YOU MENTIONED BOJANGLES!! IM SO PROUD THANK YOU FOR TGE REAL NC REPRESENTATION
WHY YES OF COURSE! I am always terrified of accidentally being insensitive (ocd tendencies who? where?) so I have kept NOTES from all the NC peeps sending me the lore bc I want to make it believable.
Trust that if you send me NC facts, I will keep them stashed away with my story notes bc I like to learn and also not write about stuff I don't know at all lol.
#Like even calling her grandparents meemaw and peepaw was a bit on the nose for me at first#despite it being a thing americans call their grandparents#(according to what I could find)#which they don't do at all where I'm from#like there's no cute names for them#it's just 'father's mother' ie. farmor or 'mother's mother' ie. mormor and so on#like our system is cute too but meemaw and peepaw is on another level and **mawmaw!!**#shout out to my mawmaws out there#asks and answers#sleep deprivation has reached the Free Tedtalk stage#also the Norwegian stuff for Matthias#though I feel a bit more informed with him bc Norwegians are closer to me geographically and culturally#We just name our things differently#like the cookies mentioned are 'sirup snipper' and they're pretty much brunkager but slightly to the left? I think?#Cheerwine and Bojangles I don't have the equivalent to#maybe red soda?#we have a soda here called just#red soda#it's very very red#I think it's supposed to taste like raspberry#but it just tastes red and like sugar - like you'll feel your bones vibrate levels of sugar#fun fact my friend told me; In HOO Dakota drinks Red Soda™ in the Danish translation bc we don't have Kool-Aid#I'm not actually sure I fully understand the point of Kool-Aid#I understand it's a powder#that you mix with water#to get#✨flavored water#but then you also mix in sugar...yourself?#but why didn't they include that in the packet?#like we have grenadine and ribena and stuff here
