🍋Body Language - Limone the Human (They/Them)🍋

Their Intro Post / Some More Rambles

How do you walk in that thing?

Posting some of my answers to the dolgl servers PC Questionnaire :)

How do they hug?

(got a taaad long this time-)

Would your pc be a homie and pull a menstruation product out of someone? And how weird would they be about it?

(okay this was the last next to last question I had saved from the PC Questionnaires I answered for the pcverse - and it's a shitpost question; it definitely makes for a funny start haha)

🌻Dee:

Would do this for someone she cared for no problem-- Actually.. She would do this regardless of who asks- if they appeared genuine. She does not care enough to be put off or judgmental. Shes very nonchalant about it. Extremely nonplussed. Just don't get your hopes up.. It's not actually getting you any closer to her. (And dont try to initiate sex with her after, or you might end up bleeding from more than one place) - Not weird, potentially painful if you're a weirdo

💾Monroe:

Would not, unless they think it might be beneficial for them to help, so they can get closer to you. (yes, they would even trim their claws 🙄) In which case theyd be super chill about it. maybe a lil unsettling on account of their smiley-ness. But theyre calmly talking you through it and praising you at the end. Handing you an Ibu if you dont already have one. - Not that weird all in all (They also stopped breathing for a bit to avoid smelling blood. <hidden fox tf )

🍋Limone:

Does it nooooo problem<3 With a bright smile to boot. saying shit like: "dont worry, we're gonna get through this in a jiffy!! ♪(๑ᴖ◡ᴖ๑)♪" Probably an easy breezy experience! Lets just hope they dont start to salivate a lil from the smell of blood. (they might also suck the blood of their fingers before washing them. they would ensure you dont see it) - definitely the weirdest if you catch any of their, uh.. lets call them 'quirks' (FYI they ARE taking note of your period product preference, how you smell (& taste) when you menstruate and they are noting it all down later. Also their claws are retractable so- youre good)

Then there was also the crumbs in butter debate, which I could understand even less, but only because allowing crumbs in the butter when its left outside is crazy to me. Like yea, the crumbs could grow moldy too when its in the fridge. But lets be honest here. that feels less likely when refrigerated, than just. rawdogging it, outside, in a butter bell.

….Anyways. this made me think about what my Oc's domestic opinions might be.

Start to End, Left to Right: Dee, Monroe, Cherry, Limone, Berrie, Mo, Mellow

10. Share a sentence of dialogue from your OC that you think represents them well.

🌻Dee

“I hate this place- 'fucking rancid shithole, it deserves to be razed to the ground. No matter what you do, It twists you-- into this.. terrible fucking person thats only out for survival. I used to be—-” better, she wants to say. But can’t bring herself to. Not with how the town has syphoned away any and all progress she made back then, before she got here. Dee tries to blink away the stench of marigolds, the scorching heat of the summer sun burning her neck, black shirt glued to her sweaty back. Lukewarm sympathies mumbled to her in passing by people who couldnt care less. The foreboding noise of a car slowly approaching in the distance. To take her away away away, from the only place she ever considered her home. She feels sick. “I hate how anxious and stressed I am. There's- there’s ..SO.. much.. fucking anger boiling inside of me. It feels like its simmering just beneath the surface, consuming me from the inside out. Every minute, every second of the day. How long will it keep me warm before I burn out entirely? Fuck- I can barely remember how it was when I didn’t feel this way. When I didn’t have to struggle.. Nothing's ever been easy. But… I’m so… SO tired. She swallows, "…and I hate that- that I know— ..the truth is- I need it. I dont know how to go on without it. The constant stress, the fear and anger.. it- …it keeps me sharp. It helps me avoid mistakes. It’s safety. I’m afraid if I stop, I won’t ever get back up."

💾Monroe

"It’s hilarious really.. I had to prove my worth as a valuable investment for as long as i can remember.. And I’m good- No– I fucking excel at it. I can sell you a dream, become whatever you need. Make life worth living. ..Seriously, You would have trouble finding someone with even half my charisma and humility.

