    All my characters seem to do over-the-top and extremely corny flirting which abruptly becomes absolute terror if anyone ever flirts back.

    Using the word ‘before’ in nearly every single pose (eg: ‘The Sammich nervously butters its outsides, before carefully sliding itself into the toaster.’)

    Using the word moment way too much (after a moment, takes a moment, The Sammich momentarily does a thing, there’s a momentary thing before)

    Lips ‘quirking’ upwards. I don’t know why that’s the only word I ever seem to use to describe that.

    Never actually doing any RP because I’m too anxious to ask for any (even from my friends).

      • @Pyrephox I also have been told I can be easily picked out by my PBs (maybe by the same person) which is mostly true

      Somebody told me this once but it was before they tried to guess which character I was playing on a MU without any prompting from me, and they were wrong. WRONG.

      @Third-Eye I’d say you have a pretty eclectic taste in characters.

        Wait, these are all my tells too (not -quite- so much the first one, but the others). Either we’re clones, or they might not be the tells that we think they are.

          I have a real problem with playing characters that are some sort of deadly (swords or guns, w/e the setting) but also whimsical in some way that’s supposed to be funny, weird, wholesome, etc. Having typed this, I now realize my tell is characters that fit into the MCU.

          Ask me about professional wrestling.

            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.

            Okay, I also do the first four of these things enough that I’m wondering if you and I escaped from the same lab.

            I woke up feeling so good, I think I’d better call in sick/ I need a personal trainer to help me hold my drink
            I plan to be spontaneous next time we meet/I’m putting off procrastinating until next week
            I’ll get onto it when I give a shit

                    I am not remotely self-aware enough to know what mine are. I can’t recognize anyone else by RP alone, either. No thoughts, just vibes.

                    as previously stated, good day.

                      Playing my package-deal: one soft-natured, gentle character… followed by a vulgar honey-badger of an alt. 🙂

                        My tell is probably making fun of myself and my characters in my own poses.

                        This might be why I’m having a hard time RPing lately.

                          I’m sure I have a lot, I just don’t know them. Which is fine. I spell out ‘okay’. All the four letters. It has four letters damnit.

                            I suspect my tell is I use too many commas. Like, they’re grammatically correct, but I use too damn many of them.

                                  I have no tells. Picking me out is impossible. I may be there right now, RPing with you.

                                  You wouldn’t know it.

                                  I’m that good.
