What's your tell?
-
Em dashes, “a beat,” describing small changes in body language, “I mean,” characters with tactical knowledge/background, characters with sports knowledge/background, and answering OOC questions on channels.

@Roadspike
I’m addicted to “I mean” as a vocal tic to the point where I’ve tried to stop, but idk if it’s successful. -
Robert Sheehan is my tell.
It’s not always me. But it is often me.
-
Whew, this is a tough one. Hmm. Maybe…
A) My ESL still shines through, and there are certain things that I can never stop spelling a certain way. I use a mix of British and American spelling (it’s “colour” not “color”, but it’s also “truck” instead of “lorry”), but I also misspell a lot, or use weird grammar. For years I would also smash colors together a la “whitepink”, “greyblue” etc, because that’s how we do in my native language.B) My OOC behavior. I am very chatty, very friendly, use and abuse smileys from to ^_^ without shame.
C) I seem to have fallen into a pattern of making either beautiful evil or monstrous good: I love noir femme fatales as well as characters that look innocuous and harmless but are actually completely vile or amoral, but I also love making characters that look terrifying or grotesque but are actually super kind.

I have no idea what my tell might be! The fact that I just tell everyone who I am! haha. I’m sure there’s some posing styles that make it obvious, but most recently people who knew me figured out who I was because of wiki usernames.

The last few times I thought I was quietly stepping back onto a game a couple people seemed to immediately know, lol, so I must have one??? But I’d just be guessing as to what it is.
Aside from being a complete goober OOC.
-
I refuse to use paragraphs. Also I use ‘as if’ way way too often.

Something like, Wizz spin Jumpscare!
I don’t know who it is, but someone does that, and I see you, whoever you are. And I like what you’re spinning.

Shit, I use this far too often in OOC talk, less IC.
-
I’m double posting, because I noticed this as I was finishing a pose. I realize that my characters(not all depending)often grin so fucking much that I’m wondering if I’m just playing someone with behavioral problems.

@Jumpscare said in What's your tell?:
[…] turgid […]
I almost want to take this as a challenge to use turgid in a non-smut situation, but I am teh laze.
My tells, uh… much as I want it to be amazing lewds because I have a brand… it’s probably fake pretendy words that sortaish make sense, to a degree.
Endless run-on sentences and problematic punctuation; I use them more for the vibe than how they should actually work.
If I decide to venture into purple prose, it comes across more like an SNL skit than actual writing, which… could be an improvement of other peoples’ purple prose?
-
I still abuse ellipses. My tells are more OOC though, like spreadsheets and guides. I can’t help myself!
Once someone asked if I was me because I was being helpful/nice and that was the coolest thing ever
Also ALLCAPS a lot. A LOT
-
I know I have them (though there have been many times where apparently even people who know me well didn’t realize an alt was mine, that happened quite a few times with Edris, but I wonder if perhaps gender is involved there), but I don’t know what they are. I’m pretty sure most of my tells are OOC chatting.

That’s not me just for the record (unless I’m sleep-MU*ing?!), but they’re def channeling my spirit!!

I once tried to confess who I was to @dvoraen and he told me he’d figured it out months earlier from me talking on channels lol
-
Pretty sure I have OOC tells like being shouty and having a Napoleon complex.

being knowledgeable about science things

I have no idea what my tells are and trying to figure them out makes me nauseous with embarrassment so I’ll just live with the mystery.

oh, here’s a pretty big one – my standard greeting is usually “SUP NERDS” or some variant.
