Miqo'te Male Emote: 'Defending' with Hands in a Cat-like Manner...?

I can't seem to find what emote does this, but it looks like you're about to get hit, you defend yourself, and you put your hands up in front of you in a very cat-like manner ... hands curled outward, one higher than the other. Almost like you're about to get hit.

I wish I could share a screenshot, but this has only happened during a couple of crafting cut scenes, namely an early Goldsmith scene, and another as a Leatherworker. They're unviewable in The Unending Journey. I thought it was an emote you can do normally, and the precise pose actually fits the race quite well. I can't seem to find it. Any ideas?

I've always wondered this.

It sure as hell isn't in the emotes list.

Not certain, but try /shocked

I went through every one of the emotes in the list when I first saw this back in beta and against after it was released and it's nowhere to be found. It's a cutscene only emote apparently and I'm disappointed because it's my favorite.

I think it's a unique emote, which makes me a sad kitteh.

Kitties of the world, unite! Rise up against our emotive oppressors! Raise your paws! Defend yourselves! Okay, we can't, except in specific cut-scenes...

Can someone link a video or image of this, possibly?

Agreed. I have no idea what emote people are talking about, but it sounds adorable. I WANT IT.

I've only seen my character do it during those little cutscenes after you finish off a Crafting Quest. I know it was in the Carpentry quests (because I just got done with that so it's fresh in my mind). But it's pretty much what the female miqotes do in their scared emotes I think? It's just curling of the hands to look like paws and a little jump or a lean backwards? It's NOT in the emotes for male miqotes and it always makes me sad I can't do it on command! SE stop teasing and let us have it too! ;_;
