#This was so much fun lmao #Corey has a Weird set of speech mannerisms since theres so much dissonance between how they like to talk and how they were *taught* to talk #Much Nuance but their posture is super stiff unless you get them to actually chill bc theyll gesture wildly and fidget #and theyve been told off for it a lot so they tend to just cross their arms and hold unnaturally still while talking #theyre REALLY good at vocal mimicry and tend to adopt other peoples tone/ vocab #their voice is usually on the higher end of average and very scratchy #but they can do a perfect ortega impression #lots of thoughts about coreys voice #corey rook #fallen hero #oc lore
