Ha.

Well, I actually had an idea that could fix this problem, but I figured it was a bad idea originally. At one point I considered having options at the beginning of Towers to specify who your Dragonborn was and what they did. As in, you could choose what race they were, which quests they did, what their name was, what their playstyle and weapons were, et cetera. For instance, if you chose a Nord female Dragonborn who chose to kill Paarthurnax and join the Stormcloaks and Dark Brotherhood, perhaps things would be a little different than if it was, say, a Paarthy-sparing Legion Companion. You could even specify what sort of impression they gave off - attractive, intimidating, eerie, friendly, etc. Although I still believe that it would make at least a passing degree of sense for anybody who might remember to just neglect to describe in detail.

Voice editing could work for the voices of past NPCs, though I don't know how well that can work. That seems to be our best chance. Or there's also the possibility of polling the internet for people who sound like Laura Bailey or can do a good Laura Bailey impression...but I don't trust that.

I believe referring to Serana as a fangirl was a bit of hyperbole.

"More than the average mortal"... there are many ways to describe a person more than usual. As a vampire, I personally would suppose that Serana pays more attention to the core elements of a person than to their body, since vampires live so long that their friends might turn into little gray prunes while still remaining the same person at heart. She also strikes me as the sort of person who would be very figurative, and she is certainly very private. These are the main reasons why my first instinct was to say that she wouldn't describe the Dragonborn in great detail to everyone.
