Your lies of entertainment.

@Webmaster

-Spectre- Some do. But many of the greatest endeavours were conducted by motley crews.

Can't they just take place in a different country?

@Webmaster

-Spectre- Sorry?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Disdain>

Is representing them in stories a big deal?

@Webmaster

-Spectre- Authenticity. In border towns, other countries, and cities with many foreigners, it’s welcoming. The differences bring life to the story as much as differences in personalities do.

<Snipped quote by Disdain>

Crucial to what?

@Webmaster

To what makes them different.
-Spectre- And to representing them properly in stories.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Disdain>

How?

@Webmaster

Not just on the surface—different accents, different slang, different style—but how they view things, the way they do things, the jokes they make; it’s all different. It’s not always obvious, but it’s always crucial.

<Snipped quote by Disdain>

How different could they possible be?

@Webmaster

Crazy different.

*Shrugs*
I guess so.

@Webmaster

-Spectre- Every now and then we take jobs in other countries. It gives us perspective.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Disdain>

I don't see what you mean.

@Webmaster

-Spectre- Some customs which are perfectly normal in one country may seem unimaginably strange from a foreigner’s perspective.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Disdain>

How?

@Webmaster

-Spectre- Quirks are relative.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Disdain>

*Laughs*
I guess that solves that.

<Snipped quote by Ignacious>

I'm sure. How old are you?

@Webmaster

-Spectre- Being from another country also helps explain it.
