i tend to use *smiles/laughs/dances the funky mamba etc* as i feel the he/she is implied by the "man in his twenties says:" but having the he/she is ok...not a fan of the *i step out in front of a falling tree* though because as the reader I'm like "noo i'm not!"
i'd like to use this opportunity to say how much I hate reading *wishes he could see his lover one last time* or similar...recently had the misfortune to be around someone who decided to emote a chars dreams and lets just say it was lucky for them that my char doesn't have a big ol' sword!
aaaand to add my own lil bit into the discussion, has anyone else toyed with the idea of leaving a kind of OOC hint into actions, like *laughs at the joke (OOC:If your char is sharp-minded they could notice that is it sarcastic laughter)* ...I've thought about it, but it looks pretty horrible so don't plan on trying it anytime soon
Lying in the depths of your imagination, worlds above and worlds below, you can tell a man from what he has to say
