike but ended up loving: Slash and the Basher

Random notes:

The angst. I thought Saku was bad. I thought NORA was bad. Escaped might be a D-list villain, but he’s an A-list angst maker. Like Nora made me cry, but he didn’t have me weeping for 10 minutes. However, the angst always has a purpose, fits the story, and adds another layer of depth, so I do like that... BUT STILL-

I reallyyyyyyy love the way Escaped writes romance. The confession scenes for his characters feel super genuine. AND I love how he takes into account how long the characters have known each other, really appreciate that detail.

The amount of times I have gasped, shrieked, clapped a hand over my mouth, clutched my pearls, side-eyed the screen- the comedy and writing in these audios is so freaking good, I love it.

I really like how you can easily imagine each of his series in a different form of media- whether it be a comedy TV series or a two-hour long movie I’d ruin my sleep schedule to watch.

Scythe: (don’t even get me STARTED HAHAAAAA-)

Mental state: *limping a little, heavily bandaged, still a little blood seeping from a few cuts, has THE biggest grin on her face nonetheless*

Favorite series: Demon Hunter, War of the Witches, or Lullaby

Series I thought I’d dislike but ended up loving: Lullaby (JAYJAY, MY CHILD, MY PRECIOUS ANGEL-)

Random notes:

He was the first VA that made me sub in under five minutes. Soooo… yeah, he definitely captured my attention. I absolutely ADORE the intros to the audios and the fourth-wall breaks. Creators interacting with their characters is one of my favorite tropes to see lol.

Again. WORLD BUILDING. L O R E. ALL THE FREAKING LORE AND HOW IT CONNECTS AND- how. How do you guys honestly have this in your brains, how do you come up with this stuff, HOW. Anyway, I think that’s why Scythe’s channel was particularly rewarding to finish… knowing that everything is part of a larger story and getting to see it unfold was soooo cool to see.

These were some of the BEST fight scenes I’ve heard so far in this media. So I’m always doing some other activity when I’m listening to ASMR cuz it helps me focus, but the fight scenes and other tense moments had me frozen, like I was locked in. Literally had me on the edge of my seat and I enjoyed every minute of it.

The horror. Absolutely perfect. Like Scythe and Saku know how to do horror, because I love watching horror movies but some of their audios made my stomach do flips. It was amazing. And the amount of monsters and mythics Scythe brings to the table ughhhhh, I LOVE IT-

Again. Range. I love how he’ll go from chill, sweet Father Light and Siren to screeching, howling demons and entities. Coolest thing ever.

The collabs with Ms. Kittenish, she is wonderful and also beautifully terrifying, I hope you guys have a happy relationship for a very long time.

ALSO HIS SINGING?!?!?! HELLO?!?!?! HE’S AMAZING!!!! I can’t stress this enough, I love hearing people sing in audios, and Scythe is so freaking good RAAAAAGH-

Um… thank you guys for telling your stories and showing your creations. 2024 was rough for me, especially the last half of it. Finding your channels helped give me something to focus on, something to distract myself with it, something to look forward to. Plus it made my winter break WAY more fun XD

Honestly, if I could just talk to the people I admire (just creators I admire in general- there’s a lot like this-) for like 10 minutes, just to see how they think, I’d walk away happy. I love the fact that people like this exist, because I’m always wondering what goes on in another’s brain. Here, I can catch a glimpse of your imaginations.

Also, now that I know about y’all, I have a way to incentivize myself for this next semester! I can use your audios as rewards for studying or doing well on a test, or if I just need a break (Biochem major, almost done, but BRUH- science is no joke-)

Again- thank you guys so much.

Best of life, luck, and health to you allllll,

-Nyx 🖤🐈‍⬛

No one asked for this but ALSO *yeets list of favorite audios at your head-*

YouTube

ASMR favorites

I shall free myself from their curse eventually... but for right now it's very comfy here.

Okay I've readjusted my rankings:

Made me tear up and take some deep breaths: ZsakuVA, Nora ASMR

Made me ugly sob for two or more minutes: Escaped Audios, Scythe Audio, Good Boy Audios

The comfort VAs: Mage Bunkshelf, Capital M Audios, Fern VA, Obsidian Lantern

However I think Mage has the power to leave the comfort ranking and quickly join one of the other two categories- they have power, I can sense it-

Final conclusion, be wary of anyone with "audio" in their username-

OK OK OK OK SO-

I MADE IT TO THE CRYSTAL IN PRESSURE-

I'VE NEVER GOTTEN THIS FAR BEFORE-

MY BESTIE WAS WITH ME TOO SHE TOOK THE FIRST PIC

I think I died to Death Angel or Blitz after getting the crystal BUT I'M STILL REALLY HAPPY I MADE IT THIS FAR

My favorite part about being a Biochemistry major is seeing just how bad the lab materials I need to work with are-

"All right, this is... 'cobaltous acetate tetrahydrate', now that's a name... what's the safety data sheet look like-"

acute oral toxicity

carcinogenicity

reproductive toxicity

4 other things that would give my mom a heart attack if she knew what I working with-

"... Right, don't be stupid in lab next week-"

Also me this week-

"Ok, 35 milliliters of 12M HCl, got it HOLY FRICK I FORGOT YOU HAD FUMES-" *moves glassware further back into hood to finish measuring, hurries back to my own hood after* "Ok, now to add you to my solution-" *toxic gas quickly forming as by-product of reaction* *already had hood sash as low as it would go in preparation* *still had my heart pounding out of my chest*
