Speaking as in talking out loud, maybe with funny voices for some characters. Karkat sometimes made my throat tired after long rants, and my attempts on the female characters probably weren't particularly convincing if I had tried them in public. Dirk was the only character I just spoke without any inflection. Just wondering how weird I am in relation to the rest of the fanbase  |

I never do that, though I'll occasionally find myself thinking the dialogue in my headcanon voices for each character.

I never say anything out loud, but I "hear" the words in my head as I read them. That said, all the voices come out sameish when I think them, as me hearing them is really just an extension of the way I think in general: by "hearing" my own thoughts. (Well, not like literally hear them; it's hard to explain.)

I once did an audition video to play Gamzee in Let's Read Homestuck. In it I did Gamzee's text from his first conversation with Karkat in Hivebent, and the first conversation after he went sober. Since then, every time I reread those conversations I almost automatically hear my own voice speaking Gamzee's lines in those two conversations. Other than that, not much. I mean, there's some memorable phrases that I sometimes say out loud in kind of what I think the character's voice would sound like. For example "Fly Pupa flyyyyyyyy!", "IT KEEPS HAPPENING", "can't it be MOTHERFUCKIN BOTH THINGS", "PUT THOSE THE BACK DOWN", "Because stupid, I'M DEAD!", and "Graveyard stuffers". |

The only time I ever read aloud was when I wanted to hear what Dave's nerdy rap would sound like It did sound as stupid as you'd think |

Sometimes I'd read the narrator voice, I imagine. My headcanon voice for Caliborn came from me voicing him out loud, something I otherwise never did. When his first pesterlog with Dirk in A6A2 came up, for some reason I started screeching all uu's lines in the most intense voice. It was completely random, but I voiced the entire conversation like that and it kinda stuck for me. How surprised I was when that monstrous voice seemed a perfect match as the character was revealed to be a young Lord English.
These days, I don't think I'm actually a match anymore for the voice, which is ironic. Either my voice can't get as high and rough as it used to be able to, or the voice got rougher and higher in my head over the years.

My voice got real tired when he took over the story.  |

Oh, yeah. Karkat's voice in my head is sort of similar, but more inflective. Caliborn sounds like an angry robot. And over the years as the story progressed, I also deepened Caliborn's voice gradually, as I figured he was aging into adulthood throughout the long course of his quest. I toned that down in retrospect, though, it's not nearly as overt in my head now.

I admit that when I read the dialouge in my head, I don't even read it in a voice that I headcannon. I just read it without really thinking, like when I'm reading a book lol.

I found that it was actually pretty hard for me to actually absorb the text while just reading it in my head, but if I read it out loud I could make more sense of it. (I am mostly referring to the longer chatlogs and memos)
