That's what I thought.

Yep I am liking him. I actually thought of this guy for Link but didn't know his name.

To be honest I don't know his name either but, who cares right?

I google researched it. His name is Tyler Hoechlin. Just for the purpose of more pictures ;)

I approve all of the above, haha. I had a slight obsession with Alex Pettifer for awhile, so he is perfection, obviously. For Ivyanne I am rather fond of Blake Lively.

tristan's personality reminds me of Jason's! But I still imagine Tristan to be foxier. MUCH foxier.

I love this picture of Blake Lively! She is a great fit for Ivyanne.

Isn't Tristan A yank? A French yank?

I thought I'd get us started off with Jensen Tackles, cough, cough, sigh, I mean Ackles. Jensen Ackles.

Approve-for either. S.K said on herfacebook that she could see him as either too.

I thought he just had an office in the US and Sydney. but then Bane is from Hawaii so I could be wrong! S.K??

If Tristan were Scottish . . .

Remind me to wear my kilt more often! BTW, I have a spare one that I can loan to your hubby.

Mine are mainly low-landers or from the central belt. One of them, however, is a Weegie. (Glaswegian)

Um...Tristan is TOTES American and Abby is right to point out-with a french background. He always spent more time in L.A and had Sven running the Sydney office-only starting hanging out in Australia because of Ivyanne.
Good to know I'm not overusing the expression 'His Californian Drawl' as often as I thought though ;)

I think it's just been so long since I read it I'm forgetting key details ;)

Compared to Aussies that do. They seem to slow down on vowels. Not to the extent of the westerners but pretty significant to us. We shorten ours. Like the word 'ours' you guys say it like we'd say 'hours' but we say 'ows'

So the "r" is kinda silent.

We silence a lot of letters. To save time I think :) One thing that bugs me is when some of our people use "me" instead of "my" for example "I grew up with me mum"

That's more working class British. It is used occasionally over here, though.

I hate our accent. 'And I hate 'me' instead of 'my' too Jen! People think I'm part british/part American because of how I enunciate my words sometimes and when I'm drunk a bit of lingering Kiwi comes out so I confuse some, lol-my husband teases me endlessly for saying 'Battery' instead of 'Batry' like 98% of Aussies but that's a writer's thing-I HAVE to say words how they're spelled. Even names, I have a friend who's name I saw in print before I heard it pronounced 'Kyra' . It's 'Kira' to be said (like Xanadu) But I call her 'Kye-ra' and 6 months later still get muddled up. But I see all words in my head as print as I'm saying them-inner subtitles. Very odd I'm told.
Other bad Aussie words are 'Youse' and 'Sheila' and 'Bin' instead of trash.

My pet peeve word is 'Ask.' I says 'Ahhsk.' But both Americans and Aussies have a tendency to switch letters so it's 'Akxsed.' Drives me mental!

*Sticks hand halfway in the air* umm I say bin but defiantly not You'se :)

Oh I say bin too. But since I went to the states and our tour guide pointed out that the word makes absolutely no sense I've been alternating with garbage and trash.
