sometimes i wonder if i should start a numbering system for the avatars i make of the same characters

that way i never run out of variations on things like diego-brando,jpg

but then i end up naming a file something like diniego-brando.jpg and feel too satisfied by that terrible name to ever do it

Just wondering: what sorts of nonverbal tics do your characters have, if any?

Rubbing/scratching his neck.

Which has an extra loaded significance if you know why he does it. Sort of a chicken/egg thing.

Julie adjusts her hat and eyepatch a lot.

She doesn't need to.

She just does.

Yes.

Why wouldn't you.

Archer tends to look at the back of his left hand when being reflective.

Which makes sense if you've seen Shirou do the same thing.

oh wow it's not like that's an important part of writing or anything

everyone knows that dialogue alone is sufficient for portraying a character's state of mind

how incredibly lameass that anyone would go beyond that in a textual roleplaying medium

[up][up] ...

you're mocking me aren't you?

no what i mean is

i've never thought of any tics whatsoever for my characters

sure when i envision them i see them gesticulating and moving their arms around and making faces

but tics?

nah

i just don't think i've ever thought of that

so i find it odd that everyone of you has thought about it

it's bizarre

@Pancake: Mine is actually not only canon but an important plot point.

So there ha ha.
