*wonders what'll happen* *coughs* Reaver's immortal...and he has a cat stalker, who's infatuated with his hat.... >_> LOL XD I never noticed his accent. *giggles* Same. :/ My summaries are either boring or just weird. I hope you can draw again soon. =)

I opted out. They thought it would be a good idea to put me in a cabin of people who were all writing young-adult and romance.... >< Eeeerm, what's your username again? o.o I thought I had it right but when I checked it, it said that the user didn't exist. D:
Aaagh sounds like they might actually get along. At the very least Skye wouldn't mind him. -xxpanda- I find this worrying.
I pick up on accents quick ^^; I was confused at first because he was struggling between American and Irish and it came out sounding vaguely Russian. For the rest of the movie he just kind of seems to go back and forth, resulting in sporadic bursts of giggling on my part and strange looks from my brother.
I never know what's too little and what's too much in a summary ;_; Last November I was editing the summary throughout the entire month. I'm hoping I remain happy with this summary.
-hug- Thanks. ^^ *prods sketchpad hopefully*

D: Oh dear. I had that happen last Camp NaNo, but I didn't talk to my cabin-mates enough to mind. >_> It's I.Ravencrow. *hopes she still exists**wonders if she would know if she stopped existing* @_@ My story's called A Marriage of Inconvenience, if that helps to find me. ^^; LOL Why's this worrying? Ah. XD Sometimes I notice accents, but only rarely. And I can't name where they're from. XD Samt. T-T I hope you do, too. You're welcome. ^^ -tackleglomp-

It's definitely telling me you don't exist. ;_; Could you try linking me to your profile? I might be able to figure out something from that. *prods CampNaNo helplessly* Found you!!! It's because it switches the period to a hyphen in the link. ~_~ Darn you, links. Quit being confusing.
The idea of Skye getting along with anyone at all worries me.
lol, I love accents. I love doing accents. Probably why I'm good at naming them. Still can't do a Greek accent properly. ;_;

LOL Yay! =D *pokes links**found you, too* Ah. XD I can understand that. He seems like a BAMF in your exerpt. :3 =D Ditto! I just can't write them and I'm only good in talking in, like...one. ._.
I've been fretting about my friggen' sci-fi novel all day. I've got a ton of Fable stuff written and, allof a sudden, "OMG, how does time travel work? *stares blankly at sci-fi novel's blank page*"

I'll search for you too, Comma, when I've come back from this driving thing. Someone thought it would be a good ideato put me in charge of a car O.o Even though Dad just took me through everything bar actually driving away in our car I'm still shit-scared about it. And this is happening a year after most of my classmates started actually learning >.<
Aww, Rae, that must be annoying! -hopes she can keep on task with the fanfic- Mind you that was bound to happen sooner or later. I've hit problems as well, namely the' I can't write why do I even bother?' mood and my fingers have decided to make typoes in every other word. >.< As if real life distractions weren't enough I'm having very large muse problems. Seriously this makes everything that's gone before seem like nothing. He came bowling in, crying his eyes out going 'my son's gone! why has he left me? How could he do this to meee?!' I don't think my reaction of 'you mean that's only just happened? O.o' helped any...

Good luck driving! =D *wishes she knew how to drive* It is. >_< Mainly because, if it weren't for this friggen time-travel thing, I'd have so much more of the story written. Aww, I hate when I feel that way. =( It happens to me every NaNo. Oh dear. Any...erm...chance his son'll come back?

@rae: Thank you! Like most things I dread once I knew what to expect it was great fun. We were on an airfield with an access road through it so there was hardly any traffic but when a car did come the other way I was like 'I'm not keeping left enough!' so I kept too left and almost drove into a wheat field. And no, that's his son in Ithillien now until he sails. Could be worse though; he could easily nver have come back at all. xDawnie: Aww, I'm sorry to hear that -hug- Exams?

