Why thank you for the correction kind sir; why there I was, thinking that the dialects spoken in Boise and Baton Rouge was distinguishable by more than just a softness and slowness of the pronounciation, like syllable weight, pitch, vocabulary, grammar, and whatnot. How silly of me.
Well, there we have it folks, Idahoese (Idahoican? Idahoise?) spoken at a drawl sounds just like Southern Comfort it would seem.

Graysons are a no brainer with a soft, southern accent.
But how about the Sillies? Honestly, never thought about them till now

Last I hear they was corn-belters, not from the bah-yoo.
So a soft north-by-northwestern accent.
IIRC, the textev is that Grayson speech is soft almost a drawl, which is much more of a southern accent than midwestern, even though the majority of Graysons originated from Idaho a thousand years before the current Honorverse time.
