Nah, Hagrids not a cockney. Hes got more of a Yorkshire accent. If anyones seen "Love Actually", the girl who falls in love with Hugh Grant has a strong cockney accent. (She used to be in a soap we have over here called "Eastenders", set in the East End of London).

I find it strange that Pocket speaks with a British accent. The only person I know who speaks with one is my mum, whose accent is sort of part Canadian, mostly British. Pocket's is similar. So I'm not really sure if it's posh or cockney. And if he's angry or indignant or something, I find his voice becomes more clear, which is when the accent becomes more marked.
As for the animated/telepathic thing, Pocket's always been very animated. And seeing as he spends a good amount of time in his snow leopard form, I have a pretty good idea of what talking snow leopards look like! His talking dormouse form looks pretty funny too. I think the only form of his that he doesn't talk in ( or talks very little ) would be Renamon. And yeah, maybe Disney movies are to blame. I LOVE the Lion King! ^^' Its not unlike Pocket to stand up and lean against something, which is what he's doing right now.

I didn't vote because it's both for us. Panaka does talk with his mouth moving, but it's usually only when he's being sarcastic. I don't know why. *shrug* I guess it could be because he likes to pull off other facial expressions while he's talking. Like, it's kind of hard to maintain a big, toothily wolfish grin while he's making some weird comment.
By the way, I just wanted to add that the way I'd describe posh is like the "I say old chap, absolutely frightful! Jolly good show, spiffing!" type talk that you get in movies. Except no-one actually DOES speak like that, but that's the accent.

Hey everyone! Today, Lass felt like a change, and started talking non-telepathically. I've been trying to figure out what kind of accent shei has, because I was sure I'd heard it somewhere. I've just realized that her accent is almost exactly the same as Enya's!

ENYA!!!! Wei love her music. Rano likes singing to it, even if he cannot understand what she is saying.

Enigma is awesome too. Rano doesn't like it as much as Enya, but he still likes it ok.

I love cockney accents, accents in general actually. I love immitating cockney accents and I can actually do it pretty well. I'm not sure what kind of accent Kir has, but it's definitely a British one (and I'm not sure why, but that's the only way I can hear him speak). He doesn't have a very strong cockney accent but it's definitely there. Is anyone else as weird as me?

Nope. My mom's Brittish, as is all of my family, so I'm used to that kind of accent......Tyb's is almost an Australian accent, crazy as it sounds. He's just funky and weird, like me. Yay.

Except no-one actually DOES speak like that, but that's the accent. Pocket sometimes speaks like that. ^^' He was doing it just yesterday. He's good at it too. "Good show, old chap. Absolutely corking, wot, wot!" I blame this on Brian Jacques's Redwall series, where all the hares speak like that.

Ha ha, I remember reading the Redwall books to my cousin a couple of years ago and I had to do all the accents.My attempted version of the moles and shrews were pretty funny...
