When I do see some with this kind of passing interest I'll try to stretch out a bit and make him glance around and notice or something, but I'm also very bad at knowing how to draw people in. I'm always totally open to anyone waltzing up and joining in or interrupting or any of that, but maybe I'm just horrid at leaving openings.(11-14-2013, 11:53 AM)shotgunbadger Wrote: I usually do the emote thing too. If I hear something interesting going on I'll most likely stop and do some "Zutoto raises a brow and pauses, looking over at (whoever)" thing and if they wanna engage that's cool, and if not no biggie.
The problem with this is, such a passive emote doesn't give the characters anything to RP off of. They may not react to your character's idle arching of brow and vague look, but that doesn't mean they aren't open to interacting with your character.
If you wanna get involved with a scene you see, you've gotta be proactive - especially ICly, but OOCly can help as well.
