Livewriting sleepytime bonus!

Okay, I’m almost certainly sleeping right now, so let’s give you something as a reward for not bothering me while I nap…

In the dustrunners world, there is a newscaster named Kana Choi. In Typhoon, we are introduced to the idea that she speaks with a strange unplaceable accent in English, and is fluent in French (at least to Yuri, who might not know the difference). So my question to you is this: where is Kana really from? The first person to post the correct answer wins a print copy of Typhoon.

I will warn you, though: this one is VERY hard to get right.

Stay tuned for more trivia later!

I’m totally thinking Belgium, because we speak Dutch, French and German, but all learn English in highschool :p

So accents would be undefinable indeed. Also, we still don’t have a government, so I’m assuming by 2038 Belgium doesn’t really exist anymore, and we’re all political refugees in Canada anyway.
Or well, that’s my plan

You don’t! Ha! No one guessed, so now you have to wait until the magic day when it makes itself know, and then you will think back on this day and say: “THAT GODDAMN CHEATER! THIS IS SO UNFAIR!”

She’s Japanese!

Last name’s more Chinese than Japanese, and also, FAIL.

She’s whatever Kani is!

Tamil? No.

Really, you can keep trying, but you’ll never, EVER guess.

You should let it sit in your skull for a few years, and then you’ll be properly pissed off when you see the truth.

To be frank, I don’t care. To be Anna, I care even less. So there.