And yet… 

And yet I’m the one living on borrowed time, thanks to my dear old parent.  I suffer the misfortune of wasting my time- my best years, entertaining the most shallow, whiny, dull, selfishly inclined, controlling, mind numbingly boooring, ingrates known to exist. (They heave out 'booring' with the annoyed weariness of a long suffering kindergarten teacher, rolling their eyes with a theatricaly) "Being at their mercy, When I’m superior to almost everyone here; turgid cesspool of a city crawling with vapid lowlifes- Forced to become a bird in a cage that could be replaced at any second for any reason. Just one, potentially tiiiiny little misstep- (the clap of their hands is loud and painful. It sounds like a bear trap springing close.) 

and that’s it~ 

If i'm lucky my end will be quick (they laugh, deep and warm) …knowing my sperm donor that definitely won’t be the case..  Well, that or because they find some younger, dumber, bouncier bimbo to hang off their arm.

"Meanwhile unimportant idiots get to squander perfectly good lifes." (It’s only now that their smile slips entirely off their face. Replaced by cold bitterness as they look off somewhere into the distance) "..Or force themself where they don’t belong. Feckless, dirty little street mutt stealing what’s mine."

15. How does your OC take up space? What do they do with their hands when they talk, or how do they sit in chairs?

💾Monroe

Monroe takes up space boldly, with confidence and an effortless grace, like there’s a constant spotlight following them around. They drip swagger like a cold glass of water does condensation in the summer. They mastered the art of turning themself into a spectacle a long time ago. They’re a performance to be admired and an object to be desired. 

They have good posture but are prone to looking deliberately relaxed. Like they’re at home wherever they are. They’re constantly aware of how they look and how they should move to look their best- they don’t experience the world fully through their own eyes. They watch themself be watched. Everything they do is a show, performed to an invisible camera.

Even when they stand still they’re posing in a way. Weight resting on one leg, hand on their hip, the very picture of languid casualness.  It looks natural on them but definitely requires a good amount of poise- something that would have to be learned. 

Their body language is a walking contradiction: They gesture when they talk, but with the languid elegance of someone doing ballet; flawless control appearing like the epitome of understated casualness. They make it look easy and natural. All leisure, compared to Limone who gestures with an overenthusiastic frantic-ness.

Chairs, much like everything else, is another stage to perform on. The way they sit depends on the setting. They will always look confident, with a languidness about them like they might be sitting on a throne, not a chair or park bench. but when they’re on the job it’s a lot more proper. 

Meanwhile with Dee or anywhere else they are prone to sprawling. Can’t sit normal for the life of them. An almost sultry lean, prone to crossing their legs or spreading them like a whore.  Dee's & Limones answer for 15 can be found here

What are/would your PCs thoughts on their own title be?

🌻Dee the Defiant:

"the Defiant" Dee looks at the title idly floating over her head and pauses. … it’s not…… untrue. It’s not even necessarily bad.. Probably accurate too- She can barely remember a time where she hadn’t struggled, thrashed and fought tooth and nail in some way (besides with Ruth of course..). it’s just.. is that really all she is? Is that really the only quality she possesses?

…….She’s tired.

💾Monroe the Moribund:

"Moribund" even Monroe had to go dig out an old dusty tome to look up that particular definition. And goodie what a definition it is. Hilarious how Macabre that title is- and blunt too- Look at the potentially dead guy walking everybody- Come and clap! They chuckle. It's very likely that its true. It’s not like they weren’t aware of it either. They’ve known for a while now that they have a rapidly approaching expiration date. At one point they would run out of "charitable patrons". It was more a question of when.

Oh well, Tragic heroes are at least the most beloved they suppose. Might as well enjoy life to the fullest while they can.

🍋Limone the Human:

(tw gore/self-harm/mutilation)

"Limone the Human" floats above their head. Clear as day. It made them stop, right in front of a storefront, the Outfit they had been initially staring at, totally forgotten. Some unlucky passersby crashing into them and cursing. They hadn't budged an inch.

