Poll - Lexi Adopts an Accent

Added 2023-09-22 06:24:04 +0000 UTC

It is still active, but going to call it unless everyone suddenly is motivated to change their vote. Looks like Lexi is getting an accent/dialect.

Picking out some options that I thought would be fun.

I'm going handle this with a bit of a soft touch, like Stephanies. Largely represented in a different font and color. With certain words and phrases and spellings peppered in to help solidify the feeling.

The main idea is to push her out of her comfort zone. She also has a lot of dialogue that you need to read for the story, so I'm not going to go full Gambit or Rogue on this making it difficult to follow. On that note something like Cockey Rhyming Slang isn't hitting the options as that would be nearly impossible to understand. Same with what ever Brad Pitt in Snatch's accent is supposed to be.

I think we will go with 6 options. 3 American accents and 2 international, but still english speaking, accents. One european general.

I'm also eliminating Californian/Valley Accent, for various reasons. Some of the word uses I kind of slip in as-is.
