i'm sorry there's so many pictures, i was just so happy with this area and i wanted to show you guys
#ts3#ts3 world#ts3 scenery#torneskär#still struggling with community lots though#it shouldn't be this hard to build but i think landscaping is more my thing and i although i look a lot at buildings around me constantly#and i think architecture is so interesting#i just seem to hit a wall with building things like libraries and laundromats and police stations#then again i do know how to just build fishing shacks which if you visit an island along the swedish west coast communal services will just#have moved into existing fishing shacks#and stuck a sign on the door#you'll find the supermarket in a red lil fishing shack you know?#so this isn't really about architecture but about making it believable i guess#and i need to figure out how developed the island is#like should it even have the military lot#and the sports arena#i think maybe not#ts3 caw

every day I am shocked the Midwest accent is real
#I just didn't KNOW that many people who had noticeable midwest accents until I like. moved here.#though my grandmother was originally from minnesota before that side of the family moved to washington when she was small#and you could occasionally hear it in certain words#(one of many scandinavian-american families that went 'this weather sucks' and moved from the midwest to the west coast)#I have a pnw accent which is one of the lesser-known regional american accents#I don't know if it's still very strong but at one point it was noticeable enough that people kept commenting on it#in a 'what the fuck is that' kind of way because most people don't know the pnw accent exists#but I also confuse people because I lived in the South for so long#I don't have a southern accent but I do have some dialect quirks that have been picked up over the years#the people who have been most confused about my accent have been canadians from bc lol#the bc accent is very very close to a washington accent but not identical#then I said 'y'all' and they gave up and went 'where...are you from. what is that.'#(this is a true story)#I also now say parking deck which I *think* is a georgia thing? or that part of the south anyway#I never heard it before I moved to atlanta#your girl

"Jason." Leo's voice rang through the other side of the telephone, breathless and airy as if he ran for miles and miles until he inserted the quarters, dialed his number, then called.
Jason waved off Nico, pointing to his phone held to his ear, gesturing that he'd catch up once the phone call was to end. Jason shoved his free hand into the pocket of his jacket and leaned against an office building with a smile gracing his face. "You took so long to call, idiot."
Leo laughed, warming a fast beating heart and overran the electricity that surged and powered his body and brain with heat. Even in the cold temperatures of New York, Jason had forgotten all about the icy sensation pricking his nose and cheeks. "I know. The bus got here late and it wouldn't even stop by the booth. It robbed me of my money too, you know? What bullshit is that?"
He huffed out a laugh. "You called in time because I completely forgot to charge my phone before I left the apartment. I would've missed your call." Jason scratched his cheek, lowering his head to glance down at his shoes and tapped the tip of it against the concrete. He cleared his throat, nerves building in his stomach and swallowed. "Are you...are you coming tonight? To Nico's birthday, I mean."
He heard a groan then a faint smack that could only imply Leo slapped his hand onto his forehead. "I'll be there but don't tell him. Gotta have the best gift for last as a surprise and all that. I'll be there, promise. Listen, I gotta get going. Piper should be here with the car in a few minutes-"
"No, yeah, I'll, uh, I'll see you tonight."
They both had said their goodbyes and as Jason glanced at the screen of his phone, it shut off. He watched the loading circle for a few seconds until it went entirely black and he sighed.
He hadn't seen Leo in months, traveling overseas with Annabeth for their studies since the end of summer but he was overwhelmed with anxiety. They called, of course, but hearing the one person he loved for years over the phone was nothing compared to seeing him in person after an annoyingly, agonizingly long while.
Jason placed a hand over his chest, near his heart as he started to walk down the sidewalk to meet Nico and inhaled sharply. He's just a friend, Grace. Nothing more, nothing less.

the thing is that I would do the East Coast (esp. NYC/Philly) for a year or two for a postdoc or visiting professorship or whatever. but I don't want to get stuck there and unfortunately in this field the opportunities skew very heavily toward the East Coast and the South
#for settling permanently i'd really much prefer the west coast or co/nm#maybe certain midwest states but idk. i don't know the midwest very well even though i almost accepted a phd offer there

I wanna know if Anton's va/creator had any specific regional accent/dialect in mind when deciding on his voice. Bc it sounds like there's maybe Something distinct there, but I can't for the life of me tell what it is. It may even be nothing.
#it's like... east coast or southeast maybe???? idkkkk. all I know it's Not west coast (imo).#idk how much of it is just his (anton's) natural voice and how much is a subtle (US) regional accent#I just really like his voice. it's a little gravelly and it's got a little bit of twang to it. warm and kinda brassy and rich#drops a lot of g's and r's at the end of words. uses a lot of informal contractions.#if any of you are good at recognizing that kinda thing you should tell me 🥺#though I guess that's not like... a voice people know off the top of their head lol#plus it's not really noticable in his in-game sfx. but it IS in the silly live action steam trailer and that one bit of unused dialogue#tbh I'll probably rb this from myself with some of his voice lines attached tomorrow anyway#just bc I want them on this post. bc I like his voice and want an excuse to post it more#but for now I should sleep. I said I was gonna almost two hours ago oops#roz posts#♡: 🔨🎰🥃
