You know there’s a problem when you can’t get a speech across for the fact that half the nations were gazing at you with the expression of puppy dogs, as though realising for the first time that ALL you were made up of were lots and lots of bones.. Bloody hell... “Dealing with our current economic crisis, I propose we should-“ “Oh, just listen to the way he clips his ‘c’s!” Some random nation squealed in a whisper, though it sounded like it belonged to the more feminine of nations. England was poised to stare a bit wearily across the conference table before him, not more than a little freaked out at hearing such a snippet of conversation.
However, he was English and he was going to do this properly. He tried to blatantly ignore any more such ‘noises’.

Fair enough. *shrugs* I might write something involving Yorkshire that's more 'recent' if I manage to come up with something that actually resembles a plot. So far I've just got an assortment of random 'facts' including; Yorkshire and his brother Northumberland are England's older brothers, they're the only former kingdoms/current counties still around (I might change this) since given the attitude of the average Northerner I decided that they'd be 'most likely to do a Prussia', Yorkshire has a pickaxe that has more or less the same status as Hungary's frying pan or Russia's pipe, and he once threatended to feed Flying Mint Bunny to his dog (in his defence, he was a)justifiably upset and b) a bit worse for wear at the time).

Oh god, this was funny as hell. America curled in fetal position and wailing was hilarious, and Australia actually understanding him and recognizing the accent is A+. Spain just killed me, though: “… Amigo, is he going pirate again?” That was 98% "inane comment" and 2% brilliant subconscious memory of Captain Cook, yeah?
(Aw, and he remembered that one invisible guy for once. :D)
... Augh, Kiku's master plan! D: What the hell? <3<3<3
I actually had to look up a few things on it though because i'm a dunce and this is what i get for going cosmopolitan with americans for four years cry.
Mwahaha, our evil master plan is working! We will assimilate you yet! ... Or not.

This Australian, who loves accents, who was also the thirding anon, is in love with you right now. Australia would understand it. And America's freak out was an epic visual. ♥♥♥

...and here I thought Cook had to do with cooks in movies... though at the same time the only real Yorkshire accents I can think about are those in The Secret Garden (ohgodI love that book....)
Though the Whitby amuses me because I'm from Whitby, Ontario, Canada. I should've known it was a British name....
I'll be honest... I have problems imagining Arthur with this accent offhand. I think I need to hear it more often before I can really get it. In my head, somehow, it seems to be more alligned with a woman's voice, though that makese little sense really.... XD
I do like the headcanon that countries can switch between their national accents, though. ^^ It's an interesting concept, and one that I think would be fun to exploit. ^^
Eh, just go look up some youtube videos on a yorkshire accent, try sheffield definitely, or somewhere in south yorkshire. And ffffft, I was typing this imagining him with something along the lines of my DAD'S voice, so. xD
And Whitby is famous for being where Captain Cook set sail to discover Australia, but it's also famous for Whitby Abbey, rumoured to where Dracula resides to this day. Go look it up, it's a lovely seaside town. ^_^
Oh, authornon, I think I love you for this. It was just...brilliant XD
A Yorkshire accent was PERFECT for this fill! Well done on managing to write down how it sounds, by the way - I could understand it all just fine, and imagining England speaking like that was just gold XDD The actual stuff he was saying was genius as well - it's like he knew no one could understand him so he didn't even bother trying to be professional. PFFT XD
The other nations' reactions were amazing. Especially Australia being pleased because he recognised it, and France just rolling his eyes. I liked that especially because it's sort of my head!canon that England regularly uses more indiscernible accents with France, just to piss him off XD America's mini-breakdown and then him actually liking it in the end were brilliant too XD
The best part, though, was the end. Oh, Japan XDDD You take anglophilia to whole new levels...good luck with Operation Obtain Accent
I had fun being able to write a semi-crack drabble. writing it phonetically was HORRIBLE, but by the time I'd finished I was thinking in a yorkshire accent. xD It's nice to get back to roots sometimes.
mind asking whereabouts you from? and. it's no problem. it was fun to write!
I'm from Wigan, if you know where that is (i.e. near Manchester). But I was born in the south so I have a really strange accent. People up here call me posh, but southerners think I sound northern XD I actually really hate the accent in my town...when I first moved here I thought my ears would bleed XD
I seee. xD Well, People think I have a military accent if I'm really speaking properly. Otherwise when I'm tired or stressed apparently to Americans I talk to I slip back INTO a proper sheffield accent, probably not as thick as the one I illustrated there. xD Confuses them to no end, which is why this kink was so appearing to me. xD
I've never lived anywhere else, so I wouldn't know. .m.

He coughed, uneasily.

“Dude, Japan, are you recording this ( ... )

I was half expecting America to retort back with a thick southern accent. It's just as unintelligible.

I love you and your fear of English pirates. Never change.
Dear authoranon,
I love you and your Yorkshire accent. Never change.
Great job! I was lol-ing the whole way through specially at France's reaction and Operation Capture Accent.
O-oh and I'm an American anglophile LOL. RP ftw.
