Tone Indicators, a Masterlist

Tone indicators are shorthand for words used to convey tone, which the Cambridge Dictionary defines as "a quality in the voice that expresses the speaker's feelings or thoughts". Tone can do so much to change the meaning and implications of a sentence. The intended use of tone indicators is in text, and they are prevalent on social media where miscommunication is rife, and posts and messages are often misinterpreted. Tone can be especially difficult to parse for neurodivergent people. This is not to say that neurotypical people never misunderstand tone through text, or even face-to-face, because they do — but that neurodivergent people may experience and interpret tone differently. They are simply paralinguistic signifiers used at the ends of statements to help readers fill in the blanks. They can also be called written shorthand for the poster’s (OP's) intent and emotion.

It's entirely too easy to use them, simply use them after, or even before, the sentence that you wish to clarify. "Can you explain this for me? /gen"

I'm going to make a masterlist of all the tone indicators I've seen so far, adding some that aren't in popular usage, some I personally use with my friends, some that I believe should exist, under the cut. In some cases, I've seen multiple versions of the tone indicator, in which case I've put the more popular one first (at least by what I've seen).

/p: platonic "i just want to hug you /p"

/gen: genuine question "are you okay with me talking right now? /gen"

Timelapse of WIP I did it (flash warning)

help I didn’t even realize 😭😭😭

sorry these are so late! Here’s a Viperwing and a Flamewing with a bonus Skywing!

edit: the Viperwing is NOT a Sandwing, it’s an early ancestor of them, same with Flamewings vs Skywings

awww!!! Ty!!! 100% the vibe I was going for; very huggable yet agile :))

Was redesigning SilkWings for fun and now I’m scared to color the sketch it looks too good—

I guess so 😂 I swear I have no idea what happened. Tbf I was jumping around trying to get to random places and the game had started to act a little buggy with all my bs, it all just came to a head when I was placed in the Leaderboard room with the Narration for the next room playing as I spawned in…

I uh… managed to soft lock myself (Games Ending)

Somehow the Narration for the “rate your experience” part triggered while I was in the room with the leaderboard (like before I’d left) and the door closed behind me upon entering the left door, but the next door was also closed, trapping me. And the pause menu is no longer red fsr. Huh.

Tui says an announcement regarding FanWing Fest is coming soon!

Got bored and made an evolution tree for Wings of Fire— currently working on (re-)designing each tribe (except the “Common Ancestor” one since it’s more of a vague collective of various dragons)

!!! Tag your extreme violence !!!

Finally, some good dissection of episode 5

I want to talk about this moment. I love episode 5 so much..its just have soooo many goodies in it.

So episode 4, my heart went out to Angel Dust.

Episode 5, my heart went out to Husker. We didn't witness Alastor physically abuse Husker like how Val was brutal to Angel. But Husker appeared down right more terrified than Angel was in the last episode. I'm guessing Angel just grown a little more use to so his reactions are not as extreme when fearing for his soul as its more a common occurrence.

But it was heart wrenching to see a level headed, sturdy rock, stoic guy just shake violently in fear. I just wanted to hold and soothe the giant winged cat.

To witness Alastor be two faced...well, that's completely unfair, we know he capable of such an act. But to turn so quickly against his own "employees" that I assume is one of his top favorites.

Husker was only trying to give a caution advice/warning to Alastor before slipping a slide remark to cause Alastor to snap.

It was really, really bad timing on Husker part.

Alastor was already was beyond irritated. Lucifer has officially got under Alastor skin. Then Mimsey showing up, which I'm pretty sure Alastor has suspect why she showed up, to clean up her mess. Bad timing again. Then Husker stupidly pushed Alastor last button by slipping the comment of being on a leash. Which, on top of who controls that leash, along with what went on during the 7 year absence that Lilith also had a 7 year absence (possible together)...I also wonder HOW Husker knew about that. I doubt Alastor would confide to anyone about making a deal like that. So wither Husker was present when Alastor made a deal that made him on a leash or Husker as a gambler and bartender is just that good at reading people and most situations.

Did anyone notice when Husker pulled Alastor away from the tour group, Alastor (sounded he was restraining his frustration in) "What is it?" had no radio-ness sound to his voice? AM I the only one notice that. Or am I just crazy that I somehow not hear it.?

Can we talk about that please?! Someone talk about that!

If that isn't a tell Alastor wasn't completely at the edge should had Husker run for the hills.

This episode had so many Alastor slip ups/losing composure and Im eating it up. Especially Alastor leaning down to the King of Hells face to say Fuck you. Not witty banter. Just a irritated curse out. It was delivered beautifully. It's been 3 nights and I'm still riding that high.

I really have no idea where I'm going with this post and I'm probably rambling, but I really enjoyed this episode.