I need to get lots of writing done. ~_~ Was out yesterday, woke up late today due to a lateish night with a couple friends, and have a wedding to go to (that I'd really prefer not to go to) tomorrow. Why does my schedule ALWAYS do this when I want to write?!??! So, lots of writing today. Yes. And then possibly baking these later tonight. We'll, erm, see how that works out. Got put in another cabin full of nontalkative people. I think I'll try one more time and then I'm giving up. @ Rae: He's just asked me what a BAMF is supposed to be and whether it's a good thing. I'm not sure I want to handle this one. >.> I kind of talk in two accents o.o; Didn't realize it until a friend's sibling pointed out I have a weird mix of northeastern and southeastern in my accent. My brother inadvertently switches back and forth depending on who he's talking to, and when he's angry about something, which I find hilarious. @eli: I'm jealous. I haven't been driving in ages A friend's supposed to be helping me out with that soon, but we'll see how that goes. Nothing's ever seems to pan out with it. And I hit that 'I can't write so why even bother' block practically every time I open MS Word, lol. I feel your pain there. xDawnie: Understandable -hug- Hope you're doing well otherwise. ^^

@eli: You're welcome! ^^ I'm glad it went well. Hehe. Oh, I wish I could drive.... *sad her grandparents won't take her out* @comma: Wow, you're busy. LOL Erm, should I tell him? >_> Oh. ^^ Tbh...I'm not sure about my accent. ._. I can mimic people's pretty well, but...yeah. I think 've got some weird California accent mixed with some southern Arkansas accent and something else. XP My voice is weird. xDawnie: I hope college becomes less stressful for you.

I hate nail polish. Nail polish is the bane of my existence. It would be nice if I was counted in as one-of-the-girls occasionally so I could have gotten it done professionally, too. But noooo, I'm just the unpaid live-in babysitter and I have to do everything myself. *mumblegrumble* I don't even want to go to the freaking wedding, what the hell am I bothering for...should just show up in jeans and a t-shirt...*grumble*
@rae: I know. And it's like I'm never ever ever busy, until I start writing. I hate it. And it's okay, I explained. And he agreed. -_-; I still just think he's an arrogant jerk, but I've had to listen to him insult me every time he thinks I'm "slacking off" (i.e. any period of five minutes or more I spend not writing) for the past week and a half, so I guess I'm a little biased on the subject....
lol, Join the club ^^; I think a New York/South Carolina accent is about as weird as they come....

Nail polish is more trouble than it's worth, unless you're doing the whole nail one colour and leaving it. And just do enough so you aren't yelled at and nothing more, that's what I'd do in your shoes. -cuddleglomp-
I'm now trying to imagine your accents which is hard because I can imagine some US accents but very few DX. I really want to hear you guys talk! (that sounds kind of evil -cue evil laugh-) But then I always want to know what people sould like... Mine's boring and not strange at all DX

^ That's exactly what I'm doing, actually. And I'll be so busy blending in with the emptiest corner that no one should notice me anyway... >.> *doesn't do well in crowds and is excellent at rogue-like stealth skills*
Erm, mine would be somewhere between, say, Christopher Walken for the yankee side and Matthew McConaughey for the southern...? Uuuugh I tried so hard not to pick up the southern accent T-T Southern accent tends to equal people from other parts of the country assuming automatically that you're a close-minded moron. That's why I tend to avoid phonecalls and any kind of voice-chat at all costs.
I'm sure yours still sounds worlds better than mine -hug-
Gods this has been a terrible morning. So so so peeved with my brother. He's been acting somewhere between the ages of his sons all morning, and thusly I've been having to scold him more than the boys. ~_~ It's like I'm babysitting three children instead of two...

^ Designated wedding ninja Both their accents sound so nice! To me anyway I wouldn't say I'm a sucker for Southern US accents but I do tend to prefer them to the northern ones. But I see what you mean about the stereotypes, but then you get some negative stereotyping no matter your accent. Mine's your standard slightly posh southern/home counties accent, somewhere between Buckinghamshire and Oxford. Closest match is the actress Clare Thomas (seeing as she's kind of hard to find if anyone's actually interested she was in the show Young Dracula... which is epic win.) I think I sould horrible on the phone too; all fey and ditzy. My voice goes up 2 octaves when I'm on the phone I'm not even lying. That's really mean of him! Sorry, I have nothing else to say so have some ninjas. You may not be able to see them because they are ninjas but they are there.
