“Peace Talks” Audiobook question:

SerScot:
When did Ramirez develop a Southern instead of a slight Latino accent?

Conspiracy Theorist:
When James Marsters forgot it, or was embarrassed to do it as cultural appropriation.

I wondered about the latter.

Conspiracy Theorist:
I think the latter.

However, if that applies to Carlos character, it must surely apply to Toot and Lacuna. Just because they are “Little Folk” it is inappropriate to portray them with ridiculously high voices. They need to stand up and voice their displeasure at this misrepresentation (in their ridiculously high voices)

Basil:
I agree Marsters has changed the accent a bit. 

Originally, I would have made Ramirez' accent to be LA Latino, but more recently I'm getting a more East or South East Texas Latino. 

We Texans don't sound particularly southern to true southerners.  But what we sound like to Yankees, God only knows. 

P.S. I doubt cultural appropriation factors into it at all. And, in any event...  On behalf of all Texas, I grant him free reign and license to appropriate any Texan accent he pleases for any purpose whatsoever.  So say we all.
