I'm more bothered by the fact that the Faeling can just force the other player to pick them up and shoulder them. No nonconsensual emotes please.

They should add a leghump emote, then.


Edit: buymegum emote. Where you force the other person to spend a single gold and buy you gum.

You just know somebody's gonna make an alias to do that 100000 times in a row.

The likelyhood that that someone is Casilu is also high. *sagenod*

Uhhhh... where'd you get that from? It's the emote being performed by a larger person on a smaller person, not a larger person being forced to do anything. Essentially, there would be two versions - one for a smaller person to perform on a larger one and one for a larger to perform on a smaller one. *shrugs*

For this one you're probably better off doing the custom emotes.

Let's try this one again, for Loboshigaru and Furrikin. (And any other applicable races.)

SHAKEFUR
(Untargeted emote, not posed)

First person, untargeted: You energetically shake yourself from head to tail, stopping when you are statisfied that you have dislodged anything that was stuck in your fur.
Third person, untargeted: Denust energetically shakes his entire body from head to tail, until he abruptly stops with a satisfied look on his face.

Someone play with it if it doesn't look right.



EDIT: Also, this one for Loboshigaru, which is actually a correction of the weird HOWL. For whatever reason, first person untargeted howl is "howling in pain" but third person targeted is "howls like a wolf" which is inconsistent and a bit strange.

WOLFHOWL

(Targetable, not posed)

First person, untargeted: Moved by some primal instinct within you, you tilt your head back and sing out a long, wistful howl.
Third person, untargeted: As if seized by some sudden urge, Otem tilts his head back and sings a long, wistful howl.

First person, targeted: You tilt your head back and howl like a wolf at Avechna, the Avenger.
Third person, targeted: Gadritan tilts his head back and howls like a wolf at you.
Third person, observer: Gadritan tilts his head back and howls like a wolf at Avechna, the Avenger.

I'll try to think of something more creative for the targeted bit. Maybe I'll have it later tomorrow.

I'd like a wingflare/wingopen/wingdisplay:
You snap your wings out to their full span in an impressive display.
With a sudden snap, Tulemrah flares her wings, displaying them to their full span.

I'm not the best at writing these things, so feel free to mess with it.

squee emote

You tightly hug your body in excitement and cry out "Squee!"

You watch Bob tightly hug his body in excitement and cry out "Squee!"

Targeted?

You creep up and hug *tar tightly and cry out "Squee!"
You watch bob creep up to Estarra, hugging her tightly and crying out "Squee!"

By popular demand, a ROARAT emote has been added!

Snipped.

Could we get some way to sit down (other than lotus, which I adore but which isn't for everyone) without sprawling on the ground like there was a cunningly-placed banana peel involved? Sometimes you either don't have or want to use furniture and I feel like a goon if I'm just generically prone.

I desire a KICKROCK emote.

1st:
Slumping in disappointment, you dejectedly kick a rock to the wayside.

1st Targetted:
Slumping in disappointment at Kregarn, you dejectedly kick a rock to the wayside.

3rd:
With a slump of her shoulders, Svorai dejectedly kicks a rock to the wayside.

3rd Targetted:
With a despondent glance at , Svorai dejectedly kicks a rock to the wayside

I'm personally bothered by the fact that the 'laugh' emote is by default deep and rumbling. It's gonna get used a lot, and I think it's kinda lame that all the characters end up with these deep and rumbling laughs, even if it doesn't suit them. I really don't imagine Cadfael having that sort of laugh.

Also, the grin emote - it's always mischieviously. That bothers me too, though a lot less, but I don't really think it adds much to have the modifier there.

I completely agree, because on the female end it's trillingly melodic. Laughing as a female illithoid is nonsensical.

There are many different 'laugh' emotes besides the plain laugh! Why not play with them and find the one you think is best for your character?

I still want that kickrock emote.

See, if we had EMLIST and EMSHOW like Aetolia, people wouldn't have to ask what emotes exist - they could look it up themselves!

EMLIST exists in EMOTIONLIST. EMSHOW... We'll see!

Iosai:

What's EMSHOW?
