The Emote Wishlist

[Airal]

I didn't know this was a thread or I would've posted my suggestion here in the first place :P

I was thinking a /perform emote for Bard would be an entertaining add. Let the bards loop their harp animation and play the songs that randomly play when they start up songs. Add a little ambiance to the world for the performers of the world.

We require interactive emotes, like a hug or a high five. They would have to be initiated by 2 people to work. Kinda like the portal 2 robots had their emotes.
I've been dying to give some people in my FC a hug, only, I can't. D:

[Rennah]

I really, really want a /faint or /fall, that gives us our animation for dying. We could really something to lay down - or maybe a general /lay? Either is fine, but we need SOMETHING.

That, and /changepose for our regular (not on a seat) /sit, and for our /doze on the bed. Female miqo'te lay in the most ridiculous way...can't we lay the way we do in the inn!? The animations already exist!

Seconding/thirding/fiftiething interactive emotes, too. /hug and anything similar would be really nice to have.

[Alavastre]

How about a /calamity emote.

You start to freak out. Your toon looks up into the air and starts running around in circles. And then a mini meteor shoots down from the sky and hits you in the back of the head and knocks you unconscious.

Or/and /chocomole emote. Where baby chocobo heads pop out of the ground and you grab a large mallet and knock then back into hell from which they came! I guess these would be evil baby chocobos.

Push ups!

[Zanmato]

/yawn /sigh /nod
(/yes is /nod, but /nod should share /yes)
/yarnplay (Miqo'te) - Rolls on his/her back, pawing with a yarnball.
/hug - Makes a hug emotion, stand close to another player and it will look like you're hugging.
/thumbsdown
/threaten - Motions to the neck/throat with the hand/paw, motioning decapitation.
/sleep - Character lies down and falls asleep.
/sleepchangepose - Changes pose from laying on the back to laying on the side/tummy.
/closeeyes - Like /shuteyes except keeps them closed indefinitely until you move.
/wash - Miqo'te cleans self like a cat, stroking paws over ears and so on.

Push ups!

Or /deepkneebends

You see NPCs doing both these exercises in various places, so the animations already exist.

[Babyfaced]

/yawn
/sigh
/hug
/joke (similar to WoW where each race and gender comes with their own witty or crappy banter)
/lay or /laydown
* /changepose for laying down
/hungry (grabbing stomach + tumm growl)
/play (similar to Zanmato's Miqo'te yarnplay idea, but have the emote change base on each race)
/facepalm
/taunt or /threaten, or both doing different things.
considering the mouths move when we talk is possible, I'd like to throw in the idea of a /talk emote where our bodies jump in on the talking action.
/exercise can rotate through different basic exercises like push ups, squats, high knees/running in place, sit ups, etc.
/whew can be an emote where the characters "wipes their sweat" off their forehead.
/what " ┐(.__.)┌"
/hmph crosses their arms temporarily + head turns to the side to look away in anger, or hands on their hips with an annoyed look.

We now have the change pose, but what other emotes do you think we should have? let the ideas fly!

Maybe some of the NPC's idle emotes. Or reactionary idle emotes to the weather. Like fanning yourself when it's hot, or shivering when it's cold.
