i know people will shit on you for saying it, but it's true. it's awkward, it's even worse when it's at a meetup. 
>talking to someone
>smaller avatar butts in, usually mute
>does the cutesy act for attention of the person i'm talking to
>we both look down
>maybe the other person headpats but we end up ignoring them or they just stand there like they're a part of the group now
>keep seeing this at meetups because it's normalized
it's not a roleplay event, why do people do this on a fucking tuesday
