Wednesday DE: The menacing tones of Mickey Mouse

[angry_friendship_wolf]

Carrying on from Monday's DE:

What's the least comforting or reassuring voice your character could hear?

Comments

[princeinexile]

Zuko: His father's or Azula's.

Zenigata: man, probably like any number of corrupt commissioner or partners he's had over the years. Lupin, half the time, though sometimes Lupin is very reassuring to hear. His son and eldest daughter.

Bastion: Priority message from the Berlin omnium. (If it has to be audio: Balderich von Adler, the late field commander of the Crusaders, shouting at the top of his lungs.)

Wilson: Maxwell is already pretty un-reassuring but when he's half transformed into a vaguely vulture-esque monster in the penultimate stage of Adventure Mode is peak un-reassuring.

Wormwood: Any of the city guards from Swinesbury, because the only reason their policing policy can't be described as "shoot first and ask questions later" is because guns are prohibitively expensive in the Hamlet region so they're armed with halberds instead. And between sunset and sunrise they don't even use the halberds and just hit things with their torches, often causing massive collateral damage.

Aradia: Vriska Serket narrowly beats out Jack Noir, because at least Jack Noir is an alternate timeline duplicate of someone she was on friendly terms with.

Cirava: Probably just... any Alternian Empire enforcer drone.

Thurlow: Mr Eaten, who is the very angry ghost of a Master of the Bazaar the others betrayed about a thousand years ago.

Late, but what is time but a social construct I don't have enough of?

Jon: ... spoiler, spoiler spoiler? SPOILER. EFFING SPOILER SPOILER. Ahem.
Though a creepy-ass Russian accent isn't appreciated either. Eff you, creepy Russian circus

Cecil: His double, Kevin - if a voice could be a polar opposite from Cecil's, it's Kevin's. Where Cecil's voice sounds like it could kill you, is an actual cinnamon roll, Kevin's sounds like an actual cinnamon roll, is definitely going to kill you. While smiling.

Klaus: Sir Reginald Effing Hargreeves. AUGH.

Mustang: King Bradley. Honestly, more people who should have been suspicious of a guy named King. It was a clue, folks.

Coulson: Loki. There's something deeply unsettling about that voice, even before Loki killed him. ('Killed' him. Whevs.)

Molly: Magneto. There is a reason she reacts very... expressively... to patronising older men.

Nebula: Thanos. For exactly the same as he's the most comforting voice to her. To a lesser extent, Quill: he's just ANNOYING. And she doesn't trust him around her sister.

Max: the voice of officialdom or (legal) authority; the kind of voice that pulls the mental levers of I know what you are and I can lock you up for it. Something, perhaps, like the sneering of one DCI Ronnie Box... Given his choice of occupation, this is perhaps not ideal for his mental health, but on the other hand absolutely fantastic for his acting skills.