Huh. Beneath their bangs their eyebrows scrunch up in irritated confusion. their ever present smile sliding right of their face. Washed away like letters in the sand.

……..They should … be happy. Their humanity(?) is being acknowledged. ……But.. there’s a bitter feeling in their chest- the kind that makes them want to gauge their insides out. Meticulously snapping each Rib off, one by one. Digging around in their chest until the dull comfort of pain drowned out this terrible, muddy feeling.

They can’t help but feel that this was not meant in earnest.

stumbles back after... what feels like a month ...uh ..hi... sorry this took so fucking long... i cant stfu whoops... > (Askgame)

15. How does your OC take up space? What do they do with their hands when they talk, or how do they sit in chairs?

🌻Dee:

Dee takes up space. But less because she wants to and more because she just…  sticks out, like a sore thumb. She doesn’t mean to and honestly dislikes how shes unable to completely fade into the background most of the time.

I think she just has a *presence*, unfortunately. Just don’t mistake her self-restraint for timidness. She’s deliberately contained herself within the space she needs to take up, so do not fucking cross it.

She doesn’t gesture much anymore- she used to, back when she was a kid. Fueled by enthusiasm and plenty of anxious ticks. They sometimes resurface during emotional confrontations: picking at her nails, scratching her fingers raw, bouncing her leg a mile a minute and chewing up the inside of her mouth until it’s bloody since pain grounds her.

Nowadays she’s very stoic and reserved. Nobody can tell you’re an anxious mess when you show no sign of it. Not on your face, not in your body language. Perfectly restrained and repressed. If she does gesture it’s probably more with her head or body, than her hands (like nodding nodding in someone’s direction instead of pointing at them). It’s all in the micro expressions. Head tilts, slow blinks, shoulder movement and eyebrow twitches.

When she sits she either leans back, heavy against the chair, with her hands buried in her cardigan, legs wide but not spread, or leaning heavily on top of her thighs, glowering at you. 

🍋Limone:

I’ve kinda already went in on this on their body language post (based on one of the servers pc questionnaires), so you can check that one out as well but- 

Limone is very animated. They go from unnatural stillness to a flurry of motion. Fidgeting with their hands or objects, tapping their feet, drumming rhythms into their thighs or chest, checking their claws nails, playing with their hair or fiddling with their sunglasses. That persists when talking; they gesture and fidget a lot, always in motion- unless they’re listening. Then they’re spellbound enough that they hyperfocus on you, hanging of your lips listening to you talk with fascination, unconsciously leaning forward to get as close as possible. Limone usually sits pretty straight. Elegant with unnaturally good posture, back not even touching the backrest. It’s only when they’re sulking or annoyed that they might slouch. Slumping in the chair, like someone melting.

I’d say they don’t go out of their way to take up space, they just do. It’s not conscious but natural, like breathing for a human. They carry themself with effortless confidence. Perfectly at home no matter where they are. Oh- This is a restricted area? Only for personnel or certain clientele- They shouldn’t be here? Well.. how would you know, when they walk and talk with the confidence of someone who has never encountered a locked door in their entire life. They’re *always* in the right place because they genuinely think they are.

Catch them in your house unannounced and you might think, you forgot you invited them over. wait… do you even know them?

18. If they can or would drive, what would their car be like?

Oh god.. I’m like the worst person to ask when it comes to cars… I can’t drive (and neither do most of my Ocs) and barely have opinions on cars unless they have really fun and funky designs.. ig i prefer vintage cars if anything? Cause the designs more fun.

🌻Dee can’t drive lol. Uh.. maybe a fun or cute car like lupins fiat 500? Man… idk.. I can’t really imagine her with a vehicle. Would want smth yellow me thinks. If she could drive she would probably prefer cars just because they’re handier than bikes. 🤍Monroe, doesn’t have a license but I feel like they know how to drive. They Probably learned way too early because they were a rich lil brat. Convinced someone they were mooching off of at the time to teach them without their parents knowing, Would probably get a vintage car, Something that’s definitely built more for style and pleasure than utility.
