It depends on how many such slip-ups occur. I am an American who commonly writes British characters, and while I know I make some mistakes, I work hard to write them IN CHARACTER which means including their vocab, mannerisms, behaviors, etc. I expect the same from British writers writing American characters. If it seems like NO effort was made, then I am not going to enjoy or read that fic.

Yeah I'm okay with most slip-ups but even if you think most Americans have tea and biscuits, I would think it would strike you as OOC for (as an example) the Winchesters, who've gone 13 seasons without ever mentioning it, to casually sit down for high tea.

has anyone written a fic where the Winchesters have to stay at a really fancy B&B that has high tea every day

because i'd read that

Not that I know of, but Astolat wrote a Show/Harry Potter xover that was adorable and had a bit of 'high tea' stuff in it.

High tea is very definitely not the same as tea and biscuits. The average British person is not in the habit of having high tea (and may not be entirely sure what it is - other than it's more than a cuppa and a digestive).

DA - hardly the point of that comment, but OK.
