The emotes BOP, COLDSTARE, and WISTFUL have been recently added, if you have not yet noticed.
I am taking suggestions for new general emotes. Remember to include:
- first person untargetted
- third person untargetted
- first person targetted
- second person targetted (what the receiver of the emote sees)
- third person targetted (what a witness sees)
- untargetted pose (if there is one)
- targetted pose (if there is one)
Happy writing!

Linwe seems to think you're an out-of-tune instrument.
(Obviously you should never use this targetted at a person, only at an instrument, which is why the last one is so silly -- it's just an error message of some sort. It'd be better if it could be coded to be different if used on a person vs. an object, of course.)

Since we've lost PLAY PRACTICE as even something to do for atmosphere, we need this even more than before. As well as the following which is also intended to target your instrument:
PLAYTUNE
You play a simple but lovely tune.
Ialie plays a simple but lovely tune.
You play a simple but lovely tune on a rainbow-decorated viola of pale wood.

If we get these, maybe I'll make a few more to play specific kinds of music (lively jig, mournful dirge, romantic ballad, gentle strumming, energetic discord, rhythmic chanting/drumming, etc.).

I know this has been asked before but I was hoping it had been overlooked.
Could there possibly be added a pose emote for Stars?
"Viravain is here, watching the heavens overhead."

Unfortunately, a pose can't be added for STARS easily.

Yes! We need another holding hands sort of emote aside from HOLDHANDS, which is a little too shy for all purposes. I'd also love to see some sort of affectionate gesture that can be used on children, but isn't too cutesy, sort of like RUFFLE. Maybe a scaled-down cheek-pinching or something. I have to think on it.

Not saying we don't need that, but have you tried GENTLEHANDS?
Lenalith2007-10-06 12:26:51
Yeah, I was just thinking about that. HANDSQUEEZE probably shouldn't be a two-person pose, seeing as the other two-person emotes aren't continuous actions.

Yeah. This strikes me as like... something you do in preparation for telling someone something serious or very mushy. Standing before them and drawing both of their hands into yours. I was hoping for something more fleetingly affectionate.
Lenalith2007-10-09 06:01:12
Yeah, a brief expression of affection or reassurance was what I was going for.

Just a few Lucidian Emote suggestions; we have none apparently.
Also, one Aquamancy emote; Reflect isn't the most interesting!
Alter them as much as you wish to include them; i'm not the most talented writer.
Lucidian Emotes:
---LIGHTSHOW--- (( Only available in the day/in a light room ))
- Moving carefully, but deliberately, you use your crystalline body to
send a dazzling display of lights into the room.
- Brynn begins to move his crystalline body around, sending a dazzling
display of lights into the room.
---GLOW--- (Alternative: GLOW *colour*) (( Only available at night/in
the dark
))
*I don't know if you can do this one, or if it goes against some idea of
what a Lucidian is
- Closing your eyes, you allow your mind to calm, and feel a glow begin
to appear within you.
- Brynn closes his eyes, and as the crystal surface of his face appears
to soften, a deep blue(Alternative: *colour*) appears at the very center
of his body.
---IMAGE *short name*--- (( Only available in light )) (( Name no longer
than
~30 characters )) (( Pose ))
- Streching out both your arms in front of you, you allow light to flow
through them, presenting an image of *short name* onto the floor
- Brynn raises his hands in front of him, appearing to concentrate hard,
ultimately sending an image of *short name* onto the floor.
*looking in room|at character / entering room*
- Brynn is standing with his arms raised in front of him, frowning in
concentration.
- There is an image of *short name* on the floor.
---COVERPEEK or COVERPEEK *name*---
- You quickly raise your hands to your eyes in shock, but continue to
peer out through your hands.
- You quickly raise your hands to your eyes in shock, but continue to
peer out through your hands at *name*.
- Brynn quickly raises his hands to his eyes looking shocked, but you
notice that he continues to peer out through his hands.
- Brynn quickly raises his hands to his eyes looking shocked, but you
notice that he continues to peer out through his hands at *name*.
- Brynn quickly raises his hands to his eyes looking shocked, but you
notice that he continues to peer out through his hands at you.
Aquamancy Emote:
--- WATERAPPLE ---
- In boredom, you draw water from the air, and form it into the shape of
an apple, and begin to eat at it slowly.
- Brynn, looking extremely bored, opens his palm, as a collection of
water begins to form in his hand, eventually becoming an opaque apple of
water, which he then begins to eat slowly.
Thanks ^^

I know some of them are a tad flashy and such; but I so rarely see other Lucidians I can only assume we are a scarce race! Be good to have a few perks!
Besides; if the other races want some flashy emotes, then come up with them and suggest them!
I can only hope at least one of them goes through! ^^

I'm not sure if there already is an emote like this, but it can't hurt just to suggest one. Especially since it's so simple, but I find myself custom-emoting it all the time.

Oh, another thing that would be nice (Don't know if it exists) but some way to actually sit on the floor.
Like not, the current Sit command, because anyone that enters sees you "Sprawled on the floor".
Be nicer if they could enter to see you "Sitting on the floor"
Meh, i'm just pedantic, I guess.
